    Do I really need to buy driver cleaner?

    I can't believe I didn't try googling "driver cleaner download", found plenty of reputable sites with it. Is there a preferred version? I see 1.5 and 3.3

    Do I really need to buy driver cleaner?

    I'm considering upgrading my x1950pro 256mb I basically just bought to an 8800gts 320mb so I can play stalker at full detail. I was trying to wait until ATI came out with their new chips but they are taking forever and $250 for a 8800gts is pretty hard to pass up. Do I need to get driver...

    Klipsch Promedia 2.1

    Very happy with mine. I have heard the logitech z-2300 set is just as good or better but I couldn't find one to try out before I bought so I went with the promedia's.

    Yes. If your system is beefy enough to handle it.

    3D Performance with S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

    Getting a little bit off topic aren't we guys? Question for the OP, do you have full dynamic lighting on with those settings? I get about 23fps average running around the bar area with my setup. Inside the bar it slows to a painful 15fps. This is with the game patched to 1.0001 version...

    Enough room in the P180b for a 8800gts?

    Yeah, it should fit with the hard drive cage removed. I don't have a GTS but I've got a p180b and there is a ton of video card room with that cage removed.

    What memory shoudl I buy for E4300 w/ 965P?

    Good choice, that memory is working well with my OCed e4300. Although I'm running a 975 board instead of 965.

    E4300 Overclocks?

    If that's 37C at load then it's gotta be off. 51C sounds more like it. What mobo and cpu batch code? I have the exact same rig setup except a neo550 PSU, although I would have rather had the corsair. Just FYI I'm running that ram at 370 fsb, 4-4-4-12 1.92v, it's over 10 hours memtest stable.

    Best BIOS for BadAxe2 (D975XBX2) and Moderate OC'ing

    I guess you meant this is your first post in the motherboard sub-forum. Updated to the newest bios(2663) today and besides having to enter maintenance mode after flashing to correct my clock speeds everything is working just fine.

    Best BIOS for BadAxe2 (D975XBX2) and Moderate OC'ing

    This appears to be your 225th post. Got the amnesia? Anyway I'm using the bx2 board with an e4300, and I'm overclocked to 3.33ghz using the 2618 bios with no problems. I've just been updating whenever I feel like it and haven't had any problems with any of them 2333+. This is a good...

    Antec Neopower

    I've got a neoHE 550w I've been using for about a month now. I like it, very solid voltage levels(cpu voltage only goes down .012 when under load), all the cables are sleeved, and its quiet. I don't think the fan hardly ever turns on since I'm using a p180 case that has a seperate PSU chamber...

    What is up with Tigerdirect???

    Bought two sennheiser 150 headsets from tigerdirect not too long ago and one of the plastic packages had been cracked like it had been opened before. Also had a strange sticker on it that the other uncracked one didn't have. Probably the last time I order from them.

    E4300 Overclocks?

    Update on my progress. 370x9 1.4125v 1066 strap Tested stable for 2 hours in orthos, 367 was stable for 10 hours with the same settings. Temp's are starting to get up there, ~65c according to intel's desktop utility's at load. Thought the Tuniq would cool a little better than this...

    How do you confirm overclocking?

    start>right click my computer>properties If your using XP that is.

    Not sure what to do anymore with the temps.

    What program are you using to monitor temps? A 4c rise in temp at load seems way off, load temp should be much(20-30c) higher than idle.

    E4300 & DDR800

    E4300 has a multiplier of 9 btw. Just buy this and be happy. There are some pretty good reports of it doing upwards of DDR800 speeds.

    E4300 Overclocks?

    Well I got my tuniq put on, but I've got work tomorrow and I'm not gonna stay up all night testing. Initial impressions are not good, I'm hardly seeing any decrease in temps at load. This is with the fan spinning at 1100rpm and two exhaust fans directly above and to the left of the tower...

    How to format a boot drive?

    I'm getting ready to sell my old system but I need to wipe both the drive's and do a fresh install of windows XP. I figure I can just right click the non-boot drive in My Computer and format that one that way. I'm not sure how to go about wiping the boot drive though. Setup: Seagate 160gb, 1...

    Question about my new all SATA system

    Here's a short follow up to this question. The whole thing went down without a hitch, only thing that I stumbled on was getting my internet connection to work. Which the problem was I didn't install the onboard ethernet drivers included on the cd :cool:
