So... from default, your mobo reads the multiplier as 4? That doesn't really sound like a CPU problem, I'd just flash the mobo to the newest bios and see where it goes from there :).
Howdy [H]er's,
I'm having a little trouble with my bank and my debit card (stupid number crunchers...), so my online ordering isn't going the greatest. I can write checks and use PayPal just fine, but when I use my debit card it just goes to hell. I'm trying to build up my new computer, but...
Problem solved!
I guess I could have tinkered around with it a little more before I posted :p. But, for anyone who has shitty drivers, just download some of Logitech's iTouch drivers for some generic keyboard (I picked the elite, I had the old ones on hand). A couple of the buttons don't...
I just order a new 3200+ Venice core, and I'm wondering how high you guys have gotten yours to clock up. If you'd please post your overclocks and what you're using for cooling, that would be great :). Thanks!

Greetings hard ones,
I just got a new, POS Dynex keyboard from Best Buy tonight (Employee Discount ftw, thank you). My old logitech elite keyboard would let me use my next track, play/pause, etc. keys while iTunes was minimized. However, I've installed the drivers for this new keyboard (and...
Oh, my heart warms that you guys care so much!
Alrighty, I'll cook up another update in a bit. Rads will bring his camera over and I'll use him like the hoe he is, then I'll post pics. I've had some issues with some of the actual computer parts, so progress has been slow, but I'll keep you...
Here's the linkage for a Ultra at GT price:

It's Outpost, so I'd imagine it's all good. Damn good deal for an ultra!
Agreed, those cards only have 128bit memory, not 256. I'm not talking about RAM size, which is measured in MBs, just to make sure. If you're talking about just those two cards... the EZ just would probably win... but they're horrible rips. I'd even get a 9600XT instead of those.
In my humble opinion... 3DMark is piece of shit. Now, that doesn't mean I don't USE it, but as far as telling you how "good" your system is, I don't think it is a good predictor. Take this for example: I used to get around 20k - 21k with my 9800pro -> xt, 3.0C and 1 gig PC2700. After a...
Alrighty folks, picture time!
I gave the chassis a good first coat, still need to do another and then clear coat the hell out of it:
and another view:
Here is a view of a my mock set up rad and res (will be painted):
and finally, I was cruisin' Wal-Nut and found this...
That's... that's... astounding! I just did that yesterday! Holy cow, it was like you knew was I was doing... like you could see me do it!
Anyway, I'll jack my friend's digital camera tomorrow and take some pictures. Also...
I was shopping around on the FS/FT forum and I found a Mag3...
Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates! I had to register for classes for the next semester... and money tends to leave the ol' wallet pretty quick after that. Anyway, I'll post pictures tomorrow or so, but I did a little work today and ordered some fans, so hopefully my rad will be setup and...
Thanks! I had the idea in my head and worked out and zer0signal showed me one he had like it. I think it will work out real slick and should be easy to fill. I'm going to cut a hole in the top of the case and put the top of it out, so filling and bleeding shouldn't be a problem. And hey, if...
Well, I didn't get as much done as I wanted to tonight, but I got my res and part of my case modded. I couldn't start until later, but I should have more done tomorrow with it. Anyway, on with the pictures:
My rad, 77 Bonneville w/ AC
Mr rad from a different angle.
Parts...
As far as games, most all of them should be DX. As far as graphics cards go, either one is going to give you a great experience. At the 200 dollar level, there isn't a whole lot of difference... but the 6600 seems to be coming out on top in places I've readed (various magazines) versus the...
Thanks man!
Update:
In a few hours I'm going over to buddy's house and we're going to start some of the modding. Tonight I should have the rad placement and shroud done, hopefully my res part way done, and some switches installed. Still debating on color/window theme, but I'll come up...
Here's the case I just picked up (for the WC project in my sig):
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-180-024&depa=0
Hah! 24.2 high! Scuk it down!!!111 :p
Nice find though!
Alright, went to Napa today and picked up my rad for about 23 dollars. It's the 77 Bonneville w/ AC, it's pretty beast. I'm not at my house right now (home from college for the weekend), but I'll head back tomorrow and hopefully start modding!
Also looked at parts for my res. Pretty...
they go in half-life2/hl2 folder (don't know if you're using STEAM or not, but that's that generic folder). If it's in Steam, you need to go to SteamApps/youre-mail/ then it'll give it to you.
To run it, type "timedemo whateverdemo" without the quotes.
Didn't say you were greedy for that, I meant that, in my eyes, you were because the day something comes out, and someone already has done a lot of work on it, you dismiss it and want more.
OK... I won't even get into that.
Anyway, this thread has done it's job, I'm fine with it. Lets not...
Well, I just was looking around online for rads and checked out prices online for Autozone.
77 Bonnevile w/ AC
18 bucks isn't bad! I'll stop by my local store this weekend and see if it's the same prices or if they'll match it.
Also, once I start cutting things up, I'll take pictures :p.
Hey all,
I've been running the 67.02's for a couple days, haven't noticed any bugs in HL2 yet, but I decided to try out the other games. I loaded up Far Cry and tried out HDR... and I see through walls, which sucks, because HDR freaking cool :p. So, from what I've done (only tested once...
OMGWTFBBQ! Brent Justice talked to me! :p
Anyway, just did some benches because I'm a whore. Here's what I got:
hard_canals_01 = 83.29 FPS
hard_coast_03 = 84.55 FPS
hard_canals_09 = 75.45 FPS
hard_c17_12 = 57.87 FPS
And here's ma system:
P4 3.0C @ 3.45
1 GB PC2700 Corsair...
Oh, I know. I don't plan on cutting anything up yet, I'm just getting a design out. Measure twice, cut once ;). I plan on getting the rad and then probably building the res. I need those positioned so I can go from there.
Did you miss the part where I said "I understand what it does, don't explain it to me"?
We're not talking about TAA... or anything relating to it. Are you having conversations with yourself and think that we are supposed to understand everything that has been running through your head...
I'll refrain from what I was going to say...
Where does TAA come in with this? I understand what it does, you don't need to explain it to me.
He didn't know about the command, but yet people were still ranting about him to fix this, fix that, or that they wouldn't even believe it unless...
Rock on, 1/2 inch it will be and I'll go to the auto store in a bit. But...
The case arrived today! Ho-what!! Fellas... this thing... is a damned monster. It's about three feet high and heavy as a mug (not too bad, but it's not light :P ). I can't wait to take the Dremel to this thing...
