it's not a problem...it is designed as such...that's actually my argument why thet have 1&3 same color coded when both cannot be used to run dual-channel...maybe future bios update will address this issue...

QUOTE(kianwee @ Mar 29 2005, 11:08 PM) mine's A02 on the board and A3 when checked using CPU-Z. what i heard was the difference in revision simply means the difference in the default bios shipped. all the motherboards are the same. same here dude...cpu-z = A3, but Speedfan = A2 same as on board...now i'm confuse... |

QUOTE(gamers maniac @ Apr 4 2005, 12:16 AM) that is my timing now.. 2.5,3,3,8 at 255mhz. but through bios cant boot even with 215mhz. max is 210mhz.. how's ur temp doing...almost similar to mine...but dunno what's wrong...it shoot up to 80C [reported by SpeedFan]...damn hot...but still manage to prime stable for > 2hours [stopped the test already]...only oc'ed to 2.2g [245x9.0]@1.56v...trying to get highest possible with mem timing at 2336...222x is a dream that would never come true with my ram stick...  |

QUOTE(iDk @ Apr 5 2005, 10:27 PM) i think better use a digital temperature tester or plant in the temperature sensor to read the proc temp. Dont later toast your proc when you still looking at the software temperature reading on the computer screen you said it bro...maybe end of the month gonna get one...any suggestion??? |

QUOTE(irenic @ Apr 6 2005, 12:00 AM) if u guys were me, which one will u trust more.. hardcano13 reading or smartguardian? some argument here please...i put the sensor just at the bottom of the heatsink beside the processor.. correct me if i'm wrong...but the smartguardian or any software based would be taking the reading from the thermal diod or something which is 'planted' directly in the core itself...while the hardware based...like hardcano...the sensor is placed on the surface of the core...based on the principle of the Earth itself...the core (those that has magma/larva) would have higher temp compared to the one on the surface, right...dunno, but seems same case applies...the hardware sensor would sense the heat being released by the core...whereas the thermal diode is sensing the core heat itself... just some thing to ponder...not sure how true could that be...  /offtopic:irenic, how much did u pay for it and where???tq |

QUOTE(Sanko @ Apr 10 2005, 09:16 PM) hrmm... i got a question here, between acbel 500W and enermax noisetaker 600W, which one is more suitable for dfi ultra D? (not going for sli) acbel has 3 12v rails with 11A, 21A and 12A while enermax has 2 12v rails with 18A and 18A. for acbel, the 11A for cpu is sufficient or not? i'm running amd64 Win 3200+ unless u gonna use 6800gt/ultra...then 2 12V rails would be sufficient...i think noisetaker 600w is good for both 6600gt or 6800gt/ultra...hmmm...even running sli...but if price would be ur considering factor...then with 6600gt, acbel 500w would be enuff...mine is noisetaker 470w...still good enuff...i'm using galaxy 6600gt (2.0 ns series), was wondering whether it has it own power plug or not, because the third 12v rail in acbel ipower 500W is for vga. if there's other better psu than these, please pen down that too.... hrmm... there are more than 1 question there, sorry and thanks... |

QUOTE(pizzaboy @ Apr 10 2005, 08:40 PM) simple really. that's thru also...but if the stuff can take it...will not be a problem...unless u plan to use it for another two years or something which i'd 110% confident not the case cuz i'm afraid if i leave it 24/7 at 3.4V and above,i'm going to bust my stuff. Why would I want to have it at 250MHz when I'm sleeping and leaving it to download CSI right? but i'll still overclock sikit-sikit...maybe within 10% lidat lor...gila meh buy DFI and UTT but dowan to overclock at all. Hehe..... btw,why are those guys at xtremesystems.org having soooo many dead DFI's??? this is bloody scary man.  ...as long as ur stuffs temp within good range and the oc is not giving ur system a headache...just leave it oc'ed...just the thought that u buy dfi and utt but 24/7 with only 10% is such a waste...p/s: if u wanna trade off ur utt with my tccd, let me know...my tccd is still good for downloading... |

QUOTE(irenic @ Apr 11 2005, 12:09 AM) maybe dinster will bring the ocz powerstream in super bulk v3.0 ya...waiting for that Hyperbulk as well...maybe next month...somebody did request for the powerstream 600w...price for bulk might range around 800...but if you cant wait...can get the noisetaker 600w la...it's around 570 at lyp... but dunno how much it will cost i guess u can find the enermax at All IT... erm if the acbel 550w also has dual or triple rail with total +12v more than 33A, then i guess it is good la.. logically 550w > 500w hehe  |
