    Quietest Clear 120mm fan

    I allready know the quietest 120mm fan out there is the noiseblocker, but im looking for a clear 120mm case fan. At least just the blades, since its a front intake and it will be lighted. I dont care if it comes with leds, if it comes with red ones, great if it comes any other color, ill replace...

    Passive cooling solution for a P3 733?

    a modded slk900. For pure security reasosns I would put an 80mm noiseblocker S1. At only 11Dba, its the quietest 80mm fan out there to push 22cfm. Or get the variable version which can go down to 9dba to push 13cfm. Once you do that, you can get rid of all your other case fans, and I would also...

    Last minute reality check before I whip out the credit card

    Sorry, didnt know you were rich, hehe. I never remember paying for an actual copy of Windows. Recording one hour. Depends on what compression method you use. If youre gonna do allot of editing afterwards, then youll need about 20 gigs. If youre just cutting and joining, you can get away with...

    Last minute reality check before I whip out the credit card

    The athlon has shown time and time again that it is a faster cpu for video editing comparing it to a same speed P4. I just encoded a divx movie in one hour, it took one and a half on my friends P4 2.6 with a gig of ram, and I have 512. The nForce audio chipset is the ONLY one out there that can...

    Last minute reality check before I whip out the credit card

    Reality check: P4 = waste of money Reality check: An athlon XP will be cheaper, faster, and will get you more chicks. Get the SN45G. Why? Cheaper for one. But more importantly, the nforce2 is the only solution to encode in 5.1 Dolby Digital. You can then feed that DD5.1 Signal to a HiFi amp...

    RDRAM Question

    Make sure theyre the same latency!!!!!!! Very important. Read the label on the ones he has! it should be either 40 or 45 ns or something like that. Matching the speed is a nobrainer, but people dont look at the latency too often. RDRAM is dead though and im glad.

    Does anybody know of a processor database purely for reerence? One that lists stuff like different bus widths, fsb, L caches, die size, socket type, etc... If not, I guess Ill have to start my own :P

    Quiet Heatsink for Athlon 2000XP

    Last time i heard a heatsink make noise was when i ran my finger nail through its fins, it makes a cool ring. If you want a quiet fan, get a noiseblocker. They make less noise then panaflos and push more cfms. The thing is, if youre in the us, i dunno where you could get one. For all you...
