    Re: Post your system.......

    +12v is only CPU, Drive Motors, Fans & some of the Video.
    Chipset, the other IC's, Drive electronics, RAM, and all the rest are on 3.3v and 5v.
    .
    +3.3@20A, +5V@20A, - probably isn't really.
    That 20a is the max assuming the other isn't doing anything.
    If you look at watts for combined 3.3v and 5v and do the math you can't achieve 20a on both at the same time.

      I'll check the label when I get home. I'm pretty sure it has combined specs on it. The numbers I got were just from a web search. Also, the 460 GTX has two PCIe power connectors, which are +12 and gnd, so I would imagine it's pretty heavy on the 12v

          Here's My Setup:


          Main Tower:


          Inside Shot:

          (A little tight in here I probably should have gotten a full tower instead of a mid tower, oh well, cooling is still fine just difficult to work in)
          Specs:
          CPU: Intel Core2Quad Q9450
          Motherboard: Gigabyte EP45C-UD3R

          Computer Sound System:

          Some people use standard PC speakers, I use a vintage Marantz 2015 receiver and two Athena satellite speakers. I have yet to find any PC speakers that match the sound quality at anywhere near the price.

            Nice Marantz... I have a 2220b that used to be used with my computer, but I retired it pending a rebuild and refresh.

                                I've used both a Epox 8RDA3+ and a Abit NF7-S with it

                                2.3ghz was on Air too....
                                That's nothing for that type of Barton! I'm already at 2.4 with a regular Barton.

                                And 2004 T'breds can do 2.3 easy. Earlier T'breds should hit 2.25 at least.
                                Unless it's an "AIUCB", which consistently are low rank in OC databases and my T'bred 2000+ AIUCB 02xxx couldn't even do 2055 Mhz without Prime95 giving me an error. And at 2055 Mhz, I also will get a "STOP: 0x0000009C MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" BSOD when playing Goldeneye.

                                There's a wall at roughly 2050 Mhz.

                                And at 2.1, it only made it to the Windows desktop once! Within approximately 1 minute, get Windows XP pop-up "Windows Explorer encountered a problem and needs to close" and then rebooted on me. And then afterwards, at 2.1, the Windows boot loader usually reported NTOSKRNL.EXE being missing or corrupted or just fails to POST. Windows 2000 (A different run) wasn't actually corrupted. The boot loader just kept spitting out that error message, because it was xtremely unstable.

                                My 2004 T'bred 2400+ KIXJB was much better, 2.25 Ghz only required 1.70V with Prime95.
                                And 2.37 Ghz was a sweet spot for my 2400+ KIXJB, didn't require more than 1.75V for Prime95.

                                2.4 is tricky. But, I was able to run some Prime95 without an error or crash back in August, 2004 with 1.85V, IIRC.

                                            by canadaboy25
                                            Hey guys,

                                            I have an Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 motherboard with AMD RAIDXpert. I set up a 1000GB RAID1 array on it. This was about 8 years ago. Every once in a while, a power outage or something would knock one drive offline and degrade the array. After a reboot the drive would be back online and it would rebuild just fine.

                                            Recently, a drive dropped offline and the array became degraded. I figured it was no big deal and rebooted then set it to rebuild overnight. The next morning I took a look and both drives had dropped offline at 70% rebuild. Uh oh.

                                            I rebooted...

                                            Hi,

                                            My Dell Precision T7910 died after enabling onboard SAS controller and applying RAID settings. There were no hardware changes between working and not working state, only setup (via bios -> controller settings). After applying settings and reboot PC turns on, flash leds (normally) but there's no further action, it just stays on with no graphics and no keyboard led's on. There's no Dell logo, nothing. I've tried resetting bios by jumper, replacing cpu's, replacing ram, removed/replaced cmos battery, disconnecting all drives etc. I've also dumped .bins from mobo chips SLI1 (16...

                                            by tbalint3
                                            Hello All,

                                            I am trying to repair an old Abit ST6-R motherboard.

                                            The symptoms are the following:
                                            I got it in a non-working state. I was told that it sometimes turned on, but many times just the CPU fan was spinning and no other signs of life, the board didn't POST, and now it doesn't POST at all.

                                            It was full of bulged electrolytic capacitors, so I replaced all of them with new Low-ESR ones, but it didn't solve the problem.
                                            If I install a CPU in the S370 socket, only the fans are spinning and no POST. There are no beep codes even if the RAM DIMMs...
