    Sennheiser HD201 Headphones -- $17.94 w/ free shipping over $25

    Amazon itself, has them back in stock at $17.94 so you can get free shipping on orders of over $25. Best set you can get if you don't have much to spend. Link (fixed) My suggestion is, if you are a college student like me, is the brita slim pitcher for $7.99 because I tend to forget to drink...

    Wanna swap my dothan into a new 915 chipset for pin modding

    I've got a laptop with a 855 chipset and a 400mhz fsb dothan. I want to try out the pin mod I've read about with the dothan to up the fsb to 533mhz; but I need a laptop with 915 chipset. I'd like to buy a new, cheap laptop with 915 and a celeron m. Then, I can swap the 2 cpu's. However, from...

    For less than $50, you won't find a more comfortable pair of casual running shoes. Best of all, no taxes or shipping. Too bad they only have them in sizes 7.5 and 10. LINK

    cpu-z memory and speed tabs

    I set my ram at 2-3-3-5 and cpu-z 1.3 shows that under the memory tab. However, no matter what I set my ram to, the spd (speed, i assume) shows the default settings for the ram (2.5-3-3-8). What's the difference? Which speed is my ram operating at?

    ASUS A7N8X-X FSB issues

    After I upgraded from BIOS version 1009 to 1010, I realized that I couldn't change the fsb by 1mhz increments anymore. Rather, there are only 4 options: 100, 133, 166 and 200mhz. I couldn't find anything else in BIOS that could possibly affect this. And all that the ASUS service guys could tell...

    I can't seem to get rid of all the noise I'm getting while watching tv on my aiw 9600 pro. I'm almost positive that I have all the settings right and the signal is plenty strong. Anyone know what the cause may be or how I can determine the cause?

    athlon xp 2500/2600 barton?

    I'm going to be building a couple of computers for my cousins and am looking into the xp barton family as they aren't serious gamers. In order to save money, I think I'll overclock a couple of 2500/2600 rather than buying 3200's. I read up on people achieving 3400 speeds with the 2500 and only...
