Anyone else want to chime in on this? The SZ series unavailable and I'm still looking for suggestions.

Ok I've got around 1600-1800 dollars to spend on a new laptop. This must fit into my backpack so it has to be fairly tough, no bigger than a sheet of notebook paper roughly, less than 3 lbs. I like the Fujitsu lifebook P1510D because of it's small size/weight and excellent battery life with the...

I'm currently a Senior in a college computer science program. We started with VB->Java->C/C++ Freshman/Sophamore/Junior Years. Also learned javascript/xhtml/asp/php as adjuncts to those languages. VB is the easiest if you're looking for app style programming, Java is a better language but the...

How about YOU get it right. This generation ATI cards can use the bi-directional PCI-X lanes to ENCODE using the GPU. It's about 5x faster than the fastest dual core AMD processor and it apparently kicks some major ass. Once the software/implimentation is worked out then encoding on our CPU's...

I'm getting fed up with issues related to my SLI premium. Unstable vcore, poor overclocking, etc. I'm going to replace the board with something else. I've decided that I don't need SLI so I don't need to pay the premium for it. Which board should I switch to? I know DFI is the most reliable...

LoL that's untrue. Just randomly shift each bit in the message with no record and it's completely unbreakable:P Not very practical seeing that you can't decode it yourself.

Only one type of unbreakable key. It's called a one time pad. It basically modulates every bit in the message by a predetermined random sequence. As long as the key isn't stolen then the message can not be decrypted. Once a key sequence is repeated in a message it can generally be broken with...

I've tested them lower and saw no real memory bandwith help. I can run them at 2.5 3 3 8 but it only sends me from 6.5 GB to like 6.55 and I prefer the heightend stability. I only saw tangible memory bandwith effects from lowering the CAS and upping the FSB.

Just throwing in my .02. I can confirm that the 1gb OCZ PC4800 Platinum Elite Edition runs at 2.5 4 4 10 1T on my SLI premium. Right now I have it @275 mhz prime stable for 7 hours with an X2 3800 OC'd to 2.5.

I'm not sure what type of cooling you're using. I have a coolermaster R80 watercooler. At first I was disappointed at 1.4 vcore I was running 50 C @max and 36@idle. I decided to do some tinkering, added a 120mm exhaust fan on the outside of my case, and an adjustable 80 mm heatsink fan onto the...

Mine runs 1T@300 FSB at 2.5 4 4 10 settings. OCZ DDR600 Platinum Elite Edition@2.9v

I seriously doubt it's your chip holding you back. I have an XP 3800@2.475 ghz with 1.432 vcore selected in the bios(doesn't actually show that low 1.44-1.47 fluctuation). It's prime stable for an hour atleast, XVid encoding stable for 6 hours. Maybe it's your mother board. BTW I'd like to know...

I paid 1154 for the system minus the additions(stuff I allready had). It also included a Chaintek 6600 LE and 512 mb of corsair value select, logitech mouse/keyboard/speakers. The system isn't overly noisy but I may change out the fan on the watercooler. At 1.45 vcore I push 48-49C...

I've bought my last 5 PC's from cyberpower so they're reputable. Their customer service is annoying but they send out good stuff. I just received the system in my sig on Friday from them.

I know about overclocking. What I'm asking is how does this specific MB work. It doesn't make sense to me like a straight forward setup. How does the memory divider work. It isn't just a straight forward 3:2 setting I can select. I want my board to hopefully run at 300 fsb * 8 multiplier @ 1:1...
