    FX-60 at Newegg yesterday = $459, today = $833

    Yeah, it's back down again. Newegg pricing appears to have all of the stability of a third-world stock market.

    FX-60 at Newegg yesterday = $459, today = $833

    What the hell changed between yesterday and today? Did they discover that the FX-60 counteracts the effects of aging or something? It's $458 at ZZF.

    Replacement AGP card for a Win 98 gaming rig?

    I haven't really set a $$$ limit. I used to have a 6800 Ultra that I eBayed. I've always regretted doing that.

    Replacement AGP card for a Win 98 gaming rig?

    I have a 2.4GHz P4 rig that runs Windows 98 so I can play older games. The ti4800 that's in it is on its last legs. Probably the most graphically intense games I'll be playing on this maching are Half-Life and Quake. Would just about any AGP card from Newegg do the job, or should I pick up a...

    Proudest gaming achievements

    I cut my RPG teeth on the BT series on my C64 back in the day. I know exactly what you're talking about. A good friend of mine and I worked through those games together. Good times.

    Single to Dual Core - Format?

    I'm a big fan of formatting/reinstalling after any major hardware change. XP is pretty good at dealing with new hardware configurations, but it's still Microsoft we're talking about here.

    Z-5500 Control Pod Question

    I've noticed that with the power button the Z-5500 control pod, I usually have to hold the button in for a few seconds to turn the power on or off. On my Z-680 control pod, pressing the power button turns the pod on/off almost instantly. Is my 5500 pod screwed-up or is this normal behavior?

    CNET Conducts AMD vs Intel Dual Core CPUs

    Damn...that, my friends, is a good old-fashioned beat-down!

    4400+ vs 4800+

    Yes, but it didn't help.

    4400+ vs 4800+

    My 4400+ gets barely to 2.4GHz, and that's it. Extra voltage doesn't help. Although odds are that a 4400+ will hit 4800+ speeds, there is always the chance that one could loose the "overclocking lottery" and get a dud.
