    This a good case?

    I just ordered this case. The case i have now has no intake and only 1 exhaust. My temps are in the high 50s at load now. Think this case will bring those temps down a good bit?

    I just ordered the case w/o the PSU, and ordered a seperate one from Newegg (Foxconn 450w). I have a barton 2500, asus a7n8x, 2x256 corsair xms, and a XFXti4200. I hope this case does a better job of airflow than my current one! My temps are in the mid 50s w/ the case on, and high 40's w/ the...

    Barton 2500+ and A7N8X Deluxe

    Thankyou for the respone, I look forward to learning more about OC'ing. Here is a link to the Speeze heatsink. http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduct.asp?DEPA=&submit=Go&description=Speeze+SuperRock+5T2 It has good reviews, and it seemed like the best buy. I also got some thermal grease. I...

    Barton 2500+ and A7N8X Deluxe

    Does anyone know if I will be able to change the multiplier in this setup, w/o physically modifying (unlocking?) the CPU? I want to slightly overclock, and I will probably leave the FSB alone and voltage alone. This will be my first attempt at OC'ing, and I am a little leary. I also have...

    Oh no

    Is there anyway I could just "rename" my partitions, so they will have have lables again?

    Oh no

    When I turned on my computer at my house this morning, it posted fine, and then stopped. It didn't even get to the Windows XP screen, and I had a blank monitor for about 2 minutes. I powered off and put a windows 98 boot disk in. When it loaded it, it said there were no "valid FAT or FAT32...

    Barton 2500+ Results vs. the Grand Daddy of 2100+ T-bred B's

    I just bought a Barton 2500+ to upgrade from my Athlon XP 1600. I also got a XFX TI 4200 128mb 8x to replace my TI 200 64mb. Think I will be able to tell a significant difference in gaming/overall performance?

    Possible upgrade

    I want to upgrade my CPU from an Athlon 1600XP to a Barton 2500. But my motherboard is a couple years old (Iwill XP333), and I don't think it supports the Barton. So, I was thinking about getting a new motherboard. Would I be able to keep my hard drives in tact (not format) if I put in a new...
