There are a lot more DDR5 kits with XMP profiles than DDR5 kits with EXPO or dual XMP/EXPO right now. What are the advantages / disadvantages to going with an XMP only kit on AM5? The specific kit I have my eye on is a G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 64GB DDR5 6000 CL32 kit which looks like the most...

Working on a new build and after setting everything up it won't boot. The power LED on the front of the case does light up, but none of the fans spin up and nothing else happens. The newegg reviews for the motherboard I'm using show that other folks are having similar issues (bios revision,fan...

Picking out a video card for my new rig and could use some feedback. I'm leaning toward the 6950 1GB since I'm looking to play more demanding games like Witcher 2, Stalker Series, and the Metro 2033 Sequel all at 1080p and the difference is only ~$60 (6850 $140 AR / 6950 $200 AR). My rig so far...

I'm a filmmaker / multimedia guy and am looking for a relatively portable laptop (14, 15, or 16") with at least: Display: 1440x900, 1600x900, 1920x1080 Processor: i5 430M, i5 520M, i5 620M, i5 640M (need hyperthreading so no i3) Ports: USB 3.0, eSata Graphics: <15W if dedicated (i.e. 5430...

Dual channel ddr3 1333/1600 looks fine for the i5 750 since it only runs 4 threads, but are the 8 thread lynnfields bandwidth starved? It's an extra ~$20/4gb kit for ddr3-2000 so for 2 kits it'd be an extra ~$40 which isn't much, but from what I've seen memory faster than ddr3-1600 has offered...

Just installed my new p7p55d pro / i5 750 / g.skill 4gb 1600 combo and my 32-bit vista system info was showing "4.00 GB (1.99 GB usable)" - then did a fresh install of windows 7 x64 thinking that the new os would solve the problem. With windows 7 x64 installed I've still got exactly the same...

I was planning to upgrade my lga 775 q9450 / asus p5q deluxe setup to a socket 1156 i5 750 / asus P7P55D pro setup this week, but idf this week left me confused. I'm a filmmaker who does a lot of HD work so I'm always looking for the fastest (affordable) setup available. Nehalem systems were too...

I'm coming to the end of my contract (Verizon) and am looking at smartphones to replace my current Treo 700W - the screen is small, it locks up a lot, is generally underpowered, etc.. Figured I'd post on here because I've been a forum member for so long and people round here tend to have a...

So I finally got my XFX 8800GT 512MB from the Dell deal about a month ago today and it's got the new cooler with the larger fan (~65mm vs. ~50mm). I'm running ATI Tool right now and after 15 minutes at 700/1750/1000 I'm only hitting 52C - am I missing something here or is this like 40 freaking...

I'm currently running a Highpoint 2322 external RAID card with an Addonics Mini Storage Tower and 4 500GB Western Digital RE2 hard drives. With all four drives in RAID0 mode I'm getting ~250MB/s bursts, ~170MB/s average read, and ~125MB/s writes. In RAID5 I'm getting similar bursts, but average...

I've looked over a few reviews and can't find a good comparison of these two cards after they've been well overclocked. With a VF900CU mounted on it which card could you milk the most performance out of?

Alright, so I've got my new e6400 build finished, but when I power it up the fans power up briefly, then stop, then power up again for longer this time, then stop. That's it - no post no nothing. I've never run into a problem like this. I'm guessing it might be a problem with my ram since it's...

The new 1.3.2.14 amd cpu driver comes as an exe file instead of just an inf which really sucks (for me anyways). Problem is that it wants to install onto a C: drive, but my primary drive is F: so the installer won't even start. Does anyone have any idea where I could download just the inf file...

I know this game has been bundled with a lot of video cards lately (unfortunately not mine) so if anyone has already beat the game and has a copy laying around they'd be willing to sell for $10 give me a pm.

They are both 256mb models. What do you think? Is the speed difference between the two even that noticeable?

I'm currently running a passively cooled gigabyte X800 (the one with the X800XL memory speeds) and I'm getting a bit twitchy and want to upgrade. It's coming down to performance vs. features right now. The HIS X1600XT at ~$180, which has far better media/playback performance, and the the HIS...

Never been oc'ed. Comes in original packaging. My ebay name is dreadnought and I have 146 feedback (98.7% positive). I really want to sell this in the next two or three days if possible so I can swap out this processor before classes kick into gear. AIM me at denreetheeater or just pm me...

What the title says. Black NEC 3500A for $30 shipped. 137 ebay feedback (98.6%). Anyone interested?

After playing BF2 for a while it seems like I get a lot more fps mileage from medium setting with filtering and anti-aliasing maxed out (using Ati Tray Tools) than I do from high settings with lower AA/AF. Running an X800 I can theoretically max out everything even at high setting, but when a...

I'm trying to decide between a XP-120 and a CNPS7700alcu right now and its come down to which one will cool my passively cooled (blue zalman chipset cooler) northbridge better. I'm also using a Gigabyte X800 Silentpipe that could use any additional airflow it can get. Which heatsink do you think...

My 6600gt is running 51C idle and anywhere between 85C and 91C load after running HDR for ten minutes. This temp seems extremely high. Is this normal?? Edit: These temps are at a core overclock of 540 (from 500). Load even at 500 is still pretty high though at 85C.

Playing around with speedfan on my VNF4 I've figured out that Temp 1 is my cpu, Temp 2 is my northbridge, and HDO my hard disk, but there are several temperatures showing up that I don't have a clue what they're attached to. Anyone have any idea where the remote and local temperature sensors...

I'm currently running a venice 3000+ / vnf4 setup and am looking for some new memory to replace my twinmos sticks. The VNF4 has a max vdimm of 2.9 so I'm looking for something that'll give me decent speed without the massive voltage needed by the likes of VX and redline. The twinmos will do 225...
