This is what I am thinking. Perhaps it was just a quirk of the Tyan though I don't see how/why as even my SK8N will run old Sledgehammers is D.C.

IDK ny_driver but you seem fairly new to the game so perhaps it is simply user error on your part. Forgive me if I am being presumptuous.

LOL funny he put SLI in quotes.


Funnier still is pronouncing it. SLY. Which is old school speak for a manly man that "prefers the company of men" (EDIT: I originally put light in loafers, but that was totally wrong lol)

I damaged the IMC removing the IHS. Won't post on any board in DC configuration.

Will the smaller L2 of the 4200+ hurt me in benchmarks vs a 1MB L2 per core chip?

[Mr.Scott]

Probably. You're running a maimed chip is most definitely not going to help your cause.

I wish I could find a good Toledo for a decent price.

I sold my Opty 180s...they weren't as good as the 170 though.

Should be able to find one of a decent model and stepping if you shop around. Opty's are more expensive on average but a higher model X2 can be expensive as well.

Check the "For Sale" sections of whatever forums you frequent and you'll probrably run across a good deal.

BTW, I'm Kryton.

[ny_driver]

Yeah maybe I'll find one.

It's a real shame I damaged the 170s IMC because that thing cranks pretty good. Haven't even tried it on the Ultra yet.

Good to see you.

Bad position for me. I'm out.

Eh - Don't sweat it.

I'm sure you've done worse in your time.
