Halo AlphaMale Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I just received my new x2 3800. Yahoooooooooooooooooo! My system is as in sig right now. Do I need to do anything as far as the bios? I mean voltage for instance? I am probably going to put speeds at stock (200mhz) before I pop in the new processor. Secondly, would it be better to just add 2 more 512mb balistix tracers, or would I be better off replacing the 2 512mb's with 2 1gb sticks? In other words is it better to use 4 sticks or 2? I sure would like to salvage the 2 512mb modules I have as they have worked flawlessly @ the speeds in my sig. I mean not one glitch no matter what I have thrown at them for weeks now. Thanks in advance for advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boppo Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 You definitely want to go back to stock settings before you change your processor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halo AlphaMale Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Ok, as I said I did plan to set stock speeds before the upgrade. How about the memory someone? Also what is stock volts for x2 3800? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe stock volts are anywhere between 1.35 to 1.45 as per AMD's web site...Though when I first got mine and had it at auto it hovered around 1.29 no probs...I have since overclocked and it now stands at 1.39 at 2.5GHz...Nice right? Also using a XP-90... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
