    newbie making a new comp plz help

    Yeh, the San Diego core seems decent if you've got money to burn. Also, I believe you can overclock a 3000 past the base clock speed on the 3500 too.

    Unfortunately not. I'll rip it all out and put it back together again at some point, that sometimes sorts everything out. thanks for the suggestions though :)

    newbie making a new comp plz help

    I'm about to build a new systemfairly similar to this... For your CPU go for a Venice core, they are with out a doubt the best AMD 64 you can get for a reasonable price. As for which model, I've been looking into this recently and it seems you can get a Venice 3000 overclocked by a crazy amount...

    Linux Distribution Recommendation Thread

    I started on Debian/GNU Linux and still use it to this day, but this definately isn't the best distro to learn with. Debian is great but the installation is enough to drive anyone crazy (best using FTP to install the base system) and I get nothing but trouble from it about my GeForce graphics...

    CPU problems...

    Nothing running which should reduce the clock speed... I tried messing about with the CPU multiplier, but anything other than auto ended up with my computer failing to boot up and me having to reset the BIOS. Any suggestons appreciated maybe pulling the processor out and putting it back in...

    CPU problems...

    I've got a CPU problem and I also need some advice... Firstly, I had been noticing poor performance from my PC recently and then I suddenly realised while booting that the clock speed was displayed at 1150MHz. This a bit odd considering it has been running comfortable at 1533MHz for about the...
