So would it be better to get 8gb DDR3 1333 or 4GB DDR3 2000? Just how significant is the memory difference between two ram of the same capacities? Any links to tests that have been done? I couldn't find any in a quick google... My friend is just planning on playing games with the pc if that...

trying to build a new comp for a friend. I built mine years ago and kind of need to touch up on this stuff. so does the DDR3 2000(O.C.) specification on a mobo mean i have to fiddle with the motherboard settings to enable DDR3 2000 ram to run at that speed? the O.C. part kind of throws me...

there is nothing in the windows sound profile that covers what i'm talking about. even when i select the 'no sounds' profile i can still hear it. perhaps the "problem" is not so closely associated with the operating system. but thank you for your help. for now though, i am still confused :confused:

i'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, however, does anyone know of a way to disable the small "clicks" that windows (i assume) makes when receiving input from the keyboard? although i can only hear them at very high volumes, i would still like to know how to get rid of them thank you

http://www.klearscreen.com/detail.aspx?ID=81 Hey all, When it comes to monitors I have some kind of general anxiety disorder because I feel compelled to clean every smudge or speck... Anyway, I need to buy a good cleaning solution and I've heard good things about klear screen, but it is...

E6600 $230 E6750 $185 Could someone explain this price point anomaly? I'm fairly sure the E6750 is superior to the E6600 from a specifications standpoint, so why is the E6750 priced significantly lower than the E6600? Is consumer demand for the E6600 solely responsible for this? I'm...

Hi all, I was just wondering how to change my windows user name? The one that displays under "users" when you control/alt/delete. It is currently "Owner", which is probably the default. I have tried changing it in user accounts but that doesn't seem to affect it. Does anyone know how...

Does turning on ATI Catalyst Control Center actually affect performance in game? Because if doesn't then it's just a hindrance to me... those three instances of CLI.exe are really eating my ram (not that they're system hogs or anything but I get pretty punctilious about running unnecessary...

Phantom key blocking basically means that the keyboard cannot handle 3 or more depressed keys at once. Here's from Wikipedia: "Keyboards are less than ideal when many keys are to be pressed at once, as the simple keyboard circuitry means that only a certain number of keys will register at one...

Thank you so much. The option was actually called EC1 or something like that but I disabled it and everything is fine now. Hard to think I have been running this thing underclocked for months now :rolleyes:

I was looking at my CPU-Z specifications and while my E6600 is supposed to be running at 2.4 ghz, under the "clocks" section the core speed reads Core Speed 1601.8 MHz Multiplier x6.0 FSB 267MHz Bus Speed 1067.9 MHz Is there something I'm just not getting here? Is my...

Thanks a lot, that Tmods BIOS CD really helped!

My newly built computer has been randomly rebooting every twice a week or so and after a few hours of memtest86 with no errors I believe it may be the BIOS. I lack a floppy disk drive so I must resort to using Winflash even though I have heard it is a bit unsafer. The instructions on the DFI...

Maybe I should clarify. I need some music to kick ass too :D

Yeah... and about Chinese gold farmers, let's be nice, people. They are working for hours on end to make in a month for what you make in an hour. Their money is usually sent back home to help support their family and siblings like most of China's young workforce, so, please don't scam them if...
