    Case and Monitor Scratches

    i find it hard to believe that noone here has touched up a case, or knows someone who has.

    Case and Monitor Scratches

    Anyone know where i can find a guide to painting over scratches on a steel case? Or at the very least where to find paint to match the case (and also what type of paint should be used). And on an unrelated note, it isn't possible to repair a scratch in a monitors anti-glare coating is there...

    Fan control

    Ya it was thinking about PWM that i thought of this. Was just curious about the feasability of it.

    Fan control

    In order to quiet fans most people reduce the voltage but throwing a resistor in there. Has anyone tried switching the fan on/off rapidly to achieve similar results? This would obviously reduce the airflow as the reduced voltage would, but would the rapid switching also reduce the noise?

    To replace or not to replace (a water pump)

    I have a Via Aqua 1300 in my water cooling system which im not too fond of. The first one i had i did the quiet mod on and it busted 3 months later, so i replaced it and didn't do the quiet mod, but the noise was so unbearable i had to do it, and now again there are issues with teh pump starting...

    PC crashes when running 2 instances of Seti@home

    I would think that it would be a conflict of 2 instances of the software running at the same time. I don't use seti, but i would think there might be some sort of conflict of 2 instances of the software trying to use the same system resource at the same time. If you can run prime95 all day, i...

    Probably a stupid question about FSB

    AMD motherboards have a 2x multiplier. So when people run their "true" fsb (fsb used to calculate processor speed fsb*mult) at 200, they are actually at 400. Your 266 is actually running at 133, 333 at 166 ect.

    Ya but before my oc would fail prime after like a minute, but never had a crash related to stabilty in over a month of practically 24/7 use.

    2.0V Vdd

    I do have the northbridge watercooled. And with the 2.0Vdd im able to get it up to 215 stable (no prime testing because i don't believe in it)

    2.0V Vdd

    Anyone know how "safe" this is? I have Rev 2 of the Epox 8rda+ and the bios allows me to up it as far as 2.0V. I know they say the highest u should go for chips is 2V same hold true for the northbridge? I have the northbridge watercooled so heat "shouldn't" be a problem. PS Yes im greedy and...

    Uh-Oh

    CPU in pristine order. Tried dissasebling the whole thing, and just putting in bare minimum,with ari cooling with no such luck. I found a couple other reports of this happaning on other forums. Consensus seems to be go out and get a new one. =(

    Epox Debugging code 29h

    I just took out my mobo to install my new watercooling system, and now my 8rda+ gets stuck on postcod 29h on boot. I don't get anything on the screen, no bios no nuttin, my monitor doesn't even come out of standby. I've tried just about everything i could think of and even some stuff people in...

    Uh-Oh

    Ive tried with a fan in plugged into the header and without one. Same result. Just took out the video card, same result. I also just noticed my HD Led is constantly on. Thanx for all the quick responses too.

    Uh-Oh

    It wont boot at all. The monitor wont evn come out of standby mode. Nothing is new except the watercooling setup. Everything worked prior to watercooling setup. Setup went bascically flawlesly so nothing sticks out in my mind of what could have gone wrong. Sorry shoulda posted what the manual...
