<0> hey
<1> yo
<2> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150122 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150130 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150130 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150099 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150133
<1> Sakkath: why not ATI?
<2> 2 are 6800XT's and 3 are 6600GT
<2> HighRo||a: I'm a linux user
<2> I would try to stay away from that $162 one if possible
<2> I'm just not sure which of these to get
<3> skeelo: i think that ATI already have drivers for linux
<3> ups
<1> why then u need such powerful gfx
<3> sakkath:
<2> Yes
<1> u dont play games
<1> and get 6800XT!!!
<2> HighRo||a: i will dual boot with windows, plus i'll play UT2004 on linux
<3> heheh
<2> Malphas: they do, but not as stable as nVIDIA's
<3> true
<2> Don't try to dissaude me from nVIDIA, :-p I've got my mind set but not sure which to get though
<2> HighRo||a: there are two 6800XT's I linked you to.. the first two..
<2> HighRo||a: which should I Get, to have a good price as well as good performance
<4> Hey all
<1> Sakkath: XFX PVT42EUDP7 Geforce 6800XT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
<1> yo fool
<1> it has ddr3
<1> and 256 mb
<5> do sata 1.5gbs cables work with 3/gbs harddrives
<1> way better than ddr2 128 on 6600
<1> they do but only 1.5gbs
<5> oh
<5> i heard there's like barely any noticable difference
<1> well
<1> thers no difference
<1> if u dont have raid 0
<3> where
<1> Malphas: sup
<4> there's no difference
<3> fsckin where!3~?
<2> HighRo||a, Malphas: thanks much
<2> See you guys later :)
<1> c ya G
<2> lol
<4> no hard drives exceed 100 MB/s on a single channel, and Sata 3 Gb provided 150 MB/s
<1> thats right
<4> err, 1.5 Gb provides 150MB/s
<1> yup
<1> thaats sata
<1> sata2 has 3
<1> aka 300mb
<1> but just so u know sata 2 has only bout 55 to 60mbps read write disk speed
<1> constant
<4> MBps
<1> so u better get 2 sata2 drives and connect them into raid 0
<4> small b is always bits
<1> u know what i mean :)
<4> nah, that's not true
<4> my raptors get around 70 MB/s all on their own, and the burst speed hits 150 MB/s
<1> an why is that
<1> oh raptor is raptor
<4> the limitation is the hard drive mechanics themselves, not the interface
<4> Sata 3G is a waste of time unless you're using those dual adapters to run two drives on a single channel
<1> i got wd sata 2 and it goes around 55 60MBps
<4> Hard Drive limitation again
<4> burst is only good for how big your cache is, so like 8MB or 16MB of data, after that, it drops down
<4> and write speed is always slower than read
<1> yeah
<1> basicly
<4> now the iRAM could benefit from SATA2, if only they'd make it work at Sata 2 speeds
<1> what is iRAM
<4> its a solid state disk drive card from Gigabyte
<4> uses DDR memory up to 4 GB as a hard drive
<1> yeah
<1> heard of that
<3> foolkillr: have u some thermal paste issues or somethin?
<1> lol
<4> eh?
<3> im a thermal paste expert, and u can trust ur problem, if u have one
<4> are you now, heh
<4> what brand of thermal goup do you think is best?
<6> mmmm thermal goop
<3> foolkillr: Arctic
<3> the best! i can trust me!
<4> heh, I've never used Arctic
<6> dosnt do much without a nice hsf...thats what I know about it
<4> I have some generic silver thermal paste though, but I don't use that
<4> used the stuff that came with my Xeons
<6> see what im saying
<6> You may as well brush your teeth with the artic if you HSF is junk :>
<4> I ended up getting rid of my cpu fans though
<4> annoying 5500 rpm Intel Xeon coolers
<4> replaced with this: http://www.nerdnos.net/pics/fkxeoninsideduct.jpg
<6> duct work
<6> mmm
<4> $25 for the entire mod, including the fans
<4> its way quieter, and it runs cooler inside now
<3> foolkillr: whats the brand
<4> el cheapo generic
<6> home depot
<6> :]
<4> Home Hardware actually, heh
<4> its just dryer ducting
<4> Temperature: (Case: 44C, CPU: 38C, CPU: 38C, Fan 1: 1670RPM, Fan 2: 1973RPM, Fan 3: 1906RPM)
<6> Temp: [Case] 29.0C [CPU] 54.0C
<6> :/
<4> The Case is actually the VRM module
<4> CM Stacker works nice for cooling a Xeon system though
<6> nothing will cool a prescott
<1> lol
<1> yeah
<1> intel sux
<4> my Presscot P4 630 runs around 43C or so
<6> this is idle
<1> mine amd 30 max 35 fsb on 250
<4> heh, depends on what's in the system though
<7> anyway to test to see if my ram is bad?
<6> HighRo||a: this intel was the best when I got it
<4> I have a couple raptors and a couple WD drives in here, as well as a BFG Geforce 6800GT OC
<4> best is a relative term nowadays
<1> Jefreymon: my old man has the same one, and its **** in comparison with mine amd
<4> most people's needs are met by an old P3 1 Ghz, heh
<4> don't trust benchmarks eitehr
<6> I have an AMD x2 3800+ as well....its not ALL that
<4> they are full of ****
<7> anyway to test to see if my ram is bad?
<4> yeah, install Windows
<4> if it crashes, its probly bad
<4> or take some sticks out and try em one at a time and see if you have any problems
<6> there is memory testing software...not sure how good any of it is
<7> Windows wont install if its bad huh?
<7> wont even swtart huh?
<4> generally no
<3> sksapps: try memtest86
<4> sometimes it does
<4> if you have flakey ram instead of actually bad ram it can run
<4> software memtests rarely ever work
<8> giving me ****in
<8> REFurbished ****
<7> thx
<8> exactly fool
<6> SKSApps: you could try http://www.memtest86.com/
<8> u need to buy a piece of hardware that can test your ram
<8> thats the only way u can truly test other then that
<8> if works dont fix it
<8> >=)
<4> or just pull it all, and run em one stick at a time to see if there are any problems
<4> if you have a crash on one stick and none of the others, you probly have a bad stick
<8> if he got errors
<8> narrowin down the stick will be easy
<8> exactly
<8> unrar a 2 gig
