AMD is a quality chip. I have an 800 Duron oc'd to 1000 Mhz and have been running folding@home 24/7 since Feb. and have had no problems. I benchmark a lot higher than a lot of the pentium guys at our local lan parties.



My oc signature:

EPoX 8KHA

800Mhz AMD Duron @ 1000Mhz 7.5x133

512 Mb DDR ram PC2100

Radeon 64Mb DDR vivo

Tt Dragon Orb 3 @ 7000 rpm 50C Tops

wtf is folding@home

 

Nice Mix-a-lot paraphrase! B)

 

Bahh, Folding@home is weak, if you want a real test, run Distributed.net.

On a side note, Distributed.net is what killed my computer recently, it had both of my 1 gig pentium chips running at %100 steady, and overdrove my puny power supply, wasted the mobo. its ok though, got another one coming. I miss that computer Dual PIII 1Ghz cpus and some nice peripherals that I was able to save

Dude folding keeps your cpu at 100% all the time also. I've been running mine 24/7 since last Feb. with no problems. You have to keep an eye on your temperatures. I've got a 7000 rpm cpu fan that sounds like someone left the vacuum cleaner on but it stays cool.

 

phins why haven't you jumped in on this?

 

i got asus slot a k7m 750 amd 512mb sdram gforce 2 i have run xp 2000 millineum 98se 95 but i prefer 2000 trouble free

i like AMD. Intel doesnt have **** on amd for Gaming. Maybe recently with the brand new chips, but the price just doesnt Justify. wtf would you spend more than 2x for a processor that is slower than the same clock speed?? Gaming wise.



im running a Duron 800@1000. Asus A7V mobo, Asus V7700 GF2...Gaming rig that still rips ***.

 

i got 750 athalon and a7v-how did you overclock, did you connect terminals back on processor? just cur. thinking about it myself.
