I was kinda un prepaired for this... i bought a 2500xp at "57 .. it arrived booted it up.. and it says 3200xp :| not that i am complaining but i now have to have my small fan and both the side panels off to keep it cool.

So any one who has a fan willing to sell for a reasonable price would be muchly appricated :)

yeah you better check that really is a 3200xp and not a 2500xp with fucked up jumpers. else you'll probably end up noticing a burning smell.

Post 3

Haven't notice any burning smell.. i have checked it and re checked it...

FSB is at 400 (333 was the max for a 2500) and third party programs rate the cpu at 3200xp, 2.191ghz

I just say i am one very lucky person.. they usually cost in the 500mark :\

But yeah really need a fan...

Post 4

$700 +

Thats 400mhz FSB baby!

Nice work w00p!!

Post 5

Hey w00p.... wanna swap ure 2500, for my 2800???

Post 6

I've tried that already, she said no :(

Post 7

But when a chick says no, what she really means is ..... "Insert Creativity here"

Post 8

ohhhhh 2 bad :(

Oh Well I'll still kick her ass

By the way she now claims her comp, kicks ures Neo.... lol sif have 500GB

Post 9

Sif i dont :)

Post 10

Well ryan it technically kicks ur comp too.. in speed wise..
Kinda crap though i have all this really great stuff.. and still running a geforce2 mx400 :( I think i know whats on the shpping list :)

It probably still is an 2500+, The FSB on the 2500+ will go to 200x 2 easy and will still work with stock 2500+ heatsink fan.

Your motherboard has just set itself wrong.

Post 12

Ryan's PSU fan isn't working. That means his whole comp is a ticking time bomb.

Tick ... tick ... tick - you hear that man?

Post 13

No no, it is working
Duh, I FIXED IT ALL!!

Duh

Post 14

You didn't mention the PSU fan when you posted about the other stuff you fixored.

And don't say duh. I'm known to murder people who say duh.

And w00p - try out what Tachi said - its not real likely that they gave you a 3200+ instead of a 2500+.

Post 15

Default the bios, not in bios, using the jumper on the mainboard.

Quite possible you recieved a 3200, just not logical.

If you have any questions pm, icq, msn me blah blah blah :)

Post 16

I was there helping her setup the system. All the jumper settings are correct (All set to Automatically Detect). After everything we tried to find the CPU speed, they all said the same thing. Posting said it was a 3200, bios says fsb is at 400. Win2k says its a 3200, 3rd party programs say its a 3200 @ 2.191Ghz. Not once, anywhere did we find any indication we had a 2500. Woop got lucky.

Now the only concern is getting a proper heatsink/fan (Using stock atm) as it does heatup quite alot.

Post 17

I got heatsink and fan capable of a 3400 here at work Volcano 10, small

Have u read the actaul CPU for speed?

Maybe you did get lucky

I'm sure woop will get back to you about the Volcano 10.

Post 19

no no
Unseen means
Read on the actual CPU, what it says
wether its a 2500XP or 3200XP
Its very unusual for a 3200 to run hot, Im thinking thats it just the 2500, o/c to 200fsb..
just check, or it maybe short lived

If 3rd party programs read it as a 3200, it doesn't matter, they just read what the BIOS tells them to read.

If u clock it to 333fsb, it all then reads as a 2500XP

although it is really weird because it's detected the multiplier for a 3200 as well, as the 2500 runs at a differant multiplier.

Just read the CPU for us, will ya?

Well iam thinking that they supplied a 2500xp fan.. there for it would be usual for the 3200 to be running at a high temputure which is why i need a fan.

I dont' want to check it yet too lazy (plus i don't want to be proven wrong.. YET :P).. but some1 tell me why the hell would it be reading at 3200? I am only using the fan it supplied me with.. so no overclocking is being done

Here is what i am being told.....

Unseen any chance of being able to get a fan off you before DGA? Even if it is a 2500 i will still need a new fan.

pfft :lol: Kicks my comp
u wish

1 GB of RAM Rules over a 3200 :D :D

lol, grappy GeForce 2 :D

Post 23

I have a 3200+, it's speed is 2205mhz, I checked it using my CPU monitor utility I wrote and wcpuid.

If you want to make sure you have a 3200+, check the bottom of the processor, it should have it written on the underside of it exactly what it is. If you still need a fan, I might be able to let you have mine providing the other fan I have for it is able to compensate.

If you did get a 3200+, Woop shoots, Woop scores!!!! WD :wink:

Post 24

Look at the numbers on the CPU die. They'll tell you what it's supposed to be.

Might help, then we'll know if it's being OC'd or not.

Post 25

As I said, I have a 3200+, I paid for a legit 3200+ so I have the fam for it, I won't sell it to you, I'll just give it to you

This is a well known fault, try upgrading ur mobo bios and it will start to read as a 2500+, but if u want to run it as a 3200+, u will need a slk900 with a 92mm, fast fan (at least 60cfm), or water cooling.

Personally i would go for water cooling as u can use it on ur next systems.
