I have a K9A2 Platinum motherboard and i have 2 OCZ HPC reaper 2gb sticks in it. they are supposed to run at 1066 but the mother board states its running at 800 and the only way to change the number is to adjust the fsb ram ratio or change the fsb. the ratio is at the highest so the only way to increase the ram is to rase the fsb, but that raises ...

Anyone have any recommendations for processors and motherboards f0r use with Dragon Naturally Speaking 10. It needs to support SSE2. I have an AMD Barton and an Asus A7V8x motherboard which on;y supports SSE. Thanks.

I have a few year old Micron PC with a bad motherboard  I'm in search of the correct replacement. Its a Gigabyte GA-7DX board running an AMD Athlon. If anybody can help or point to a resource I would appreciate it, thanks!!

I'm building my first computer in a long time.  My last build was an Athlon 800, so while I know a fair amount, that knowledge is outdated.  I've been trapped for many years in laptops and now I'm free again, but things have changed considerably.  I've settled on the AMD 790gx platform and I'm going to supply it with a respectable ...

Hello all! I started out with the question: which AMD chipset is best for 4000-series Crossfire? I have been looking all over the internet off-and-on for weeks for an answer to my question with little success but now, since I'm asking the experts, I'll just put it out there: What is the best northbridge chipset to use for a system that will be ...

I am upgrading from the old socket 754 build I put together in college. This is my preliminary list of hardware. The budget is tight, so I'll be putting the core together first, reusing some old components, and upgrading as I can. I don't have too many builder friends, so any opinions and input would be greatly appreciatedMotherboard BIOSTAR ...

I just now read that nVidia acquired Ageia...I thought that between Ageia physics and ''true'' quad core processing that AMD/ATI stood a chance of redemption by going a different route technologically. Around the time of socket 939 (seems so long ago) AMD seemed untouchable. Although ATI took the backseat graphically around that time, building ...

Hi, I'm going to be in the market for a new computer in the next couple of months and I'm trying to find a motherboard that will satisfy my needs. I'm looking for something with an AM2+ socket (Phenom support) and an nVidia north bridge along with  support for SLI. It seems that the only decent AMD boards that I can find are all designed to ...

I Have some questions about Intel and their product timeline/discription and AMD. I know intel has the new skulltraill 771 board out and I am curious as to what direction they are heading for in terms of socket changes and types of ram as well as if they will erver have an onboard memory controller. AMD has a great platform with it`s new 760g ...

I've read with great interest and appreciation many of the threads under System Builds. While several have approached addressing my needs, none have really zeroed in on my situation. I'd greatly appreciate some advice on a server I intend to build for my architectural practice. If your here looking for answer as I am, an article I found ...
