Neo4-How much is too much?

I have a k8n neo4,athlon64 3500+ clawhammer,2x512 corsair VS pc3200.
I have been reading about oc'ing for a while.Finally got the nerve to try.
I am currently at 230MHz FSB without a hitch.I did set the HTT to 4x to avoid the 1100MHz cap mentioned.
CPU temps are still 38C-40C.
Am I shortening the life span of my components by doing this?
What FSB will the corsair value select ram start to crap out?
Thanks
BTW this thing is flying 

oc does shorten lifespan of components. howmuch is anybody's guess but i read somewhere that it could take off upto 5 years.
as for ur ram, the only way is to oc ur ram and see how far it goes. the easiest way to do this is to drop the cpu multiplier to something like 6, raise fsb and probably vmem as well.

  • How Much is Too Much?

    Hi everyone,
    I have recently been using my macpro more and more for high-def video work. I usually leave it on 24 hours a day as at night I set up a batch of files in compressor to run over night. Essentially, all my CPUs are maxed almost all the time. I am wondering if this could become a problem? I have read a little about average loads but don't fully understand what they mean. Mine are: 8.60, 7.58 and 7.42 and I am getting pretty high temps on my CPUs, power supplies and hard drives (about 44C, 54C and 39C average respectively). Am I pushing this thing too hard? How much is too much? Please see my system specs below.
    Thanks a lot!
    ~ Philip

    Don't let the drives get to 70C! they can take 50C safely. Memory and graphics are more of a concern. The cpu will protect itself.
    smcFanControl can insure that your fans stay above the default minimums, which is worth taking a look at (freeware).
    Fluctuation in temps between extremes can stress a hard drive and memory.

  • How much is too much music on itunes?

    im uploading a lot of music onto my itunes, for two different ipods, and i dont know if i put too much music on if there will be a lag or anything
    can someone please tell me how much music a computer can take before significantly slowing down?

    As long as there's at least 1GB of space free on the hard disk at all times and the iTunes library isn't stored on the Finder's desktop, you shouldn't experience a major slowdown regardless of how big the iTunes library gets.

  • How much is too much to wait for the computer to work

    I need some help and ideas on this one since I am about to throw out every Apple product I have out the window.
    Let me try and keep it short:
    got my iMac end of June
    it crashes mid September
    took it to authorized service, told it will be fixed in two days, took them 35 days
    since I got it back it was always crashing and not working properly even though they said they replaced the hard drive and logic board and that that was the original problem with it
    about 20 days later when I saw there are too many problems with it to me something minor (internal mic never worked since I got it back from service, crashing all the time, iMovies won't open because of some mess in iPhoto library, etc)
    Apple sent on site repair, the guy replaced 7 parts in the computer!
    7-10 days later, the computer shuts down in the middle of the movie and won't turn back on.
    Before sending on site repair guy, the senior adviser told me that if the repair doesn't get my computer to stay working, I will get my computer replaced. After the computer died this last time, I called him and can not get him to call me back. I actually called him twice this week, in his work hours and didn't get a call back. So I guess all their "I am so sorry for the inconvenience, we will get to the bottom of this and get your computer working or replace it" is just bs they tell you to get you off the phone??
    Now the new senior ad. says I will get replacement if this repair doesn't work. Also was told I will get a call back from repair service in 24 hrs, which didn't happen. So here we go again! I even called the very first sen. ad. I got the number from - yes, you can guess, never heard back from her either.
    I have a list of 4 or 5 senior advisers that all tell me to call them if something we agreed on doesn't work, but I never can get to them nor do I get call backs.
    So out of the 5+ months I had the computer so far, it worked as much as it was broken. Now with holidays coming, who knows how long will I have to wait.
    This is really frustrating, to be told they will fix it or replace it yet I keep having to deal with not having a working computer.
    Is there anyone that is above the people that keep giving me their numbers without actually following up that I can contact and find out when can I get a working computer that doesn't have parts breaking down every week!!?!??!??!?

    It's been almost more than a month since nokia released it,,, and it was supposed to be a worlwide release on oct 24th,,,, i don't feel like waiting for christmas nokia,,,,, we want the symbian belle preferably before the end of november at least..
    Belle firstly has not been released.
    secondly Belle will not be released for existing symbian ^3 or symbian anna phones till after the whole world has Anna, to which Canada and Australia and some other places still do not have.
    And lastly Nokia do not do world wide releases, they are released based on carrier approval.
    So when it is released it will be given to the carriers first for testing then once approved it will then be released to the public. If it is not approved due to errors it will be taken back and fixed, then resubmitted for testing and so on until it is approved. However if the carrier just says no they dont want it released, then Nokia will not release it at all to any customers that are on that carrier.
    So just like Anna, you will have to wait till it is ready and testing has been completed and the carriers give the approval.
    Skyee has confirmed that Belle will not be released until after the Anna roll out is completed.
    Please be patient

  • Managing projects or how much is too much? 40Gb+ library and growing

    Hi all Aperture users. First let me tell that I'm quite happy with 1.0, 1.5 and new 2.0 versions.
    One question still bugs me. How big Aperture library can be, is there a limit. My library now is 40Gb, I've started using referenced images when it was 10, but with every time I plug my card in, and import images to my Library, it becomes bigger and bigger.
    Backing up those files is not a big issue. My referenced files have 4 copies (2 copies on DVDs, one in DMG file on computer and DMG file backed up with Time Machine). Same goes to my Library, Time Machine takes care of that, and every now and then I open Aperture.library package and manually drag and burn those projects and folders.
    Here's a question:
    With library file constantly growing, is there a limit on the size or is it just the size of my HD? Every time I add Gbs to my library, I notice Aperture performance decreases. What is the size of you Aperture library?
    And the main thing is, would Apple ever consider changing Vaulting feature in Aperture so you 'extract' project or folder of projects completely out of the library, back it up somewhere and load it back when you need it without replacing whole library? There is a way of doing it manually, Show Package Contents, remove folders, project files, burn them and rebuild library next time Aperture loads. But it's not really 'Apple way', it's not cool nor pretty.
    What's your take on this?

    "if it sounds good it is good"
    I do not disagree with what has been said but personally I do not use this above statement as the "final say" in my work. By definition it is only as true as your monitoring - and your ears! Your ears can get tired and mislead you. What sounds great in the studio can be a nasty surprise elsewhere (or just the following morning!). You obviously cannot eq anything without listening and your ears obviously lead what you do with a mix.
    All I'm saying is that as you get experienced you will also do what seems right to your head as well as to your ears. If I have to eq a vocal by 15dB I know it will likely sound "eq'd" and unnatural. That might be what I want. that might be what "sounds good" but if I'm trying to achieve a natural sound I might wonder why I need to apply such gain and consider alternative solutions.
    I think the fact you have asked this question demonstrates you are on the right lines with how you are working. I'm an advocate of cautious eq. never twiddle knobs (virtual or otherwise) randomly until "it sounds good". Sit back, listen, think about what you need to do and then try it.
    Don't forget about cutting as well as boosting. Indeed most folk find that reducing frequency bands rather than boosting tends towards a more natural result - so if you want something to have more "middle" pull back the "top" and "bottom".
    If I'm struggling with a mix it is nearly always due to bad or excessive eq. It is rarely the other way round.

  • How much is too much heat?

    I just got my Macbook last week and have seen the issues with the operating temps. I installed the CoreDuoTemp utility today and have noticed that my notebook is running around 122 degrees (F) while it is in use. Slighly lower when it is sitting idle. This is on a flat desk surface. I dont really hear my fan running at any time either. Should I be concerned with this level of heat or isit somewhat normal.?

    I've heard these new MacBooks are getting pretty hot, though I don't know how normal that is. I used a Powerbook G4 titanium for years and it got pretty hot as well... don't know if the new MacBook's get just as hot or hotter since I haven't used one. On another note, seem even PC laptops get hot as well though, my ex had a Compaq laptop and that thing got hot enough to cook an egg on underneath. Sooo... I think for the most part, this scenerio is normal, especially with laptops...
    And "ovenbook" ... like that term!

  • Too Much Fan / Too much spinning Beach ball

    Hi: My 10.4 iMac Desktop (with max 2 Gg SDRAM, and 50 Gig HD space still available) seems to be overworking, or something.
    I get a lot of Spinning Beach ball , and quite a bit of fan work. My most common applications: Addres Book, Mail, Safari, Appleworks 6 (which seems to really stink now).
    One perpetual problem (which I posted elsewhere): I can't BACK UP my ADDRESS BOOK. When I do, it leaves me with spinning ball of death for hours until Force Quit. Yuk.
    I "Repair Disc permissions" monthly, and just checked/ Verified the HD from the original 10.4 Discs. All is aok.--no repairs needed.
    Computer is 3 years old. Want to stay on 10.4 (I need to use Classic 9). But, are there some general or specific things I can do to keep my computer happy?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    You might want to check the drive for errors... you will need your system restore disk.
    Testing and repairing a disk or volume
    When you have problems with a disk or volume, use Disk Utility to test and repair it. Disk Utility also reports the S.M.A.R.T. status, which tells you whether your disk has hardware problems that will cause it to fail.
    To repair a disk, you need an administrator's password. If you don't have one, ask an administrator to repair the disk with Disk Utility for you.
    You can verify your startup disk with Disk Utility, but to repair it, you must start up your computer using another disk. For example, you can use your Mac OS X Install disk.
    In addition, you cannot test or repair write-protected disks, nonrecordable CDs or DVDs, or disks with open files.
    Close the files and quit the applications on the disk that you want to repair.
    Open Disk Utility, and select the disk in the list on the left.
    Click First Aid.
    Check the S.M.A.R.T. Status at the bottom of the window. If you can't see the S.M.A.R.T. Status, be sure you selected the hard disk your volume is on, and not the volume itself.
    If the S.M.A.R.T. Status is "About to Fail," back up your files on the disk as soon as possible and replace the disk.
    If the S.M.A.R.T. Status is "Verified" or "Not supported," click Repair Disk to repair the disk.
    If Disk Utility cannot unmount the disk, be sure you have quit any open applications and click Repair Disk again. If it still cannot unmount the disk, repair it just like you would repair a startup disk, by starting your computer from another disk, such as your Mac OS X Install disk.
    If Disk Utility tells you to look for links to corrupt files in the DamagedFiles directory, some of those files are overlapping on your hard disk and are likely to be corrupt. Examine the affected files, each of which is listed in Disk Utility's output on a line that begins "Overlapped extent allocation". Most of these files have aliases in the DamagedFiles folder at the top level of the affected disk. If you can replace the file or recreate it, delete it. If it contains necessary information, open it and examine its data to make sure it has not been corrupted.
    If Disk Utility cannot repair your disk or reports "The underlying task reported failure," try to repair the disk again. If that doesn't work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat your disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and restore your backed up data. If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced. See an authorized Apple dealer for more information.

  • I selected manually manage music for my iTouch yet it keeps trying to sync to my entire music library.  I do not want that as it is taking up too much space.  How can I stop my iTouch from continuing to try and sync so I can manually manage my music?

    How do I get my iTouch to manually manage my music?  I selected manually manage, yet every time I hook my iTouch to my computer, it attempts to sync and load my entire library.  I do not want the entire library as it takes up too much space and I don't want all of those songs on my iTouch.  What am I missing?  What else can I do? 

    Oops, sorry, I think you probably already did what I suggested (turning off auto synch).
    I have the same question - how to synch, say, just one playlist.
    There is an option to synch only things that are checked. But everything (in every playlist and item, is checked and there doesn't appear to be a box to "uncheck all", nor can you check each playlist individually.

  • How do i get rid of these dumb icons on my menu bar. they are not useful and they take up too much room. why did you do this?

    i just upgraded to the new version of firefox. for some inexplicable reason, you've added icons to the left of my personal menu choices in the menu bar. these icons are purely decorative, they take up too much room, and now i can't display as many clickable items in the menu bar. extremely irritating. if you are going to add junk, at least give us the option to not display it. is there a way that i can turn off the display of these useless icons?

    thank you! that worked! appreciate how quickly and accurate the support was.
    that said,
    it would be nice if the icons were the add-on,
    and the default was no icons.
    i'm sure the majority of your users would prefer function rather than fluff.
    thanks again, mj
