    Corsair Obsidian Series 550D Mid-Tower Case Review @ [H]

    I have this case and have a H80i now but want more. The H80i is my first water cooler so i have no experience building a water loop. I only want to cool my cpu. I was thinking either 2 x 120mm radiators each with push/pull or maybe 1 x120 and one 240 on the top. The 240 ontop would be just...

    Rebuilding broken plastic screw mount

    My Acer 4230 travelmate laptop's screen/cover had some slack in the hinges so a few weeks ago I tightened the hinges where they attach to the body. This helped but did not completely fix the wiggle. So I took the LCD panel completely off today and found that the top left screw mount is broke...

    memory for Vaio Desktop

    thanks for the reply. The last 4 PC's (2 dimensons, 1 sony, 1 hp) I have worked on had 2 empty slots so I disagree with : "this usually means that you only have two ram slots" they were also "expandable". Most laptops I work on use both slots though. But I think it really varies...

    memory for Vaio Desktop

    According to Everest it has 4 slots. Regardless, is it not better to get rid of the existing ram to ensure no conflicts. Also if I go with the GSkil as recommended by munkle then I get a matched pair with faster timings and utilize maximum allowable ram for this system. Thanks munkle, I...

    wireless printing

    that does not sound to confusing. So you do not have to put it on a network router then right? Did you have to enable file and printer sharing on your PC's ? thanks for the reply!

    Upgrade from DDR2 400 to 533?

    I ordered the 2x1GB 533 so now that I will have 2 slots open should I keep the 2x256 400 MHz in the other 2 slots? Is it better to have 2GB at 533 OR 2.5GB at 400 ? The 533 wont be running that fast since my FSB is only 400 right. should I be comparing timings? The current 2x256...

    Upgrade from DDR2 400 to 533?

    thank you for the answer I needed to hear. I did not think about the stress on the mem controller and since I am not overclocking then I have no need for the 512's. 2x1gb 533 is what it is gonna be. ty

    Upgrade from DDR2 400 to 533?

    They do not offer very much in the 400MHz range anyway. I thought the performance would be better from (4) 512 modules rather than (2) 1gb modules ? Also, if I did go that route (2x1GB rather than 4x512GB) should I just go with 533 or the 667 that you linked? Since the FSB is only...

    Upgrade from DDR2 400 to 533?

    I am working on a friends Dell Dimension 8400 and need to add some memory. Is there any reason not to go from the 400 to the 533 MHz? (If I was not going to use the existing 400MHz modules?) Right now it has 2 x 256MB DDR2 400 (PC2 3200) and I was thinking of getting rid of these and...
