    (Deal over) Star Wars The Old Republic MMORPG $19.99 Amazon

    Been playing it for a while. Have played through 3 classes on Imperial side and found the Imperial Agent storyline to be excellent. There was a server merge a few weeks ago and the server I'm on is quite populated now.

    Why do people subscribe to choosing a political team, Left vs Right?

    IMO, I think it is human nature that simplifies the situation to the point that one is right and one is wrong. Black versus white. It's easier than having to think about the grey area in between.

    *** Official Gigabyte P965-DS3 Thread ***

    I tried your suggestion and now I'm running at 3.0 (334*9). Before that I couldn't get it past 220 FSB. I think setting the memory speed to 2 did it for me. Thanks!

    DFI nF4 Ultra-D queiton about pci express

    I'm assuming you mean PCIE slots 1 and 4. I've read that slot 1 runs at 16x and slot 2 runs at 2x. If you move the SLI jumpers to the "ON" position, both slots will run at 8x. I read on the DFI-STREET forums that the performance difference between 8x and 16x on this board was very minimal...

    OC help with DFI Lanparty Nf4 w/ AMD 3000+

    With Command Per Clock disabled, I think you're running at 2T. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. You might wanna try upping the Chip Set Voltage Control to 1.7V or 1.8V. I had problems OCing with 1.6V on that. Rod

    How has Dfi been (for those Dfi owners) Also how has the Msi been (for msi owners)

    I've got an ULTRA D running good now with the 3/10 bios. I'm using 2 Corsair CMX512-4000PRO in dual channel mode. Everything is powered by an OCZ Powerstream 520W PSU. Happily running at 2.5Ghz using a 3500+ at 250*10 with memory running 1:1 at 3-4-4-8 at 2.8v and 1t command rate. Before the...

    zipzoomfly?

    It's been a mixed bag for me so far. Buying from them has been a good experience overall. Though I've had a few items not ship(my CC was already charged) since they didn't get to my order before they ran out, which I didn't know until the next day when I called to ask if my package was...

    LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D fans stop spinning

    Definitely look to see if CPUFAN or NB FAN have "TURN OFF IF (CPU or NB)TEMP < 50C" I just tried both the 1/25 and 3/10 bios. The default setting doesn't have them turning off at < 50C. The default has both of them turning off at < 25C. So the bios settings on his board might be off when he...

    LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D fans stop spinning

    Make sure all of those are plugged. Then I suggest the following: Unplug PSU. Remove battery. Clear CMOS with jumper. Wait a few minutes. Put CLEAR CMOS jumper to normal operation. Put battery back in. Plug in PSU. Power up. WATCH THE FANS. If they stay on, go into the BIOS and load...

    Pissed Off about PSU

    Well...you've got a lot of people here that are knowledgeable about PSUs and such, and can offer their experiences. You can go with their suggestions. OR you can go to the mobo manufacturer, the PSU maker, NVIDIA, and/or AMD site and see if they have any suggestions for setting up SLI. I...

    ZipZoomFly

    On purchases, they've gotten the items to me 3 days or less. They have very competitive prices compared to other online retailers. Though I've ordered stuff online only to find out the next day they are out of stock. I'm being picky here, but their website search features could be better...

    RMA + Return with ZipZoomFly

    You can return it for a refund. You only have 15 days from the date shipped on it though since it is a harddrive. Return Policy 1-2 week processing time...kinda long if you ask me.

    DFI Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D Video card touching chipset cooler

    I found it a bit disturbing to have my x800xl extremely close to touching that chipset cooler. On my board, we're talking about 1/16" clearance. Maybe less. Everything works great though.

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I got the Ultra-D a few days ago and started setting up last night. All went well until I dropped my hard drive on the tile. I put it in and I'm getting BSODs on XP installation. I have a couple drives coming in next week to replace this. My only complaint so far is that my X800 PRO VIVO card...

    why newegg sometimes sucks...

    I was searching for PC4000 memory from Excaliber PC and looked in Newegg as well to compare prices. I think these 2 are the same item. Newegg's is almost twice as much! :Q I've never tried Excaliber PC before, but the price is right for me to give them a try. Newegg Corsair...

    buffalo ram.. how does it compare

    I just ordered (2) 512MB PC3200 Buffalo Memory from Newegg. It was recommended very highly by alot of people at amdmb forums. A poster named Memoryman is a Buffalo Tech over there at amdmb. I asked him alot of questions about their memory, and he was quick to reply and answer all of them. Rod

    9500 Pro

    Hi Forgive my ignorance on the many aspects of video cards. I recently bought a 9500 pro here in the FS/FT forum and proceeded to replace my other video card. In the boot-up screens, where the memory is tested and then tells you what drives are detected, I get random red/blue/multicolor lines...

    Upgrade my motherboard to ECS L7S7A2?

    It's a decent motherboard. I'm currently running my 2100+ at 2700+ using a 166fsb and at 1.68 volts. Pretty stable so far. Been running the torture test from prime95 for about 7 hours now. It's a cheap mobo in which you get decent sound, ethernet, overclocking options. ECS and AMDMB have alot of...

    *** Official ABIT NF7/S (nForce2) Thread ***

    I've had my NF7-S 1.1 running for about a month now at 2Ghz with a 2100+ on a 166fsb and 12 multiplier. Recently, I upped the fsb to 200 and lowered the multiplier to 10. The weird thing is that everytime I come home from work to turn it on, it boots with a 100fsb. I have to go into the bios and...

    Does Epox 8RDA+ supply a PCI bracket with the TOSLINK optical digital connection in the box ???

    Hi I looked at the manual for the board and saw the pin configuration for the S/PDIF out. I then went to Newegg and saw that ASUS sells an S/PDIF bracket in the accessories/motherboard section for $15. It looks like the same pin configuration. I'm not sure if it would be compatible though since...
