    1600mhz memory in this board?

    I just picked up this MB (GIGABYTE GA-P55M-UD2) for a new build and ordered 4GB of 1333mhz memory with it. But I just ran across a good deal on 6GB of 1600mhz memory (3x2) and wanted to know if I should/can install that instead?

    To AMD or Not AMD that is the question

    I went with a AMD AM2 4400+ X2 and overclocked to 2.8Ghz. I am plenty happy with the decision and thrilled that the AM3 processors will be backwards compatible.

    Zeitgeist the Movie

    This documentary is quite an eye-opener. Although there are a few spots where truths are stretched a bit and that really stinks because it makes people want to discredit the rest of the film. I was gripped through the entire show. I enjoyed the first section about religion. I knew previously...

    Huge slow downs in Diablo 2 ...

    The 800x600 limit has always sucked.. i love Diablo but the graphics were dated the minute it was released. Still a fun game to play though. I too have problems with frame rates when a lot of monsters are on screen. If you like Diablo and want more eye candy check out Titan Quest. It is...

    AMD Cool-n-Quiet how it works?

    It works at all times. I rarely see the full 2.4Ghz when using cool-n-quiet. At idle I see ~1Ghz and under load it fluctuates between 1.8 and 2.1. Not sure what it would take to bring it to full speed.

    Cases similar to Coolermaster Stacker?

    I guess I didn't make my point clear. I need a case that can hold alot of HDDs. The Coolermaster has 12 external 5.25" bays that can hold 4 drive cages for a maximum of 20 hard drives.

    I am building a file server and need a large cheap case. Looks are not a big concern since it will be stuffed in a closet. I like the Coolermaster Stacker case but would like one for much less than that costs. Any ideas?

    Quake2 rocks!!

    I have yet to find a game with the adrenaline rush of Q3. After playing that for years all other FPS seem too slow paced. Too bad i can't find any good instagib servers anymore. The only one that seems active doesn't let me connect. :( I am trying to get into Q4 multi, but it feels really...

    WOW! 8800 Ultra is actually worth getting now?

    That is still not worth it. You will not gain much over a GTX (or even a GTS) as far as real world performance, and for DX10 its looking like you will need a next gen card anyways. All the benchmarks ive seen suggest DX10 games are barely playable with the top end cards even without AA.

    Newegg IPO? What happened to it?

    A few years ago Newegg was planning on entering the stock market in order to expand worldwide. Nothing ever came of it. Does anyone know if Newegg is still planning on such a venture or if they have canned the idea of global expansion?
