As for media, I've been using FujiFilm DVD+R Media 16x, it burns real well no problems. If you have a BJ's price club near you, they have a great sale on them I just picked up some today. 50pk ($20 reg price minus $10 sale for today minus $5 rebate = 5.00 total price) not bad... good luck

I would go with NEC, I have a 3500AG and 3550A both work flawless.

I use the x800xl AIW, im very pleased with its performance thus far...

You can get a pocketpc PDA, I have a Dell x50v, that might be a little bit of your price range, I'm not sure if Dell still sells the x30 High, which also plays Divx videos as well. My new Toy (Treo650 PalmPDA/Phone) also plays divx videos as well, You will need a program called TCPMP, its free...

I just picked up a 480w TP2 Antec PSU, its nice and quiet and Its great so far.

Yea something like that, Im sure the processor will come with some thermal paste, i would suggest arctic silver 5. The key thing to any install dont panic when it doesn't work the first time you power it on (unless u see a flash of light and a puff of smoke) its probably a card that needs to be...

Well I just picked up the Antec 480w TP II last week, I only used for a day so far but it seems to much quiter than the stock PSU I replaced it with.

well since this new case I recently purchased dont have a speaker built in, I couldnt hear if the motherboard was giving me any alarms before it did cut off, but tonite when I install the new heatsink and It boots up ok, then I will know for sure that was CPU/Heat problem.

Why don't you just download it and find out (its free). I tried it on my x800xl a while ago when I only had 1GB of RAM, there was a bit of stuttering but nothing much to affect the gameplay, I had most of the settings set on high at the time since it was my first time running the game. I have...

I never said it booted up, it just turned on and stayed on without shutting off, thats how I zeroed in on that the problem was a processor problem. My new fan and thermal compound should be here today, so Hopefully everything will be back to normal. Is it common for thermal compound to dry up...

Actually Let me clarify my last post, It was the thermal compound that I took off, (it happened to be the same color of the heatsink). I decided against using it because it would be to risky so I ordered a new CPU fan and arctic silver 5.

Yea I tried that last night still the same reaction, Then I thought of something, the center of the fan was covered in a pasty type film from the melted heatsink. So I scraped it off and tried it again....voila, it worked It seems the processor needs to be in constant contact with the copper...

Yea I have the same board and was wondering the same thing, I enabled it and noticed no increase in performance.

I like newegg as well especially with the buyers comments, I buy most of my pc hardware and software from newegg. Just don't buy a LCD monitor from them,their megapixel policy sucks

I have been using a 3.2mhz processor and a P4C800-E deluxe mobo for about a year now, last night when I turned on my system It would boot up and shut right off, after the memory test completed. I tried the power button again, but the same thing continued, no warning or anything just shut off. So...
