When the Windows 2000 Professional logo comes up the loading bar starts off halfway finished and then takes 20-25 seconds before it starts loading windows. For some reason there is absolutely no hard drive activity during this time. Otherwise once I get into windows everything works as it...
Is the 3500+ worth the extra $70 or will the 3200+ be fast enough for my needs? I am a pretty hardcore gamer and have been using a Athlon XP 2400+ with a BFG 6800 GT for some time now. Athlon XP just doesn't get the job done anymore and have been looking forward to an upgrade for some time now.
I am in the market for a new mb and cpu and am having some trouble picking an online retailer. I plan on getting a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum mb and a AMD 64 3200+ Winchester core cpu. Despite the issues winchester cores seem to have with the Neo2 board I want to give it a try. However I am...
The future machine I have in mind:

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
1 gig of Mushkin PC3200 RAM 2-2-2
BFG 6800 GT OC
80 gig IDE WesternDigital hd
120 gig IDE WD hd
I am curious to see if anyone on anandtech has a similar setup and knows of any potential...
There is a little problem with my site, the line spacing after a form is incorrect when initially loading the page, but then after refreshing the page the spacing seems to correct itself. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? It has been nagging me all day...
Some of my system specs:
Athlon XP 2400+
1 gig ram PC3200
Antec TruePower 430watt
Geforce 4 Ti4600 128mg
How much of an impact would a 6800 GT be on my system? I can play Doom 3 moderately well at medium quality(1024x768 and i get 20-25fps) but I really want to be able to run the game...
I can find the eVGA 6800 GT online for about $400 give or take a couple bucks. I continue to look at multiple benchmarks and see that the BFG 6800 GT peforms better at stock settings but I think that I could solve this easily by overclocking the eVGA a little. I have heard the the new cooling...
I am using an Antec TruePower 430 and every time I run Asus probe it reports that my 3.3v is out of threshold with a reading of ~2.9. Recently I have been having periodic lockups (10-20 seconds, sometimes longer) when playing any video game and am interested to know if my power supply needs to...
At the moment I cannot find a single BFG card available at a reasonable price on the web and I am starting to get a little impatient. While I think the 6800 GT might be a better performer than the X800 Pro, this deal
came up and I am debating whether or not I should wait for availablity of the...
I am interested in upgrading my current video card (Geforce 4 Ti 4600) to a nice new BFG 6800 GT. My problem is that when I overclocked my Ti 4600, I ended up having some pretty nasty results in Doom 3 and since I know that the BFG is overclocked I was wondering if any BFG owners have...
