Thanks! That ended my googling and ebay search. I guess I will run it fanless since word and internet explorer are all I need, and the fan just kicked in ocasionally before. But, Thanks!

Do you think I can replace the desktop PIII 650 with a PIII mobile 650 or 800 ? I have heard before that they are essentially the same processors except that mobile version generates less heat.

Hi Guys, I have a noname laptop(Netlux). It has a desktop PIII 650/100 cpu in it and it runs pretty happy. But lately, since I often go to libraries and find the quietest place to study, I find myself annoying to others because the fan is fairly loud when it is turned on once a while. It is...

I have been googling the topic for a while, and all I found was that ZM80 doesn't work with ATI 8500DV because the heatsink/fan is glued on GPU. Having a 20dba fan for CPU, 12dba fan for PS, a 20dba fan through a resistor for exhaust and a near silent Seagate harddrive, 8500DV is the noisist...

Hi, We have five dual Xeon 2.4G computers with each one having only one harddrive. The computers usually have 2.0 load all the time. Now, we need to buy a cheap UPS for them. Could anyone be kindly enough to answer my questions? 1. How strong is the current at the boot time for one computer...

21 for motherboard. Your room is cold. I also have AMD 1800. My room temperature is 28C, motherboard 36C, CPU 46C idle, 55C running. I guess your cooling isn't good.

Sorry, I checked again. The cpuinfo shows dual Pentium III (Coppermine). So it is not PIII XEON. I thought they were XOENs.

It was really a surprise when we ( My boss and I) ordered the dual PIII800M workstation which has RDRAM on it. The configurations were clearly listed on the dell web site, and I remember there was no SDRAM option for this system. Later when I tried to find which mother board was in the...

Yes. The MP1700 is in an 100CPU cluster at University of Toronto. But I compiled it with just "g77 -O3". So it was running on one CPU.

I am 100% sure. They were top of line DELL workstation when we bought them.

I got to do something to kill time, so I installed g77 on my AMD 1800 + 512DDR2600 + win2000. I had no intention to use g77 on my computer, but just want to see how fast is my computer. I compiled my code using g77 -O3 on four computers and timed the code. Here is the result. AMD 1800 +...

I thought Staples always had free shipping. No matter how much I spent at Staples, the shipping is always free. Maybe it is because there is a Staples store within 1 mile.

Hi, I have AIW 8500DV, and KX7-333R. It could display in text mode and low resolution, but when I installed the driver, it didn't work once windows was started. I checked the bios and found that the AGP mode was set to 2X, so I set it to 4X, then it works. The problem I have now is that the...

I have similar situation here, XP 1800+, KX7-333R. The are temperatures 40C system, 50-52C cpu idle, and 43-45C system, 56-57C under load. I have a $40 case that has got more than 60 faverable reviews on newegg, and AX-7 the famous heatsink. I put a 34CFM,29dba panaflo on AX-7, one 20CFM,12 dba...

Bump for the question: Are you guys all successful with this card using LCD through DVI to VGA connector? No flicker or anything? Also I found that the TV images look darker compared to a real TV.
