I'll be painting my Inspiron 9300, but only the top bit of it... hard to describe but the bottom is a nice black I do enjoy and the keyboard colour is just fine at black also.
I'm looking for suggestions and advice on how to do this, I found instructions on removing the parts I want to on...
Is there enough clearence for this HSF, I've been running my XP2500@3200 for years now on stock cooling and I think it's time for a real cooler, see if I can run it even higher. Will I have enough room for it to fit?
I want to find my system on some benchmark page with mutliple choices for video cards to see what the next logical and budget minding upgrade path is to be. I've got a card in mind but I don't mind spending a little extra cash if it's worth it.
Anyone know of such a database? Can you get on...
After seeing some information on the G80 and the two chips plus the odd combination of RAM I'm assuming this card is a dual purpose card. Either PPU + GPU or GPU+Other? The 768Meg model probably means the GPU gets 512 and the other(PPU?) gets 256 making the total amount. Granted this is all...
I've got a couple of cards here I'm considering buying for my aging XP3200 rig, it's got an agp FX5200 in it right now so anything is better. Heck the X300 in my laptop is better.
I'm looking to buy one of these cards at these prices (I'm in Canada).

I've got a BEFSR41 but no power adapter I was wondering if anyone had one, I know it's 9V 1000mA but the Linksys doc says it's AC power and that is hard to believe. I was wondering if anyone had a BEFSR41 and could check on the power adapter for it's output.
I need a soundcard a minimum of 4 channels and I was looking at this one, It is for my notebook to be used with an M-Audio X-Session for on the go house parties. Is this a viable option and does anyone know if all channels are pre-amplified or no amp? Any thoughts?
Anyone with one of these notebooks know how to get the Wifi to turn on without OS detection using function+F2? I tried using a knoppix livecd and the internal wifi card will not turn itself on upon bootup of the os. It's fine under winxp which is loaded but I need to do a few things with linux...

Athlon XP 2500+
got it bumped up to 2.2ghz (3200+) by just putting fsb up to 200... works like a charm but to get it stable i had to bump voltage to 1.8...
My friend's birthday is coming up, he's saving for a car (instead of upgrading), but another friend of ours just bought a brand new A64 3700+ and 7800GTX and he's really jealous. Soooo, I was thinking of buying him a card to replace his current (and shit) 5600nu in his XP 3200+. I was thinking...
It's AGP... found it for a nice price $249.99 Canadian at a retail store.
Sapphire ATI Radeon X800GTO 256Mb DDR 256-Bit VGA/Tv-Out/DVI AGP Video Card
That's what it's listed on their website is that the correct one that unlocks? I might sound dumb-founded but the only ATI card I have is an...
I registered this chan on irc.enterthegame.com, i noticed because a few people were idling in it but no one owned the channel, and w/e maybe if some ppl on the boards go to ETG and enjoy [H] they'd stop by or whatever... just hoping it helps out
p.s. -> if it infringes on copyrights or...

I was looking through some local classifieds and saw a few high end cards all BBA for sale, mostly x800's. I was wondering who they were and their reputation... afaik they only make ATI cards?
ASUS P5P800 (533/800 FSB)
Extreme Edition 3.46 Ghz 1066FSB
PC3200 ram
i'm worried about this mobo not taking the EE, can the 533 fsb get doubled to produce 1066 and work fine with this cpu?
Since most people are starting to suspend their hd's in the 5.25 bays i was thinking, couldnt you just remove the 3.5inch hd cage off of a case and suspend your 1-2 drives in the 5.25's, it would create space for a pump and maybe reservoire inside much smaller cases. if i ever get off my ass and...

Can someone suggest good ramsinks to use that will fit out of the box on the bfg 6600gt ?
I've been checking out the roundup of agp 6600gt's on firingsquad and my mind is set on bfg, except BFG runs the memory at 525 spec and has no active vram cooling, this has me a bit worried personally. I...
Can a shit PSU slow a machine down? I'm used to having random reboots and all that but on a Prescott (where it uses alot of power) can the PSU cause the machine to slow down due to lack of power?
I've got some spare time and a bit of cash, I was wondering what I would need to get started on painting my case, I've got a noname case i got for 45$ CND, it looks sorta like a space ship with a handle up top...

Most if not all video manufacturers come with shitty stock cooling, I for one would pay the extra 50$ to have a card produced by Zalman or Arctic if it came with their performance cooling and overclocked (med-high) with a warranty, I'm always afraid of voiding warranties when changing stock...
I'm very close to picking this cooler up for 25$ CND flat. The reviews look good, it's going in an older K7 machine that still has a stock cooler so for sure it would make a difference but I want to know if anyone else uses this hsf and if they have had any issues with it.
I'm looking to upgrade one of my older rigs from a 5200 to a 6200, I'm probably going with an XFX 6200 though the site that has it in stock (not e-tailer) does not show if it's a TC/TD model that can't be unlocked... also does not tell me if it's 128-bit or 64-bit. Did XFX ever make a TC/TD 6200...
