I recently replaced my Venice 3200+ in my main PC with a Opteron 165, so I have an extra cpu sitting around.
My current HTPC is a NF2/2500+ setup, and I was thinking about putting in my Venice, but obviously, I need a 939 MB. Can anyone recommend something good for HTPC use that doesn't...
Right now I have the setup running on a stock HSF at 200MHz with the multiplier set at 11x, which I think is a very slight OC from the stock 2.0GHz?
Anyway, I'm thinking about ordering the Thermaltake SI-97A heatsink and would like to start to bump up these numbers. Is it better to start to...
Hi gang,
Looking for a HTPC-looking type case. Non-tower, needs to support full sized ATX MB and hopefully ATX psu, although that one isn't a must 100%.
Anyone getting rid of anything any time soon?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I'm following the OC'ing guide and stuck right at the beginning. :confused:
I'm trying to change the Ram Divider:
RAM divider = "100mhz 1:2"
Is this the 1T/2T setting? Or what else would it be called in the BIOS?
Thanks!
Aaron
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a quiet CPU cooler to use for an HTPC. I checked the Zalman site and unfortunately, the 7000/7700 don't fit the NF7-S MB's. What are you guys using?

I know everyone is talking about the AMD64 OC'ing guides, but I'm just putting together a new HTPC and just got an Abit NF7-S v2 and I'll have a AMD 2400-mobile in the mail tomorrow. I understand that OC'ing the 64's is quite different from the Barton's. Does anyone know of a nice guide for...
Hi gang,
Just upgraded my P4 system with a new AMD setup. So Im selling the following:
Intel P4 2.53GHz P4 533MHz bus
Gigabyte GA-8SR533 motherboard
Retail heatsink and fan, works perfectly, never OCd
$100 plus shipping
Antec SL-350 350W power supply. Came with my case.
$20 +...
What do you guys think the price and the specs will be for the cheapest G70 when released? I just picked up a x800xl, but I'm not opening it yet. Just kinda contemplating if its wise to buy a "older" card this close to a new release date.
Any thoughts if there will be a street price of...
I think I've made my decision down to these two. They will be powering a non-SLI, moderately OC'd setup. Most likely a Venice 3200+ with a Asus A8N-E MB and a x800xl. And maybe a raptor and another SATA drive.
I had been thinking about the Modsteam 450W, which was $60 AR at Monarch, but...
Any ideas what might be wrong with my PC? Do I have a conflict somewhere?
I had a ATI 9700pro for the last 6 months. Everything was fine. About a month or two ago, my PC starting VPU Recovering 6-7 times a day. It would randomly reboot and lockup. I tried a fresh OS install and that didn't...
Hi,
I need a new video card with DVI out. I'm considering either the 4200-4600 GF4 series or an ATI 9600XT. I'm hoping to keep it around $50 for the GF4 or $100 for the 9600XT. Anyone have anything they're selling?
LMK!
Thanks,
Aaron
Hi group,
I know this really isn't the right forum for this question, but since a lot of you might be going thru this, I thought someone might know.
If I (hypothetically) wanted to order a 2005FPw and 2001FP to see which I liked better and wanted to return one, what exactly are the terms...
Hi, I got a BFG 6800OC today and installed it using the 66.93 drivers from the NVidia site. I want to see if this card can go to the 16 pipes and 6 shaders.
I went thru the procedures to put checkmarks by the hardware items in RivaTuner, and thought I enabled everything, but my benchmark...
I've been eyeing the Dell 2001FP for quite a while, but the wife still thinks $650 is too much for a monitor. I've been looking at the BenQ models, namely the FP931 and FP937 and they are around the $400-$450 mark. They have 16ms and 12ms response times, so gaming should be ok. Besides the fact...
