    Memory Divider Issues on DFI Infinity RS482

    When attempting to overclock my 3000+ on my Infinity RS482, i've run into issues with memory dividers. My ram runs fine at the stock 1:1 ration at ddr 400, but I can't boot into Windows over ddr 367 when using a memory divider. I've tested my processor up to 2.6 GHz, and my FSB to over...

    Recomend me a 19" CRT

    I had a 17" trinitron monitor that had 2 lines in the middle of the screen. However, these lines were only visible when the screen was very light (like on windows startup or web browsing). Most of the time I forgot they were even there.

    Logitech Precision PC Gaming Headset $12.82

    Used these for a couple months, then they broke (wiring went bad where cord connects to the headset). Looking back, these are not adjustable at all, and began to hurt my head after a couple of hours of usage. I'd pass on these and find a traditional over-the-head style headset.

    Can you guys recommend a good nForce4 Ultra mobo?

    I agree. The last 3 Asus boards i've had have given me some pretty serious lip, and the Abit board is as solid as they come.

    New PCI video card

    Be careful before you go out and buy a new motherboard. Companies like Dell are notorious for using non-standard sized motherboards and mounts inside their computers. I would make sure you know exactly what kind of board is in your case right now, or you're gonna end up with a lot of...

    Anything better than Radeon Express 200 for ~$60

    The radeon express chipset has built in x300 graphics, so you'd have to look for a 6600\6600GT or higher. In that case, i'd tell him to save about another $90 or so (up to $150) before buying anything.

    Creative X-FI Xtreme Fidelity Accelerates PC Games by 17%

    sound card install gone bad

    I've never had more problems with a piece of hardware than I had with my Audigy 2 ZS. Try Creative Tech Support, they spend a LOT of time helping people out with the havoc their products wreak on computers. I would suggest the Creative Tech Support forums AND contacting their Tech Support via...

    New Build Graphics Card Help!!!

    Yes, a 9200se is that bad. Not only is it the scumsucking bottom of the line (no offense), but it's the SE version of the 9200 as well. This means that they cut every corner possible to make a cheap card. I highly doubt anyone ever inted this card to be used for any game put out after 1998...

    Have there been any X800XL vs. 6600Gt reviews yet?

    I doubt we will ever see the x800xl. All of the links for the x800xl on dealtime and other shopping sites are broken, with etailers web pages saying something like "Product Discontinued" or "This page no longer exists on our server". The product was announced over a month ago (December...
