Just thought I'd pose a question here.
I recently purchased an 8KDA3J and an Athlon 3400+. It seems that I may
have a voltage problem, but I am not sure. I've returned the motherboard
once already thinking the problem was there, but apparently not.The
components installed are:... at least when running properly.
Antec TruPower 550W
AMD 64 3400+ w/CPU Fan
2X 512M Crucial PC3200
ATI 9700Pro
WD 80GB HDD
Phillips CD-RW
120MM Case Fan
The problems happed when I install the rest of the components I have.
SB Audigy2 ZS
WD 250GB HDD
DVD-ROM Drive
Hauppauge WinTV PCI
With the mainboard that I returned I thought that the problem was in the
onboard IDE controllers. However, the problems I am having now lead me to
believe that it is a voltage problem.
Does the AMD 64 draw so much power that it would cause problems? I had the
exact same setup before except with an XP 2000+ CPU and an 8RDA3 mainboard,
the only things that have change are the CPU and the mainboard.
Thanks for any help... it is appreciated.
