TPU's Nostalgic Hardware Club

That Pentium D suddenly shuts down when OC is over 4300. What the hell is the reason :S

Maybe I'll put a crazy overvolt and try again.. :toast:
 
well so is my X1950GT super AGP from Xvi ... or my Sapphire X800GT in my AXP build

who isn't a X800GT R480 http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/962/radeon-x800-gt-agp.html
but a X800GT R420 http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2103/radeon-x800-gt-agp.html

pretty confusing ... xD

but the X1950GT is a true R570 http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b2107/xpertvision-x1950-gt-super-agp.html (and the Xvi did cost me half of the price of the X800GT ... doing a GPU collection can get pretty weird ... )
If I remember right they used both chips, they kinda used what they had in stock or something like that.
e: Sorry for double post. :)

yeah and some R420 X800GT where flash able into R480 enabling the 4 Pixels Shaders 4 TMU 4 ROP they missed ... if lucky ... (i might try ... who knows :D )
 
Alors comment en français appellerait tu cela?Tu me fais penser à plusieurs Canadiens qui chialent contre le Canada mais qui refusent de foutre le camps dans un autre pays.

je parle pas de la traduction mais de la consonance.
bon stop ca vas pas dans le cadre du thread

In fact the mod enables 8 pipelines, since X800GT has 8, and XT(PE) has 16 ;)

Connect3D at least had those X800GTO's

Speak English please. Even my English sucks but I still write in English. I think that no one would undestand if I would post in Finnish.
 
kyllä todellakin siksi sanoin se ei kuulu lanka ;) mutta ei hätää, kaksi virkaa french olivat hyödyttömiä :D

aproximatively ... :roll:

next hunt ... finally getting a Willamette ... if lucky ... every time someone outbid me
KL_Intel_Pentium_4_Wilamette.jpg

and i missed this on Ricardo.ch ... nobody until 2 minutes before the end ... 20$ ~ then MADNESS STRIKE CRITICAL and price up to 650
SGI-re2-ge10v.jpg

nah the X800GT R420 has 8/6/8/8 and the R480 14/6/14/14 (i meant flash a R420 to a R480 X800GT not fully enabling a XT PE :D )
 
Hahah that google translate Finnish :D

Do you have a S423 mobo? Hope u get that, those are sweet even they are slow as shit :)
 
Hahah that google translate Finnish :D

Do you have a S423 mobo? :)
well .... no ... i need a S423 mobo to add a CPU to my CPU collection ? :D (and yes they are sweet as room heater and Intel's shame P4 1st shot bwahahaha)

and yep ... google raw translation is ... approximate ahahah (albeit i translated English to Finnish and then Finnish to French to check and in french it has totally the meaning i wanted to give ... weird :roll: )

or i could ...
"D:はい、確かフランス私はそれがスレッドの一部ではないと述べた理由、それはです;)が、2つのポストは無用だった、心配しないでください" (i learn Japanese but only in Romaji)
and this end the useless blabber : pics and nostalgia that's what it is all about!

English is not the only language around. Learning some new language will make you more able and more intelligent. :)

nothing beats that one in my heart, following pics innards (no screw at all and i played with the console like that :D )the thermal pad are still fresh like new (QIII Arena was on the level of the PC graphic at the time.. truly a dream(cast)machine)

The system's processor is a Hitachi SH-4 32-bit RISC at 200 MHz with an on-die 128-bit vector graphics engine (woops ... indeed the SH-4 had a Vector 128bit engine ... mixup ), 360 MIPS and 1.4 GFLOPS (single precision), using the vector graphics engine. The graphics hardware is a PowerVR2 CLX2 chipset, capable of 7.0 million polygons/second peak performance and trilinear filtering. Graphics hardware effects include gouraud shading, z-buffering, spatial anti-aliasing, per-pixel translucency sorting (also known as order independent translucency) and bump mapping. The system supports approximately 16.78 million colors (24-bit) color output and displays interlaced or progressive scan video at 640 × 480 video resolution.

For sound, the system features a Yamaha AICA Sound Processor with a 32-Bit ARM7 RISC CPU operating at 45 MHz,[65] 64 channel PCM/ADPCM sampler (4:1 compression), XG MIDI support and 128 step DSP.

The Dreamcast has 16 MB 64-bit 100 MHz main RAM, 8 MB 4 × 16-bit 100 MHz video RAM, 2 MB system ROM, 128 KB flash memory and 2 MB 16-bit 66 MHz sound RAM.[footnotes 1] The hardware supports VQ texture compression at either asymptotically 2 bpp or even 1 bpp.[66] The VRAM, RAM and ROM (amongst other areas) and all mapped in to a single address space accessible by the CPU.

The system reads media using a 12x maximum speed (Constant Angular Velocity) Yamaha or Samsung, in later hardware revisions, GD-ROM Drive.(thanks wiki... in my bookmark 1st place!)
(the 128bit was the Vector graphic engine) so the CPU really had a 128bit capable part as Sega marketed it :D )


also ... i still have Quake 1 and Resident Evil + Exhumed for it

as you wish

I have missed the whole 423 era but doesn't Abit have decent (OC) mobo's? :)
anndd you missed nothing ;) (but Abit has some good mobo indeed, but the WP4 being prone to heat like mad... you need a good WC to OC )

why not :roll:,i can't either- apparently the site's format doesn't allow/can't

speaking of consoles there are a few i wish we had including the dreamcast, ooooh which reminds me we have one that looks exactly like the original Atari 2600 don't know if it still works or not because i'll have to dig it out of storage somewhere in the house

I got two s478 P4 Willamettes lying about, one @1.5GHZ and @1.7GHz. You may have them for the price of shipping (fees will be like €5 - €15 depending on how exactly I will ship it, in a box or bubble-wrap enveloppe): http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/chevalr1cs-for-sale-trade-thread-eu-only.161792/

PM me if interested, I know you are not exactly in the EU but for you I will deal with customs if you want the CPUs.
 
in fact we can ... rahhh stupid me :D

that remember me i saw one of this on Ebay but the Heretic put a Intel setup from 2001-2002 with win XP in it ... and ask a indecent price for it just because of the O² case ...
i would prefer a original O² or a Octane2

swiss custom : no taxes till a price of 62.50chf (items+shipping) so no biggies ... but atm im kinda in a dead end for 2 more weeks

i keep you updated ;)

edit i forgot i seek the 1st serie S423 your's unfortunately are S478 :D but nice of you for the idea :)

Oh, wrong socket. :(

And I know that given the current value of the CPUs, customs would only mean filling in a form. ;) I just mentioned it because, well, I don know why I bothered typing that... :D I can be silly at times.
 
All languages put together here makes me think of big companies that hire foreign customer service. :P Like Dell Canada when you call for french the customer service is in Morocco. Really another level of french. Hehehe

Still have the Atari 2600 at home like brand new in original box with all manuals also with all remote controllers they made and nearly 60 games.

Nah man, I can speak only Finnish (my native cos I'm a Finn) and English :D :toast:

Well I would like to learn Russian and Korean for example :)
 
My (non-techie) wife went through the closet and found an AM2+ board (Asus M4A79 Deluxe), Phenom II 940 BE, 4GB of Patriot DDR2 1066 Ram, MSI 4850 OC, Generic 550w PSU, CM690II Advanced, etc., and decided she was going to build her a rig, without any assistance from me. I had to help with the stock CPU Cooler mount, but otherwise, she did it all herself. I thought I would share with the old PC loving hardware guys (and girls) how proud I am of her effort to try and get into my hobby.

nice idea... AM2 and AM2+ are still going strong for any kind of task :) even more with a Phenom II, and indeed a good reason to be proud of what she did.
 
Not sure if guys here will fap to your girl or to the rig. :P

Italien, Spanish, French all come from the Latin. So for a native french speakers theses languages are quite easy to understand.
