Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

I had a slight issue when I was running a 400fsb where it was rock solid in prime and memtest yet BF2 would still randomly drop to the desktop. Dropped it back to 333 with the same overclok and its now fine.

Thats a memory timing issue. Either the ram isnt rated at 400mhz / pc3200 or the latency timings are out of whack... I only ever had that with cheap ram. When I switched to corsair xtra low latency ddr I stopped having problems (and got a better whetstone too)

what is it? besides a brand of jam ? ^

Theres your standard, baseline ram which is good for what its rated for.... but barely...

Such ram is made by Hynix, Legend.... then you have the really good stuff for overclockers and system tweakers, usually its made by Corsair or OCZ or Team Extreme.... not only can they deal with faster FSB's (for when you're overclocking the FSB) but they can also support more aggressive latency timings (which makes the system more responsive as opposed to FSB which is just how >fast< the memory transfers...)...

Will definately be buying corsair next time but that wont be for another year.... need new turbos first >:(

My supervisor is off sick, so me and my mate are making her a computer out of cardboard. i even photocopied the keyboard and stuck it on some cardboard :( that will teach her for being sick.

If she has a cubicle, tape the entrance off and tip a few hundred litres of packing beans into it. Laughs ahoy

I have seen a pic of that, unfortunately we don't have a cube farm here. I filled a guys draw with packing beans once, he wasn't overly happy.

the other thing u could do is use a screwdriver/ruler to pop the keys off her keyboard... then put them back on in random locations... it'll confuse the hell out of her muahahaha

I had a mate try that one on me. Joke backfired because I can touch type and not look at the keyboard :D

He got immensely irritated that I wasn't taking the bait. :) It all started because I gave him shit about how he's an IT 'expert' yet he types with 2 fingers at about 15wpm.

Haha. Whenever anyone says they're an expert at anything IT related, you know theyre talking out their cornhole :)

Other thing is to replace the kb with one of those touchtype keyboards without the letters printed on them. Really screws with novices...

The board is an EP35-DS3 so DDR2. :D

The ram is fine its DDR800 and not overclocked being at 800.

The chip simply has hit its fsb wall at 400; it doesn't like 400mhz; 380fsb is fine. I haven't bothered to find where exactly the fsb wall is.

In the past I've always gone corsair, OCZ etc.. Had a few bad DOA corsair sticks (back in the ddr2700 and 3200 days) touch wood no issues with OCZ.

These days there's no need to go for the top line stuff unless your really after the last poofteenth; 1066 gear can be picked up cheap these days. Run 1:1 - thats a 533fsb of which will easily net 4ghz and beyond; providing your chip doesn't hit its fsb wall before prior. Intels are fairly forgiving to higher latency (unlike AMD) due to their mem controller design.

Save a shit load and buy decent A-data or kingston; you really can't go wrong. Stress it with memtest looping test 5 and then 8; if its bad it will show so return it for another 2.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
