hmm, regarding the slocket, how much would one of those cost? As for the vid card, I was considering that as well...but would the video card be limited by the speed of my cpu when it all comes down to it?

Thanks for the suggestions, but $200 for a p3 1ghz is bit outta my price range for now. I'm really only looking for an interim upgrade, so it'd be something along the lines of the c2. Are the C2s in the socket 370 form factor? Like I mentioned, Ive got a slot 1 bx board with a MSI slocket...I...

I'm one of those with a soyo 440bx board running an overclocked celeron. it's got a slot 1, but I'm using that MSI slocket thing where you can attach a socket style cpu to it and insert it into the slot1. right now it's running a 366@550. I'm pretty tempted to just go out there and shell out...

hehe, good thinking, 300 fps all the way!!!

ill have to ask him about his rig actually, he's upgarded so many times, it's impossible to keep up!! i was reading an article in which the author stated that the brain can handle only 30 fps at a time and any extra fps are, in a way, merged to create a sort of limited motion blur..here, let me...

this must be a totally beaten up topic here, but yet again, my friend wants to upgrade and I'm trying to advise him against it. he's already getting 120+ on his rig now on cs and quake, and I believe I've read that this "more fps = better" has a limit. so bottom line is...can you please either...

I noticed that page too, but if you checked out the whole Clie thread (which I participated to), Staples managers would simply disregard the policies even when presented with a printout of the page! When I tried my own PMs a couple weeks back, but not from an online store, but still a store...

Maybe you can help me out, Slackerx. My friend walked into a staples with a printout of an online store that was selling an item for less. Staples wouldn't pricematch it because the store was outside of a 50 mile radius. However, I see you mentioning that they do PM online stores. What is the...

LoSKhan - sure thing bout the link. Just rememeber that I just pulled that link randomly from a search I did. I don't know how good they are as a company or anything. thanks for the suggestion of 60hz...indeed tvs do run at this refresh rate, but it didnt seem to fix the problem. maybe the...

You're probably right, and it looks exactly like that! Is there some kind of standard refresh rate that all TVs run at? Then I can set my videocard to do that...

Ahhhh!!! I should shoot myself! Thanks for all the help guys, but guess what I found? Much like CrackRabbit, it turns out that my videocard came with a s-video to rca adapter. So I happened to have a RCA cable and managed to hook it up to my TV! I tested it out and it works! I get a...

Hi there, I just noticed another product on their page, a connector with 7 pins. Maybe this is it...can anyone confirm if this is what I need? Link Im also going to try and e-mail them. Thanks!

I can't imagine why the audio pins would be in the s-video connector...but in any case, if I were to get a 4-pin s-video cable and then just route that to my TV, then that should supply me with the video, right? As for the sound, I was thinking to get an entirely different cable to plug into my...

Hi there, I was hoping to get some advice on how to accomplish setting up my comp as my dvd player and watching the movie my TV screen. First off, I only have a Ultra TNT 2 that appears to have a 7-pin S-video out plug at the back. What I'm thinking is that all I need to do is get a cable...

Ok, I've went and deleted the link, sorry about that! And SuperRob, like I said, I'm sorry for breaking the rules. I did admit that Upstate had a better price, but I only provided the link because I have Gameboys now, whereas Upstate doesn't. But even so, I realize that it's a violation of...
