Sunbeamtech Silent Storm / Silent Twister Case Review

Build a complete PC without any screws ? Nearly, because a few screws are still needed, but thanks to several tool-less mechanisms all drives up to the hard disks, as well as the expansion cards can be installed without any screws. After the recently published test report of the Sunbeamtech Tuniq 2 case, there’s now the current Mid-Tower from Sunbeamtech reviewed on ocinside.de This inexpensive case appeared with the name Silent Storm and got the name Silent Twister within Europe. … Continue reading Sunbeamtech Silent Storm / Silent Twister Case Review →

The handling of the interactive AMD Pin-Mod guide

The handling of the new interactive AMD Pin-Mod guide … Very important, if you’ve already an option to change the multi in your BIOS, you HAVE TO change this multiplier to “Autodetect” !!! (unless you just like to use the unlock function in the Pin-Mod guide) The same applies to the Vcore, please also leave the Vcore settings of your BIOS (if existing) at Default respectively at Autodetect if you like to change the Vcore with the Pin-Mod guide.And please … Continue reading The handling of the interactive AMD Pin-Mod guide →

Interactive resistor to get the color codes for resistors within seconds

If you also don’t like boring color tables to find out the colors for your requested resistor, you can type in the desired resistor value, multiplier and tolerance to get them within seconds. Furthermore I’ve now also added a direct color choice, where it’s now possible to get the correct resistor value over the arrows of each color. This way you’re able to use the old resistors out of your drawer instead of buying new ones 😉 The new color … Continue reading Interactive resistor to get the color codes for resistors within seconds →

Interactive tape it guide – Increase the Vcore of Intel Slot 1 CPU

Slot 1 Tape it guide – An easy way to change Intel Slot 1 CPU Vcore. The interactive sites will never end and another site will come very soon. But today i’ve published the new interactive tape it guidefor Intel Slot 1 CPU veteran. Everyone who own a piece of adhesive tape or nail varnish could increase the core voltage in a few minutes. It’s also possible to cut the pins but i wouldn’t recommend it. Just relax and watch … Continue reading Interactive tape it guide – Increase the Vcore of Intel Slot 1 CPU →

3 possibilities to get the Athlon system to a new speed record

There are 3 possibilities to get the Athlonsystem to a new speed record: – You can carefully increase the FSB clock with SOFTFSB / BUSRACING / CPUBOOST and if it’s possible with your mainboard, adapt the Vcore a little. The advantage of this method is that you don’t have to open the case and you don’t need to use the soldering iron. The disadvantage is in the limitation of the CPU rate, because you should only pull up the FSB … Continue reading 3 possibilities to get the Athlon system to a new speed record →

ABIT KR7 and KG7 (RAID, Lite) VCORE MOD

It’s very easy to increase the Vcore of Abit KR7 and KG7 (Lite, Raid) by soldering just one resistor to the right point to allow your CPU much higher frequency. Of course it’s necessary to be very careful if you’re soldering something on your mainboard in order not to kill your board. And of course your warranty void if you solder anything on your mainboard ! Therefore i recommend a good grounding and a soldering station with seperate grounding ! … Continue reading ABIT KR7 and KG7 (RAID, Lite) VCORE MOD →

The interactive AMD Athlon 64 online overclocking tool

After the well-known interactive painting guides, interactive product ID guides and further interesting and meaningful Tools to overclock the processors, today the break-through for the simplest overclocking of current CPUs succeeded. Because so far it was completely unclear, that in fact all AMD Athlon 64 processors actually have an identical core, which is set industrial to the respective speed by a special Burn in procedure. This absolutely new discovery makes itself the interactive online overclocking tool of ocinside.de to use, … Continue reading The interactive AMD Athlon 64 online overclocking tool →

Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory

Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory: You can easy estimate the maximum cache speed with these few steps. Look at your cache part and you’ll see some numbers on it like 12345-33 The last two numers will mean that you’ve 3,3ns cache. If there’s a 3-digit number at the end you don’t need to calculate something because it’s already the cache rate in MHz. Calculate the following formula to get the allowed ! values: 1 : 3,3ns * 1000 … Continue reading Calculate the maximum rate for the cache/memory →

Celeron FSB change

How to change Celerons FSB > 66MHz: If it’s not possible to change the FSB of your Celeron to higher frequencies than 66MHz you have to cover up pin B21 with a adhesive tape or nail varnish. Nail varnish have the advantage, because you can easily fit it over the hole pin and use nail varnish remover if you want to undo this. But that’s your choice… It’s easy to locate this pin – over these pins are some small … Continue reading Celeron FSB change →
