Alright guys thanks for ALL of your help, it is GREATLY appreciated. I decided to just get a splitter. My prolly LAST question is does is matter what brand I get? There is this one at compusa (the only B&M that carries these splitters). It is a Belking and it says one male to two female, I am...

Would there be any difference between connecting one power connector instead of splitting that one and connecting both? Won't it still transmit the same amount of power though. Like the two splitters would each get 50 percent right? So in the end wouldn't it be the same thing? I am just...

Hey guys I just purchased a 6800 GS and want to know how to upgrade it on a machine with onboard video. I have upgraded before, but it was a card for card, not card for onboard, so I want to make sure I do everything correctly. Basically my computer specs are these AMD X2 4200+ 2 Gb DDR...

I think I know what the problem is. Maybe it is because you have too many things running at the same time. I looked at your computer screenshots and I noticed you had like 100s of little icons in the system tray. I bet you have too many processes running at the same time too. Take a picture of...

more opinions would be appreciated

Is there a real big difference between harddrives in their cache sizes. What is the performance difference between 2mb, 8mb, and 16 mb cache sizes in hardrives? Is it very significant or noticable? Especially in games? THanks.
