hey all, have been out of the scene for a while....once i got my pc workin from last summer and finished upgrading it, i was quite happy with the results...but i think i'm ready for an upgrade now...i have dual xfx 6600 gt's in sli, running overclocked at 550/1100, but i feel like i could get...

hi all... i came back to my computer a lil over an hour ago, after going to the mall, and apparently the power went out in my house due to a thunderstorm that occurred while i was out. my computer was off, so i turned it back on (it had been turned off because of the power outage in my house...

hey everyone, i'm puttin up my 1 GB OCZ Platinum Rev. 2's up for sale, because I made the upgrade to GSKILL 2GB with some birthday money I had....but now i need to sell these to make some money back since books for this semester were so expensive. These ran great in my system for a couple...

Hey all, haven't posted in a while as I've been pretty happy with my rig set up for the most part....been caught up in playing LOTS of WoW, but I've noticed that my rig seems to be havin some problems going to the desktop when using ALT+Tab, which is sometimes necessary when playin WoW. So I was...

hey everyone, i just recieved my new pair of Sennheiser HD515's today, and i promptly busted them out of the box to see how they fit and how the audio sounded. except when i went to plug them into the wired remote control from my I-Trigue 2.1 3300 speakers, and all i get is audio in the left...

hey everyone, now that i have all my power supply problems worked out (bought a NeoHE 550w that didn't work with my Asus motherboard, so I bought a Thermaltake Purepower 500w) I can finally put this up for sale. I bought it back in May when I first put my rig together, and it worked flawlessly...

hey all, i was just wondering if it's safe to use the controller that came with my Thermaltake W0057 PurePower ATX 12V 2.0 500W, because i got everything up and running, but the power supply is pretty loud compared to my other ones...so i wanna try using the fan controller that came with it to...

well i thought all was good with my NeoHE550, but now i seem to be getting random shutdowns. I think I had about 3-4 total yesterday, and I'm not sure if it's PSU related or not. I think the first happened just randomly while I was using the computer during the day. Then, last night, I decided...

hey all, just installed my new NEOHE into my rig, and after about an hour of wiring (took me forever to figure out how to get everything that needed a molex a connector) i finally boot it up. boots up fine using the overclock that i had set, so i decide to set it back to stock, just to make sure...

well after trying to isolate the instability issues i was having with my overclocks, i think i've come to the conclusion that my psu isn't giving me enough power to handle everything overclocked. I've got my venice at 2.68ghz with 1.6v, my ocz rev 2's at 243mhz at 2.9v and i had my 2 6600gt's at...

after days of testing out the max points for my 3200 venice and new ocz plat rev 2's, i think i finally found a pretty good spot for my overclock...however, i seem to be getting problems when running 3dmark05. i have my cpu overclocked to 2.68ghz at 1.6v, my memory at 243mhz 2-4-3-7 1T timings...

hey all, i'm puttin my gig of Corsair XMS 3200C2PT's up for sale. I bought these back in May when I first put my system together on Monarch Computer for $127 (they're at $126 right now w/ free shipping). I was able to overclock these to about 219mhz each Prime and Memtest stable at decent...

hey all, i finally got around to installing my new OCZ Platinum Rev 2's (2x512MB) that i received last week into my system tonight, and after resetting everything to stock timings in the bios, i found that the memory was running at 2.5-3-3-5 timings...these things are rated 2-2-2-5 at stock. i...

hi all, lately i've been having some issues with windows freezing on me randomly. sometimes it would run fine for a day or so, no locking up, other days it would freeze, so i would restart, and then i would come back a couple hours later and have to restart again. so this weekend i busted out...

i'm a little confused, as i just tried running rthdribl v1.2 to test my temps before i installed a zalman vf700cu on my second xfx 6600gt in my sli config, but once i start running it, only my first videocard rises in temperature (about 8-9C rise); the second one just seems to be idling because...

i've been reading a lot lately about all the different memory that people have been getting kickass overclocks from, and it's made me think hard about my memory. i bought a gig of corsair xms c2pt's, which aren't known to be good OC'ers at all from what i've read. when i had my winchester, i...

hey all, lately i've noticed that my ModStream 450W seems to be the noisest thing in my rig. the fan whirring around is clearly audible, and is getting on my nerves a bit. while i've been able to control my case fans with my fan controller (bought the panaflo high speeds, which turned out to be...

hey all...i just installed my second XFX 6600GT for my rig to complete SLI...i just ran 3dmark05 and got a score of 6194 at stock speeds for both on forceware 71.89. my temps as of right now are 43-44C on CPU 1 (which has a zalman 700 on it) and 51-52 on GPU2 (which has stock cooling which i...

I'm puttin my 3200+ Winchester Socket 939 up for sale now that I have my 3200+ Venice up and running. I bought this cpu in May for $195 on MonarchComputers and it has been running in my system up until last week. I was able to OC it up to 2.5GHz Prime Stable on air, but it never stayed OCed for...

ended up buying a Hauppauge PVR-150 for a good deal. thanks anyway

hey all, i'm lookin to invest in a good tv tuner so I can record some of my favorite shows so I can watch them again whenever I want. I've done a little research and the Hauppauge looks like a good candidate. So I'm lookin to buy the PVR-150 (non-MCE version as I only run XP) from anyone that...

Hey all, I've got a bunch of stuff to sell as I could use some extra cash, or trade if you have what I'm looking for. I have a Gameboy Advance SP, games, accessories and also some extra fans I have laying around. Prices are relatively firm, but I'm always willing to work out a deal as I want to...

hey everyone...i'm thinkin of investing in a fan controller, as the new panaflos i bought (high speed) are just a little louder than i had wanted (altho they provide the cooling i want). so i've been looking around for something that will be able to control a few of the fans in my case (about 4...

No takers for the card

well i just installed a new XP-90 + Thermaltake Silentcat fan onto my A64 3200+ Winchester, and so far I haven't seen any real improvement. I haven't even overclocked my CPU yet, and on load it's reaching temps around 40C, and idles at around 33-34C, which was the same as stock temps for idle...

hey everyone...woke up this morning and turned on my computer, and now i can't get past the windows xp loading screen. last night i decided to play around with my memory's timings a bit and run sandra, and when i was finished, with some minor changes, i decided to just leave the comp off for the...
