    Gigabyte P35-DS3L Memory Compatibility

    The cheapest PC2 6300 memory should be fine with this board and overclocking your pentium dual core.

    How can I get 1440x900 res?

    Try installing Powerstrip, then go to display profiles and uncheck "Hide modes not supported", see if that gives any other options. Seems like it's a rather weird resolution you're looking for. I thought most 19" widescreen panels ran at 1400x900. It doesn't support that resolution? In that...

    3850 advice

    For crysis and splinter cell 3, yes, it looks like the extra memory makes a significant difference at higher resolutions. Not so much at all in most other games and lower res where the performance is alarmingly close considering the extra memory. If you're worried about performance at high res...

    HD 3850 (512Mb) vs. HD 3870

    From what I understand the differences between the cards are the stock speeds that they are clocked to and that seems to be about it. The HD 3850 suffered in benchmark comparisons initially due to the reference memory being set at 256Mb, but how do the 512Mb versions measure up to the 3870...

    [E2140] Need Mobo, RAM and Graphics Card specced please

    This board clocks well with 800Mhz FSB chips? I read a thread on another forum where the guy complained about the available memory ratios for low FSB chips. Whether this is compensated with being able to use strapping (stop me if I'm talking about stuff I'm not that familar with) to make the...

    [E2140] Need Mobo, RAM and Graphics Card specced please

    I've been reading masses of threads on this and other forums trying to find the best good value combo to go with a Pentium Dual Core E2140. Obviously since I'm basing the build on such a cheap processor cost is an important consideration to me. The motherboard must play nice with 800Mhz FSB...
