    GA-p35-DQ6 will not boot... Please help

    What really sucks is The warranty is certainly voided by the fact that I installed the Tunique (had to cut off a back plate heatsink to make it fit. ^^ I don't know what is wrong with the settings I used, since it was stable @ 3.15 in orthos, and FAR below my best OC of 3.55ghz. I had it...

    GA-p35-DQ6 will not boot... Please help

    When I turn my pc off for the night in the morning I would not be able to boot. The power turned on, no beep would occur, fans spun up. Then about 10 seconds later, the power turns off. Shortly this process repeats as it turns itself on. When I used the bios reset jumper this was fixed. I was...

    "no P2P" at colleges

    Universities generally won't care that you steal, however they do care when 85% or more of the network traffic is P2P. Keep in mind the school provides the internet service, and they may restrict it however they see fit.

    Upgrading a 9500Pro, looking at the 6600GT

    I don't base purchasing decisions on any single game or engine. So the HL2 benchmarks won't affect me as they seem to be an abberation amongst many tests. Overall the 6800 does seem like better bang for the buck. If I can unlock pipelines that would make me even happier. I can swing the $250...

    Upgrading a 9500Pro, looking at the 6600GT

    Is the BFG 6800OC a regular 6800? its cheaper than the others. And more importantly lifetime warrantee. If its the same as a plain ole 6800 that looks like the best bang for my buck.

    Upgrading a 9500Pro, looking at the 6600GT

    I want games like: DeusEx2, Doom3, HL2, VampireTMR, Farcry etc. to run nicely at high detail at ~1280. I basically want the games to look like they were meant to look and still be smooth. I can barely play these games at 1024 on my 9500Pro, with no AA.

    Upgrading a 9500Pro, looking at the 6600GT

    Ah lots of responses. Everyone at HardOCP's forums seems to say go with the 6600 also. I was leaning towards that because im not cheap ^^ "why not get your bro a ti4200?" If i spent 50$ on a vid card for him, i could just spend $250 for me instead. I am not saving up, I just dont think its...
