    How fast is P4 3.4Ghz than AMD Athlon 3500+

    I have both AMD and Intel. Unless your running benchmarks, you really don't notice a big difference between the two, not sure why everyone has to get into a pissing contest when It comes to CPU's. I guess I used to think what ever I had at the time was the best too, but that was when I was a...

    Suggestions for a good Intel P4 heatsink?

    Any reason why one would pull the heatsink off often enough to worry about how hard it is to install? If I find a heatsink that works, I leave it on untill my cpu dies.

    Viewsonic VP171B now available in 8ms model?

    I have this LCD and it works great, none of the problems a few have said on this forum. It does sound like another problem, like the Video card, memory, somthing bogging your system down. You need a decent system to run this monitor at its native resolution which is 1280x1024.You guys are...
