You would need a thermal probe.

Its not about learning to take advantage of the console, its weither they need to. The developers of MGS4 said that current games dont need all that processing power as there not complex enough. Its only torward the end of a console usefuly life that people have to try and squeeze performance...

Ever tryed running 2 6800 off the same cable, unstable as hell. Use two sperate cables and there not a issue. You can only draw so much power down on cable of the PSU.

A platter transfer would have never worked, the read heads sit a 1/10th of the width of a hair off the plater surface, not something that can be set by hand. Like the above said you'll need an identical PCB, you could try ebay for a donar part, just question the seller asking which...

There you go dude. http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2658

From a pharmasy. Alcohol with water does lower the chance of alqe growing but it does lower its cooling potential. Some people do run with it, but water adatives such as water wetter are better.

You can get lasers that melts the insulation off wires, the bomb squad use them.

Well heat rises, so it seems logical although you dont need it, as it would offer little temprature diffrence but with the addtion of more noise. If you want you can put a silent fan up top but it wont make much diffrence at all.

Are you talking about all the cables or just one cable with multiple molex on it? If its the second option then you really should use a sperate cable for the 7800GT as its quite power hungry.

Probally just suffering from a natural death rather than being effected by the deathstar syndrom

Could have something to do with integeration of PCIe or some other I/O via some kind of controller or bus for the Socket-F opterons. After all why is there going to be another 267pins? Unless AMD are integerating a Quad channel memory controller which is probally more than likely which again...

11X multipler would give much more room to toy around with, although I would recon your most likely drop the multipler and raise the FSB, as it unlikely with air cooling you will achieve 300 x 11 =3.3GHz, it more likely you get something like 9 x 300 =2.7GHz. Saying that the 175 would have been...

I terribly sorry, yes I did mean to say DBL. I would say steer clear of OCZ, they have a very tough binning system this means if this RAM was capable of running at a faster speed to fit in line with OCZ other products it wouldnt be being sold as PC3200.

In terms of gaming just now most games would run quickest on the SD 4000+. This is because most games are run on a single thread so dual core provide no benifit. Although what were starting to see now with games is a move to multiple threads which means dual core processors receive a boost...

There no real cooling diffrence but its recommended that you use something like distilled water or as I recommend deionised. This will stop corrution of the metals(water block, rad and pump). Its also recommended you use a water aditive to stop algie etc, such as water wetter. You'll be able...
