    Is my 350W Dell PSU powerful enough for a 9600GT?

    YES! I just did this weekend on my brother's Dell D8400 with 350 PSU. We put in a PNY 9600GT WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. He previously had a 6800GT that did not have a separate power supply to the card (weird)

    Recommend a UPS

    I've had a APC XS1000 for a few years now. At one point it broke down, I called APC and they sent me a NEW ONE for free, and I got to keep the broken one. AWESOME customer service

    Anandtech just posted a nice review of the Noctua CPU heatsink/fan, looks good. I agree spending 60 bucks for something that you have to lap AND buy a fan for is absurd. http://www.anandtech.com/casecoolingpsus/showdoc.aspx?i=3268...

    Best air cooling solution for Q6600

    Does the TRUE need to be lapped? How does it cool so well eventhough there is NO fan?

    Confused on calculating overclocking

    Confused on calculating overclocking

    Its been a while since I've overcloked my P4 chip, and after reading Graysky's excellent guide I'm still confused. My P4 chip is 3.0Ghz with and multiplier of 15 and FSB of 200 thus 15X200=3.0 GHZ so when I increased my fsb to 217, I was overclocking at 217X15=3.25 Ghz. Therefore I needed...
