Windows X64
It may be a great idea but no software seems to support it. I am going back to Windows XP SP2. No more X64 Pro or Vista X64 for me. Parts Arrived
I have the Intel 630 in my system I have not managed to OC it very much yet. I am going to try upping the Vcore a bit to see what that will do. So far I have only got to 3.3Ghz (about a 10% OC). Overclocking. I cannot get enough of it.
Right now I am running at 2.0 Ghz on a chip that is stock at 1.6 GHz But it seems to be quite stable. This is still Overclocking the Sempron 2400+ It now thinks it is a Sempron 2800+ Arctic Cooler Freezer 7
If I was smart I would have ordered it at the same time as the chip but I only spent an extra $15 for the this (shipping) as that would have not been charged had I ordered it at the same time.... Ordered Intel 630
Okay I finally ordered a new Chip for my PC. I also got This for free with the order. I actually would have rathered the Intel 640 but for the 200 MHz that I got for $100 Canadian I could not... OC again
I have now overclocked my Sempron 2400+ to 1850 Mhz or above 2600+ speeds. It seems no more unreliable then before but will keep testing. Case
I just picked up a Tsionic Breeze case. Okay but the front fan mount is a little goofy. PhysX
I am looking forward to the New PPU units. Apparently they should be out before christmas and at a price of near 200 US. I guess new Tech has a premium price. Lucky finally
I got my copy of pariah for $39.99 canadian so I suppose that is a pretty good price. Now I just have to see how the game is. Game Aquiring? Not really.
As Per normal Pariah was not avalible. Neither was a replacement disc for Jedi Knight. Oh well not a lucky day for me... Pariah
Pariah is supposed to be avalible tomorrow. Maybe I will be able to find it in the local stores in the next month or so. Grr. Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within
Hmm. This is supposed to have a very good physics fight model engine. I guess that is why I got it. We shall see what I think... Oh one final glitch fixed.
I turned off error reporting on XP and my system did not reboot during games at all last night and I played for over 6 hours. hehe. Farcry Finished
I finally played through farcry... I thought the ending was a little unrewarding but then the graphics will make it worth starting again. nForce 2 Ultra
Well well well. Seems my system is finally stable. I replace the KM400 Via based chipset with a nforce 2 board Gigabyte GA-7n400s-l and all my problems are gone. I am now using prerelease drivers... 6600 GT swap
Been having some issues with the Geforce 6600 GT from AOpen. Cannot load any drivers besides the AOpen ones. Swapped out for an MSI 6600 GT same problem but now I can only load MSI drivers. Will... Farcry
Finally bought FarCry but I am not sure I like the way it saves games. No saves when I want them just checkpoints. Annoying. Makes the game feel like a console game but with insanely good graphics. 1 GB Ram
I went out a bought an extra 512 MB or memory. I was told it would increase frame rates. I dunno about that but things load faster now. Especially UT 2004. Graphics next
Then I upgraded from the 5700 LE to a 6600 GT. WOW! PC Upgrades
Finally tossed the old P3 750 Upgrades include a Sempron 2400+ chip and a 80 GB hdd. Oh and a 500 Watt PSU
