OK, let me begin by saying that I am *not* overclocking this CPU. I was told that this was clearly an error on core #3 of my processor. I was running OCCT v3.1.0 and had allowed this CPU to begin testing. It lasted all of 5m 53s. I cannot figure out what is wrong here. Is my processor defective or...

Hi, I am astonished about the price differences of current G34 Opterons: - 6128, 8x 2000 MHz, 8x 512 kB L2, 2x 6144 kB L3: 248,77 ¤ - 6168, 12x 1900 MHz, 12x 512 kB L2, 2x 6144 kB L3: 681,42 ¤ This is more than 25 ¤ difference per core. Of course, put on a dual mainboard one makes "just" 16...

Hi! I'm the owner of a notebook Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo A1667EX with a AMD Turion 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 processor. After several tries and a BIOS upgrade, I've installed Windows 7 on that machine, it works pretty well, but I have a problem with the processor. According to Windows Upgrade...

Hello. The PC has a SATA HDD, 512 MB of RAM, DVD-ROM drive, and an ATI Radeon 9600 AIW video card. Nothing fancy. ;) And yes, it has to be from http://cdw.com since my employer says so. :( Thank you in advance. :) -- "Ants can lift up to 50 times their own weight. And your monitor is missing....

Just installed this tonight, put it into a Gigabyte 890GPA-UD3H with the latest F7beta bios, and using http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7hardware/thread/71519d51-f6cb-47df-b3ff-66c2928d6de4 first to make sure it detected all the cores.

I would like to ask subscribers to report in this thread links to attempts to use AMD Phenom X6 (Thuban Core) in AM2+ motherboards with the following chipsets: 790FX + SB600, 790FX + SB750 and 790GX + SB750. Are there any AMD people here who can provide insight into real backwards compatibility...

My current trusty box, an Asus A7N8-Deluxe with an Athlon XP2600 Barton core has started locking up with various bus errors. I've swapped out every part I can to isolate the problem and nothing is helping, which leads me to suspect the board. Since this combo is so old I'm at a loss for a...

Actually, I'm posting this just to see if anybody is still monitoring this group :-) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103849&cm_re=Phenom_II-_-19-103-849-_-Product

I have an AMD PhenomII X4 955 Black Edition and this is a 4 core processor? I have run CPUZ 1.54 64 bit and it says that the processor is running 2 cores and 2 threads. I thought that this was meant to be a 4 core CPU? I have run CineBench 11 and it says it is 2 core 2 Threads also. Is this...

Hello, I want to upgrade my Acer Aspire M1100 with a new CPU. The old one is an Athlon 64 4000+ and I bought an Athlon X2 5000+ to replace it. Unfortunately, the BIOS doesn't recognize it and the latest BIOS ACER provides can't be written by AWDFLASH: "The program file's part number does not...

For the first time, an AMD CPU is available in my country (Romania) at launch time and at comparable prices to other EU countries. There are also directly available in most EU countries along with 890FX-based motherboards. Up until now, absolutely all AMD CPUs were almost 80E-100E more expensive...

Hello. Lately, I have been random and rare kernel panics on my old Debian/Linux box (tried both Kernel versions 2.6.30 and 2.6.32). I couldn't figure out what it was until I discovered mcelog a couple days ago, and it revealed interesting scary datas in my dmesg/messages and syslog: # cat...

I have got a custom built machine: Asus M2N68-AM SE2 motherboard with an AMD Athlon I X2 250 3 ghz CPU, plus 320 hd drive, 4 gb RAM (Buffalo), PNY Nvidia G210 card, running Windows 7 64 bit. I had some instability problems when I'd had some apparently faulty Elixir RAM - blue screens, and warped...

I have an amd athlon 64 x2 dual core 4000+ 2.10GHz processor. Does that mean each core runs at 2.10GHz? Or is 2.10GHz split between the two cores (i.e., resulting in maximum clock speed of 1.05GHz for each core)? TIA.

I've a server with 2 AMD Opteron 250 cpu's. AMD's website seems to indicate that it should support amd-v but I beg to differ. A DMIDECODE on my Linux server shows no indication of Hardware Virtualization being available for the Opteron 250. I'm a little ****ed about this as I bought this server...

Hello. Last Tuesday night, I came home to my already powered on old Linux/Debian computer desktop (leave it 24/7). I woke it up to log in from its xmatrix screen saver and sleep. I ran a program (just upgraded VirtualBox and wanted to test it) and it hard locked up on me. No lights on my old PS/2...
