Any sticky please?

Hi, please read my post here (http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread69265.html) for posting, and also you might want to note what things you are attempting to change in the BIOS

This is a guide to upgrading and/or installing memory. There seems to be a lot of confusion, so I'm posting just about everything you'll need to know.

Determining what type of memory you need:...

This is a post for all the people that come here looking for help. Sometimes people don't post everything we'd need, and a lot of information keeps on getting reposted (an annoyance to everyone I'm...

Just buy any ATX case that interests you, unless your intent on getting a smaller (and hotter) case, which I don't think you are. ATX will fit just about any board. Only servers, and select few mobos...

I use a Foxconn C51XEM2AA and I can clock the 3800 up to speeds of 3GHz no problem, just make sure you have the cooling solution you need, otherwise you'll end up frying the cpu before you even get...

Try this http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/. Run memtest from the startup, you need to make this a boot cd by the way. Take out all the sticks and run em' 1 at a time. You might have a faulty DRAM...

The risk would be that your computer won't boot. The lower the memory timings(higher settings in other words), the more voltage the sticks of ram eat. If you have manual overvoltage on your mobo,...

What are you rated voltage and current voltage settings? Geil has a problem with setting default voltage, you may need to increase the voltage, sounds like some of the DRAM modules aren't powering up...

Your memory settings (speedwise anyway) are set by FSB:DRAM setting, if you noticed this in CPU-z. On some motherboards (that have the feature) you can change this ratio to increase your memory...

You're going to need to know the type of computer or the motherboard before you can decide what RAM can go in it. What determines what RAM can be upgraded to is the mobo, so you need that info. If...

Clicking sound huh? Still got the warranty on the Hard Drive?

http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php CPU-Z can help you out with determining the FSB. The FSB, on a mobo that will permit, is a setting in your BIOS, or very rarely nowadays, a jumper on the mobo itself,...

Make sure part of the wire of contact isn't exposed on the LED connector, the power button's contact always has current going to it as long as the power connector is attached on the mobo. You can...

Aside from the memory, I looked em over twice, you should be set. Couldn't wait for newegg.ca huh? =D

At your experience level, I would say overclocking isn't a good idea. Even if you got an idea of how to, I think you'd end up damaging your system. A Sempron isn't really worth overclocking, because...

You memory can only run at one speed uniformly. You can put those 1 gb sticks in your system, but your mem speed is dropping 144mhz, if your running games and such the higher speed memory will...

Socket A was the last socket for a dual socket MB, socket 754 introduced the 64bit series of processors. 939 intorduced their dual core X2 series. You won't find anything about a dual socket that's...

The memory dimms do not have to match, not in speed nor cas latency etc, you may put whatever you wish in the slots. There are a few exceptions to this however. First, if you are running Dual Channel...

Depends on what game you wish to play, and how much you are looking to blow on a new system. I recently upgraded to Athlon 3800 X2, I got a foxconn AM2 mobo with the 590 SLI MCP chipset, 2 GB of...
