That is strange....

2.4@4.5..That is insane...I haven't see this before...Have link to share?

If that Galaxy 6600GT is free then I may want to pick it up..

CoreAVC is a commercial product though (not free)

Hei people, I had some information to let you guys know. I'm retiring from my P4 platform.

Reason was my mobo had been acting up the past 1 week, sometimes it can boot sometimes it can't.
I had try swapping rams and graphic card but the PC still unable to boot properly. So come to think of it the mobo would be the culprit.


Anyhow, I'll will be letting go my rams and graphic card. If any P4 user is interested, you all are welcome to have a look.


But I will still be lurking around this thread since I'm user of P4 socket478.

03. nelza_ax - 2.4 @ 4.05GHz - 225.5MHz @ 2.5-3-3-7 - 35.641s

sorry, should be 2.4@4.05GHZ, refer to 1st page.

@\(^.^)/
That is normal in OC. When you are increasing the speed (FSB) of the CPU, the ram will also be following the speed. Unless you change the ratio, 3:2 or 5:4.
By doing so, the ram will be running in a slower speed.

Hellow P4 fella ~ How's everyone here? V9 right now eh! Still kicking ass!

@KahLooN
Sad for ur news man. Btw, welcome to the DarkSide! Any system on ur mind now? i7?

@fylon
Currently not thinking to change to any side yet, budget constraint.

Well seriously I'm bit reluctant to sell the parts, but due to P4 sc478 parts is very hard to get nowadays. So might as well I let go the parts I have to other potential buyers.

My P4 have serve me very well for the past 5years.

Yo,kahloon lost his P4 again......sad to hear this.....

@fylon,long time no hearing from you...how is your P4 rig bought in last time?Still using?

@\(^.^)/, 4.05GHz and 4.5GHz has a lot of different. nelza's proc is able to go high but with some other ratio on the RAM there.

oh, how sad

speaking of which, my system has been acting up too. I don't know either the processor fan or PSU fan is the culprit. Every morning I woke up, I can hear the noise of the fan spinning in a very noisy manner. >.<

Hopefully its the PSU fault.

my friend is thinking of changing his graphic card, and he's trying to minimize the budget for his upgrade. thinking of going for 3850 AGP, anyone here using it? and does he need to upgrade his PSU too? using the stock one from dell.

current specs are 3.0HT, 1.5GB ram.

duwan free la..at least offer abit

If fan problem,just take it out and drop some singer oil to the fan ball bearing...problem will be solved.

3850 AGP is a nice upgrade but you will still see some bottleneck over there. Someone is selling it brand new at RM299.

@raymond
Yeah, but my system had serve me very long already. If it give up then is not a surprise.


@v12kompressor
Well you can open up the side panel and listen to it, it will give you a more indication which fan is failing.
Like what raymond suggest, after that you can add some oil to it.

@dlwl
Your friend looking for 3850? I'm letting go my x1950pro, maybe you can ask your friend interested on this card.

just wanna ask if i can remove the NB fan on my abit AI7 board and use the passive cooler only?

the fan sounds like going to die.

Kahloon,not to say suprise to hear that but sad to see the board is dying....

I am not recommending you to do that.....Use an active cooler is better.

there's bound to be bottleneck with p4 proc, rite?
it's either upgrade the gc, or maybe get a mobo with pci-and ddr2. i think with pci-e gc the bottleneck problem would be worse.

i saw one x1950gt at garage sales too. how does it perform? what pci-e gc does it compare to?
my friend wants to play PES2010 with medium/high settings.

where to get a replacement NB fan for my abit AI7?

@dlwl
If I'm not mistaken, x1950pro>x1950gt. Memory and core speed of the x1950pro is slightly higher.
As for comparing which PCIE card is equivalent, I have no idea.

Well, I seldom play game so I can't comment whether it playable on high settings. So I include this 2 links to give you a rough idea how the cards perform.

@ycs
You can try check with LYN seller or in Lowyat Plaza itself. Many options is available.

Yeah the x1950 pro is better~~
Best of the lot is X1950XT

Tested it just now.
Yup, PSU fan problem. Gonna buy some lubricant when the sun is up.
At first I thought it is the processor fan since I didn't put any thermal paste on since the day I've mass clean my P4, which is many many months ago.
Still going strong

Lucky I posted here. Coz I was planning to buy a new PSU already.
