Hi, I'm starting this thread because my last thread lead onto this but had the completely wrong title so I'm not sure if the right people might look at it!! Basically here's the situation: E6700 was idling at stock speeds and stock fan @ 55-57 degrees E6700 idles now with Scythe...

Hi peeps, After running nTune to tweak my performance on a E6700 w/ eVGA 680i, I want to do the same with my new Scythe infinity - but first I want to measure temps before and after (@ stock speeds) - so what is the default voltage for the E6700?! I can't seem to find it anywhere... Cheers!

Hi people, I have just plugged in my Nesteq Nova 600W and it seems to be pummelling out a lot of noise. The specs say the fans only kick in at 65 degrees, but it certainly isn't 0dB and it's only 26 degrees. Anyone else used one of these? I think it may be the noisiest bloody component...

Anyone? Zalman CNPS9700? I've heard varying reports on this. I don't mind getting one I may have to hack a little into place, filing etc.! Scythe Infinity with an uber quiet fan?

Anyone? Surely the Dominator 9136 should be the most expensive?! 8888 has lower latencies and a fan - but it's £140 more!! Anyone?

I'm trying to figure out which RAM to buy, and have it down to Corsair Dominator 8500 or the A-Data Extreme 8500. A-Data are a relatively new company, anyone got any info on them, their tech support and quality of products? Cheers, Josh

The Dominator's are out of stock, everywhere! Everything else for my PC has either arrived or has been shipped, so I'm now just waiting on the RAM. I have the Dominator on order, but can cancel if anyone can tell me of any RAM that is just as good and around the same price? eVGA 680i Intel...

OK, unless anyone can correct me, I believe there is not a PVR in existance with the following features: 1) EPG 2) Twin digital tuners 3) DVD recording So! I'm planning on the next best thing, in my opinion; A DVD recorder PVR, like the Toshiba RD-85DT, another digibox and a switcher...

I was wondering, does anyone know which games come with each 8800GTX package? One's that spring to mind: XFX eVGA Asus (actually I know that somewhere I'll put it on later) Palit Inno3D aaaand so on! Thanks for your replies people! Here are the findins so far, I've tried to...

I've been out of the gaming loop for a few years, but I'm about to seriously overhaul my rig and I'm looking for a few games to test the new pride&joy! Just for fun, here's the old and new: Old, trusty setup: 17" Eizo FlexScan L565 AMD Athlon XP 3200 (w/ Zalman CNPS7000) 1GB DDR 3200...

I'm about to seriously overhaul my system, and out of interest I'd like to benchmark everything identically on my old versus my new so I feel less bad about how much I spent :p I used to use SiSoft Sandra, but now you get less for free it seems..? Although I haven't looked at it in a while...

Has anyone seen the Lian-Li PC A10 for sale anywhere other than Kustom PCs and XCase? XCase don't have the silver and don't have any stock, and Kustom PCs again don't have any stock, but have the silver but reckon it'll be nigh on Christmas before I can get one delivered :( I don't want to...

Hi Following on from my other thread at the moment, it looks like I might be sending back my eVGA mobo. I've spent £189 on it, but there are three things bothering me: 1) I can't figure out (hence the other thread) whether this thing supports 1066Mhz RAM, as I've also ordered 1066Mhz...

OK I'm a little confused, just received my eVGA 680i Motherboard today and it says 800Mhz on the front - but I've also ordered some Corsair Dominator TwinX 1066Mhz RAM. Was that pointless?! Does this mean the RAM will run at 800Mhz, not 1066Mhz? I'm confused!!! Help! Should I have just got the...

I've been shopping around for the Dell 3007WFP, and am a little confused. Let me sum up: - I thought the Dell 3007WFP only had a DVI connector, no S-Video or VGA and no card reader - There is a new Dell, the 3007WFP-HC, which covers 92% of the colour gamut and has an 8ms response time, but I...

Alright, just building my new PC. My old case is a big, ugly, beige, plastic job. Now I'm going for a Lian-Li PC-A10. The only question is: Black or Silver?! It's £150 for one of these bad boy's, and it's kind of going to have to be a "feature" in the room, so I want it to look the best! Anyone...

OK well anyone out there got one?! Anyone bought an XPS Dell machine and got the new Dell 30 incher shipped with it? Anyone got any UK/US release dates (stand alone that is, you can already get it with the XPS machines)? I read one place said 21st November, and another said January, so a little...

One is much bigger, the other has better picture and £270 cheaper...

Hi peeps, Basically, I'm going to buy a new TFT. The main purpose of this is to be a desktop/gaming TFT, but watching movies would be nice. For your average desktop setup, what's the best screen size, 24" or 30"? I don't care about gaming FPS considerations, I'm getting an 8800GTX and will...

here (sorry for the wasted thread, I didn't know you could do polls)

Komplett has it here £759 at time of posting Ooooh!

OK, what's the best UK price (including VAT) you can find for a 8800GTX 768Mb? Mention whether it's in stock, also! And where in the UK can you get your mits on a watercooled 8800GTX? I'll start: Watercooled I can only find on Overclockers.co.uk :( £605 :mad: Best price IN...

Hi, I'm planning on building the following machine: Intel E6700 eVGA 680i 8800GTX 768MB 2GB Corsair PC8500 TwinX RAM Lian Li PC-A10B Nova 600W External fanless PSU The three options for watercooling I've narrowed down to are (I'm new to watercooling so I'm opting for the "kit"...

Someone please tell me what the difference is between them all! They are all reference boards, so surely they're pretty much identical! But they all have varying prices for the 8800 cards... and for some reason my gut instinct tells me that there is some kind of order of quality roughly...

Sorry peeps, I'm new in here and keep forgetting there's the nVidia sub-forum... Moved it here instead

Hello everyone, I am building a new Core 2 Duo system, and wanted to go for the water cooling solution for the silence. I was about to buy a Zalman Reserator 2 when I spotted it said it supported socket 775 Pentium 4, but no mention of Core 2 Duo (I know it's the same socket, but it says...

OK. I reckon I'm alright usually with knowing what and what not to buy when it comes to electrical fun stuff, namely because whenever I do I spend hours relentlessly scouring the net reading reviews and articles trapsing around learning about whatever it is I need to learn about. Be it a new...

Howdy! OK, a simple question to all who own a 8800GTX: How noisy is the fan?! I hear it's very quiet, but I'm very very serious about my silence as the computer is going to be used for recording delicate vocal audio in a small room. Previously I've had passively cooled GPU's, but I'm...

Moved to water cooling sub-thread - hadn't spotted that!
