    Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro Fan

    I am a big fan of Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro HSF. So I bought a Freezer Pro and a a 64 Freezer Pro. I was debating if I should stay with AMD or Intel. I had really good experience with AMD Athlon 64 series. Well that was almost a year ago, and since that time I was strictly running Intel...

    DDR2 with VDimm max of 2.1

    I have an Asus P5B-E version 1.01 G which has a max VDimm of 2.1 V. I saw some hardware mod which might help increase the VDimm to 2.4V but after looking real close at the board it's not an option for me. I am sure I will screw it up. I have some generic DDR2 667 at this time which can run at...

    A simple question about Arctic Cooling Freezer 7...

    My Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 fan is being flagged by Asus Probe 2 as being too slow, i.e. RPM about 378. The HSF is working great however. My Core 2 Duo E6300 is about 30-34 degrees C. The 4 pin fan connector is connected to the MB, an Asus P5B-E. My question simply is your fan running...

    Need 4 pin CPU cable extension

    I have an Antec P180B with an Asus MB P5B-E. The Coolermaster 600W PS can barely reach the 4 pin on the MB. This is a common problem with the P180. I am thinking of getting a new video card which probably necessitates this cable extension since the existing cable can barely reach the 4 pin on...

    AMD stock dropping like a rock!!!

    I know this is down day for the market. But the market is arguably very efficient. AMD stock is down (2.67% as I typed) and Intel is up (.56%). Technology stocks as whole has another down day but Intel strategy of lifting the NDA is working even if we cannot buy anything yet. ;)
