    Panaflo tail question

    Hey, I just got done ordering my new computer parts (which I know a fair amount about), including the XP-120 and Panaflo 120mm High Output fan.

    OCZ VX Memory

    I'm contemplating an upgrade soon, and have heard great things about the new OCZ VX memory. I also know that A64's (I'm looking at a 3500+) are not very picky about memory timings, although the benchmarks on this memory show some nice results. Does anyone else have this memory, can they...

    I'm looking for a PSU for my upcoming rig, and am currently debating between the 600watt OCZ and a couple others (Fortron BS, Antec TP). Has anyone had any experience with one of these beasts? My main obstacle is that I'm thinking of getting a BFG 6800 OC, and want a lot of headroom (Fortron...

    Heat Distortion...

    I've noticed, while looking at lights at night, that many times there appears to be something similar to heat distortion blanketing the lights. I assumed that the amount of heat coming from these lights (they were on a bridge) would not be enough to create visual distortion. My second thought...
