Yeah, I'm not planning on removing the HSF, but I want to know if this thing is actually supposed to only run as it heats up or if mine is the only one acting like this. Its the newer version of the card with the black heat sink and the light up panel on the side that glows xfx in green.

So, I've just finished building my new budget dream system which is damn quiet, and I look at new XFX card and notice that the fan only runs intermittently unless the card is under a heavy graphics load. This is new territory for me as I have never seen a top of the line card not need constant...

Are you saying that you can change the possible display resolutions for a game by changing the config file? If so, could you tell me how to display Diablo II in a higher resolution than 800x600, because I just bought a new 8ms 19" lcd monitor and displaying it at that low of a resolution leads...

You had me until the clinton conspiracy charge.

Ok, I am currently writing what is turning into as much a research paper as a comparison of politial theory in two books and I need some input from the general population. Essentially the two books boil down to differing views on who holds the power in our government. One book written in the...

Yup, it is set to auto detect in bios, and even when I refresh the view to auto detect, it still does not see the drive. I had forgotten that I have yet to partition it so that explains the windows thing. However, I'm still confused as to why I cannot get the bios in the K6 system to recognize...

I've been attempting to replace an old system's hdd with a new western digitial drive. When the drive is in the system, it will not recognize it in bios, no matter if its primary, secondary, or whether or not the jumpers are set to primary, secondary or cable select. The sytem is an old K6 box...

Since I've finally finished up my work via telnetting into my job. I can now afford to take some of the kid gloves off when dealing with my system. My system specs are in the sig and I'd like to know where to start when ocing. Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah, the only thing I see this doing is reducing rapes, but increasing assaults on women. Do you really think the guy is just going to pack up his injured junk and go home?

that's not true, and besides many of the grocery unions do more to hurt not only their workers, but their customer base as well. While I don't think that what wal mart is doing here is right, I also have seen instances of local grocery chain workers losing a significant part of their weekly pay...

The network port is on the motherboard itself. I cannot really remove it without wire snips and a soldering iron. I needed the two network ports, which is why i bought the mobo. I do some ocing and need the room below my cards for air flow and do not want to install a nic if I don't have to.

After having my neo2 Plat mobo for only a few weeks and having no real issues, now a few have popped up. The one that is really starting to anger me is the nVidia networking port. Originally this was my connection to the outside world since this has the nVidia firewall built in. Then after...

Now, I am not advocating illegal downloads, but as far as the cost of CD's go, someone explain this to me. Unfortunately I have seen "cribs" enough to know how the media stars of today live. Someone please explain to me how a CD costs that much for production? Indeed I realize that there is...

ok, the floppy drive is less than a year old and from a reputable manufacture, and it was just working 3 weeks ago. If you're just going to tell me to buy a new one, don't make the post. I do not piss money away just because I don't know what's wrong with something. I don't care if it is only...
