    "Your video card fried the LCD!"

    A friend of mine is on his fourth Apple 23" Cinema HD now. He has been through hell dealing with those stupid Apple reps. The first one was pink; the second one had a really bad color consistency and the third one had 8 dead pixels. When he was returning his third one, I was with him at the...

    Which is faster? 6800GT or X800XL??

    After reading all these posts, I am confused -- which one is faster, GT or XL? I think they are pretty much on par with each other, are they? And the image quality? People say at higher res. AA and AF don't matter any more, true??

    Is Optical out better than the S/PDIF out?

    I know this sounds silly but a friend of mine insists that Optical out to a receiver yields better sound than the S/PDIF out. I told him both of them are digital out connectors and all they do is passing over the signals so unless the opical and coaxial cables are of much quality difference...

    Is my P4550 (3.4E) running too warm?

    I am using Asus P5AD2-E Mobo. Originally I wanted to get a 550J but searched high and low with no luck. My ventor is very lenient on this one and they would let me try another or even exchange it to another type of proc if I so request. Right now, this P4 550 runs like 50C idle and 65-68C under...

    Which is faster? XMS XL PC3200 or XMS PC2-5300 Pro?

    While DDR2's have suffered the overly loose latency timing, XMS PC2-5300 Pro from Cosair seems like a dream RAM module particularly for overclockers. It might sound odd if pitting XMS PC5300 pro against its little bro. but this time around, can the extra low timing on XL be enough to make up for...
