Thank you guys for the suggestions. I will look into each of those receivers. Just out of curiousity, do you guys happen to know of any balancing software that works like the Vista surround balancing application? I'm looking to see if just balancing what I have doesn't do the trick first.

I'm currently working on replacing my Klipsch 2.1 Pro-Media speakers. I have come to a point where I would really like to have 5.1 sound and I recently got the HT Omega Striker 7.1 audio card which happens to have SPDIF out. What I was thinking of doing was getting some sort of receiver that...

eDimensional Audio FX Certainly not the best headphones in the world, but they get the job done and have very strong bass (the force feedback features helps a lot). They are a little rough in the high range but for the most part I have no complaints about them. They are very comfortable and my...

thanks a bunch for the reply. I will definitely run memtest86 first when I get back...I didn't know sticks could actually be incompatible with each other...I always assumed if they were the same speed rating and could run in about the same timings range then they would be fine (eg: they both...

Ok, so I just re-installed windows XP and installed all the updates and what have you, then I installed the FAH SMP client. Did the whole MPI thing and started up the client (no -forceasm flag) and it did all the normal stuff, downloading work units and I put in all the client info. Then it gave...

I was actually at a car show that had that car there and I got to sit in it, GT3 RS is a BEAUTIFUL car! But here is my laptop, Ubuntu Linux running Gnome, XGL and Compiz-fusion along with AWN for the "mac bar", Desktop Drapes which changes my desktop background every 15 minutes and Dark-ICE GDM...

Can anyone confirm that even though the BIOS supports a change in multiplier that the chip does as well? I'm updating my bios (just making sure it's the newest) and then I'm going to try jumping again to see if I can't get a successful boot at something above my current wall.

Thanks for the reply, I am going to try some suggestions I got from a friend of mine and see if I can't get it stable at something above 400mhz. I apparently mis-read the article about the FSB hole and it includes 400mhz as well as around 375-380mhz so I am going to try 401mhz or something or...

I see your point, but I have seen these chips go MUCH further then 400mhz at the FSB and the FSB (I thought) was more or less dependant on the motherboard and not the processor, the processor's default FSB is 200mhz, yes, however, that just means where they set it too to match up with the...

That doesn't make any sense though, I lowered the multiplier so that a 400mhz FSB would only put the chip at 2.8Ghz because the multiplier was set to 7x...why won't it boot at that? That's my real question because all logic says that it should.

Hey guys, I'm overclocking my Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 and so far have gotten it to 3.1Ghz stably. I was just wondering if anyone here has ever used the P5B-Deluxe or the 965 chipset and has any advice for me on how to go about it. Right now the setup is as follows: FSB: 345mhz Mult: 9x RAM...

I tried looking them up on newegg, but I was wondering what RAID setups they are capable of doing. I'm looking to making a 1TB RAID5 array, but I need a card that can do RAID5 (obviously), this would be a great deal if they did that, could you specify what RAID types they can use, all I have...

I loosened it up just to get the speed because I figured I could loosen all the way until I got what I wanted and then I can just tighten it back up once I have what I want. The RAM is at the lowest divider it can go to which is 1:1 unfortunately because it is a P5B which uses an older chipset...

Ok, so, the rig that is in my sig is currently at 3.2Ghz stable at 1.4Vcore...I want it to run faster but I have a catch. I am only running it on DDR2-667 right now because I haven't had the money to order the actual RAM that is in the sig (though it will be there soon). Until then, I would like...

That's a great idea, I'm going to have to give it a try on my P180. It runs so freaking hot it's not even funny. My opteron runs almost 10C cooler with the side panel off than with it on. I need to get a Scythe ninja first though...the Zalman on there now doesn't blow air the correct direction...
