maybe u should flash your bios , my asus A7N8X didnt support bartons too in the beginning, but with a simple bios flash it does

okay, flashed BIOS yesterday. still no 512Kb cache.

but the guy who helped me said there were bartons with only 256Kb cache. is he right or does he mean a T-bred B ???

uhm afaik Barton = 512kb cache.

14th April 2003, 03:42

maybe your version of wcpuid doesn't recognize the barton, and misreads the cache

14th April 2003, 11:12

no, it's the latest version I DL'ed from their site.

ya well, I'm just going to live with this cpu.

And I'm thinking of also looking for some H²O cooling. (I'm here at a lan-pary with like 30comps now.) And I guess 58° isn't that good.

thx again guys.

Just FYI , AMD has 2 AMD XP 2800+'s!
there is a 256k one (2.25GHz)
and there is the Barton one (2.0GHz) with 512k
you prolly paid alot for yer AMD XP 2800+ (FSB333, 256k, non barton)

yea, I know that.

I ordered a barton, but it's a T-bred.

ya well, got my money back. I'm pleased.

a free T-bred?

17th April 2003, 18:57

nah, just the difference.

don't know how much it was. (my paretns took the money since they payed half.)

and I hate the duwbass who builded my comp. (couldn't do it myself for personal reason reson)

I wanted AS3 and an alpha pal ot SLK-900

he: volcano + 2€ coolinbg paste is good enough. --> 60 ° !!!

replaced it with AS3 --> 55°

doest the pc builder give you a "offerte" before you buy/sy yes?

if there stands: slk800/tube AS3
then he is obligated to put that in there,if not ask money:grin:
