I'm sorry but i'm gonna call BS on your "monster system" running a dual processor system i do not doubt, but i really doubt the overclock you claim to have. the stock speed of the 2100+ is 1.73ghz. 2100+ is only the perfomance rating for AMD to compete with intel processors. you claim you run the processors at a speed of 5200mhz. thats a 3470 mhz increase over stock speed. when running a dual system having 2 processors running at 1.73ghz does'not equal 3.46ghz. You may have a overclock but yet to for increase of speed but 200mhz many people use watercooling inorder to keep the processor from burning up, but yet you make no meantion of watercooling. Dual processors DO NOT double your speed. Dual procs are meant to distribute the work load between the two procs.

O YA go over to overclockers.com and educate yourself. Do that before calling anyones BS

One thing that your are right about 4200 Mhz instaed of 5200 Mhz

Also I would like to clarify that the Video Card is overclocked with RivaTuner not CPU

And you are Wrong because Dual processors do double your speed , Its just that there is not enough software out there that is designed to take advantage of MP

Ok let's all calm down, they're just plastic boxes after all. I figure you can spend thousands and thousands from month to month to stay on top of technology, or you can spend about a grand a year and be adequately set up. If I were going to blow money on something, I wouldn't put it into a computer. Maybe a reef aquarium or something - oh wait, I already do that.

Bert, what kind of price can you get on blank CD-R's? If you can get them to Alberta for about $0.30 each including shipping, I'd be very interested.

I think we both have the same source Are your's Fuji too ?

No, in the past I've had Xenon (no idea where they're from, but they were pretty good), then some generic white/blues, now generic silver/greens, which I am low on. My plan to import them from the USA didn't work out.

The highest overclock for the 2100+ is only 2175 thats still only 4300mhz by your math :rolleyes: and they sure as hell are using water cooling

look at this thread i've made about this thread on another http://www.genmay.com/showthread.php...genumber=1site


we are in agreement (see link) 2cpus do not equal twice the power, the workload is distributed arcoss the two CPUS. I can put two V-8 engines in my truck that doesn't mean i have twice the power. If your running window XP pro which you should for a dual system right click on my computer got too system properties tell me the speed in says on there.
there may be a few program to use twice the power but the whole ponit of SMP is share the workload on the cpus

heres an article on SMP http://2cpu.com/FAQ/2cpusmpfaq.html

but to say you have twice the power all the time is unreallistic

I think this thread has moved beyond the buy/sell/trade forum...

Chad

Indeed it has. Please continue this in the lounge if it needs to be continued. Thanks!! :razz:

Streach I wont debate you on the subject of MP because you and your buddies are obviously unarmed.

Now go and get a life


Admins Please close this thread I will have to start another one some other time because this one has lost all relevance
