My new system...:)

Well guys I made it... I upgraded from the lonely days of Socket A and my T-bred 2100+.

Here's what I got:
DFI nF4 Ultra-D
x800 GTO^2
Opty 144

I'm not sure what BIOS I'm running on my Ultra-D, lol. I'll need to find out, then I'll flash to the 623-3 or the 704-2BTA. I need a gig of RAM but I wish I would have bought another stick of what I have now, take a look:



This is just with 1x512MB stick too... This is really weird too as the highest I got on my 2100+ w/LanParty with 3.3V is 235x10!!!! This is 3.0V!!! It's not stable but still. I'm pretty amazed as I feel this can go even higher.

I just flashed my GTO so now I'm running 16 pipes with 450core/490mem.

My Opty is a CAB2E 0545MPMW. The TCaseMax is 57 degrees C.

I did have two problems while building it though. One was the stock HS/F that came with my Opty was a BIATCH to install.

The second was I was supposed to plug in the FDD connector on the motherboard right below the CPU socket, to increase 5V/12V stability right? Well I did and my computer would turn on (like all the fans and lights would come on) for a second then it would turn off. Well I unplugged that and it booted up fine...w t f?

Any ideas on that?

Please, any comments and suggestions would be welcome as I am new to the A64 front...

Any ideas guys? Comments?

Can't you push that opty higher??

Lol. I'm trying to find my my max of my RAM then I'll put it on a divider, then I'll see how high the Opty can go.

Yeah, because it looks a little low for an Opty.

Alright. So I put it on a 9:11 divider and I am now at 295x9 and still chugging along.
