this is the spot.

Cyrix, Motorola....ect

Maxvla · 07-24-03, 08:24 PM

there are others??

Dracknem · 07-24-03, 08:58 PM

I can see a lot of posts happening here. :P

The new G5 I think is made by IBM, and they are in apple. Are they really running at a true 1000fsb, or is it something like quadpumped...

pssssssttt.... make a new thread... i'd like to know the answer to the question too....

This is also a good place for questions that aren't brand specific. For example, a discussion of CISC vs RISC.

how bout the VIA cpus

BigJk-47 · 07-24-03, 10:03 PM

RISC is going to change everything

Thought they still used the motorola CPU's

Aslan · 07-24-03, 10:30 PM

Nope, Apple dropped Motorola (or was it the other way around?), and Apple "jointly developed" the G5 CPU with IBM.

Cyrix! Cyrix is long gone.

Apple didn't completely ditch motorola, they still supply chips for the ibook and iMacs.

Also, isn't this an overclocking forum? Why would anyone be talking about motorla/ibm/apple here?

The DEC Alpha was pretty bad ass... back in the day.

According to the IBM specs for the PPC970 (what Apple calls the G5), the rated FSB speed is 450Mhz, and the effective transfer rate is 900Mhz. So that means they're double-pumping (like the EV6 used by the Alpha and the Athlon). I guess IBM must've bumped up the bus speed by 50Mhz because 1000Mhz is a more magical number than 900Mhz.

It should be noted that as far as the end user is concerned, there's no difference between a 1000Mhz bus that transfers data once per cycles and a 250Mhz bus that transfers data 4 times per cycle.

Anyone else running a Via C3 (usually comes on a itx board)? How high in temp can they go before they blow...?

That, my friend, is what I got my CSci degree on. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling using those, and the Sun Sparc's

I guess this is the spot for the MAC users to chat and ask questions.

Alphas were cool, but Suns I can do without. There's a Sun Ultra 10 in my cube right now that I'm using as a foot rest... and it's not particularly good even for that.

even with a stupidly small h/s my c3 o/c'd to 1.04ghz never hit 55c.

Ducker · 07-25-03, 12:34 PM

Why not stay with AMD or Intel? They're the best.

modenaf1 · 07-25-03, 02:53 PM

ok i post here for different cpu's? my motorola is currently o/ced via a bridge mod to 25 mhz. im whipping your cruddy little 3.0 MHZ intels and 2.2 Mhz Amd's like NO OTHER! what is this heatsink stuff yall are talking about? I never new fans had to be in computers, must be you crappy AMD and intel stuff.

j/k

i didnt even know motoralo made procs!!
