    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 found some ati cheap celeron laptops with ati xpress 200m chipset, which supports 533mhz ddr2, but only 400mhz ddr. So does this mean that it supports a pin mod on a 400mhz dothan to 533mhz?

    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...

    *HOT* Arctic silencers on clearance at SVC.com $9.99 each

    Will ATI Silencer 2 fit an AIW 9600 Pro? It says it will fit 9600 series (non pro, pro, xt) but nothing about AIW. On newegg, there's one reviewer who said it doesn't fit the AIW 9600 SE.

    Hitachi 250GB IDE HD $92.49 w/free ship

    I'd say Hitachi's are very reliable. I accidentally zapped my 160gb deskstar and it still works. It was just wiped clean (most of which I was able to recover), but the drive still works.

    Men's Saucony Jazz AC (in sizes 7.5 and 10) for $25 shipped

    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

    XBOX 360 ONSALE at Barnes and Noble

    By "worth" I mean the actual cost of making it is more than what they are selling it for (cuz of the graphics hardware, which is evident in the debut prices of the newest generation of gamer video cards) and the way they make money is through games, not the console itself.

    XBOX 360 ONSALE at Barnes and Noble

    well, isn't the XBOX 360 supposed to be worth like $600? but they figured that they can't sell it for that much so they take a hit and make all their money through games.

    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?

    2005FPW hot enough? (Dell Small Business)

    Are the 2005fpw's in any way inferior to the 2001fp's? I thought that a widescreen monitor would be desireable and hence worth more. But the 2005fpw's were about $70 cheaper after discount.

    160gig hd only 126gig recognized

    when i installed xp, the ntfs system would only format 137gigs, hence i was losing out on 23gb. so i decided to partition the hd into 2 partitions, 26 and 126 (i'm still losing out on 8gigs), one for system and program files and one for all my media. it worked, only that the partition for my...

    I need a program that tells me what mem settings and what speed my mem is at

    speaking of memory, i've got a question about cpu-z. which tab actually gives the speed of the ram? i set my ram (default of 2.5-3-3-8) to 2-5-5-8. but cpu-z showed 2-5-5-8 under speed and 2.5-3-3-8 under mem.

    footlocker 30 percent ff

    well, i wanted to take advantage of the online discounted offers. but with the tax and shipping added, it ended up being only $0.41 less than dick's or sports authority. and that doesn't take into account of their 10% off first time customers. so i'd rather just wait for sports authority's 25%...

    footlocker 30 percent ff

    pretty good deal for in-store. my grudge is that they charge tax and shipping so that the price ends up being the same as sportsauthority or dick's. some sale: it just knocked off the tax and shipping

    Make your own ice cream for cheap!

    hmm... doesn't seem to bad of an idea, though with all the mess and cleanup involved, i'd think that putting ingredients in a can surrounded by ice in another can and giving the can to a kid to play with for 15min seems like less work. But personally, i like making my ice cream with liquid...

    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...

    aiw 9600 pro tv noise

    I don't think it's static/snow. How can I ascertain whether or not it's static/snow? It's really fuzzy with good audio for some channels and unwatchable with all the colors blended together and barely discernable audio for other channels. I've got direct cable and a plenty powerful psu. I...

    aiw 9600 pro tv noise

    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?

    asus southbridge overheating?

    But with the a7n8x-x, the southbrdige is somewhat covered by the video card and ram slots. I also have 2 case fans along with the 2 fans on my ps running in a mid tower, so there's plenty of ventilation. I searched for heatsinks for southbridges and got nothing. Anyone know where I can get such...

    Barton Temperature question

    Yes, Barton's are said to be able to handle up to 85C, but that doesn't mean you should let it get anywhere near that high. The general rule is to keep the temp under 50C, which is right about where my 3200 runs at with an arctic cooler 2tc (really quiet).

    asus southbridge overheating?

    I've got an asus a7n8x-x and the southbridge is unbearably hot to the touch. Is this typical of all motherboard southbridges? Is it possible to remedy this with a heatsink of some sort?

    If going for a 333 Fsb CPU, will memory go at pc2700 speeds ?

    the ram and cpu speeds are set in bios. and i have a 3200 barton with corsair pc3200 ram (both r meant for 200mhz fsb). however, i tweak my fsb ratio a lot depending on what i'm doing - higher for gaming and lower for long-term downloads; and there's little difference in performance. so by all...

    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...
