    Reusing Laptop LCD screen question

    I've looked at the FAQ about reusing LCD's and the process seems to require a controller for the LCD to intervace with VGA or DVI. My question is, aren't these things in the laptop? Doesn't the laptop come with some sort of controller and if not how does it work in the first place, some sort...

    Thermaltake Volcano 12 enough for an oc'ed 2500+?

    http://store.yahoo.com/svcompucycle/a1745.html Would that provide sufficient cooling for an Athlon XP Mobile 2500+ oc'ed to 3200+ speeds? I haven't got the chip yet so I can't provide oc voltages or stock temps, but I'm looking for a cheapoer cooling solution (sp97's expensive) and I'm...

    Firing Squad NV40 follow up article : Overclocking

    It might shed some light on the "Have we seen the real NV40 yet?" question/debate. http://firingsquad.com/hardware/geforce_6800_ultra_2/ Sorry if it's a repost. I checked and didn't see anything from FS.

    6800 running the Unrealengine3

    I found this posted over at Shaknews. It's better than the tech demo nVidia released if you ask me. http://sanbjoe.home.online.no/nv40/unreal3_0002.wmv I apologize if it's a repost. I didn't see anything like it up already.

    Cheap heat sink for oc'ed mobile 2500+

    I'm putting together an oc'ed Athlon XP Mobile 2500+ system and I was wondering if I really need to drop $50 on an SP94 or SLK-947 with fan or if there was a cheaper alternative. I haven't as yet put the system together so I don't know what temps I'm looking at stock, but I plan to shoot for a...

    Recognizing a 200GB HDD

    I've got a 200GB Maxtor hard drive and for it to be recognized I have to install Maxtor's Dynamic Disk Overdrive which boots just after the bios but before Windows XP. The problem is that I was messing around with my fsb and had to reset my bios by removing the battery and Dynamic Disk...

    Recommended fan/heatsink combo for an oc'ed 2500+ Mobile?

    I'm going to be overclocking a 2500+ mobile to hopefully 2.3 if not 2.4 or 2.5ghz and I realized that the stock cpu cooler isn't going to cut it so what do you guys with overclocked mobile athlon XP systems use to cool your procs? Ideally I'd like a $20-$30 solution, but I could manage $40 if...

    Simply put, are lower CAS latency number's better?

    I know there's a memory faq and I've looked briefly at the bit about latency numbers, but all I want to know right now is whether or not lower numbers are better, that is, is 2-2-2-6 better than 3-4-4-8? Thank you for indulging an impatient noob.

    When will the R420 and the NV40 be released roughly?

    I've seen the 14th mentioned several times in threads about these cards. Am I right to assume that they're referring to the 14th of April? Is that the launch? I've read that, at least with ATI, the cards are on shelves a month after they're launched, so can we expect the R420's in stores by...

    DFI Infinity NFII Ultra or ABIT NF7-S to oc an AXP-M?

    I'm looking to put together an oc'ed Athlon XP mobile system. From what I gather, the DFI has the highest ram voltage of an NF2 board and is then potentially the greatest over clocker, while the NF7-S is the most stable, reliable NF2 mobo around and a forum favorite. Which do you recommend...

    400W enough for an oc'ed Mobile Barton?

    I'm putting together an oc'ed Athlon XP Mobile 2400/2500 system with a single DVD drive, floppy, SBAudigy, 9800pro, and two 7200rpm HDDs. How much power do I need to run all that? I'm currently looking at an Antec 400W PSU. Is that enough?

    Is the ANTEC Performance Series II any good?

    I'm looking for a case to put an oc'ed Athlon Mobile 2400. This case appeals to me because it's roomy and comes with a 400W Antec powersupply which I was going to buy separately. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-129-120&depa=0 Do I need 400W to oc the Athlon...

    Best RAM for an oc'd Athlon XP M w/200mhz fsb

    I understand that PC3200 which operates naturally at 400mhz would be most appropriate, but is there a certain brand or maybe a range of supported voltages or any other criteria that I should look for? Would higher volatages only be necessary if I wanted to OC the memory and take the fsb beyond...

    Would Athlon XP 2400+ and Gigabyte 7DXR+ combination be OC'able?

    I'm looking for an upgrade solution to get me through another year when 939 boards will be less expensive and more stable. I'm currently running an Athlon XP 1900+ on a GA-7DXR+. I've heard wondeful things about mobile Athlon XPs being wildly over clockable due to their unlocked...

    Upgrade to Athlon64 and Socket 754 now or wait for Socket 739?

    I want to upgrade for HL2 and general DX9 compatability. My current system is an Athlon XP 1900+ and my mobo's limiting me to a 266mhz fsb so upgrading to a Barton core proc would be a waste without a new mobo and if I'm going to upgrade that I might as well go all out. So I was wondering, as...
