    Review: Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 on 8800GT (dialup beware!)

    Does anybody have this inside of a CM690 case? It seems like it would have some clearance issues with the lower side case fan, which is where I get the best temps. Anybody have any ideas on where to place that fan and still get good cooling for my whole computer?

    Computer occasionally not posting

    I have my E6300 overclocked to 3.22 ghz and its been stable for about 3 months (passed 12 hours of prime95, as well as Memtest86+). However, on two occasions in the past week, my computer has failed to post, and I had to reset my cmos. After a reset, I get a message that says something about...

    My pictures of the Cooler Master 690 (the new $50 uber-case!)

    Just got this case and I'm loving it. I think if I replace the stock cooler on my 8800gt, my comp will be really quiet. If I replace it with the Accelero S1, will it cool adequately without a fan since the side panel will be blowing right onto it?

    Crysis stutters...OC problem?

    This rig is about 1.5 years old, got it around august 06, whenever core 2 duos came out. I'm using the 169.25 drivers for my 8800gt. I haven't tried running without the OC yet, so I'll try that out tomorrow.

    Crysis stutters...OC problem?

    I just OC my E6300 to 3.22GHz, and it is prime95 stable for 6.5 hours. Its about 55C at load, measured by TAT, 57C on SpeedFan. When I run crysis, the game often lags. It will still show the guys running, but they'll be running in place, and the music and sound will just keep looping for a...

    Anybody have experience with the Zerotherm Nirvana?

    http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/zerotherm_nirvana_review/5.htm That review has the zerotherm performing similarly to the Tuniq Tower, and the HardOCP review had the zerotherm within about 2C of the tuniq. For about $20 less, I think a 2C tradeoff is fairly reasonable. I think I'm...

    Anybody have experience with the Zerotherm Nirvana?

    I've finally gotten around to overclocking my E6300, and I've reached about 2.24GHz on stock cooling and voltage. However, my temps are getting quite hot...reaching 70C at certain points (measured with TAT and speedfan). I feel like I can push it further, but need a different hsf. I'm looking...

    LG L246W

    I've been thinking about getting this monitor for a little while now, but some of the issues stated recently kinda made me rethink. If someone can clear up some of these for me, I may have a better idea of what I should do. The fact that it won't turn back on from standby and the fact that the...

    24" and consoles

    Anybody tried to plug in a PS2 over component on the LG L245WP? Also, I've been hearing that the LG has problems with outputting 1080p over VGA. Does this affect HDMI as well, since I am planning on getting a PS3 later in the year.

    Any info on the LG L226WA?

    New guy here, just joined up :) Anyway, I've been interested in the L226WA monitor, but I just can't seem to find any information on it. I sent an email to LG USA to see when they would sell it in the US, but haven't gotten a reply yet. Anybody have any information on this monitor...
