I know some SA's that are very handy with hardware and basic troubleshooting and some that will discover the problem but take way to many steps in getting to the problem.. Such as swap memory when it is obvious to an expert that its not a memory related problem :D :D

I dont think I will get the prommy soon... But maybe in a few months.. I might just shoot for a Mach 2 complete setup :)

You definitely will have to study for it a little bit. They ask some pretty off the wall questions. Some Braindumps and a quick glance through a study guide and you'd be fine though.:)

Yeah when I do get a prommy I'm gonna get the MachII version. Hopefullly it will be a bit cheaper by the time I get it.:)

Thanks... I think I have an A+ cram exam somewhere around here from years ago!!!

I dont think I would need to get another book.. It should still be basically the same.. With some added components, I guess..

Got my XMS 4000 in today. I've been doing a CRAP load of benchmarking and preparing an IN DEPTH review of this ram and comparing it to XMS PC3500.

Don't ask me for the results yet, the review will be up no later than Friday.;):)

The results have been interesting and a bit surprising.:)

So what are the results? ;) :p

im thinking of doing a real review on overclocked 2.4C on a 865p and 875p (same settings difference chipset).. but ionno.. i want to do original reviews, reviews on other things us overclockers wonder.. like i know i read how people wonder how intel dividers effect their preformance and single channel vs dual channel too thats why i did a review on it, not only for my self but for others to know, please help me think of ideas..

I'm currently writing up a review of a P4 2.4B CPU on a 533MHZ platform compared to a P4 2.4C on a 800MHz FSB platform... Should be interesting hopefully. :)

Ok I am back in the game. I just published a score of 20302. I was running my new 9800p at 432/371 and had my fsb at 265. Does this mean I get the number 6 & 7 slots on the team since I used 2 different cards to do this? Either way, I am gonna make a move for number 5 before the nights out :D

lol..no you don't get 2 spots.:) Only 1 per person.

If you get a score you want me to update just put it here in the proper format.:)

Ok fair enough I will just have to be happy with one score posted ;) I think I will stick with my 9700p score until I break back into the top 5. That score with a 9700p is much more impressive IMO :D

OHH!! MAN!! thats soo close to mine! haha ahh man, i gotta get a new mobo fast, befor he knocks me off!

Ouch... I took a look at the zipped review folder and I understand how it takes you a long time...:o

Ok, I assume we're supposed to edit the file by viewing source then editing the HTML right? I took a little thing about HTML, but I'm not exactly pro, and I was wondering how you put the pics into HTML...

Any help would be great! :D

Basically it's just a webpage with 2 comments in between which you put your HTML.

The template already has all the neccessay tags to give the layout and put in the table. Just add some HTML between the comments.

You can open this in a wysiwyg editor and go from there.

Unfortunately, I won't really be having time to help with the reviews. I'm sure others can give a hand.:)



I started at my new job today, only part time this week and next until my old company closes down for good. The new company I work for has many facets of their operation, one of them being providing corporate support for a local ISP. Right when I got there (my first day today) the ISP got struck by lightning taking out an OC3 line and lots of other stuff. My head is swimming right now. Talk about a crash course. I'm in a huge server room, totally malfunctioning, people freaking out everywhere, crazy. This ISP provides T1s for many local corporations including hospitals as well as DSL services, dial up, frame relay, all kinds of stuff. They have dual OC3s coming in. Let me just say it was a hectic day. I have never even been in such a complex server room and I was in complete shock and awe. These guys I'm with (my boss put that entire server room together) know their stuff but I'm gonna be working my *** off day and night.

I'm still gonna be around but you might not see me quite as much as before. I might have to take on someone else helping to keep the database updated.:)

Cool vert! Looks like your job is gonna be a lot of fun thought, working at something you really love to do!

And I understand that you'll be a busy man, so I'll try to figure it out and if I really can't, I'll get someone to help me.

Thanks for all your hard work! :)

Well I think it's time to take my number 5 spot back. I scored 20359.
Here are the stats for that score.

2.4C @ 3172, FSB 264
9800p @ 434/378
