    Logitech Z-5500

    I got my Z-5500s just the other day...I'm having a lot problems. It's plugged in through an optical output on a HT Omega Striker 7.1 running on Vista 64 bit. First of all...in the windows control panel speaker test...the left speaker doesn't have any output...the center output is really...

    4gb in vista, anyone besides me?

    I built my Vista 64 system with 4GB in it already...so I don't know how much "improvement" there is over 2GB...but it's very fast and multitasks very well. It sure beats the 512MB in my XP system

    What else can I do to drop these temps?

    Something that worked for me that doesn't work for most is puting the 120mm fan on the opposite side of the heatsink. I have my fan pointing the same way as the exhaust fan right behind the exhaust fan. It looks absurd but it works...give it a try.

    [email protected]: 8x450 or 9x400?

    If you can run a stable 450x8 without blowing up your house I'll be very impressed.

    What else can I do to drop these temps?

    First of all, try reseating the heatsink...that may be your problem. If not it must be your ventilation. Do you have a fan on the heatsink? If not, put a 120mm fan on the heatsink blowing air through. Also, try some cable management...make sure there is a steady airflow through the...

    Very Simple Antec 900 Side Window Fan Mod

    For those of you who are using a Thermalright Ultra-120 or a similar heatsink for your processor in an Antec 900...you probably know that it's impossible to put the optional 120mm fan on the inside of the window with the heatsink there. Well...instead of puting the fan on the inside...why...

    Difficulty OCing - Think it might be the memory limitation?

    I'm working with the exact same processor and RAM...and a very similar Mobo with the same BIOS. Make sure your memory multiplier 2.0. I couldn't get it to post on normal voltages because the default memory multiplier is 3.0. Bring it down to 2.0 while you overclock. If you still have...

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    I'm using Vista 64...CoreTemp won't run for some reason...I found a way to fix it but after finding my problem with SpeedFan I won't really need it until I start hitting the wall.

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    I'm just taking it slow...I want to see how far I can get on stock voltage and then take it from there.

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    I just figured it out...I only had +15 for Core 4 :p new screenshot And yes I am OC'ing...I'm finding my FSB right now...I'm at 300 And the second VCore is definitely RAM

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    I don't know...I'll go in and screw around in the BIOS. I don't like the BIOS on this board...it's hard to find some stuff. I'll dig around and get back to you.

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    It's not the stock heatsink...it's a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme Do I need to remount it?

    Is it normal to have one core signifcantly hotter/colder than the others?

    As you can see, Core 2 is really low and Core 3 is really warm. Is this normal?

    Good point. But as of right now, which would you most recommend: a Deskstar, Caviar, or Barracuda 7200.100 in my price range?

    Non-Raptor Performance HDD

    How much could possibly change between now and August on the HDD front? It's not like 10,000RPM HDDs are going to be even close to my price range by then.

    Non-Raptor Performance HDD

    I'm building a new system in August...and I'm in the market for hard drives. I've been researching since February or so on the newest parts and still haven't been able to find a conclusive answer to this question: What is the best performance drive cheaper than a Raptor? I don't have the...
