    G. Skill Ram won't run at 1066 with 5-5-5-15

    got it fixed.. Had to reupdate my bios again to the newest beta vision which just came out 1-2 days ago. It's supposed to "improve memory performance". The new bios lowered the timing from 5-7-7-20 to 5-5-5-15 now! I also had to tune down the setting in Performance Enhance (from extreme to...

    I just tried it, manually set the timing to 5-5-5-15 and 1066 mhz and DRAM voltage at 2.1. The comp fails to boot. Then Bios automatically reset the speed to 800mhz (5-5-5-15)

    4870 vs 4850 for 1280x720 gaming

    get a hd4850. Prices for videocards drop like it's hot! In the future you would get something way better for half the price. Or you can get a hd4870 for $230 after $30 MIR, which is around $70 bucks more than 4850...

    E8500 E0 stepping. Help please!

    E8500 e0 stepping. Are there any significant benefit of having e0 stepping than c0? My e8500 just got delivered to me today, and unfortunately, it is not e0 (got it from zipzoomfly). I plan on overclock somewhat, nothing extreme. My electricity in the apartment is free. So my question is...
