I just bought this case at my local compusa, full price. I can't see the ad right now as their site is under maintanence, but shouldn't I be able to take it in and get $50 back? Just yesterday I bought it. Er the day before yesterday :P

Hey all, still kind of a lurker here on these forums... Anyhow I just received a q6600 G0 (in my new cosmos case!) on this board, and gonna see what I can do here. I've been using a e6400 with a big typhoon lapped, and got it to 3.4ghz 1.38 or so voltage OCZ rev2 @ 850 (round there I...

Got any?

My ambient is usually 21c-27.

So I made an attempt at lapping my big typhoon heatsink, and the e6400 IHS. Something tells me I screwed up the heatsink, because I'm not seeing any difference in temps. I used 400, 600, 800, 1500 (all I could find). My problem seemed to be that after a few strokes, the sand paper was full of...

I have both the Acer AL2423W and the 22in Acer AL2216W. The 24 is an 8 bit panel as said above, and is in another league compared to the 22in, which is a crappy 6-bit panel. Major viewing angle issues and back light bleeding, but I use it in portrait mode as my 2nd monitor, and it's fine for...

What does yours usually idle at?

Yup thats the core reading.

Yes I do. I can't imagine how you have such a low idle temp with a voltage of 1.4375! Something doesn't seem right on my end.

When I go into check my bios right after a reboot when temps were @ 50c idle in vista in RMclock, Coretemp .95, and speedfan, it reports cpu temp at 38c or so. TAT reports +3 or so c more. Obviously it's going to cool down a little bit on reboot.. but that much? I did this a couple times and...

What size should my page file be? I know very little about pagefiles, should there be one page file? I notice you can make a pagefile for each specific partition in winxp.

I get this odd stuttering in all games, wondering if anyone has experienced the same. Games include, farcry, hl2, WoW (open gl, d3d) and a few others. Could this be a problem with the vid card? Or is this some normal HD lag? It's nothing major, but annoying as heck. I just want it to run...
