    @Eddy/Whiplasher Yo Guys, which fan did you pick up to go with xp-90 - Panaflo M1A (48cfm) or H1A (57cfm) by any chance ? Did u have them tailed w/ a 3-pin hook-up for DFI mobo ? FrozenCPU was out of stock with the H1A for a while - seems to be available now !

    Crazy Eddy's new toys

    Waaaay to go Crazy_Eddy ! You sure have a great cousin ! And hope to see some 3G ocing :hap2: Now Crazy_Eddy, who made you sell the DFI nf3 and pleaded you to go nf4 :P ? Well, I owed one to Eddy bcoz he was a significant factor in making me go AMD when I was tempted to set up an Intel rig...

    Post your overclocks !

    Pardon me, but that is clearly incorrect ! The Memory Frequency cannot be greater than the HTT Frequency ! The correct answer is Mem Freq = 300 MHz (if you believe CPU-Z) or 283 MHz (if you go with Everest Beta Edition). There is a logical argument to go with Everest ! Here's the formula for...

    Graphic Cards Heat Haze demo

    Well, based on a quick glance of the demo/source... Looks like it is a demo for GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT for which you need the appropriate driver - in the case of nvidia > 71.84 atleast, and in the case of ATI it could be that the implementation is still incomplete ... haven't kept track of their...

    PC Peripherals Name of Chips Used on Memory Modules

    Good initiative Rocky ! :cool2: The techpowerup site is possibly a li'l outdated (you may want to verify that) compared to the first link below from Xtremesystems.org (the best that there is, and possibly by that same author !). The following data - based on the first link below - is prolly...

    GATES VS. GOOGLE - Search and Destroy

    Wow ! That article makes some grippin' reading - nice find Albert :cool2: ! Google prolly is also onto creating an OS to compete with Redmond. Google has also managed to rope some high profile bigwigs from Sun Microsystems - Josh Bloch for one. I believe the Generics lead also is with Google...

    PC Peripherals AMD: DDR500 - DDR2

    ^^An educated guess from you is good enough ;) ! The intention certainly wasn't to second-guess you :cool2: . But back to the topic, whether AMD will do a DDR2 or NOT (debated again) has apparently raised some concern in the past few weeks. This pcperspective article pretty much summarizes the...

    PC Peripherals AMD: DDR500 - DDR2

    Yes deejay, I did see your edit :) . But this was for people, moi included, who didn't get to read the official AMD stance that DDR2 is on the cards, in reply to the earlier speculations, earlier in this thread and in others elsewhere here, that DDR2 may be skipped by AMD. And feel free to...

    PC Peripherals AMD: DDR500 - DDR2

    FYI: OK ! This is AMD's official stance on DDR2 (dated April 30) , in reply to the above speculation - just in case folks didn't catch it ! AMD Athlon 64 Revision F to Support DDR2 in 2006. AMD Processors for Socket M2 to Sport DDR2 SDRAM...

    PC Peripherals AMD: DDR500 - DDR2

    It's very funny and coincidental that you should mention that about the Winnie - Eddy and I had a conversation very recently with similar thoughts - that's one reason why I'd prefer people to go Venice rather Winnie if they have a good chance now - With the Winnies AMD was prolly testing the...

    PC Peripherals AMD: DDR500 - DDR2

    Alright, CoolTechZone has been dishing out these reports in recent times about AMD's plans for DDR500 and (lack of it) for DDR2. As the site probably hints, they are prolly just speculations; TBH this is the first time I'm getting to browse that site. If you come across anything to corroborate...

    Super OC Masky :hap2: ! So the A8N-E nf4 Ultra rockz ! I'd have liked to pick up that A8N-E from Darky, but have been stuck in a stupid fix here with my second rig. What's your SuperPI time - ~33 sec or prolly less ?

    PC Peripherals branded smps

    Absolutely Masky ! In my case it saved me a couple of drives to the dealer's shop as I was continuously monitoring when the new ones would arrive. The secy. who usually answers the phone, was more inclined (/trusted) to read off the serial # rather than checking the Amps on the box - in fact...
