My 19" Viewsonic A90's vertical refresh rate peaks out@ 100 Hz for a resolution of 1024 x 728. For stereo 3-D video viewing purposes, I need it to display at this resolution at a bare minimum vertical refresh rate of approximately 120 Hz (though preferabley when I get another monitor, at about 170...

Ok, my gut feeling was that installing a copper shim was a mod that could provide measurable benefits. My reasoning was as follows: Presently my Maze3 waterblock is only slightly warm at the edges of the block, indicating a large thermal gradient between the center water channel and the...

I'm upgrading a case (and the system inside it)? Actually two such systems. I want to have positive air pressure in the case sufficient to keep out dust. If you know this design, it has vents on the sides of the case near the top, plus a row of vents in the back above the adapter cards: Both...

I've got an old ABit ZM6 (PPGA360) MoBo and picked up an old Celeron 566 coppermine (cB0) which the board DOES support w/ last couple BIOSs (it's a PPGA board and this is an early FCPGA chip). Previously I had a 366(66) OC'd to 550(100) for years no prob. I dropped in the 566 and w/ 66FSB sure...

I know that in both Windows XP & VISTA (any version) 32bit versions We can't install & use more than about 3 Gigs of RAM . The O/S uses some addresses above 3 Gig for addressing the hardware.. particularly the Graphic card .. My question is how can I tell how much is available to use in a...

I helped a friend build a computer today. He bought a tube of Arctic Silver III and had a lot left over .. gave it to me. A month ago or so I bought and installed a Zalmans 7000 cu. I didn't have any heat issues, just wanted to quiet things down. I love it .. it's on my P4 2.4 gig. and runs nice...

For further OC, I need some special prg. to be able to read my AGP/PCI Bus speeds. AIDA,SANDRA won´t do it (anymore). It´s an Asus motherboard. G.

AMD Stock is going down on the market, while Intel Stock is going up, slow for sure. But if AMD was so good, why is it that Intel Stock is on a slow rise, while AMD Stock is going down. Even in my area, where people have little $$ They put out more money in Intel chips then AMD's Chips. Even if...

Hi, just a quick question, my NB is running at 52C constantly on my MSI neo2 with a 2.6C. Is this this temp fine? Or shall I sort it out so that it runs 5 degrees cooler? cheers evgenii

Well, after removing the IHS from my Tualatin Celly 1.3GHz CPU I looked around my parts area and found the only Socket 370 board I have that is capable of running Coppermines was the aforementioned GA-6WMMC7. It's a fairly Crap(tm) board, mATX, on-board graphics that use system RAM, no AGP slot and...

Hi, just trying to work out if my new 350w ANTEC PSU (SL350) is gonna be strong enough. Working on the basis it draws 7v on the 12v rail, including all my devices, +3.3v (28) = 6.9 +5v (35) = 20.15 +12v (16) = 14.45

Hi, Are there any harddrives that are known for being quiet? And any that are known for operating at a low(er) temperature, and any that are preferably both?. I have 2 seagate barracuda drives in my box and they are the noisiest components in there. After the box has been on a while, they make a...

I've bought new harddisc Maxtor Diamondmax plus, and my problems start when I try to insall it. I've connect it on the first IDE channel like master, and the old harddisc IBM like slave. On the second IDE channel is dvd and cd/rw devices. But the BIOS (AMIBIOS) didn't recognise any device!...

I'm looking for advice here - I have no experience with overclocking, but an pretty good in assembling PC from components. Have heard in another newsgroup that it is possible to overclock the P4 3.2 CPU to around 4Ghz. I'm mainly interested in flight simulation (FS9) so need the most powerful PC I...

I need to clean thermal compound from my heatsink/CPU and the manufacturer says acetone or high-purity (99%) isopropyl alcohol is the way to go. Anyone know where I can find either? I doubt my local pharmacy or hardware store carries either (though I could be wrong). Or am I taking their...

I've just started playing with a Celeron Mendicino 500MHz (7.5x) and have it on an 83MHz FSB at 2.4vcore. I'm installing 98SE on it so haven't tested it with Prime95 yet. I was just wondering, how fast are these CPUs known to go. I have an AMD XP2500+ Barton HSF on it, one of the copper-bottom...
