Last night I finally made a decision and placed my order for an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum with an Athlon 64 3000+ Winchester. I'm still struggling with the RAM and Case/PSU decision. I want the ability to overclock but I don't want to go too crazy with the cost. I don't think I can afford 1gb of RAM...

I am using a core2duo, but I figgure for the discussion forum this is just as good as the x86-64 code is now (or should be) the same between both processors. I own several copys of win2k retail professional, as such these keys allow me to have a few pc's running without any issue. My question...

I'm an AMD loyalist, have been for years and I'm wondering what AMD plans on doing to compete with intels new core 2 duo (conroe). My biggest complaint about AMD lately has been them asking too much for their dual core chips compaired to intel. I was building a server for work about a month ago...

I have just recently upgraded to the GA-8KNS Ultra 939. At present I havea Maxtor 80 GB HDD ATA 133. I work wit a lot of large files so my HDD takes a lot of thrashing. I dont really want to spend a lot of money so I thought I would add an additional 80 GB HDD and set it up as RAID 0. After...

I'm planning on having a custom system built,primarily for gaming,internet use,and occasional CD burning.I was going to go with the 4000+ San Diego,but now that the dual core 64's are out,I'm starting to wonder if a 4400 would be a better long range choice.(I skipped the 4200 because for a small...

For some reason I'm unable to reply to your post in the previous thread. No idea why, it just won't go through, so a new post is my only option. To answer your question...memory hole mapping is disabled although it doesn't seem to make a difference either way when set. Also, I've had my 4400+ up...

Here's my situation: I've had my XP x64 installation up-and-running since May. About a week ago, I experienced a brief freeze and had to do a hard boot. The machine ran fine for another day or so then froze again. Rebooted and got a "Machine_Check" blue screen error indicating a hardware...
