    Which is the best PDA?

    I can find each of these for about the same price. Primary uses will be gaming, photos, music, taking notes, videos, etc. All have a 400mhz cpu and bluetooth. They all have 64mb ram and rom, except for the IPAQ which has 32mb rom. Dell X3i - Has 1 SD media slot, Includes wireless 802.11b Asus...

    Is something wrong with my GeForce 4 Ti 4600?

    << So what do you think the problem is? Is it because I was stupid and bought a Dell instead of building my own computer from the ground up? I knew I shouldn't have bought this POS! This really stinks! Also, I still can't find any drivers? >> If you need drivers for an Nvidia card, go to...

    o'clocking Radeon 8500

    << First I'd overclock the card to see how high it will go with-out the mod if it's a retail card. And I would sit down and watch the entire set of benches in 3DMark2001 to look for any artifacts/corruption so I knew how high it was actually going with out any artifacts. From what i've read...

    o'clocking Radeon 8500

    I'm looking to o'clock my Radeon 8500 and was looking at this mod here: http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=953 I also want to add better cooling to my card and was looking for a place online to get good ramsinks and a better fan for the CPU. Any recommendations?

    Does a faster processor help in higher gaming resolutions?

    This really all depends on what video card you have! Having a fast cpu but a really slow graphics card isn't going to help much. And having a really fast graphics card and a slow cpu isn't gonna help either. There is a balance with these things. I've known people with a 400mhz system and a...

    Why isn't 3DMark2001 S.E. recognizing my Northwood???

    Guess you should've gone with AMD!

    Which card to buy?

    There are a number of benchmarks that compare the geforce 3's and 4's along with the Radeons. One here on anandtech and another good one on tom's hardware. I have seen no comparison with the 256 DDR that you have. But it's safe to say it's so slow it would'nt even show up on the graph if you...

    Geforce4 MX 440 woes! ***UPDATED***

    << << btw. how much did you pay ? >> I paid 150 plus tax. Which is why I thought it was a steal! I had no previous info about the MX series. Now I know better! I called circuit city and they said they would refund, no problem. >> Pricewatch has the price listed as $97

    What's the fuss? P4 1.6 o/c'ed to 2.3 still probably not faster than comparably priced AthlonXP

    What's funny to me is it takes an Intel chip clocked about 600mhz higher than an AMD chip to beat it. It's like putting a blower on a Pinto so you can beat a mustang. AMD is still the greatest.

    Is the End for the AMD Really NEAR??

    AMD is the leader in price/performance, clock speed for clock speed AMD mops the floor with Intel. Intel right now is only slightly ahead of AMD, but it will be short lived. When the hammer comes out AMD will be back on top again for awhile. On tom's hardware he reviewed the fastest chips for...

    The 8500 out performs the TI200 in every test and has more features and better image quality.

    GF4 Ti4600 Decision: Visiontek vs. PNY?

    I haven't heard anything bad about them. I know lots of folks have one or the other and I've not heard any complaints.

    GF4MX versus competitors like GF3 and Radeon

    << << << The MX would be a nice option if it cost 70 bucks, not 170. >> Look on pricewatch.com The Geforce 4 MX 440 is now $96 >> Interesting, considering the 420 is 14$ higher, and much closer to the MSRP. It looks a supply glitch , or severe lack of demand. >> No one is buying...
