As u folks can see, I joined a long time ago but have not contributed much to the forums. This is purely because when I made a few posts, what I realised that the fanboys will never allow any rational discussion on these forums. So I just decided to take a backseat and avoid headaches over this...

Man I like the sound of that :thumbsup:.

I'm running a 6600 gt with 1 GHZ ram (stock) on a cheap 300W PSU with just 14A on the 12v rail. Other than that, I have 4 256 MB modules, a SATA drive, an optical drive, an NIC and a Sound Blaster Audigy running on this sucker. The required ratings on most sites for Vid cards are "Play it...

Well, I turned up the settings to Very High and 1152X864 and I must say it looked great but all the indoors which I remember are supposed to be dark are extremely bright and shiny and the grass appears to be black in some areas. I initially turned down the detail to medium but to no avail...

agreed. Thats why I also posted my doom3 scores, it hasnt even doubled! What I am really trying to avoid is a fresh install of the OS, coz I am sure its some sort of driver problem. Anyone else?

OK guys, I know u folks r sick of this question asked again and again, and personally even I dont read threads with such titles but I "think" I did things right while switching vid cards. 1. Uninstall drivers from control panel. 2. Restart and in safe mode, run driver cleaner. 3. Replace...

where in pakistan r u hatim? I'm sure you could have gotten a gf4 ti 4200 128mb agp 8x for the same price, which is a good upgrade considering you had a gf3 ti 200. If you havent traded yet, dont do it and look around a bit. If you have, (sigh) then get rid of the 5200 while you CAN get a price...

Anyone?

Hey fellas! I was wondering what kind of performance gain I can expect from a move to kingston value DDR 400 CL 3.0 (currently using 333). I am planning to put it in an Asus P4P800 along with a 2.4C and also plan on enabling Hyper Path (Asus's PAT). I hope there are no issues with Kingston and...

Hi all! I am running an intel d865perl with a 2.4C. I have installed the intel active monitor and every time I played games, temperature on system zone 2 went beyond 50 Centigrade which is the threshold value. So I turned up the threshold value to 60 Centigrade and now, the temperature doesnt go...

I recently upgraded from a 1hgz athlon thunderbird on a gigabyte 7ZX with a 235W power supply to a P4 2.4C on an intel d865perl with a 350W power supply. My vid card is a chaintech GF4 TI 4200 128 MB, and previously, I had comfortably OCed it to around 275/500 without any problems running 3dmark...

Hey Naruto, what overclocking utility are you using? Powerstrip allows only 539 mhz for memory?

Hi all!! I checked out some benches here at Anand's and atleast for my use (gaming mostly), I think the performance enhancement is negligible between 533 and 800 fsb. Is the price premium really worth it. And what ram is the 533 fsb processor coupled with best, 266/333/400 ? I guess if I do get...

Thanks viper96720, but I have already oced ram with powerstrip. One more thing, I noticed that the max powerstrip allows me for ram is 539 mhz which even though I havent hit yet, what other software can I use with my 41.09 dets in case I get lucky and get past that 539 mark? Links would be...

Hey fellas! I am running a Chaintech GT20 ti 4200 128 MB on 1ghz athlon, and as you might have guessed, I never tried overclocking it as the cpu is the major bottleneck. As of recently, I am hoping to upgrade to a P4 2.4 ghz and thought maybe I should ytry and see how far will this chip allow to...
