I just put an Accelero S1Rev2 cooler on my 4850 and I really need to see what the temps are to make sure I didn't do something wrong and they're getting dangerously high. I'm finally fed up with smartdoctor... it closes within 3 seconds of me opening it, and will never give me an accurate...

I remember when 4850s first came out and everyone was scrambling to cool the 100C temperatures, a lot of people found the Accelero S1 Rev2 to be a great cooler, even though it required some dremeling and modifying to fit. I remember seeing a tutorial / picture guide on how to do this... anyone...

I realize that is how it is in real life, but the game and map design make the game far too fast paced for a "one or two hit kill" game. It should have been slower paced like the old Ghost Recon.

I remember when they announced they were making this mod, everyone thought "oh, cool." Then they began to release more details and began to hype it. Slowly everyone got worked up until it was OMG GONNA BE THE BEST GAME EVER! After that, they hyped it even more, threw in some more hype, and...

My friend and I are looking for some good co-op games... we've already played through Serious Sam and now we're playing through System Shock 2 (which kicks ass, I might add). We're both running a 6600, 1 gig ram, and a normal P4 3ghz, so we can't run any of the latest things. Any recommendations?

How can I tell if the Q6600 I'm buying has G0 stepping?

I can either get a Q6600 and overclock it to 3ghz, or, get a core 2 duo and overclock it to mid 3ghz, probably around 3.6 or 3.8. I have read that some games simply don't detect or use the extra cores in quad cores, so that got me thinking. For a strictly gaming sense, would I be better with...

I'm running an Asrock 775-DualVSTA. And yeah I realize that all CPU's use multipliers, I was trying to say that only the high end CPU's allow it to be changed... came out sounding weird in my original post. On asrock's website the highest video card it lists is the 8800 is the 8800/320m...

Looking into upgrading my P4 3ghz, 1GB ram, 6600 geforce. Yeah I know, a bit behind the times. =P By the way, this new machine will be used for gaming. My motherboard only supports up to a 320MB 8800, so I'm settled on the video card selection, but CPU selection is confusing me. My...
