I just finished building my new computer. I went with the Antec Performance One p160. So far it has been a great case. My question is what is a dangerous heat for my computer. It has a built in thermometer and when i play farcry and halflife 2 the temp goes up. Ussually it is in the 86 to...

I have read some great reviews of MSI and DFI's new Nforce $ SLI boards but no review that compares the two side byy side. It would seem that both are excellent mother boards but i cant deside witch one to buy. Please give me some advise... thanks
I am looking at the AMD 3500+ with a winchester core for $275 or the AMD 3800+ for $428 with a newcastle core. Does the extra $153 justify the extra 200mhz worth of CPU speed? I have no idea how to over clock... nor do i want to tamper with it i just want to know what peeple think. Should i get...

I have desided on buying DFI's nforce 4 SLI-DR motherboard. I have also bought a BFG 6800 GTgraphics card and plan on possible buying another one in a year or so. I want a power supply that will be powerful enough to power two of these cards. So i need help finding a good power supply for...
I am buying some new ram. However the choices seem to be very vast. I was thinking about getting the Corsair XMS series of ram but there seems like a huge selection. I would like to spend any were between 200 and 240 dollars on two sticks of 512 MB. If anyone can make a recomemdation for the...
Ive been holding out for a Nforce 4 board and an SLI setup for a while now but iam begining to have doubts about it. For starters i wont be able to play world of warcraft on a SLI rig because nvidia drivers do not support the game. Also current Nforce 4 mother boards do not match the top notch...
I am now ready to build my new computer. I ve desided to go the NForce 4 route but buy one graphics card at a time. However i cant find any Geforce 6800 series graphics cards that have both PCI express and an SLI certification. I would like to buy either a 6800gt or Ultra but just cant find...
I just read a review for the ASUS A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard. However over the cource of the reading it did not mention if the motherboard supported the new SATA II hard drives. Also it did not mention how much power is needed. If anyof you guys can figure out if this board supports SATA II...
So far what ive read about DDR2 suggests there is no difference over the original DDR. So is there a difference in performance with a SATA 2 mobo and a hard drive that supports SATA 2? The Maxtor Maxline 3 and the new Nforce 4 boards all support the new SATA 2. But does the jump from 1.5gb/ps...
Iam about 3 months away from buying a new computer. Ive been debating on weather or not I should buy a nvidia or ati card. (note... iam not a fan boy of either). Ati's cards really look impressive, as does nvidias offerings. However iam leaning more to the side of nvidia because of SLI. I...
Its unfortunate that HD - DVD won that battle. Blue Ray is the superior format. Well at least my Playstation 3 will have blue ray. The real losers are me and you, cause now we will be forced to buy two dvd players. Unless they come out with one that plays both formats. But that will be...
Are there any prgrams availble that I can use to mesure the frames per second in games like half life , doom or farcry? How much they cost and maybe even how to use them? Any help would be great. Thanks
Iam about 3 or 4 months away from building my new rig. I have desided to get and Nforce 4 mother board and go the whole SLI route. My only real question is how much power do i need to run 2 6800GT's or Ultra's. How much will be enough? Also i will need a four pin to six pin adapter for the...
Three years ago I bought a brand new Dell with a pentium 4 1.8 ghz CPU. I am now in the begining phases of building a new computer. I have desided to move to AMD. I am leaning towards the AMD 3500+ . It is clocked at 2.2 ghz. I really dont want to buy a new CPU that is not at least twice as...
Maxtor seems to have some really nice Hard Drives. In particular I am talking about there new 250 and 300GB drives that feature NCQ, a 16MB buffer and SATA II suport. Does any one out there have one? How do you like it? Do you have a compatable SATA II mother board? Basicly id like to hear...
