Hi, I'm fairly new to overclocking and was wondering if this OC and the way I did it is going to be safe/stable. (My build specs are in sig) I went to the BIOS and changed to 400x8 so it's running at 3.2GHz, 29C Idle. I put the voltages on Auto instead of Manual. Then I overclocked my...

enginurd, you there? Help! :) After searching on google and posting in another forum, I've concluded that my Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L Motherboard has the cold boot syndrome. Hardware: Intel Dual Core e6750 with ninja heatsink Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L 2gb GSkill ram Corsair HX520w PSU BFG 8800GF 120gb...

I just installed Vista on another partition. My question is would that slow down the boot up speed on my XP because it seems like it loads alot slower. Thanks

Where should I put these 120mm fans. I have this case. Right now I have one in the front, one on my Ninja heatsink and the other on the side. Should I move the side one to the front? What would be best for maximum airflow to get lower temps. Or should I get a fourth and put it in the front, or...

I'm not sure if this is the problem, but I've narrowed it down to it. When I press the power button on my computer, no boot screen or video appears, I can hear my 8800GT fan spin at 100%, but it goes longer than usual, 10 seconds normally, then the computer shuts off immediately. 5 Seconds later...

Hi there. I have Direct TV and want to be able to watch TV on my computer. The problem is, my satellite receiver on my first floor on the opposite side of the house. Is there anything I can do about this, perhaps some sort of wireless transmitter? What would I need to do? Thanks! mackry

I wasn't sure which forum fits this question; either this or video cards. Anyways, I have Direct TV and want to be able to watch TV on my computer. The problem is, my satellite receiver on my first floor on the opposite side of the house. Is there anything I can do about this. Is there some sort...

I did it. Also, they're having their Extended Gift Return policy, so you have the chance to return it up to Jan. 31. Maybe a new card will come out eh? http://www.fatwallet.com/t/18/777986

Honestly, how much difference can you tell from 1280x1024 to higher resolutions, in terms of detail? I have a 19" I got three years ago, and now everyone has a widescreen 22". In games such as Crysis, truthfully, how much detail is discernible to the naked eye to you? Enough to spend $300 on a...

Just installed my BFG OC 8800GT; upgrade from my 6800GT. Wow, what an improvement. I can play Crysis on all High settings with 1280x1024 resolution with an average 30 FPS. Not bad for my rig, look in sig! AMD 64 3500+ // Asus A8n-SLi Deluxe // 1gb G.Skill // 74gb WD Raptor // BFG OC 8800GT //...

Okay, for the paranoia in me, I would like to get one final critique before I press Complete order. I plan on using this system for gaming (crysis, cod4) and some apps like Photoshop. I use 1280*1024 resolutions and plan to OC at least to 3.2GHz btw. I'm trying to go the cheapest route possible...

My final build before I order. Critique please if you'd like and feel free to give me suggestions. I also need a PSU to pick. I have my mind set on the Corsair 520HX. Moreover, I plan on overclocking the proc to around 3.4ghz. Would this setup work well for that? Budget around $900 I plan on...

Hey all, I've currently have a 64 3500+, ASUS A8n-sli deluxe, 1gig gskill ram, 6800gt, 10k rpm raptor. I did not know you could get a dual core 939. I was going to upgrade all out with a new e6750 rig and all for over $1000. I know i do plan on getting the 8800gt. So I was wondering would it be...

I'm not sure if this has been posted before and it's pretty useless and not sure what it means, but I found it interesting. In C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Game\Config\gpu folder is nvidia.txt the 4 means 8800gt is going to kick ass on Crysis :)

Hey, before I order this, i would like to get a final say on this build. Any space to go cheaper? I'm looking to play crysis, cod4 and mainly the new upcoming games. Thanks in advance. http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=6445012

Hi, is there anyway to make this ZALMAN CNPS7700-CU 120mm 2 Ball Cooling Fan fit on this Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Conroe 2.66GHz 4M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor ?

Hey all. After almost 3 years with my current build (amd 64 3500+ 6800gt and 1gb ram) I'm going to upgrade. I still love my PC and it still plays most games, but these newer ones (CoD:4, UT3, Crysis, etc..) are killin' it! I've tried to read up on parts and put together this build: Processor...
