If I buy a 1600 rpm fan to put on my sink will the BIOS control the speed so it's not always running at 1600 rpm? I'd like to have the extra breeze when need but I'd like it to be quiet otherwise.
Thanks.
I'm a first time OC'er. I have my system up to 3.8ghz. I ran the burn in app in Sisoft and the computer crashed once but when I reran it with all other applications closed it ran continuously for 1/2 hour. I'm wondering if I have the best settings. Here's what I have:
i7 920
Noctua...
I'm pretty new to OC'ing and I don't want to burn up my really nice new processor. :-)
Here's what I'm getting:
-i7 920
-Asus P6T
-3GB Corsair Dominator
-Noctua NH-U12P SE 1366 Ultra
Once it's built I'll follow some of the great advice here on how to OC it. However, I don't know...
Because my sound card and my video card both take up two slots each, I can't fit my video card in the first PCIe x16_1 slot. There's a second slot but the manual says, "In single VGA card mode, use the first PCIe 2.0 x16_1 slot for a PCI Express x16 card to get better performance."
How will...
I need to archive some data and I was thinking of putting it on external drives because it's too much for DVD's and I don't want to use tape.
So, if I put the data on an external drive and put it on a shelf, how long will it last?
Thanks for any thoughts.
I used to connect to my work VPN just fine in XP. In Vista I can connect but then I can't see any of my resources.
Anyone encounter a similar issue or know of a fix?
Thanks.
I'm getting ready to replace my CRT. I have a glossy screen on my laptop and I love it. I've heard of opticlear and x-brite but I'm having a hard time finding a larger screen. I'd like at least a 20" screen, preferably 21" or 22".
Does anyone know a brand/model I should be looking for...
We're trying to get a couple copies of Vista at work through CDW. The rep says he can sell us the license but the media won't be available until January when it's officially released!! :disgust:
Anyone know where I can get a legit copy of the media?
Thanks!
I have mine sitting on the carpeted floor. It's filled with dust/dirt/dog hair. I'm thinking about building a little stand for it but I'm wondering what other people do. Thanks!
Need to replace my current drive. What is a good burner to buy? I saw great reviews for this NEC drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827152058
It's 16x. I was wondering if there were any 18x drives as highly recommended. It doesn't look like the NEC 18x drive got...
I'd like to install Vista clean on my system. I'm going to purchase the Business upgrade edition. What will I need during the install? Do I need to have a key from XP (don't know if I have one) or do I just stick in the disc?
Thanks.
I?m building a new rib around an e6400 and P5B. I only want to spend about $200 for 2GB of memory. I?d like to do some mild overclocking.
Which of these would be best for me? I appreciate any help.
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 675 (PC2 5400)...
I'm getting an e6400 and P5b.
I'm only interested in some mild overclocking (air).
What's my best choice for 667 memory for about $100 for a 1GB stick? The reason I'm only getting one and I can only spend $100 is because it's a gift from a relative so I'm sort of limited. Another...
I no longer do any gaming. My rig is mostly for surfing and video encoding. I'm planning on Vista.
What's a good reasonably priced card that will fit my needs? And still be fast as heII. LOL.
Thanks.
I don't do any gaming any more but I do a lot of video encoding.
What's my best choice for mobos and types of memory? I've been out of the loop for a while so don't know much about current memory or mobos. I may try to overclock.
All suggestions are appreciated
