Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
Yes, silly me! Picked up a new Sempron 3300+ for $75 which is essentially a XP 3200+ Barton. Unfortunately it ended up being my (2nd) shit Antec TruePower 480W toasting caps on the 5V rail which is what Asus A7N8X uses for vcore causing the problem. Problem now is tracking down a reputable (non-antec, by principle) PSU w/ 5V rail = 40A which are near non-existent given modern ATX12V 2.x emphasis on 12V amps paltry 30A or less 5V rail.I see great used ones like a OCZ ModStream, but like a car, you can't be sure the last driver didn't abuse it. ;) Thanks to all who made offers! mark.dodge wrote: Did you ever get one?

Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
Bite the bullet? thanks Chris, you writing the check on that new system for me? AM2, Are you serious? Personally I'm waiting for the Asus Rampage to ship I will build a Q6600 Intel system, screw AMD. Meanwhile the XP box is more than capable of playing HL2 at decent frame rates and has a brand new AGP video card (had to replace that dead 9800) useless on a PCI-E system. In other words perfect for the kids to game on, hell it's been enough for me. So no I did not want to spend $75 on a CPU only to find it was another shit Antec PSU that is now out of warranty. Certainly did not want to then have to spend another $50-60 on the seemingly no longer made by any quality company ATX 1.3 PSU. To dump an otherwise functional system over $150 in repairs to keep it running vs. $1000+ for new makes no sense to me esp. with two kids and only one other game pc in the house. Saving grace, I may be able to resell the XP-M that is not the problem after all. I know I could resell the Sempron break even despite Chris' surprise. ;) Chris Reeves wrote: $78?!?!?!

Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
Yes, I'm being serious. Ok, let's say $78 is the max you want to spend, and you have a new AGP video card you want to use. Fine, you can grab an AM2 with AGP (they exist, SIS) for about $33. Grab an AM2 Processor for $35, and a stick of 1G for $10. Bam. You just spent $78. And you ended up with a LE-1150, yeah, a blah board but you support your video card, and off you go. Sure, you'd still be cooked to find out it was your power supply, which is a given, but on the other end, your DDR and other components (like the Asus board) would sell to make up about 1/2 the distance. :) I'm not talking about spending a ton of money.. but an LE-1150, a chip you can grab OEM for less then $35, would be easily the equal and superior to a Sempron whatever SocketA, the board wouldn't be, but you'd keep the AGP card so who cares, and you'd get better SATA, USB, etc. support. Just saying, if your budget was $78, the combo is out there ;) CW -Original message- From: j maccraw [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 17:51:34 -0700 To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU Bite the bullet? thanks Chris, you writing the check on that new system for me?

Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
I see what your saying but you know me well enough after all these years the last thing I'd do is grab some sis board in a casual fashion. Could be the greatest thing since sliced bread but it's more than I want to go through. Appreciate the thought but this is a EoL patch-up to give the kids that would not have cost me this much if I had simply suspected the PSU to begin with. Shit it would not have been an issue if the Antec scumbags had built the PSU right or at least stood behind their steaming pile of excrement. CW wrote: Yes, I'm being serious.

Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
The issue with the twin-die arrangement on the current intel quadcores is that it's not the northbridge that generates the FSB wall, it's the blend of both cores and the need for everything to communicate properly, I've had an E8400 on a 500Mhz FSB (P35 chipset) for a few weeks now and it's very solid but the QC's seem to cap the FSB to around 460-470 or so. It's feasible that no chipset will get around that, sadly :/ although stranger things have happened. http://chryx.shacknet.nu/wolfdale4250.png On 20 Feb 2008, at 03:35, Greg Sevart wrote: I was considering moving to X48 in the coming weeks in anticipation of a 45nm quad-core upgrade (currently running a 65nm quad-core part at 3.2GHz on P35), but I think I'm going to hold off on the mobo move until P45.

Re: [H] Need AMD XP Sempron CPU
Oh, the chipset plays a huge role. The communication you speak of is (largely) regulated the NB in question. An exaggerated (because it has other problems) example is the 680i chipset. Even P965's are generally capable of running higher FSBs with QC chips than it can. Alternately, you can look at the RD600 chipset. It provides special tuning methods of the AGTL+ bus timings (only Core 2-compatible chipset that can do this as a tunable option as I understand), which have a -huge- impact on QC overclockability. I still intend on getting the Q9450 or Q9550 when they're out, but probably won't be able to push it to the limit until P45. Yes, two dies will always limit what FSB you can hit, my argument is that given a chip technically able to hit the high FSB, the chipset plays a very substantial role. Probably even more important, however, is the motherboard itself...but given that P45 should give most makers their second stab at a design based on a chipset with native 1600QDR FSB support, I'm hopeful that we'll see the best QC OC results yet with it.
