    PSU Fan & P4 478 HS

    Thank you VinDSL, actually at first I'd though about the Scythe Ninja (or similar) but I'm not sure if this old system worth it..., maybe if I'll find a used one. As for the PSU, there are some old threads on the web, telling to bypass the original PSU fan conntion to avoid it's Temp...

    PSU Fan & P4 478 HS

    All Three fans are noisy in a way it is getting too annoying (some are loud as a power saw when on full RPM) I think you're, I'll better off go for the low cost - in that case it means AC: Can the 'AC 8 PWM' be applied as a PSU exhaust? http://www.arctic-cooling.com/fans2.php?idx=109...

    So actually there are two issues here: 1. PSU fan I ?eed to replace my Antec true380 fans (92mm and 80mm), they are too noisy and oiling does not help. Since silent is a factor for me, I had check the SPCR recommendation. The only fans on their list I can get my hands on is the Nexus, but...

    which of the following board would be the cost efficient

    Thanks Zeeon!! Intel board looks right, [it doesn't have Raid but no issue for me]. Will stock performance be the same? - DP965LT compared to the DS3 or the ASUS [Couldn't find any review on that] Also there's a DP965LTCK board looks the same yet something most be different here...

    which of the following board would be the cost efficient

    I'm planning to keep this rig the longer I can, that's the reason a Qude Core Ready board is important to me [and the reason I droped S3]. Long lasting board w/QC support and best stock setting performance [not plan to OC] would be the way to go for me [actually for my brother]. As for the...

    which of the following board would be the cost efficient

    Thanks, but I don't like the P-D for it is getting very hot. I notice that the Gigabyte S3 is made of a cheap Caps, therefore the DS3 would be better. Still which should take Asus P5B/-e, Abit AB9/PRO, Gigabyte DS3 The should support Q-core which for Abit it not so clear.

    which VC to buy for vista support only?

    so maybe the 965G is not a good Idea then, (the reason was to later buy a cheap DX10 to better a support of vista) What does the OB x3000 compared too? Is it on a par with 7300Le or GS?

    which VC to buy for vista support only?

    Does vista requires a DX10 card or is it DX9 card will run vista as good?

    which VC to buy for vista support only?

    I'm doing an upgrade for my brother (CPU, MB, RAM, VC). since there are no entering level DX10 card yet, I do not know which card should I pick for running vista - no gaming or OC- 7300LE/GS ???. Maybe I better go for the on-board solution for the meantime (like Asus P5B-VM)?

    X1950 Pro AGP is coming!

    So how does Diamond 512MB card differ from the Sapphire, is there a reason to choose DMM over Sapphire? (I'm guessing, preformance would be similar, and silence wise, it looks like they use the same cooling system...)

    Does Abit Ic7 work in DC with 2x256 + 2x512?

    So I got the new reply but with nothing new. Maybe I'll just add 2*512 to the rig, if it won't work as expected then I'll change to 4*512.

    Does Abit Ic7 work in DC with 2x256 + 2x512?

    Must say Abit reply was fast :thumbsup: From what they tell 2x256+2x512 will work as DC, but they do not recommend it. So it's not so clear to me what the performance difference would be between 1G and 1.5G (i.e will we feel the boost benefit of the extra 512M DC or that the performance will...

    Does Abit Ic7 work in DC with 2x256 + 2x512?

    well we are in the same boat ;) I remember few things form past readings, That config. may work but be effective as 1G.. Moreover, theres something to do with different formation of a 256 RAM vs 512 ( single sided vs double sided) that can cause stability issues with or w/o DC. Is there...

    X1950Pro AGP

    apoppin, I have heard that theres some problems with 1.5 gig if you run WinXP, maybe something to do with 128 multiplication. In addition, since you have four dice to make a gig, your DC (which more noticeable on Intel CPU) should work fine but not on 1.5G configuration. That makes your UG...

    Recommended DX9 AGP Cards?

    Why ppl alway say the 7800GS is the best AGP card, while reviews shows same performance to the 7600GT. However, how the x850xt ( or ulocked X850pro ) is compared to 7600GT / 7800GS , that I do not know.. And there's always the option to wait for the coming X1950PRO, which sould be...

    Upgrade advice

    Isn't that means loosing Dual Channel? (On Intel rigs it supposed to be more significant - so I heard) I'll have more RAM along w/my old KHX, but those are 256 vs 512 and the chips are different as well (Winbond BH-5 vs Samsung)

    Did a gpu bottleneck get lifted slightly, or is this typical for an overclocked cpu?

    Which Memory upgrade do you recommand

    Running 2*256MB HiperX kit on the rig Below (replacing VC as well)' I'm not sure what wil be the best cost-efficient solution. I can add another 2*256 or 2*512, but not sure how it will effect dual channel, or sould I sell current dimms and go with a giga kit or a 2GB kit? t73 :)
