    Now is the time Computer buffs to show true support for AMD

    I have nothing against Intel or AMD. I buy whatever CPU gives me the nest bang for the buck. Currently that is AMD. If that changes in the near future, which I seriously doubt, I will buy Intel. I am happy that AMD is here because I remember when CPUs were selling for around $1000 before the...

    Will a MP 2000+ run same speed as XP 2000+?

    I heard the Athlon MPs have unlocked multipliers. If this is true, it may be worth extra money. Personally, I would wait fot the Thoroughbred, which is due out any month now.

    Best Way to Get XP 1800+ to 1600 MHZ!

    I have an XP 1800+ with a Volcano 7. I can get it up to a 145 MHz FSB on my Abit KR7A-Raid. That is 1667 MHz(XP 2000+). It is perfectly stable at that speed. If I go to 1702 (11.5x148), Windows won't boot. However, for me 1533Mhz is fine and I don't notice any slowdown in framerates in...

    need quiet heatsink fan-- Athlon 1500--

    I am using a Thermaltake Volcano 7. It has a copper bottom and a variable fan that adjusts to the temp of the system. It runs quiet when the system is cool and speeds up when the system is hot. I can hear it in my case but it is not a loud whining or annoying sound.

    Is buying a GFTi4600 not worth the extra $100 compared to the Ti4400?

    I would just wait for the next generation of cards. The Geforce 4 seemed to be a suped-up Geforce 3. The 4200 isn't supposed to be out for a while. You also may want to wait and see what Ati releases in the near future.
