I have an old P4 system and would like to get it working again. I have 2 CPU options and would like to know which one is better. The first is a 3.0ghz/1Mb cache and the second is 3.5ghz/512. Which one should I use? The system will be used for watching videos on VLC/youtube and surfing the web...

Many people had this problem but I cannot find the solution. Anyone know? I tried to use different memory, a video card, and even a new power supply. Same results, and I even tried taking the mother board battery out and back in. The computer just will not turn on. Check out my other post in a...

Currently I am reactivating a computer whose CPU went out. I had it replaced but just have drug my feet on getting it functional again. I noted in my bios settings that I have a choice of AGP ON Board or PCI for my video setting. I have an older model AMD video card right now, it is a Radeon...

Hello all! It's time for a small, modest upgrade. My rig from 2004 is finally given up the ghost. Question is this, I am going to be going with an AMD X3 435 chip, and looking to pair it with a board. To keep it slightly future proof I want to do a 2 x PCI Express 16x slot motherboard, but have...

I was wondering if someone could explain P4's bus speed. I have a 2.4 533Mhz P4. I would like to over clock it but not sure where my FSB should be at normal speed. If I have DDR400 RAM, its running at 200Mhz right. So does that mean my processor is actually underclocked because the FSB is set at...

Okay, so I've posted twice before this about building my first computer. First I stated I wanted a decent gaming computer for $625 and then in a second thread I realized I would have to increase by budget to $1000 for what I want. This would mean I would have to save for another 2-3months...
