I don't overclock much. I do a little bit, but I haven't spent much time finding the limits and finding the most stable settings. I know that's probably strange; I have one of the best OC'ing boards, and even the Opty is the right stepping for some nice overclocks. I generally buy overclocking...

I'm in the position to upgrade some of the components in my computer. I don't keep up with technology as I used to, so I need some help. My current rig: AMD Opteron 165 DFI LanParty UT nF4 Ultra-D 2GB OCZ Plat. EL PC3200 DDR eVGA 7800GT OCZ GameXtreme 600W PSU I'm in the position to...

Coolio. Thanks for that info. I'm looking to buy right now, so I'll head over to Dell and get a couple.

Does anyone have a word on the Samsung 205BW? Judging from NewEgg's comments, it looks to be decent. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824001081

I'm interested in this panel as well, mainly because of the high contrast and greater color gamut. I was originally leaning towards http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824001081 to get into the widescreen market, but if the 931C is a good monitor, I'll have to forego widescreen...

Update: I switched over to the Marvel interface and saw no change; so I'm going to look into PCIe cards and see what available. Thanks all for your thoughts and suggestions!

I set the optimization to throughput after I installed the drivers. I will try the other interface and report back. I didn't know it was a Marvell; I thought they were still 3Com (shows you how much I've kept up with nforce).

No, I'm not. I knew it caused many problems, so I didn't bother installing it.

Background: My wife was two-boxing in WoW. Our main computer is a Opteron 165 running on a DFI LanParty NF4 Ultra-D mobo. We're currently using the nForce networking connection. The second box she uses is a Intel MacMini, with a Marvell Yukon. On average, the Yukon's latency is 50ms to 100ms...

Just a quick question: Is the Dell 1907FP still not recommended? I thought they changed the panel they used a couple of months back.

Here's want I'm gonna do. I'm going to keep what I currently have until Feb. or March. I planned on getting the Praetorian 730 anyway, and after reading that thread I think that'll help tremendously. When I get it, I'll probably get Arctic Freezer 64 or an SI-120, depending up whether or not...

Thanks, y'all! Aye, the WaveMaster doesn't have the best airflow, but that's not why I bought it ;) I'm gonna read that thread. I may get the AC Freezer for another box. After a quick look, I wonder why I even missed it or passed it up. Thanks again!

I'm looking to get away from my stock AMD HS/F. I've got a DFI Ultra-D in a CoolerMaster WaveMaster case. I usually don't over clock (I'll raise a voltage here and there, but that's usually it), but I want something to keep the CPU cool. Can anyone give me any recommendations?

I've been out of touch in the tech world for quite a while. I've convinced my wife to allow me to slowly upgrade the computer. In other words, one component at a time. My current rig is: AMD 3000+ Winchester MSI Neo2 Plat. 4x512 Corsair Value Select GeForce 6800 I recently bought a...
