I'm interested in building a new system with an Asus A8N-SLI Premium motherboard and an AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego. Unfortunately, the Asus site lists only the 3700+ rev E6 (not E4) as being supported. How can I buy an E6? I called newegg tech support, and they couldn't tell me what rev...

Hey guys, I upgraded my system this weekend from an XP 2000+ to an A64 3400+ and gigabyte motherboard. I ran some games and didn't see a huge difference so I decided to run 3dmark on it (BTW I have a 6600GT which I would have thought would be cpu limited with the XP2000+). The 3dmark score is...

Hi! I chanced upon this newsgroup while I was desperately looking for help in using my 64-bit commercial Fujitsu Siemens computer, and I must say that you folks really know your computers and I've received a lot of help and encouragement. I've also recently found another Internet newsgroup...

I'm fed up of this Winfast/Foxconn K8S755A/755A01 motherboard. It refuses to run the RAM at DDR400, and I cannot stop it from trying to boot off USB storage if I forget and leave them plugged in. So, any recommendations for 754 motherboards? I have spare NICs and PCI audio, so all I really need is...

How much of a performance improvement can we expect on an AMD64 CPU running Windows XP x64? Should we expect any performance gain on 32-bit applications/games running on a 64-bit OS like x64? Also, anyone have any more specific idea than "first half of 2005" as to when Windows XP x64 will be...

Greetings, I've been a fan of AMD since the K5 days (Intel before that) and am in the process of upgrading from a Duron 1400+ Pro @ 1.01 GHz with 512 MB of DDR to an Athlon64 2800+. I'm only upgrading the mainboard itself, and it's a cheap one being the ECS 755-A2. So cost is an issue. My first...
