P4 3ghz, 2gb DDR 400, 500w Sparkle PSU, MSI budget AGP 8X board, and currently a 256mb Radeon 9600 pro. I need a new 8X AGP card but pickings seem slim. For $200 CAD what am i looking at?

I got a new router (Trendnet S4W1CA) which is working great and stealthing every port but its accepting ping requests. I have a "Block WAN Ping" setting which is off by default, i'm pretty sure enabling will fix this, but is there a downside to enabling this? ie. gaming, torrents, chat etc...

I know its being reported by the INQ but can anyone confirm this? Sounds like shit is really hitting the fan at MS - much of the development team is up in arms over delays and orders from above. IMO delays like this don't necessarily mean a superior product but instead a scramble to fix...

A lot of people are speculating this, I believe it too. I read that Nintendo now claims it will be available in the "fall of 2006" (other dates are floating around, so who knows what's up, Q3 being the most popular), there is no way Nintendo would launch a game like this for the GC around the...

GDrive wow, infinite storage :) . I love how they mention backing up our emails and web history on a remote drive. I'm not sure I'd even trust the mighty Google to serve my sensitive data. ;)

I have a 2-pin Power LED connector (going to JFP1) and a 3-pin Power LED (going to JFP2) connector. On my old mobo the 3-pin Power LED connection was unplugged, the manual for my new mobo says it goes to JFP2 along with the 4-pin Speaker connector. My question is what does the 2nd Power LED...

Got a new mobo and a Radeon 9600pro for a budget system. Is enabling fast writes still an issue with ATI? I remember back in the day with the 7500/8500's it was. I've never used this feature because of those past issues does anyone know if ATI fixed this problem. Mobo supports fast writes and...

good job ATI. There will also be agp X1300 cards - good news for people still stuck with these "ancient" AGP8X boards. ;)

I'm reformatting and have an unopened Windows 3.11 box I got from work a few years back. Out of crazy boredomness i'm thinking about installing these fresh 31/2 floppies in my P4 box. What kind of errors should i look forward to? Will it even boot? P4 3Ghz 1gb DDR 400 128 Radeon 9800pro...

Just curious to know how often most people clean their computers. I dust mine every couple days and use a can of compressed air every 4 months or so. Is this compulsive or normal? kthx

I noticed in all the preview/reviews that no one has shown 3DMark 03/05 results. Not that they reflect real world performance anyway but I found it somewhat odd. Anyone know why?

:cool: Haven't seen this for a long while..:p

Once a week I get the stop error message "driver irql not equal or less than *** STOP 0x000000D1, 0X00002000, OX000000FF" - that's it no mention of why, how or where. It doesn't point to any device and the multiple google searches have gone nowhere. Can anyone recommend a good site to try and...

My board temps are always between 55-60.c The CPU and chassis temps never go higher than 45.c however. I've checked with CPU Cool, Everest, and Sandra - they all report high mainboard temps. Does anyone know what would cause this? All the other temps look fine except for the board temp...

The 6800U is extremely impressive doubling performance over a 9800XT (in most tests i've seen anyway) and humiliating the GFFX. Can ATI double the performance of a 9800XT which they sell for $599CDN now? If they can, great, driver releases will become the extra important factor for both...

wow my new PIII 800 is gonna love this! I can hardly wait to try it on Warcraft III and Diablo 2 if they ever come out in my life time. I wonder why it has 1 molex connector though?
