    nVidia 162.18 and Viewsonic VA1912wb

    I had the same issues with the new drivers The monitor wouldn't display my actual native resolution of 1440x900 and I had to scroll sideways as the whole display didn't fit the monitor width I rolled back and the problem isn't there. Hopefully they fix it up.

    Got an X-Fi XtremeMusic, now need speakers

    You generally get what you pay for, so try to get a recognized, tried and tested brand. You'd rather get a GOOD 2.1 setup than a CHEAP 5.1. and vice versa. Try not to take any shortcuts when it comes to your audio setup as they usually are investments that last a long while. Make a good choice...

    Any problems with using onboard for sound recording (Mic) and Xi-fi for listening?

    Just a simple, slight, inkling, smidge of a concern. P5B Deluxe came with a soundMax superbeam mic and it works best through the onboard ports, whereas I use the Xifi for listening (Headphones plugged in) Are there any issues with such a setup? (I allready set my recording device to soundmax...

    Is 43-45*C idle normal for a E6400 Core 2 Duo?

    That's what I'm getting. Stock heatsink seems to be flat and properly placed. No overclocks. Running a AMD64 3200 on this rig that I'm posting from, which idles around 30-32*C, which is what i'm used to. Just double checking consensus to see if it's my particular conroe or if it's just the...

    Verizon FIOS.

    We have it here in Annapolis, Maryland (Well, town right next to it - suburbs). It's funny because right after we moved here Fios became available in this area. I think its a good service. We have the 15/2 $44.00 package. No connection drops. Uber speeds, though a bit overkill if you only have...

    Can any 7800GS (Standard, CO) easily reach superclock speeds?

    I planned on getting the eVGA 7800GS CO Superclock from Newegg but they ran out of stock. Should I wait until they get them back in stock or just go ahead and get the XFX 7800GS? Are the different clockspeeds on these cards just preclocked for convenience and novice consideration? Say, if I...
