I am so humbled and honored by [at least] two such fine young overclockers sporting their badges of well-earned honor. I can remember when both of you were sushi's, prior to your respective major OC's. I have witnessed your growth in knowledge, especially OC knowledge. I very much respect you and am always interested in what you have to say. Keep up the excellent work for yourselves and your conversion of others to the OC ways. Also don't forget about the anti-beat down campaign 20 days to go.

Now all we have to do is get you two genetisized !

Thanks Sir.
The Beatdown has not been forgotten. The mission will go on.

All hail king sapasion!

That's true
The Christmas beat-down was something conceived about a month ago. When I thought about how damn cheap memory was and is. I issued a challenge to all SharkyForum members higher than catfish that by Christmas they needed to have 256 of ram in their personal PC. I mean there's almost no excuse. I don't care if someone thinks 128 is enough for them 256 was the mandate. Starting at the crack of dawn December 26 I'm sending all the boyz out. Check with Acceptable_Risk he knows whats going on. He's also Grand Inquisitor for this purification ceremony.

catfish, uh, reporting in
and.....we have 256MB of memory confirmed in a crappy i810 mofo

I got the upgrade.

128MB->256MB for me. I need to get some better memory, though (it's old). But I do have Cas3 PC100 OC'ed to 115MHz. Maybe I can get to 125MHz with some PC133 Cas2.

BTW, sapasion, do you have AIM? We should chat some time. I go by arcadianU9, if anyone's interested.

I've got my excuse that I'm still in debt from buying my sys almost 2 months ago. I still don't have speakers, a dvd drive, or a decent monitor. I have 128megs running at 148 right now, that should be worth something, my duron at 667 crushes the athlon 1ghz in memory bandwitch in Sandra. No comment on teh p4.

Indeed, those are paramont needs. Monitor is obviously essential. DSL is essential in my book too , but technically a luxury. Still you should definitely take care of those first.

Should I drop cash for a high-quality 256MB stick right now? I want it to last me for the next 3 years... even when I upgrade my mobo to the newer DDR ones in the future, can I use PC133 with a DDR mobo?? Will there be an Intel chipset supporting both???

If you will be able to use your SDRAM stick on a DDR mobo depends on the board, if the manufacterer includes banks for both DDR and SDRAM, then yes you will be able to use your SDRAM on it.

However, it's not posiible to add a stick of DDRAM later on, it won't be possible to use them both at the same time.

i heard about 30$ more expensive at each stick starting in the next month.

I think you should go for a dual Drift0.8 setup- You honestly don't need more, and if you do, I either recommend stacking or a second stage cooler, IE you have three waterblocks like this:

radiator (must be able to handle 860-1200W)
waterblock
4-6 Drift0.8
waterblock (chills water to sub zero)
waterblock
1 Drift0.8
coldplate

And a big-ass powersupply....

You are better to buy an 800 thunderbird be cause of cache in games@256 full time speed and l1 128 a lot better cache quality than duron .
As for cooless the orb for an o.c. @ 1 ghz is not enough .
The hedgehog however is verry nice thunder performer for 800@1000mhz thunderbird .
As for the speed the thunderbird is 8% more fast than duron , so the realy difference is the cache what you will need for the future games.
Ad the $$ and go for the t.bird you not gonna regret'it

I was thinking about something like that but i didn't think it could work. My radiator is a aircon cor from a car measuring 1x1m . I dont want to muck about here. I have 3 300w PSU units plus the one i am using atm. I have to car thermo fans to cool the radiator and they draw 45w's each

quote:Originally posted by FaTs:

Because then you would be faster than me, that's why

If that radiator is 1x1m, I would say that it will most likely be able to cope with up to 1KW. Mine is a small heatercore from a Ford Fiesta, about 20x30cm, and it cool the water to about 30C. The TECs and CPU puts out roughly 330W.

My question is how much more power will increasing the i//o voltaghe from 3.3 to 3.5 give my cpu.

Would CPUFSB or SOFTFSB allow me to clock my cpu higher than the bois purely to see what it can do ? provided i can get it more voltage

Personally I use BlueOrb's for video cards. They're so much smaller in terms of profile. That and I don't have the room for the full size Golden Orb. All but one pci slot is filled on my mobo. The BlueOrb actually has a fan that spins 500-600 faster than the GOrb. I believe HardOCP verified that a BOrb cools to within 1ÂșC of a GOrb on a gpu. Plus regarding attaching, BOrbs just snap into place [at least on nVidia cards]. Otherwise Arctic Silver now comes in an epoxy.

I was planning on purchasing a 128MB PC-133 DIMM for quite some time, and when I finally placed the order, I saw it was for sale for $87 bucks Canadian, so I was like "Damn, snag me another one. I was going in expecting to pay 120-160, so I might as well do it "

Oh, I can FIND RAM round here alright, but I have to shell out some cash for a new CPU and CD drive, I used to have 2 64MB sticks, but one of them blew up

What I hate is that a stick of high-quality PC133 CAS 2 will cost me $175, and I can only afford $100, so I guess it'll be 128MB for me

Well i've got an interesting little bit of info. I have a friend i met on the internet she works for intel in there proccesor devolpment labs.

I was telling and showing her my cpu last night over the webcam and she said that she would send me an instrution set on how to unlock the multiplyer. She said it's pretty complex thing to do but it should work. You guys will be the first to know if it does. 150mhz FSB celeron yes plz. Also she told me linking the L2 on the bottom of the chip wouldn't work, Intel had though of this and the cache links inside the chip to a seprate ponit and connecting them would more than likely fry your chip.

She also said the .13mircon p3's will over clock as fast as you want to take them and intel was trying to limit there overclockablity (bastards) .

Now i dont know how much of this is true. I belevie her she has an intel tech ID and an intel email address so maybe.

Now THIS is hot news... unlocking the multiplier on Celerons, maybe not that great an advantage.... how are you going to run it on a 150 FSB??? The question you should've asked is: how can I enable 256KB cache on my cC0???

Maybe I should 'cheap out' and get PC133 CAS 3... do brands like Toshiba & Samsung make CAS 3? I've only seen CAS 2 by them

The thing is... with PC133 CAS 3, the stuff isn't guaranteed with Athlon systems, which is what I'll most probably upgrade to

Don't skimp on ram for an AMD system. Make sure you order amd certified sticks.

sapasion: Celeron II 600, Abit Slotket!!! and 256 megs PC-133 ordered and on their way asap... *takes a knee* Oh yes, I will hit a gig with that 600... provided that my old 128 meg stick will go high enough...

I think a friend of mine deserves a smackdown for maxing out one of his boxes with 3 256MB DIMMS (PC100 on a Tyan Mobo w/Win2K and Dual Celery 500's). He paid over $1000 at my old workplace (Milwaukee PC) for the generic RAM.

I don't have any beef with my old employer...but when I asked him why he did it..."Because I Can!"

Well, to my friend I say...you should have now.

While my system is stock with only half of the required memory I can guarantee to double the memory and to have an oc'ed celery by December 26th. My posts on the other hand will probably remain low since $ won't increase those numbers.

Yes, that's a good gift! Thank goodness broadband doesn't need to be added to the list (got cable on monday...going from a 26400 baud connection....vvvvvvvrrrrrrroooooom!)

I imposed the RAM beat-down because that is within everyones control. Everyone can get their system to have 256 inside of it. Broadband, while totally desirable, is out of many people's hands. We who have this priviledge can only hope others can be as fortuneate as soon as possible.

Imperial Emperor Sapasion Sir:

I ask to be apprenticed into the community. I have converted three fellow students at my campus to visit sharky, after seeing the memory prices (of all things!)...and another friend of the family made me bookmark the site as soon as I showed him (guess?) THE MEMORY PRICES!

Seriously, that's not joking at all. Those prices have gotten people talking, even among semi/partial-geeks. I've never seen RAM cause so much of a stir.

May I be apprenticed into the order? The AmIsH_ChIeF wishes to join the ranks of the zealous.

(Ha, overkill is fun!)

Consider thyself knighted. Welcome. Continue to convert disciples to the OC ways.

The beatdown applies to catfish and higher. It is good to hear of your plans though. Nothing pleases me more than to see sushi learning and growing in the ways of OC. By the time you make catfish you will be very well prepared.

Agree, and the same thing goes for HardwareCentral Forums. even Off topic is far behind. Overclocing ROCKS!!!

oh, I'd like to be Field Marshall and Commander of the sapasion Order. Is that OK with you??
