If I've proven that my RAM runs perfectly at 250MHz, but I want to push my CPU further, is it unsafe to downclock it to 200MHz in one step when I'm switching to 5:4? What about pushing it back up to 250 from 200 if I'm unhappy with the results? I've heard the rule of thumb about incrementing...

After owning this computer for about a year and a half, I decided to overclock the processor. Before I go on, here are my system specs: Abit IC7 w/ Zalman silent northbridge heatsink Intel Pentium 4 2.4C w/ Zalman CNPS7000A-AlCu Kingston ValueRAM (C3) DDR400 - 2 x 512mb (dual channel mode)...

I have a pair of Sony SS-950's that are giving me trouble when I plug them into my amp. Now, I realize I can't exactly expect speakers this old to work perfectly, but I was wondering if anyone could help me identify the problem. After a certain amount of time, one of the channels becomes...

When I try playing music in Windows Media Player while running Counter-Strike, the game's sound won't show up. It seems unlikely that this would be the card's fault, since I was able to do this with my onboard Realtek chip.

I have a stick of CL3 PC3200 KVR, which I've been able to tweak from it's factory settings of 3-4-4-8 down to 2.5-3-3-5. If I got another stick that would in all likelihood be able to do the same, would I be able to easily push my FSB to 250mhz in 5:4 mode? I'm using an ABIT IC7 and a P2.4C...

I've finally isolated the last of the loud components in my PC, the HSF attached to my 9600 Pro. I removed the fan from the heatsink for about a minute when the system was in idle, and my PC was just about silent, with a mild whisper coming from my PSU and CPU fans. This also brought light...

Does anyone know if there exists a way to disable the 48khz resampling, or if there's even an audible difference when it's done? Just curious since I just bought the card, though it's not too late to return it.

Exactly how important is having good memory for a simple 250mhz FSB running at a 5:4 divider? Is Kingston Value RAM absolutely worthless?

Alright, I've been planning to make some changes to my system for a while, but with my Western Digital's recent death, I decided that now might be a good time to go ahead with the upgrade. Firstly, I want to replace the noisy stock HSF on my Radeon 9600 Pro with something heftier, like a...
