    Anand's X6800 vs. FX62 Article

    That is an ass whooping if I've ever seen one. The best part is at the end of the article where the Intel price cuts are shown. I see some new [H]ardass folding boxen on the cheap in the near future!!!

    Morning all. I'm trying to see how far I can push my Barton 2500+ with a MachII. Problem: 2 256MB sticks of TwinX PC3200LL will not allow the system to boot over 200MHz FSB at the default aggressive timings, even at 2.8v. What RAM, timings, and voltages are you guys using to get those uber...
