I don't seem to have an option for extended view, all i have is spanning. I'm running a GTX 285 with 2x2407WFP Dell monitors. I want my primary monitor to be 1920x1200 and then have my 2nd monitor be a "blank canvas" so I can drag windows over. Right now its spanning everything across acting...

I'm running an Asus P5W-DH Deluxe MB with a Core 2 Duo E6600 setup with an EVGA 8800 GTX currently. I run on a 24" monitor and everything has normally been fine, but lately anything new has started to bring ole bessie to her knees, sub 20fps in most games at 1920x1200 even at 2xAA. So I'm...

I got my EVGA 8800GTX today, swapped out my 7900GT and after setting up the drivers and everything I've run through 3dmark a few times. So far my scores are as follows: 3dmark05: 17,621 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2330185 3dmark06: 10,090 ORB having problems submitting...

Have flashed through the EZ Flash utility about 6 times all the way up to the 1201 bios. I flashed to the 1305 a few days back and saw the 1401 available today so tried to flash but now when I enter the bios and try to run the EZ Flash it locks up just after the screen pops up. I can flash...

Just got my retail 6600 from Newegg and pulled out my Pentium D 805 which I had been running at 3.33ghz steady for about 3 months. Was able to run SuperPi 1M in 32 secs on the old 805 and had a 3dmark05 score of 8205 with a 7900GT. With the new 6600 at stock 2.4ghz speeds i'm able to run a...

I picked up a PNY 7900 GT, stock speeds are 450/1320 and 3dmark05 pulls a 6982 score. I'm running a Pentium D 805 at stock 2.66ghz speeds. Now if I OC the video card to say 550/1500 (which is well under the "detected" speed by the nvidia app of 592/1584) the scores drop way down to 4900. My...

I haven't been able to find hardly any reviews or posts on the 600W version of OCZ's new GameXStream PSU, only the 700W stuff. I've read that its an FSP unit which rocks but was wondering if anyone owns one or has used one and would recommend it or had any experience with 'em?

Got my Zalman VF900 recently, what an amazing fan looks good, and I'm sure it'll run great. Now if only they sent me four screws to mount the darn thing! The unit has 4 standoff style screws that mount into the retention arms, pass through the card and then get screwed on the back. Two of...

I have an Inspiron 9300 that i'd like to play more games on but its difficult with the laptop keyboard, i'd like to be able to hook it up to my LCD and use a keyboard/mouse but I'm in the stoneage still and using PS/2. I ordered a SIIG ps/2 to usb adapter from Newegg and it works, but it has...

I'm looking for a benchmark or review that compares the following: P4 3.0ghz w/1MB Cache P4 3.0ghz w/2MB Cache P4 3.0ghz Dual Core w/1MBx2 Cache I basically trying to see how these three cpu's all compare as I currently have a p4 prescott with 1mb cache and just want to see how much of...

Hello! Quick question I hope isn't too tricky to answer. I have ordered an MSI K8N Neo-F motherboard, with a retail boxed AMD 64 3000+ cpu (Venice core, Rev. E) and ordered a pair of Corsair PC3200 512MB sticks of ram, its the VS1GBKIT400 kit. Unfortunately the ram did not get here and its...

I have an ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe with 2 pair of 2 SATA connectors on the board, I'm currently using a pair of IDE drives and 2 IDE DVD burners, and wanted to find some sort of way to build an external SATA storage box to house say two to four drives. I was planning on running the sata cables out...

I've been a long time P4 user, my last AMD system was an XP 2000, which has served me well as my linux box! *sniff* But the time to upgrade has come, i've been reading up on xeons and opterons and come to the conclusion that I want to put together an Opteron system. I've looked at the...

Whats the huge difference here? I see the 939pin chip for $800+ and the 940pin for just at $500, whats the huge difference? Both chips seem identical, benchmarks all seem the same, why is one almost twice the price of the other? Anyone have any good info on this? Thanks

Need to order a new 875 chipset motherboard to replace this crappy ECS 848P-A (845 chipset?) that I got comboed with my retail P4 3.2 Prescott, anyone have any input on why I should go Asus over the Abit, or vice versa? Thanks

I'm looking to get away from my old northwood p4 setup and ugprade to an AMD 64, I haven't had the chance to play around with their newer stuff (last AMD comp was K7 lol) so I'm looking for some advice on what I've picked out and lined up to order. Any and all advice would be appreciated...

Looking for some advice, I picked up a P4 3.2 Prescott 1mb Retail boxed socket 478 combo the other day for $199 bucks with some low end ECS 848P-A motherboard, which is running some older intel 848 chipset. Now the system works, but I have some complaints with it, first only has 2 DIMM...
