For some reason, the pshufb instruction does not work on my AMD Athlon 64. I tried it in 32 bit mode, and I get an illegal instruction message from Windows. According to this: http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_9485...

The air coming out of the case fan is cooler than the PS fan. It must be an issue with Asus Probe II

ASUS Probe II reports my CPU temprature at 54c (in the green) and the MB at 47c (in the red) is this too hot? I have two case fans installed and connected to the PS so they run constantly. ASUS M2A-VM AMD ATHLON 64 X2 6000+ 2 GB DDR2 800

I currently have a Sempron 64 2800+ (Socket 754) overclocked to 1.99GHz by bumping the FSB up to 249. I'm considering upgrading my old 754 system to the Athlon 64 3700+ 754. (If I can find it and at a reasonable price - any ideas where? Not much luck with eBay.) Keep in mind that the system...

I just built an AMD 5600+ system (with the heatsink/fan that came in the retail box) and when I was just going into the bios screens it heated up to over 80C - why? The CPU fan was running good and strong and the heatsink was too hot to touch - it nearly burned me when I just tapped it. I had to...

Hi all, I would like to get a single socket motherboard now that will take the quads that come out shortly. Is this even possible? What I am hoping for is a 1000 like opteron quad that will run at or near 3.0 GHz and throttle down to low power sleep mode when not doing anything. Is there...

Hello out there, I plan to upgrade my existing system; Gigabyte K8NSNXP-939 Athlon 64 3500+ 2gig DDR400 Infineon (DDR400) with AMDs best 939-based Opteron, the 185 (2x2,6ghz, 1000mhz HT). The mainboard itself has the nforce3 ultra 250gb chipset.

My new 5600 runs just fine (35c-42c), but it is a bit loud (not too much, just a little bit). What is the best aftermarket heatsink/fan that will be quieter and at least as good at cooling?

Does anyone have this CPU? Is there a problem with overheating? What about overclocking? I just ordered one with an Asus M2A-VM MB

Don't laugh! The only way I can install either win2k or winxp (from the "upgrade" CD's I have) is from an existing win98 or winnt. I don't have winnt, but, I do have win98, so, in order to install winxp (or win2k) I first install a blank win98 and the pop in my "upgrade" CD. But the MSI...

Hi all, Hope someone could shed some light on a strange problem I have in installing XP-Pro. (clean install) Windows reports after copying files that it can not see the HDD. Which is a SATA 120g. I checked this drive on another PC and it has no problems. I installed XP onto it with another PC...

Has anyone seen how to install and AM2 heat sink and fan on the inter-net any place? Have tried using Google and Google news groups. I am use Arctic Silver. Thanks Johnny

I'm in the market for an AM2 socket system and I may have some opertunites where I can't research the specific make and model before I take my chances and buy something. I'm looking to run w2k on with an X2 CPU. I'd prefer an all-on-board mobo that can support an extra card for a second monitor,...

I have a dell with amd 64x2 5600 processor with 3 gb of memory 656 mhz,I read somewhere that the 5600 processor would run 800 mmhz at full speed,would there be a significant speed increase if I swithed over to 800 mhz memory.Thanks

I'm looking for a good program to disassemble the bios on my AMD computer. Recommendations? Thanks, Dave Feustel -- Don't Worry. Be Happy.

For an Athlon 2700+ (T-bred) in a lightly loaded system? The 1800+ I just replaced ran about 43-45C with room temps up to about 80F. The 2700+ shows 49C after 45 min with a room temp of 74F. Can I assume anything below 60C is fine? Thanks.
