well i know i had almost this exact problem a couple of days ago, if what you're referring to is a stuttering/freezing type sound that occurs what motherboard do you have? i have the P5B-D, and i'm guessing that it's more than likely due to the audio chipset onboard - i ended up having to...

i saw this on their site as well, but was curious as to how true this is? is there a vague possibility of the recirculating air, or is it very likely to occur with a fan with less than 9 blades? i tried to google for the differences between fans with less vs. more blades, but couldn't find...

hi again, just thought i'd ask a quick question about fans and such... is there anything on the market that actually COOLS air, as well as blows it? like maybe an all-in-one unit that might fit in a 5.25" bay (or even two) and intake air, and cool it, then blow it inside? i've been looking...

hmm well problem solved i guess? i bit the bullet and restarted... it posted and said cmos checksum failed, i loaded default values and now the bios is supposedly 0804 in cpu-z... so i guess it worked :) (in a roundabout way) still wondering why afudos and EZflash were so difficult to get to...

hey guys, went to flash my P5B-D bios to 0804... EZ Flash and afudos kept giving errors when reading from floppies (i tried maybe 5 diff brands, i dunno what was up), so i decided to give asus update a go... i fresh booted, shut down most progs, and went to back up my bios just to make...

hi again guys, i put everything together and it's all working fine, thought i'd try my hand at oc'ing this baby but am a lil concerned about temps... hmm my e6600 is idling at around 43°C, running stock, with the tuniq tower... while running with the stock cooler, i was getting temps around...

whoa guys relax... you're worse than women! :P hey i reckon that's a bit harsh, i'm sure n7 was just trying to make light of the situation - not only that, but what he said is kinda true, from other forums i've posted on, kinda seems to happen a bit, but it goes with the territory i...

on these forums and on others, and in reviews, it seems that the X1950PRO, on average, beats the 7900GT... it's just that the XFX 7900GT 520mhz retails here for around AUD$430, vs. the AUD$300 for the X1950PRO so i just can't stop thinking that getting a $430 card for $300, is better than one...

ok so i've been offered a XFX 256mb 7900GT 520Mhz, a couple of months old, with a Zalman cooler, for AUD$300 or i can get a Sapphire 256mb X1950PRO brand new for AUD$300 now i HAVE been looking up reviews and stuff but i get confused cos teh 7900GT seems older and i'm unsure about how...

how come the 7900gt is going to drop? any particular reason? or are you just saying that...

hey guys, thought i might ask a quick question here regarding what you all think about any possible price drops in mid-range dx9 cards when mid-range dx10 cards begin to come out... from what i have read, dx10 is a complete revolution in gfx and not a mere "next step"; will this have an...

heya :) welcome to the forums :D i'm new myself and have been getting a lot of good help from the guys here with regards to getting a new rig, so i have some pointers i can pass on :) and yeh im 90% sure of all this stuff, but maybe just confirm with someone too :P as far as the ram is...

haiii :) thanks for the replies again pplz, great help :) decided to change the heatsink to a thermaltake BT, seems like a lot of ppl claim this to be great at cooling (and seeing that the thermalright 120 and scythe ninja and tuniq aren't available here) @skott: yeh you're right...

n7 gave me a link to a list of ram that uses the D9s :) ram list

yeh thanks for that, i guess i could just get a 7900 to tide me over... thought i might get the silverstone psu, they're a lot easier to come across here (in australia :P) can't wait to get all this stuff and get started! lisa xoxo :lips:
