You gotta keep that sucker cool if you are gonna watch those movies. 303905[/snapback] The computer I'm on now has an Intel Celeron. lol..... I don't think it could handle that much porn. I think anything that shows a nipple causes it to lock up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nater006 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 The more thermal paste you use, the less effective it becomes. Thermal paste of any kind is most effective if you only place a small single drop over the die of the processor. Anything more than that just makes a huge mess and doesn't do anything to help cool the unit. 303589[/snapback] Well no.. didn't exactly slop it all over the place. I know how to use the correct amount... but, likewise, i have seen others lose CPUs to condensation build-up because they didn't learn the finer points.

nater006 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Celerons aren't too bad... they suffer in the L2 cache size and bus speed, but.. they work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamin_Demon Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 I saw a website sometime ago (2 years or more) where a guy drastically over clocked his cpu and used a liquid nitrogen setup to cool it. Had frost and shit all over it, but he claimed it ran until he got rid of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Intel Celeron GAG! You poor poor man. 303915[/snapback] LMFAO It works great for word processing, which the computer was originally purchased for. My wife made it through 4 years of college on this hunk of shit. Windoze Task Manager shows me that its buzzing along at 84% CPU capacity with 2 browser windows open. Most of the time I can't even watch MPGs because they get all choppy n shit. I have to watch them on the shops computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 I am running an AMD 3200+ with 1GB Hyper-X DDR, 200GB SATA HDD, MSI K8NEO Motherboard, GeForce 6800 w/ 256MB DDR, Sound Blaster Live Audigy 2 Platinum, CD/R/RW/DVD/DVD-R/RW drives, 500watt Dual Fan PS, I got my case all modded out with the typical windows, LED fans etc... i have a 9" blue Flourescent light in the bottom of my case. The cool thing is the new cooling system, which is why I was selling the liquid cooling unit. The new one uses the cooling system off a miniture freezer. I made a new heat sink that is sealed and runs the liquid coolant (R-34) through it. I have the condenser unit mounted under my desk to keep my feet warm. lol. Its almost totally silent, the only noise is the fans on the PS, and a real low humm from the coolant pump. It works a lot better than the liquid cooling system. My best yet was 3.44gHz at 63 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it would hurt the pocketbook after a few months of runnings. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed350x Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 3200+ is your clock frequency 2.2gHz is the actual operating frequency. Really long explaination to tell you why they are different... Basically every processor runs slower than the number they stamp on it. That's why we love to overclock them. Most good setups can get the operating frequency almost on top of the clock frequency. If youc an get he two match exactly, and have a cordless phone nearby that runs on that same exact frequency you will have a perfect jammer setup. We used to do it in the apartment complex i lived in. A lot of phones operate at 2.1gHz, so you get a 2100 AthlonXP and fiddle around with your bios until you get the two to match and it woudl kill the phone signals in any of the rooms adjoining the room you have your computer in. fun fun.

nater006 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Eheheheeh.. hardware wars.. My work machine: Pentium 4 HT, 3.2 Ghz 2GB PC3200 (excessive, yes,but they ordered it -- not me) Adaptec 29320 scsi card, and dual 72GB U320 (15,000RPM) scsi drives (not raid tho.. not yet ) DVD+R/RW That's the meat and taters. yadda yadda yadda The other one is running dual Xeons with a similar config, but U160 SCSI (still faster than SATA.. mwa ha haha!). 3.6ms access on a 15,000RPM drive... it is downright insane. SATA still can't touch it. ----gonna piss off a few people here----- and none run Windows. I use an OS that actually KNOWS HOW TO MANAGE MEMORY (Linux). Virtual memory? Blahhhhh.. hasn't used it, ever. So, needless to say, it runs fast fast fast. Plus, no antivirus products, spyware/spamware/adware, or bi-hourly security updates because some overpaid lazy ass at M$ can't code worth dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
