Hi all,
I have a dream.
15-16" screen with a good resolution
460m GTX gpu
i5-520m proc (because I dont see a reason to spend the extra money on a i7, convince me otherwise)
These specs are easily obtainable at a number of compy customizers that I found on the internet including...
Hello guys
Here is my predicament,
My mobo (Soyo P4X400 lite: TERRIBLE btw) recently suffered a fatality. I am looking to buy a new mobo on newegg and was wondering if a standard Pentium 4 2.4 chip (not a prescott, no hyperthreading) would work in a motherboard designed for a Prescott. I am...
So i used to have this issue where sometimes a file would be corrupted and no matter how many times i downloaded it, it would be corrupted. Now, i found out that by connecting directly to my DSL modem rather than with my router (D-link DI-604), this problem never occurred. So i used to switch...
Im running Verizon DSL in the Seattle area and i have a pretty serious problem. I can download just fine, ~60-85Kb/sec.. but if I try and upload even at 2Kb/sec I have problems loading webpages, pictures, or pretty much anything. My whole entire connection just gets all hosed up. We had a guy...
ok so here it is in a nutshell.
I RMA'd my mobo a couple weeks ago, got it back two days ago. Installed it with no problems, except of course that lame undervolting shit. Last night i updated the bios (5/14) to hopefully fix the issue. Upon reboot, my network controller in the device manager...
I am tired of my old laptop and its time for a gaming rig! This bad boy is pretty much the skinniest laptop ever at about 1in deep.
Specs:
Pentium 3 700mhz
320 MB RAM
12GB Hard Drive
Windows XP
Office XP
Docking Station
DVD Drive
IR port
TV out
Multiple USB ports
13" screen...
I noticed this on newegg today for only $62 (+$7 shipping), and it seems like a good PSU, high +12v amps, shielded and sleeved connectors, etc blah blah...but i only found one pretty pitiful review on it from ClubOC. I am curious, do any of you guys know about better reviews out there, or about...
So i got myself a Tt 420W PSU a few weeks ago and recently i have noticed that MBM5 and SiSoft Sandra 2004 are BOTH reading my 3.3v rail at 1.60v and my 12v rail at ~TEN volts!!! So i plug in my old Antec 400w from this old server computer i had, and now i've booted up and get the SAME EXACT...
Now, before i get into things, i am posting this here because my friends are all saying "its hot because you are overclocking blah blah" and such things. But now that i think about it, this might fare better in the motherboard section. But its too late now since im just editing the topic at...
Just wondering if its normal for my A64 [email protected] to jump up that much when under load...i mean i notice alot of people with similar idle temps getting load temps of mid to high 40s, but i get a 15C increase from idle to load w/ an slk-948u. I'm wondering if maybe my TIM application wasn't...
My Thermaltake 420w PSU (Active PFC), i just found out, has its 12v line running at ~10.50v according to Motherboard Monitor 5...I'm pretty sure this is totally unacceptable and i should RMA the thing, but i just want to check with you guys...
Also, my 5v line is within .1 of 5 volts, and my...
So, lets say for example that i installed directx and my gfx card drivers, and maybe a few other things, before i updated my chipset drivers...is there any way for me to go about fixing this, since apparently the chipset drivers are supposed to come first?
So i went and bought this evga 6800gt, installed it and got the 61.72 whql drivers, installed the coolbits thing, etc. So when i went to overclock it, i thought i'd find out how high the "autodetect" optimal frequencies thing would give me...
...so i try it the first time and it says 389mhz...
so i got an A64 3000+ last week and when i tossed it into my rig and ran cpu-z, it read as a SH7-CG revision, but the code name was "ClawHammer", not Newcastle. Aren't all CGs Newcastle cores? Oh yeah and the cache is 512kb, too.
/me = confused
I'm sorry, but i need PICS!!!, i cant tell how much a "thin, even layer" is with just words...
am i supposed to still see the heat spreader under the goo (i.e. should it be thick enough that i can't exactly see through it)?
is it supposed to be ridiculously thin and almost not there...
My video card doesnt have a TV out but I purchased a cord that goes from the blue output on the back and splits it into a S-video and Yellow output. When i plug this directly into my TV all i get is static. Does anyone know how to solve this problem or have any idea what causes it? The only...
yeah i know the forum is full of these, but i recently came upon this:
Kingmax PC4000 512MB DDR...(3-4-4-8)
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=20-156-012&DEPA=0
first of all, its only $105 per stick, and second of all it is rated at 250mhz. My question is, for an...
Can anyone tell me their experiences with overclocking Mushkin RAM, specifically the PC3200 Level One models? (2-3-2 rating)...i've found a couple reviews, but they arent the same model or the test is a picture that didn't load or its inconclusive, etc. There really isn't much that gives me a...
I have been looking for threads or reviews with the PMI turbo memory in an AMD system, but i have yet to find anything, so i was wondering if any of you guys have some of this stuff running in your system, particularly an athlon64 system...i wanna know if i should get this stuff or the more...
I can't decide b/w these two monitors:
Viewsonmic P95F+B
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=24-116-232&DEPA=0
NEC FE991SB-BK
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=24-002-037&depa=0
Before stating your opinion, i have a question. If the...
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=13-123-219&depa=0
its up on newegg for a mere $96. However, what the hell does the "J" mean? isn't it supposed to be the "8KDA3+"?
Anyway yeah, just a heads up...and a question.
i dont have quite enough for those sapphire radeon 9800 pros that are on newegg for ~$220 bux, so i thought i would ask for one on here, since i am desperately in need of a new one (current = radeon 7200 *puke*).
I guess i should post a disclaimer saying i am not positive i will be able to...
