Intel vs. AMD

Lol interesting way of putting it. It's sometimes important to remember that mods are real people with real lives too, and not just some imposing presence.

Oh and btw ddp, no offense meant but have you ever written a long post? I realise, why use 15 words when 4 will do, but you take concise to the extreme!

 

DDP,

The only problem with that is if dear ol dad goes in there his password won't be there anymore. Don't think he will be happy. Could be butt-whippin time for FISHNERD!!

Yeah I remember him having difficulties with his oldskool dad before, wasn't he banned from looking at this site once?

 

awwww.. your soo nice ddp.. and no.. i can oc if i want to through the uguru.. its a program that installed in the os.. it monitors everything and has the utility for overclocking it.. and i know to clear the cmos.. if he pisses me off enough..
and i have learned to watch my typing to a point.. and i have the moderators to thank for that.. you mature really fast when you are constantly being slapped on the hand... lol

and i will update pictures soon.. btw: the F'ing mobo shows the cpu multiplier on an lcd on the motherboard.. Cool...

 

all i know that i got was the 1 week suspension.. i had no idea of the other 2.. i dont need you to remind me either ddp ... LOL

 

very true... LOL..
how old are you ddp?
if you dont mind me asking.
talk to yall later because it is too early for
mr to think...

 

O and ddp.. why does my computer feel faster, if i only switched motherboards? i did go from 1.5gps or sata2 to 3.0gps.. and i defraged.. but i fell like an 4200 single core?

 

Grrr. i cant find it.. O well.. ddp is nice enough to tell me..
and i was looking at the 19 inch viewsonic.. 2ms response for 266.00
but i dono if it is NOT worth the extra 35.00 to go to the 20.1 inch BenQ 8ms and both have 8ms response time.. any comments?
thanx,

Hey Guys,

I need a little help! A while back someone posted a link either here or the Hounds for some software overclocking software. I know I saved it but I can't find it. Would that person kindly re-post the link? I have a few "Mad Scientist" things I want to try and that software would be the right thing for the job!

FIHSNERD, i would go with the Veiwsonic iam not a BenQ fan with the montiors veiwsonic has a 20.1 also per my sig

 

FISHNERD,

I don't mean to be a fly in the ointment but I'm very partial to my Sceptre X20 available at:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824112176

From experience with it since I bought it early March, I can tell you that it's the best 20.1 widescreen I've ever seen. I can't wait until I get my ATi X850XT 8x AGP card for it. The XFX 5200 in it now is just not near good enough for games. I can play Delta Force Extreme at the highest resolution but I can't improve the detail of the video because I only have 4 Pixel Pipelines. I can't wait for the 16 I'll have with the X850XT. The computer has the guts to run anything, it only needs the ATi to be perfect.

I'll tell you how good I think the Sceptre is. I would pay the same price that I paid for it then, if I had to right now!!! It was a bargain at $430, it's a STEAL at $299!!!! I especially love to watch the amazed looks on peoples faces the first time they see a game or a DVD played on it! It's been about 4 months since I got it, with many hours spent on-line and their hasn't been a hint of eyestrain. Something I can't say for some other brands! I highly recomend it!!! Think about it.

P.S. Read the reviews at Newegg, particularly about the gaming. It's an "amazing" monitor for the price!

I think what you are looking for is on the old intel vs. amd. just go back there and look . may tak some time. i may have downloaded it also i will look.

 

baltekmi,

No, it's got to be this one or the Hounds. It was after the new thread! I went back to around page 35 but I finally gave up and asked for it. It's hard to read through 40 pages or so, I just may have missed it.

Thanks anyway,
theonejrs

 

do you remember what the software is call or name?

 

baltekmi,

Nah, I just remember someone asking about an overclocking program and gave a link for it. I could have sworn that it sparked some discussion but I just can't find it! I just has a couple of crazy ideas that I wanted to try and the software might be helpful as you can make changes on the fly. If I could remember the name I could find it. I need to seriously clean out my D Drive!!! Like say with a Machette! Thanks anyway.

theonejrs,

I have a question. My main problem with oc'ing my abit mobo was the out of noware restarting of the system. Temps were fine. I am starting to think that my power supply is not up to par... what do you think?

 

baltekmi,

No I don't think it's the power supply but if you are running the memory timings listed in your sig, then they are way too tight. What I would like to see is Sandra benches for Math and Memory Bandwidth, then I could tell you a little more CPUz just doesn't give enough information. I had the same problem where Prime95 would be running and the machine would just shut down. Post those 2 benches and I will have a better idea of what's wrong. I use a pasword so I can see if it failed and re-booted. If the pasword screen is there, it failed. Please use the older one if you have it as the 2007 is just too hard to read!

Make sure you scroll the info at the bottom before you capture it so I can see the CPU info on the math and the memory timings and speed on the memory bandwidth. Thanks.
