Water cooling is the only way to go... I am working on a setup for my computer right now...

 

P4 3.0Ghz... Thing smokes up to 45C with the current water cooling system I have. I am working on a system that uses a heatercore from a car to cool it. I hope to have it done in the next week or so...

oh yeah, another question:

 

How do the current generation of processor's compare?

 

LAst time I followed, the Athlon XP was better than the P4.....

 

How do the Althon 64 and P4-HT compare.....ya I know that the A64 is for 64-bits, a different class, but still performance wise which is better.

 

I've decided that I won't get a new system until Windows Longhorn comes out, to see what Intel has to offer. And my 2.01Ghz AthlonXP is doing just fine for now. Although I do want to jump from 768MB DDR to 1024, which is the motherboar'ds max.(bad thing about HP, not much upgradeability!)

Wow 3ghz and 45*C with water cooling??? Im rinning 2.8 overclocked to 3.4 with air cooling and it rarely goes over 40*C. I mainly want to water cool the vid card casue that thing is like 50*C at idle and 63* under load.

 

The utility for over clocking my vid card came with the software cd. But all it did was give a web link and you click it and it unlocks a couple of settings in the registry. This enables something called Coolbits. Try searching overclocking nvidia 5200 in google. Or try this link http://www.softpedia.com/public/cat/12/1/12-1-31.shtml.

 

Im not sure about compareing the 2 chips... Ive heard te amd's are more frigile... And my ex boss who is a ex compaq employee says amd is the cheap way to go...

Yes its running hot still but I have the 1mb cache chip so they run hot to begin with. At idle its 27 to 28... I am working on a new water cooler setup using a heater core from a car... :devil: Once that is done I am think I will be down around 30 full load.

Wow,

You are blowng me out of the water.

 

Here is mine

 

score1.JPG

 

I have a P4 3.2 overclock to 3.61

Ram was 800mhz and is now 932mhz

ATI Radeon 9800XT at 430MHZ Core and memory at 822MHZ (Overclock extreme)

 

You MUST have either an Nvidia GeForce 6 series or a Radeon X series to post these kinda numbers.

 

Whatcha got?

I'm waiting till a UK suplier has a sertain 6800 water block instock and Im going to water cool vid card, chipset and cpu.

 

My memory is ddr4200 so I can technicly overclock cpu to 3.8, w/o oerclocking memory.

Nice score there.I marked at 45k on the same test right at a year ago with my machine,P4 2.8 clocked at 3g,9800 pro VC not OC'd and then 512 ram (now 1g).

 

The Aquamark is a nice test and awesome graphics to watch. :devil:

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.
