    Can you remove the P180 door?

    My door simply fell off... was pretty easy, heh.

    Bubbles in water cooler

    The situation: I have a Thermaltake Symphony to which I have added a Danger Den Maze 4 GPU. So far so good. The problem: The system is full of tiny air bubbles that go into the Maze 4 and accumulate there. I can move the case around and huge bubbles will come out of the Maze 4, so big...

    Replace fittings on Maze 4 GPU

    OK, I did some of my own research and found out what fittings the Maze 4 takes (something called a G 1/4" BSPP - they're British, unfortunately, so probably hard to find).

    Replace fittings on Maze 4 GPU

    OK, so I got a Maze 4 GPU waterblock, but the fittings don't fit my tubing (the whole OD/ID mixup business). I went down to Home Despot and got a bunch of adapters so I could run both sizes of tubing in my case, then I had a better(?) idea - why not just change out the fittings on my...

    21" CRTs

    Tons of good information in this thread, especially Captante for his point about the viewable area on the Philips. My concern with the FW900 is 4:3 stuff. For movies and applications it would be fantastic, I am sure. But if I decide to play a game that doesn't support 16:10 (I'm replacing...

    21" CRTs

    Thanks guys. At most forums, whenever you say "CRT," everyone looks at you funny. [edit: Just like Bateluer. He's looking at me funny! With that beady yellow eye! :) ] It looks like I can't really go wrong with either choice - though everyone that has the NEC seems to think the Viewsonic...

    I need a really cheap agp card

    BF2 runs fine in 512MB of RAM. Having less RAM makes your load times longer (and BF2 is not a game that loads quickly in the first place). Note, BF2 has serious problems with CTD's right now, if you are crashing, it doesn't necessarily mean you need to upgrade. With only 512MB of RAM you will...

    21" CRTs

    In the market for a new CRT to replace my 10-year-old 17". Yes, it has to be a CRT. I greatly prefer shadow-mask to Trinitron. Price is not really important, as long as it's not absurd. As far as I can tell there are only two choices for a 21" shadow mask CRT - the NEC Accusync 120 and the...

    Proper way to uninstall my X1900XT?

    You don't need to do anything with the drivers, just swap the card. I swap ATI cards without reinstalling drivers all the time. With ATI, you don't want to install drivers any more than you have to :)
