Athlon 64's vs. Athlon XP vs. Pentium 4 by
MarkW
I currently have a Athlon XP 1.8 Ghz system. I'm very happy with it
except the motherboard is not fried. I wasn't planning to upgrade to
anything better for at least a year or two but maybe now is the time.
My first reaction is to go 64 bit to the Athlon 64 but yet I know I
won't use a 64 bit OS...

Aaron
Are there any weird thermal issues that come with a completely acrylic
case (all material is transparent)? One kid at school said cases are
aluminum for heat dissipation, but I think he was a little loony.
I suppose if I sat it in direct sunlight it would be like a
greenhouse. Things might not...

Serial ATA hard drive confusion by
mrbclass
1. The Serial ATA hard drives I've seen on Newegg have the same basic
stats (Average Seek Time: 8.5 ms, Buffer: 8MB, Rotational Speed: 7200
RPM) as most other drives, yet people say they are faster... why?
2. Does one need a special motherboard to use them? Exactly how does
that work?
