    How many volts is safe for my Sapphire 9800 Pro?

    I've got the core at 411 from 378, and the memory at 343 from 338. AGP DDQ Voltage is at 1.5v... even though I'm not so sure on what that means. The computer locks up at 413Mhz, but I'm sure it's quite cool since I have a Maze4 waterblock over it, and my OC'ed CPU idles at 25C which is on the...

    Can my P4P800SE handle DDR600?

    According to SiSoft Sandra, my memory is my limiting factor, is it because I'm running in single channel or do I need to upgrade? I was thinking of putting in either two sticks of either Patriot eXtreme PC4000 or PC4800, the price difference is only about $20 per stick. And should I turn...

    Where can I find "dust filtering foam" ?

    I built a PC for my freind, and it had this black porous foam on every intake, I'd like to get some of this for my rig. Since it sucks 220CFM of dust laden air, I'm sure I don't have much time until all of my compenents are covered in a nasty film.
