Now I'm using Athlon XP 2400+, stock speed, undervolted to 1.55v from default 1.65v

I've used it at 2.18 GHz @ 1.75 for a while.

I am thinking it's time to upgrade.
 
You're kidding right?? You have an A64 3200+ and you are thinking about upgrading?? You have like 16 computers listed, and you are getting another one?? NO FAIR !!!
 
I doubt that it can do folding, but it wouldn't surprise me if it could :) wooh.. looots of games were availible, there are tons of websites hosting games for the emulators currently availible.

The last thing I heard from the c64 world was someone the did 3D graphics on it, using dynamic lightning too :evil:

I gave SuperPCMart over $500 of my dollars for a preorder, that's how I got it. They had 9 for sale as of yesterday I even posted about it. Check em out see if there are any left. I'm serious, best card I ever owned.

Shameless really but it's mind over matter. I don't mind and it don't matter.
The real official USMC version is "It's mind over matter. I don't mind, you don't matter".

p.s. The USMC version is the only version! All others are cheap imitations! 😛 :)
 
Pulease, dont leave such a large target. With so many of them doing their part overseas, I wont even ask if you think that colectively they might be able to muster a mind. See what I mean?

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, what you are trying to say, so I'm guessing you did not understand my post.

I am NOT insulting anyone!!!!!

Whenever someone says "It is a mind over matter" The proper response, as I learned in the USMC is "I don't mind, you don't matter!" Drill instructors wore that phrase out!

For future reference:

Everything I say is to be taken as a tongue in cheek/sarcastic/humorous comment. There are exceptions to the rule. If I'm asking/requesting help, then I'm being serious. If I'm responding to a request for help, then I'm being serious.

It depends if it is a XMS LL (low latency) or not. LL PC3200 can handle those timings, but say XMS PC4000, no way.

Mine is the PC4000, so what you said makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up, its been bugging me for some time. The Corsair website says that the settings are 3-4-4-8, so I guess that my numbers are low considering this. Whats your opinion on the faster DDR sticks that have come out? Is there much for me to gain by getting DDR that is faster than my PC4000?
 
I have the XMS pro series PC4000, and also TwinX PC3200LL. Huge difference on the timings they can run. Also, it affected ability to use Gaming enhancement on an IS7 (PC4000 can't use it at all, the PC3200LL could run the top setting called F1). If you are running default DDR400 speeds, the low latency ram is far better. If you are overclocking and want to keep the mem/fsb to a 1:1 ratio, then you need the PC4000. I just bought the PC4000 for overclocking and it's good for that. But I was dissappointed on how it limited my bios tweaks so much at DDR400 speeds. I wish I had that Crucial Ballistics memory that seems to be able to handle both well (aggressive timings at DDR400, but also OC to DDR500)

Anyway, no need to run your ram higher than 2.7v UNLESS you are trying to get stable at high mem/fsb speeds(overclocking). Pumping 2.9v or more into that PC4000 of yours is not going to help it run 2-2-2-5 timings, but could kill the ram if you push it too high. If 2.7v is stable, leave it there. If you are trying to find the highest speed your mem can run at, then boost it to 2.8v when needed.

Those things are soooo l337!
It just needs a better pump(which can be replaced) and a 120mm on top of it to enhance cooling.
------------------------------------------------
I'm only using it to cool the cpu so its adiquate.
Besides there's so much water in it (1.5 gallons)it takes 2 hours just to get to 36C with like 72F (ambient)
I was thinking about replacing the pump
But then i gotta change the tubes.
And i'm just to lazy to get a fan
I have the xtra low lattency corsair pro memmoy
I have the memmory at 2.75
