8/6 I overclocked my FSB and memory and AGP. Everything worked fine for
about 20 minutes. Then things started to crap out. I went down again.
But the AGP video card is... um, fried. Word of advice. If you must
OC your computer, make sure you do it during the first 30 days,
when you can return the components back to Frys Electronics.
\_ the "better" motherboards allow you to change the system bus w/o
changing the AGP bus
\_ Word of advice: don't overclock your computer unless you can afford
to buy all new parts every 6 months because even if they survive
the first 30 days you're still pushing them beyond spec (it's
called overclocking for a reason) and running them hotter than
they're intended, thus they will die sooner. Do you *really* need
an extra 3 FPS? No. You really don't.
\_ I think reminders like this are funny and important. Don't reply
to spam. Don't OC old hardware. Treat every gun as if it's
loaded, unless you're pretty sure it's not.
\_ No. That's "unless you're pointing it at someone you don't like"
\_ Wow. Lots of dumbasses on the motd today. More than usual.
No wonder some people are into guncontrol. -- gun owner
\_ Excuse me, but if you could stand still for a moment, I'd
like to check to see if my safety is on. Thanks!
\_ What AGP card was this? By "AGP" I hope you don't mean the AGP bus.
\_ You can OC the AGP bus but it's a *really* useless and stupid
thing to do. Tell your friends, be the life of the party! Buy
a new video card! Make my Nvidia stock go up! |
