    Stuck at 235 frequency.

    I have an Opteron 144 (CACJE 0605) running in an Asus A8N SLi board and I seem to be hitting a brick wall at 235 CPU Frequency with a 9x (standard) multiplyer. Whilst this gives a rock steady 2.2 OC at 40C on the standard cooler, Im sure the Opty will go much quicker. I dropped the...

    AMD 64 3500 not posting.

    Cutting an image out of plastic

    It may well be a bit ols school, but try using a Coping Saw I would have suggested a fine blade in a jigsaw, but that could be difficult with the curved surface of that front door. Be wary using the Dremel since you can melt the plastic. Personally speaking, I think Dremels (and rotary...

    Sandblasting Acrylic for cool etching

    I did the same thing on 6mm acrylic but it worked just as well on a CD cover too. Just make sure you cover the area's you dont want etching with plenty of masking tape or something, and wash the lot down in warm soapy water afterwards or you'll end up with dull area's. Another little tip...
