PSU and CPU cooler for Mega PC 651

I got my hands on a 2nd hand msi Mega PC 651 for free because the case does not contain any CPU cooler and PSU.
Where can I bye these components?

Hi Lewis,
I presume you are refering to this guide?

I don't think there are any better instructions, other than what you might get with the CPU. Here's some breif comments that may or may not help though:
Get an anti static strap and attach it to earth, (ie I leave my main PC plugged in and attach to it's chassis, when working on another PC)
Your CPU may be attached to the heatsink with thermal paste, if it is be very careful
On my 865 the CPU heatsink is screwed to the motherboard, it may also be held on with levers. Disconnect it as appropriate
Once the heatsink is loose gently remove it, you may need to lift one side first or it may lift the whole CPU out
Once the heatsink is out lift the CPU lever, the CPU will easily lift out
you may wish to remove the old thermal paste from the CPU and heatsink, I use ArctiClean 1+2 check your CPU supplier for options
put the CPU straight into an antistatic bag
Only when you are finished playing with your PC insides should you take off the antistatic strap
If you are still unhappy with these instructions try checking out the Intel or AMD website for help
Hope this helps
cheers

  • Recommend compatible PSU and graphics card for P35D3?

    Recommend compatible PSU and graphics card for P35D3?
    This weekend I’ll be taking my rig to a PC repair shop and ask them to swap out my PSU and my graphics card.
    Because I’ve RMA’d all the components (see signature) several members of different forums, and the tech support of the various components, seem to think that my boot problem is because of a compatibility issue with either my Ultra X3 600W PSU or my XFX 8600 GT and my P35D3.
    I need to be ready to make decision, without having time to research, if the repair tech recommends a replacement.
    Here’s my considerations:
    I selected the Ultra because it's both modular and 85% efficient (it also has the required 8-pin cable to power the P35D3's CPU and it has SATA power cables.
    I selected the XFX 8600 GT card because it is dual-link (2 DVI outs -- Dell 30” & Viewsonic 19”) and it has no fan, and is DX10 ready. I’m not attached to the idea of no fan. I’m a speed freak but not a gamer or an over clocker--I like the option of trying out games.
    Both the Ultra and the XFX are somewhat medium priced.
    If the repair tech discovers that other PSUs or graphic cards work then I might be able to get Ultra or XFX to accept a return. Neither company accepted my offer to pay extra to exchange mine for another better model.
    Suggestions please.
    Thank you,
    Kerry

    Hi,
    You can use Performance Monitor and add the required counters.
    Check the below Technet article on Performance Monitor.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749249.aspx
    Below are the steps to monitor the process in Performance Monitor.
    - Go to the Performance Monitor. 
    - Right-click on the graph and select "Add Counters".
    - In the "Available counters" list, open the "Process" section by clicking on the down arrow next to it. Select "% Processor Time" (and any other counter you want).
    - In the "Instances of selected object" list, select the process you want to track. Then click on "Add >>" button. Click on OK.

  • Memory and CPU load for one Oracle instance

    I need to design a database server with 5 oracle instances.
    Each instance have only 2 or 3 connected application users and the rate of transactions is about 10 transactions/hour.
    How can I estimate to total memory and CPU needed for my server ?
    The minimum esimation : 2x2Ghz and 2Go of RAM per instance is it pertinent ?

    DominikThough the picked specs look okay but the better answer, as being mentioned already, would be "it depends" . At this moment, almost all the machines are coming with very good specs so 2gb probably would be the least . You can even have a 4gb RAM system with x86_64 architecture , leaving room for future growth if needed. About setting the memory for the SGA, if the release is 11g, setting the Memory_Target would take care of the the memory allocation for both SGA and PGA and you can start by the default that Oracle picks which I guess is about 40% of the total RAM. Afterwards, you can monitor the performance and can bring down the memory settings if you feel its overly allocated.
    That said, I think that this is a question better answered by the capacity planning and management people. I shall see if I can ask my friend, who is in this domain to comment on it.
    Just my 2 cents.

  • How to remove cpu/heatsink from Mega PC 651?

    I'm looking for detailed instructions on how to remove the cpu/heatsink from a MSI Mega PC 651. So far the manual has been useless and the Quick install guide isn't even about the MEGA PC series. Can anyone supply detailed step-by-step instructions on how to remove the cpu/heatsink safely?

  • Pls advise PSU and CPU temp.

    At last i have decided to go for Herolchi HEC 525w Dual Fan Ball Bearing ATX Power Supply, after installing the New PSU my CPU Temperature go up by 3 degree...not sure whether all the RAIL will effect the temperature ?
    Pls take a look on my comparison : -
    Old PSU Young-Year 480W (Taiwan)
    Vcore    : 1.48 ~ 1.50
    + 3.3v   : 3.10 ~ 3.17
    +   5v    : 5.08 (no changes)
    +  12v   : 11.64 ~ 12.00
    System  : 35 ~ 38 degree
    CPU idle : 40 degree
    full load  : 57 degree (Prime95 & CPU burn-In)
    New HEC 525W (recommded my Intel and AMP)
    Vcore    : 1.47 ~ 1.50
    + 3.3v   : 3.30 ~ 3.36
    +   5v    : 4.97 ~ 5.0
    +  12v   : 11.76 ~ 11.88 (never hit to 12.00)
    System  : 36 ~ 39 degree
    CPU idle : 43 degree
    full load  : 60 degree (Prime 95 & CPU burn-in)
    Understand that all the variance for the above RAIL are within Spec +_ 5%
    Hi All, pls help to post all your RAIL lowest/highest for +3.3v, +5.0v and +12v..as well as system/CPU temperature, thanks....

    I would not worry about the extra 3 Deg. C that the CPU is now running at. 60C under full load is well withen normal specs. ..As for the new PSU, I am not familiar with that brand...If you could ,would you POST the AMPS on the RAILS, as that is more important than the Volts...You can find the AMP specs. on the side sticker of the PSU..ie..+12V=?A, +3.3V=?A, +5.0V=?A...THANX..Sean REILLY875

  • Cpu cooler for K9N6PGM2-V

    Hi!
    Can someone please recommend me a decent CPU cooler that fits K9N6PGM2-V board, will be used for Phenom II x3 720 CPU.
    both memory slots are used.450W power supplier.
    i am intending to over clock it as well.

    What are you planning to do with it?
    If you're not overclocking, then the standard cooler that comes with retail boxed CPU will be just fine.
    i bought this CPU without retail box, so without cooler ,and i do want to overclock it in the future.

  • CPU Cooler for 870A-G54

    Ok I need a CPU cooler that won't block a RAM slot. I have an Arctic Cooler 7 currently but it is so wide and short that it blocks my first RAM slot.
    I am not oc'ing but I don't think the stock cooler that came with my Phenom II X2 is sufficient with the other 2 cores unlocked.
    Anyone currently using something that won't block that slot?
    Thanks in advance!

    A inch off: wlahdone, much dust gathered in front of the processor fan, on the graphics card, tells me you can improve on the air flow. Two ideas:
     - A stronger exhaust fan.
     - An air filter of some kind for the intake fan, or turn it off completely.
     - A tower processor fan that directs dust towards the exhaust fan.
    Yes there is some dust on the HAWK That has accumulated since i ve bought it, high quality ~1 year dust
    I usually clean the video card on the other area Don t want to disturb something with static as it works.
    For already 2 months i ve replaced the case with a Nexus Clodius and indeed i may put the front fan to the mobo and set it at a lower speed (as the included controler sets them both in same time) ,to create that required air pressure.
    And the case alows me to put one on the top of the case as well.I usually use a Cooler Master TX2 for the CPU and that one does send the air to the exhaust one.
    It s a little off topic and i m sorry ,but Fredrik provoked me

  • CPU cooler for HP Pavilion m9340f

    My CPU fan is kaput. Already replaced fan once. Wanted to replace whole unit. Nothing fits. Old heatsink is screw-in. Can't seem to find replacement unit with screw-in heatsink and 4 prong fan plug. I've searched Fry's, Tiger direct. Now using unit that doesn't fit and is bad for long-term survival of cpu. Any suggestions? Motherboard is ASUS IPIBL-LB, called Benicia by HP. Replacement heatsinks for socket 775 seem to all be punch-in units.

  • Which CPU Cooler for AM2 board

    Hi!
    Right now i am just running with the Box cooler from sempron 3400+ on my K9N-platinium board.
    I hope soon to get the AM2 Mountingkit for my Noctua but it can still take 3-4 weeks, so i am looking for another cooler untill then.
    I know it is different from country to country which cooler are available, but which Cooler do you use?

    ok, you didn't mention the OC-ing part in your post. like always, i would suggest zalman if you're after something cool and quiet 
    My Bad ;-)
    Right now my Sempron gets 1.45V and running 2400mhz...in prime stress test 2004 it gets up to 42-43C.
    I think around 1.4-1.25V probably would be enough, but the Atrix 500W psu that a have in the system right now is not that stable.
    Anyway, i'm hoping to hit 2600MHZ with the right cooling.
    The Cpu temperature is taken from Core center !!

  • Quietest CPU Cooler for K8N Neo 2 Platinum Motherboard?

    I am just now getting around to concentrating on making my system as quiet as possible (without water cooling).
    Searching the forum and the net, I found lot of favorable comments about the Zalman 7700 cooler, but their website indicates it will not fit on the K8N Neo2 Platinum.  Has anyone actually tried to see it if fits or not?  Also if it does fit, will it work with the MSI stock backplate as I do not want to have to remove the backplate.
    Any suggestions for other CPU coolers that are quiet that are known to fit on this mb?
    Can people who have had experiences getting CPU coolers to work with this MB please post your experiences here?  If there are sufficent replies to make this thread useful, I will add it to the sticky section.
    Thanks.

  • Problem with motherboard and cpu cooler

    First of all , hello.
    Let me present my current pc.
    Mainboard - MSI 880GM-E41
    CPu - Amd phenom x2 560 black - unlocked to quad
    Ram - 4 gb kingmax DDR 3
    Video - Gainward GTS 450 512 DDR 5
    Hdd - Western Digital 640 GB
    Power suply - Sirtech 400 W
    Now the problem.I bought a Scythe Katana 3 cooler because i couldnt stand the noise from AMD stock cooler anymore.
    The cooler RPM in idle/load / full load is 2800 RPM (maximum !) Shoudnt the mainboard set the cooler's rotation to match the processor current usage ? My cooler stand in maximum rotations every single time.
    Note that my temperatures are excelent.
    I took a look in Bios and could find much.
    H/W Monitor
    Cooler - 4 pins selected
    Smart fan target - disabled selected.Guess this is the automatic option.I dont wanna set it to manual in order to give some values.
    Amd cool and quiet - enabled (tried it with disabled too , same deal)
    C1E support - enabled.
    Would updating my bios to lasted available solve this problem ? I wanted to do that but i wonder if updating the bios would interfere with my unlock of the processor's cores.
    Thanks you very much.

    Yes , it is
    I dont actualy have an "enabled" option....just disabled or some values.
    I heard from a friend that :
    Smart Fan Target - the critical temperature from which the fan starts to grow in rotations
    Cpu Min.Fan Speed - the desired rotations per minute in idle
    Is this correct ?
    Im thinking about
    First - 45
    Second - dont know....i have to test with different values.
