I will be upgrading to 4gig memory soon so that is going to mean the need for a 64bit OS, which will mean an upgrade to Vista. Through the school system I can get the Academic Upgrade version of Ultimate for $89, I already have the full version of XP. My question is: If I do a fresh...

In Crysis I keep getting the same graphic glitch, will happen in the sky and/or along walls. Can be anything from a small section to something like this screen shot that effects the ability to play the game. Playing game on medium setting across the board. It wouldn't suprise me for something...

When overclockign can you set your FSB to anything you want that your mobo will allow you too? I decided to OC my e6850 and decided that 3.5 sounded like a good starting point. I grabed the calculator and divided 3500 by 9 and set my FSM to 389. Any problems with this? This may be a basic...

I am going to buy the complete version of either this software or Sandra and I am leaning more towards Everest. My question is: How accurate are the temp monitors?

My wife has a Dell Demension 5100 with a P4 Prescott 3.0 processor. Am I correct in thinking that if I was going to change out the processor in this PC I would have to stick with another Prescott 800FSB processor? Or could I put an 800 FSB dual core processor in there?

Think I’m gonna stay with XP on my new build. I’m comfortable with it and it works. I have 2 questions about it though: I am buying a Q6600 processor when the prices drop and will get 4gig memory. Through using the search function I know XP will only acknowledge a total of 4gig memory and...

I read through the "answers" sticky but most of that seemed to be relating to data protection which I am not interested in, I am looking for a preformance increase and I "think" raid would help. Im not sure though . Im not having really having any problems, Im wanting to accomplish 2 things...
