Modified the BIOS on my Soltek 75FRN2-RL to reflect the CPU used :) The other candidate for this is my MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR with a mobile 2400. Thanks @TASOS for the linked guide!

A few of the stuff I'll be working on while waiting for the VP6s and Micronics DX4 to clear customs. - Athlon XP-M 2400 -eVGA Geforce 8600GT 256MB DDR3 - prolly gonna test it further with a Prescott on the P4Dual-915GL, assuming I can rig up a DIY cooling solution for the Prescott. - ASUS...

Now... what to do with all this "power"..? :D

In that case, as lomg as you're comfortable using DDR1 to achieve dual channel, an ASRock 775i65G R2.0 (or Rev 2.03 if you will) would suit better - AGP, supports up to Kentsfield quads, is small form factor, and runs on Intel chipset, which is far more compatible (and stable) than VIA.

That would be the chipset limitation if I remember right... (P4M800 Pro, the bane of my existence...) - I would ditch DDR2 and go with a 865 based 775 mobo depending on the CPU used - if C2D/C2Q is your plan, ConRoe865PE or 775i65G rev 2 and 3 would be suited. If instead you plan on using a...

P5VDC-MX?

Found this 775i65PE this Sunday... a bit limited CPU wise but it's a neat 775+AGP combo. There's a 631 Cedar Mill under that heatsink. Not sure whether to build the AGP counterpart to my 939 Manchester A64 4600+ x2 build w/4GB of RAM (yes, 4GB worth of DDR1!) or just settle for something simple...

Alternatively you could source a reference 7800GS heatsink. As far as I can tell from the backside of your card, the screws' ground planes match those of a 7800GS.

Well, my Sunday's haul wasn't really anything to write home about... except for these two. ASUS CUSL2 kit (MB + SL52R CPU OC'd to 1200 + 512MB worth of SDR + cooler) and a XFX Geforce II MX400, under their former "Pine Tech" branding. MB originally came from a Maxdata OEM PC (it had a big...

Yes, it runs the latest 2.20 BIOS.

I'm at it again :laugh: Remember when I said I got another P4Dual-915GL? Well, this is what came out of it. An HD4870, the Hitachi Ultrastar 1TB drive seen earlier, a few bits here and there, a Northwood HT 2.8GHz, to power whatever insanity I could come up with:

Indeed, it's a 7800GS. Surprised you didn't mention the M-Audio Audiophile 192 card besides it tho :laugh:

To Be Continued (soon enough) :D Y'all with the eagle eyes should figure where the gems are :laugh:

There's pretty much nothing to backup... drive came from a SUN machine as it seems, and had a unknown format all around (would show as RAW in Windows, haven't checked Linux as likely nothing of interest was there.) I formatted it into NTFS and it will serve as a RAID0 or RAID1 storage drive...

92 days... yeah, he ain't budging lol. He'd well push forth until he can't no more. Jokes aside, I'm surprised it runs... its other sibling (same model even) scraped its platters without any reason. Otherwise, I have a lot of HGST/Hitachi/IBMs running. Even Excelstor branded drives, and the...
