The difference would be small if the application is single threaded , but the performance gap would be huge when you're going to run multi-threaded application. For overall windows performance it would be better cause you can be ripping music from cd and your windows is still usable. You could even watch YouTube while doing that without any lags (or at least with minor ones)

northwood 512kb cache. prescott 1MB cache.
northwood cooler than prescott.
generally prescott can overclock better than northwood.

to answer the question which is better; actually both same in day to day usage basis, clock to clock comparison.

Yes,have problem with SATA usage. The crappy mobo will hang when in use. The solution we can go is to get a SATA to ATA converter.

that mobo has SATA chipset issue, most likely due to the early adoption of SATA that time. i concur to raymond's suggestion, get a SATA->IDE converter.

ray, it's a confirmed hardware bug due to the way the SATA controller is implemented on this particular mobo wink.gif Some VIA motherboards also affected.

Stock clock comparison, the northwood will win

yes, but the controller + chipset differs for the lower end series to cut cost. wink.gif Higher end mobos have RAID, remember?

since busyman is able to list out partial of the CPU info, i assume the CPU is in his bare hands, he can just check for the IHS engraved info again.

Not oc issue. it mobo chipset issue. 1st was the CMOS not getting power from battery even though new batt changed, causing BIOS setting reset to default each time power socket is switched off. SATA also giving issues, etc. Most likely the mobo reached it's end of lifespan.

i wonder what happened to the huge TR cooler laugh.gif

ASUS brand people have a misconception of BEST motherboards in the industry. Nowadays, not anymore. Every brand has their own top of the line series. Therefore I reckon it would be suffice to say that every brand have their high, mid and budget line of products. Heck, even today BIOSTAR, ECS, Jetway produces good mobo. Now we need to evaluate the after sales service and warranty issues only.

I bet this mobo was produced when the high end mobos were still around. I think Asus priority was to focus on higher end model than lower end one.

You can at least name 3 functions for your rig

Mine is only one: DOWNLOAD

Since you guys have shared how your rigs are primarily used for downloads, let me share a few personal tips off the top of my head to keep the download fun rolling.

I don’t know how it really affects the performance of my download rig but when I turn off my internet firewall, things are really easier for my downloads.

But then again I’m always wary of exposing my PC to unwelcome guests. Thus, it takes a nice combination of luck and research to avoid getting risks while downloading without a firewall.

Your previous Silverstone was the 400w model right? If i am not mistaken,the PSU is a slightly low end model,no active PFC.

when it comes to PSU...seasonic is a good brand to get...it's my favourite brand... biggrin.gif ..corsair, antec all appoint seasonic to make most of their PSUs for them...

Added on January 20, 2010, 2:19 pmBetween,just a light update from me. I have tested Left For Dead 2,it can run smoothly on our P4 rig. For those who is going to play this game,go ahead and you will find a lot of terrors + excitement there. thumbup.gif

L4D2 is very similar to the 1st L4D, a no brainer zombie shooter with few enhancements. Not much innovation there, really. I prefer CODMW2, awaiting C&C in March brows.gif

Actually P4 can still play most of the games except for crazy games like GTA IV. L4D uses Source engine aka powererd by HL2. So if HL2 runs great , L4D will run great. There is nothing fancy. You can even play wow with P4 !

Alamak ravewar, really troublesome lah the sold items need to refund back due to unknown reasons, perhaps your rams working okay but the buyers mobo does not. I remember I got error and can't boot even to bios when I am changing to the new ram. I oc my mobo, and need to reset to default first than I can get everything okay.

Northwood is able to have the temp idle at 3x degree C with stock heatsink fan.

Guess what, too may of our members shifting to new era of 'i" series... even most of 775ers are shifting also. I just bought a new MSI board which before that caused me a big dilemma to change or not to. Sometime I feel that upgrading between the same platform is kinda useless, i5? i7? wish I got much money to poked out from the pocket cry.gif

Haha.. Thats true. Technology is going on, and people change / shift is due to their daily usage. Anyhow, I guess i will still stick to my LG Q-series for another few more years. IMHO, i felt that the currently i-era is way too messy. With the roll out of LG1366 and 1156, its a pain on ass when thinking about upgrading after purchase either one. Diff socket = diff mobo, diff proc and diff ram in some case. sweat.gif

@Ray,
Going dying hard with ur P4? LOL.. What a royal owner! I had just did some upgrading for my pearl. brows.gif Changed 88GTS to GTX260+.

Not to mention the i3, the new member of The 3 Mouse"i"teers. 1366 or 1156? frankly I don't know how it works nor to describe it. 775 is another few years to use till I win a jackpot or the most impossible scenario, a securicor van carrying money to the bank skidded and turn upside down in front of my workplace. Then I'll talk about i7, seriously.

Now playing with my new toy, the P45 Neo3... hehe

yup, very very true. I was looking for the the gigabyte p45 ud3r high and low, I pmed most of our mobo sellers here in LYN, randomly called some shops in lowyat and melaka as well and ravewar also helping me out in finding any sellers... it returned me no more stock or end of line product. Same goes to some models such as msi platinum serie and biostar tpower...

@powerwoot,i think MSI motherboard doesn't come with the good one except platinum series on P35. The test like Biostar T-Power i think is not really a popular brand even though the some is somehow having overclock at certain processors. I got feedback from my friend on his AMD Biostar mobo,their bios has never updgraded to support AM2+,he is vmad.gif

dlwl,thanks for your greeting. I am sure that once people move to newer tech, they will not going to use the old school system again as the performance gain is quite a huge gap.

4GB of RAM... drool.gif 32 bits OS can only detect 3.2GB max i think. The rest of the RAM would be invisible to the OS. Nice filled up on the dummy slots.

This is not bad...But question is how are we going to use the RAM until 3GB there? I disable the virtual memory during gaming also cannot reach there.

Other than Memtest,cannot get other applications which can use up the RAM? Sad case is P4 is not that powerful,else we can do hyper-thread job like decode/encode + gaming at the same time.

If encoding, it depends on how big the output and resolution it will be
The bigger more RAM used up, same with video playback

thanks for the reply. what could be the problem? the only thing i know is that his internals are quite dusty, but does that really effect the performance until this extend?
my friend is also using 1.5GB. seems quite ok to me, but he tells me that if open more than 3-4tabs on safari it'll start to lag. if i'm not mistaken safari is quite a ram hogger isn't it?

No choice have to stick back unless let go the rest of the parts. Edmin,why are you still keeping the old school? Thought you have a new quad core?
not mine, helping out a friend that's not willing to move on! i m still with my s775 quaddy, pushing it to the limits, lol. the connections/expansions on ond off the P35 mobo are fully utilised.

4x SATA = all used by 1Tb x4
2x IDE = 300GB PATA + DVDRW ROM
2x PCIE = Xfi + 260GTX
3xPCI = 1 PCI wifi card
6x USB = Keyboard, BT, 250GB USB external x2, XBOX360 joypad, SDHC card reader, 1 6-port USB hub.

Fully loaded, yo! doh.gif

I have a question... What is the optimal CPU temperature of P4 3.0?

As per image, I used HWMonitor but it says there Diode 1, Diode 2 and Internal... Which one is actually my CPU's temperature?

Thanks in advance...smile.gif

if it yes, then yes it can support sata hdd. but only sata I though, just 1.5Gbps speed. Newer mobos have sata II.

yes you can use it, but the speed will drop down to 1.5Gbps, coz if not mistaken that hdd is sata II. don't worry, shouldn't be a major problem. the 3.5 means the size of the hdd, 3.5inches. notebook ones are 2.5inches btw smile.gif

i think your proc can fetch quite a good price, 3.4GHz P4 is quite a rare one isn't it?
and yeah, ddr1 rams are expensive now, less demand in the market now.

that's why most users are switching platforms already wink.gif

I disagree with this, because i tested a 1080p movie and to my horror most of my installed players stutters on playback. It was finally saved by the simpliest of all players - Media Player Classic sweat.gif
I don't know if it's MPC optimization transfering some of that processing from the cpu to the gpu, or just that it's very light weight. wink.gif

Anyway is it normal for pee4 stock fan to run at 3500 rpm? Coz me new computer cpu fan is <1500rpm at idle, and 2500rpm at peak

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

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. flex.gif


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

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. smile.gif

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.

@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.

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.

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

there's bound to be bottleneck with p4 proc, rite? laugh.gif
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.

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. smile.gif

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. tongue.gif
Still going strong flex.gif

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

@dlwl
The spec used with the card is in my sig. The recommended power requirement is quoted below:
"450-Watt power supply or greater, 30 Amps, 12 volt rail is recommended (assumes fully loaded system)"

For HD videos, you may want to consider at either least Radeon HD3600 series or higher, Radeon 4600 series or higher, and GeForce 8600 or higher (ie. GeForce cards much more recommended due to higher compatibility with "out of specification" formats). These GPUs have H.264/VC-1 hardware acceleration. icon_rolleyes.gif

Nope you can't even with /PAE enabled
Only 64bit versions can detect the whole thing

3.4GHz o/c to 3.9GHz..that's insane...I don't think a Northwood chip is able to do this. He is using an Intel board with GC build in,i wander how he made his o/c on board.

@ichigo_6091,do you have any print screen to share with us ?

3.4Ghz uses x17 multiplier
So basically its just a mild overclock of 30Mhz bump for FSB

230Mhz x 17 = 3900Mhz

See his CPUZ ler, if 1MB cache mah prescott lo

Currently not thinking to change to any side yet, budget constraint. tongue.gif

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. smile.gif

@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.

Yo Ray! Sorry for the very late reply. Extremely busy with my work.. Now then have some time to read back the old replies. Oh.. There no P4 left in my collection now. sad.gif Sad news isn't! Replaced the with Atom N280 due to space & heat constraint. Turning more into photography and home theater. My quaddies were under utilizing beside using it to process RAW to jpeg. sad.gif

I myself is using 4 stick, but sadly under underutilizing. tongue.gif Anyways, it is quite easy to identify them. Check see whether is the any clip on the heat spreader. If got surely high chance is D9GMH. And also check on the parts number. If u got the 1batch with 16FD2 / 16FD3, guaranteed D9's chip.

Yea. The old legend kits. Haha! Its takes me half a year to source from the garage sales section just to find the same batch. Was about to give up that time, but miracle happens and I found the other pair. laugh.gif

Tried on this fella before, from stocked 667mhz to 1200mhz isn't a problem. brows.gif

P/s: Btw, we are out of the track already. Let's come back! tongue.gif

no , i didnt see any artifacts however using Ati Tray Tools & scanning for artifacts, it does after 3-4 minutes

2
psu ratings? 450w, but this is 8 years old already, lol.. the entire system is old. nope, never OC any parts. thing is I downclock the GPU. last time i encounter problem with the GPU liao. so downclocking solved the problem. guess its deteriorating over time

my X800 PRO gpu clocks supposed to be 475/900. it is running at 460/880 during the BSOD.

i am pretty sure no artifacts on screen. no picture runs out. just happens when i play heavy intensive game. i can play Counter Strike for 1-2 hours without problems.

What is 0×00000005 Invalid Process Attach Attempt or 0×00000006 Invalid Process Detach Attempt?
An invalid process attach/detach attempt is a slightly more common error code. Your system is trying to add or halt a process and there is a conflict. The computer cannot resolve the conflict and shuts down, giving you the Blue Screen of Death and the 0×00000005 or 0×00000006 Stop Code.

What Causes the Invalid Process Attach/Detach Attempt?
The most common cause of an Invalid Process Attach/Detach Attempt error is probably a computer game that is incompatible with your system. If you have recently attempted to install a new game on your PC and gotten this error, this is most likely your culprit.

What Can You Do About an Invalid Process Attach/Detach Attempt?
You will want to uninstall the game or device that caused the error. You may still be able to run a game off of disk, especially if you run your system in safe mode to minimize conflicts, but you are probably better off returning the game for one that is more compatible with your system. If the error is the result of a device driver, you’ll need to find an updated driver, or a device with a different driver that will work with your computer.

bbqsauce

my personal opinion: maybe should change/mod the cooler of X800. check the gpu temp during artifacting.

makes sense, i just installed Starcraft II , thats probably why

when i run ati tray tools to "SCAN FOR ARTIFACTS", after about 120 seconds or so, it would artifact, my monitor will go blank and windows will just crash forcing me to restart.

i've installed latest ati drivers for my GPU, that being 10.2 catalyst if im not mistaken

its probably not heat, now that i've cleaned all the dust from the cpu,gpu and internal mobo with air spray and a brush.

it could be power supply, since its so freaking old and probably unable 2 deliver the energy i need for the gpu

hmm 250W does sound too dodgy with a P4 system

i've seen p4 systems at 350W , 400W and 450W b4

even mine is 450W, still looking good.

however, this problem poped up recently or a change of hardware?

haha but in those benchmarks, ATOM loses to P4 in a few benchmark tongue.gif

wah power usage..

i better stop 24x7 my system =.=



QUOTE

Eight Years Are Enough!

In the end, there’s a simple conclusion for everyone who wants a low cost system: keep your old Pentium 4 system if you have to, but bear in mind that all relevant metrics (performance, noise, power, and efficiency) are pathetic by modern standards.

If you can afford to spend a few hundred dollars on a nettop, we’d definitely recommend this. We usually rant about Atom due to its shortcomings compared to desktop platforms, but it simply trounces the old P4s. Keeping a PC in service for seven or eight years is more than enough. Just make sure you go for a dual-core Atom when you decide to buy.
lol exactly what i have achieved, 8 years

and yes, the power/efficiency is pathetic

Hye guys, I'm using AsRock p4145GV Mobo and it's been very hard for me to find the onboard graphic driver for Win7. Do you guys have any solution for this kinda problem. Thanks.

Oh ya, I tried downloading the WinXP VGA driver and run it under WinXP compatibility mode and failed.

N450 is a single core

Atom 3xx and Atom D5xx series is dual core, anything else is single core.

Win7 has default driver for your intel integrated vga, if not, then just run windows update to get the latest driver. You just can't have Aero interface in Win7 due to lack of hardware support.

If you download your drivers from creative, i can tell you it is pathetic. Theres a pro out there that makes drivers for creative sound cards which is even better than creative themselves.

i went thru the bios, nothing inside there talks about "SATA" controller or anything of that sort

not even start boot up sequence

let me search for my MSI 7104 bios drivers

EDIT: back with more information

i took a picture of my load upon my bios, as attached

QUOTE
Another forumer posted his details and i noticed he has v3.0 bios!
SOURCE
http://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=14...52762;topicseen
However, im only PM8M-V (Bios 2.xx) and his is PM8M-VH (Bios 3.xx)

so i go to this site, http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&...o=1&prod_no=205

and see that my mobo can support SATA

now i suspect its BIOS problem, coz in my BIOS, there is nothing about SATA

Did you try checking this 4 sections?

>Standard CMOS Features
>Advanced BIOS Features
>Advanced Chipset Features
>Integrated Peripherals

Boot sequence or the SATA controller settings should be somewhere around there. Can check at Standard CMOS Features section to see if the hdd is detected smile.gif

are those hdds listed as primary master/slave and secondary on SATA or IDE?

there might be a possibility that the SATA controller is dead. My friend had a P4 mobo too, and the IDE controllers just went dead for no reason. Couldn't detect any devices on either ports.

Good luck with that PM8MV. I've tried and tried for almost 6 months already to have the SATA ports working. I've tried updating the BIOS and everything but still useless.

Worst still, each and every extra RAM I slot in it comes out error. doh.gif
Stuck at 500Mb RAM forever. doh.gif

To all P4 users here, its sad to say I'm departing from this platform. My new download rig will be either Dual Core or Sempron/Athlon powered. sad.gif

I will only make the switch when my current 1TB HDD is full.

Oh, and remember my 808GB HDD? It has died too. sad.gif
Have it RMAed and WD swapped a 1TB HDD for me. All my "1 year Jack Sparrow" gone. cry.gif

guys, my friend's pc has this problem. it's cant boot, and once i took out all the IDE cables, it can boot. When i use different cables, sometimes it boots sometimes it does not. However when it does boot, the IDE hard disks and CD-ROM cant be detected. Could it be that the IDE port / chip KO-ed?

anyone tried to put 4x1G ram to p4p800-x? bios reading is less than 3G. Used cpuz and it can detect 4096MB, but system property only written 2.96G for both XP and windows 7.

any fix for this?

haha..i'm tempted to run 7 on my AMD x2 now, although with 1GB. So if can get any feedback from P4 users here, can roughly know what the performance will be like.

You will feel P4 run slower than a dual core configuration in Win 7 definately. But 1GB of RAM in dual core vs 2 oe 3GB of RAM in P4. I would say P4 is always more responsive than dual core with 1GB of RAM.

just for info, few days ago i actually tried running win7 on a Pentium Dual Core laptop with 1GB RAM, it's actually quite responsive and fast. but that was probably because it was just formatted i guess. In the long run i think it wouldn't be good. From what I observed, after startup and some minor internet usage, the RAM usage is around 50-60%.

so i guess i better get another 1gb ram before trying on my X2..

I agree with this as we know RAM is pretty importart for newer OS and applications today. Get yourself at least another 1GB of RAM to ensure the smoothness.

just bought it from lelong the 3.4G, but got a broken pin so send back for warranty liao. actually previously i was running on 2.4G on asrock MB, but then i bought the 3 units of p4p800-x quite sometimes and it can fit up to 4 slots of rams.
now i encounter the problem of bios reset each time i switch off the main switch for my CPU after shut down. cmos battery changed, but still the same. any p4p800-x user facing this type of problem as me? if so, what is the solution?

i don't face this problem for my asrock mb.

i've tested 2 board also like that. the other still unopen. i just wanna confirm it this the board behavior or not.

now damn frustrated vmad.gif after i wasted my whole night taking out my asrock replacing with this asus board hoping to see some improvement but ended up.. haiz... felt like wanna place back my asrock back if i can't solve this bios reset as everytimes i needa change the time, sata boot and other setting. really kacau!!


** i can't remember this happen to my 3.4G proc or not as i used it not more than 2 weeks then swap back to 2.4G now. The 2.4G had been running without an issue in the asrock board previously.

Talking on this Asus mobo,i would say i faced the same problem before. Good thing about this mobo is it's a 865P based chipset and i believe it can o/c better than any Asrock mobo. You could try to replace your CMOS battery and see if it helps. Mine changed battery and it worked well for a while. Why you have bought 3 units of Asus P4P800-X mobos? sweat.gif You have a few P4 system with you?

i've changed the battery but still same, but miracle happen. it never reset yesterday after i power off the main power for 8 hours.

actually I planned to build a small network for my house with a server and other stuff to test out ma. so got a few board to play around with. by the way, my ASROCK P4i65G mobo also run on the same chipset as asus.

The Asrock mobo has integrated display inside, the perofrmance would be par with Asus mobo if running on stock speed with your processor.

The Asus mobo tends to reset frequently with no suprise. After a while seeing this, i also don't seem to bother with ther performance from the mobo itself. Recently has just got it sold off at cheap price.

weird enough. last night i swapped the 9550 with gforce mx-440 and the bios can read the ram memory up to 3.9G and from win7 it show that 3.85G usable instead of 2.5G when i used A9550.

now i am suspecting it is the either ATI, A9550 VGA or my VGA card is having the compatibility issue since using 1 ciplak AGP can display the memory space correctly from the bios!

Your problem is a bit odd with different amount of RAM detected with different VGA card. I think this is not the fault of VGA card but the lame Asus P4P800-X.

Intel 865PERL doesn't have o/c feature tagged along but you are still able to set the RAM timing by using Intel Desktop Controller.

Win7 doesn't have driver for creative webcam & Canon printer,that's the reason why you are still in Vista today. Is it possible to use Vista driver to be installed in Win7 ?
