    VP912b vs VX924

    Will Viewsonic's new VX924 LCD monitor surpass the quality of the VP912b? I've been reading about the VP912b for a long time now and heard great things about it. However, someone has enligthened to me about the new 4ms VX924. I was just wondering if this new monitor would be better in terms...

    Viewsonic VP912b

    I think I have decided upon getting this monitor. I just wanted to make sure this is the best LCD on the market. I have read through numerous posts about the 2005FPW, but I just don't think the widescreen is right for me. As for this LCD, I have read very few bad comments about it, but very...

    LCD and vsync

    If you have vsync off in a game, such as Counter-Strike 1.6 and Counter-Strike Source, where you get over 75 fps, will this look choppy on LCD's. I know on my bad Dell Monitor, anything with higher FPS than my refresh rate will cause "tearing" and choppiness of the screen. I'm wondering since...

    Questions about purchasing a LCD...

    I know it's been asked a million times, but I need to ask a few different questions. Currently, I am deciding between the VP912b, 2001FP and 2005FPW. I have a few issues with the FPW though. I know that the newer games features widescreen support, but I play a lot of Counter-strike and...

    New version of vp912b?

    I've recently looked into buying the VP912B as a replacement for my old CRT. However, over the past month I have not been able to purchase one, but will do so in the near future. But a post at newegg was brought to my attention. Link: http://www.newegg.com/app/View...tion=24-116-338&depa=0...

    Incredibly high temp readings?

    Hi, I recently put together a system and appearantly I have a very hot CPU. Off of MBM5, it states that I get 117degrees celcius when the computer is left at the windows xp desktop(fresh installation of XP no programs at all except for MBM5). Isn't that impossible? I went to check BIOS and a...

    A few OC questions...

    Thanks a lot for your input guys =] I decided to go for the 3500+ with a XP-90 and Panaflo 92mm. This leaves me the option of overclocking or not because I've heard that the 3500+ is just fine at stock speeds. Again, thanks for your help on making my purchase =]

    A few OC questions...

    I think I may plan on overclocking a 3200+ to save money rather than purchase a FX-55. Now I know everyone here says, "Go with the 3200+ and save lots of cash!" However, if the performance margin on the FX-55 is pretty significant, I would really like to purchase the best chip I can, as I...

    (90nm)3200+ vs (90nm)3500+ for OC

    90nm core Which proc. would be better to overclock to FX-55 speeds? (2.6ghz) I understand that it is more stable to overclock a 3500+ and it is also possible to get the 3500+ to 2.8ghz. So all in all, which proc. is better to overclock based on stability, heat and headroom for...

    FX-55 vs. 3500+

    I need to make one last check before I go ahead and bu the 3500+. All in all, the 3500+ will perform just as well as the FX-55 in all areas of computing? If there is a very minimal difference, I am just going to go and get the 3500+ instead! In order to overclock the 3500+, I think I...

    FX-55 vs. 3500+

    If you can overclock a 3500+ to FX-55 speeds(2.6ghz), would it run the same as a FX-55? In terms of gaming, an overclocked 3500+ appearantly beats FX-55 in fps. However, gaming aside, I was wondering if an overclocked 3500+ performs on par with the FX-55 during other computer use. For...
