Yea. I stopped that deal. Spending whatever money Ive got on my "project."

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...

I got a GeForce FX5200, how do I do the overclocking thing.

Can't find the settings adjusments in my nVidia menu, I have the newest Drivers

SnakeEyeSS · September 22, 2004

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... 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

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?

5.3LSilverado01 · September 27, 2004

I have a P4 2.8Ghz oc to 3.4

and a 6800 gt oc from 350 to 412 and memory from 1000mhz to 1110.

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.
