bgnatewv2 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 Ya, Find bigreds Guide for future referencee. you should see difference in games however, u gotta fix this first. 562050[/snapback] Ok, The first quote doesn't belong to anyone in this conversation and second I did a fresh install of Windows XP, but apparently no one has been reading previous post before posting themselves. Nerm.... I have 4x512 of Kingston Valueram could this be the problem?? Since the word value is in the mix I would assume that this is not good enough??

That is why I didn't bother suggesting a clean install. So, you can't really say "no one" now can you? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchalogamer Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 Yeah ppl around here tend to be too supid to read...so yeah, what are your temps, is thermal throttling disabled yet? (not sure where it is on an MSI board ) Also List your COMPLETE system specs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgnatewv2 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 I am not sure where "cpu throttling" is located in your specific mobo, but try looking in the advanced settings section of your bios. Also, how much memory does this system have and what are the specs of the memory? Remember that having quality memory is very important with an AMD system. 562048[/snapback] I read your posts before posting myself. That is why I didn't bother suggesting a clean install.

I'm at work right now so I can't play with the cpu throttling, I will have to check it when I get home in a while. Yes!! I'm glad to see some of you reading I will have to re-tract my previous wordage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swifty11212 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 make sure cool-n-quite is disabled. also your board uses a via chipset... also check to make sure spread spectrum is off also. and run benchmarks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchalogamer Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 ok thoes temps are kinda high for stock voltage...my 3000+ @2.37 on stock cooling was runing cooler than that It MAY be throttling itself at that temp, though i doubt it, definatly try it when you get home and we'll got form there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing I noticed is you are using Kingston value ram in a 4x512MB setup. What are the timings? I am willing to bet that memory is being a bottleneck. btw, CC I am insulted! If you had read the post right before yours you would see that I was making a statement that I read all posts. practice what you preach lol. j/p with ya!

I am willing to bet that memory is being a bottleneck. 562108[/snapback] Try to OC with just one stick of 512MB RAM, use also a divider to be sure ..

Nerm Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 I didn't see your command rate in that list. Do you know if it is set to 1t or 2t? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disabled the Quiet n Cool mode and I'm fixing to check on the driver updates. The RAM timings they look alright....right? I'm not really seeing where the RAM could be the issue, however I am definetly not an expert on all this,lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
