Last message on previous page: I'm kinda thinkin the next post we'll see from the OP will go as following:
"Okay....I just put my new computer...you know...the one that had the HSF that fell off twice....well anyway...I just put it into a space shuttle and when I send the shuttle over to the launch pad and they stand it up for launch....the heat sink falls off....I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE, I'm gonna go buy a space shuttle off ebay."
Boo thats stupid.
Unfortunantly the OP doesnt communicate well... nor has he returned to post again. I bet he realized that a cable was lose and his comp is working fine now... or
that the HSF dropped 3 times on the HDD then onto the case floor. Yap that would do it.
My immediate reaction would be that I'd put his head thru a wall, curl up in a ball, and whimper while sucking on my thumb, crying for help and coffee....
The Overall Moral of Our Lives: If it can be f^cked up, I guarantee someone, somewhere, somehow, will f^ck it up.
just because I havent had access to the internet in like 2 days you guys think that im gone for good. I sent out the package today, and should be getting a new hardrive eventually. I plan on ordering another so I can have raid. The particular model I bought wd2500SD is pretty expensive everywhere (including ebay). so I will probably go with a wd2500JD. it shouldnt matter because they are part of the same family, the SD was just made for enterprise conditions. And you guys are accusing me of not listening. I didnt set up this forum expecting that type of awnser, I just wanted to know if anyone had any tricks on getting everything to line up and such. And how little at a time do I OC? I went directly to 2.4 without a problem.
And how little at a time do I OC? I went directly to 2.4 without a problem.
From what I understand on OC the CPU, it should be taken into steps. Basically you would increase the FSB little by little (for say increments perhaps of 5, so FSB 200 to 205 to 210 to 215, ect), and test for stablity for a certain amount of hours with programs to stressing the CPU. That's one reason why it does take time, to be sure of a stable OC.
Just because the machine boots into windows at an OC speed, doesn't mean its stable, without extensive testing.
Most I believe would use Prime95 to determine if the OC is stable by running it at least 6 hours, or by some other benchmark. So OC will take allot of time in tweaking settings like the vcore to make it stable.
Perhaps looking into the OverClocking CPU section might even help you out further.
Remember to reGoup your CPU with new compound. Once the compound has been exposed to heat, then air again (not to mention dust and small organic material) it looses its effectiveness.
well in response to the vcore voltages and stuff. I dont do any of that, the asus program I got with the mobo automatically does everything. I just tell it what fsb i want, and it doesn the rest (including ram).
. o O (I don't know either...)
