    e6400 temp question

    I know its been posted here a lot, but I got a few questions about my temps. I have the stock heatsink on there right now, but I have an Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 Pro on order. TAT reports my cores at around 67-69c each under full load at stock speeds. This seems very high even for that crap...

    Motherboard only boots first time

    OK... I'm trying to troubleshoot my brothers computer here. The motherboard is a EPOX EP-9NDA3J with an Athlon 64 3000+. On powering up the board with only bare components (CPU, memory, video card) the board posts fine. After shutting the power off and trying to power it up again, the board...

    Know if a SATA dual layer is coming out?

    Does anyone know if a SATA dual layer burner is coming out? I want to wait to get a dual layer for when one comes to SATA. That way I won't have to trash it anytime soon. I know Plextor would probaly be first, but if anyone knows if a Lite-On is coming would be great!

    Will these be able to run...

    What do you guys think... will any of the current generation cards be able to run Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 with all the eye candy turned on? What I'm hoping is that these cards will be able to run these games at around 1024x768 with all the candy on (don't really care if I can't get AA or AF) so...

    Question on failing memory sticks...

    Most memory sticks these days say you can write to them around 1 million times, but what happens when they start to fail? Will you just not be able to write to it (meaning I can still retrieve my data) or is the whole thing dead and my data would be gone?

    Any explanation as to why...

    ...the 6800 Ultra doesn't just use an external power supply ala Voodoo 5 6000. I know it would add to the cost, but it just seems it would simplify the whole power supply issue. And yes I know that most good quality power supplies should be able to handle this no problem, but as for a future...

    Can you add SATA connectors to a power supply?

    I know there are adapters out there, but they look like shit. On the adapters, each voltage line ties to some pin on the SATA power connector. But on the SATA connectors I have seen that come with power supplies, there looks to be another line, an orange line if I remember correctly. So...

    Simple USB 2.0 question...

    Wondering if mixing USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices on the same bus will make the 2.0 devices use 1.1 speeds, or is each device independent? Thanks,

    Anyone tried a modular power supply?

    Anyone on here tried on of those modular power supplies? I'm trying to clean my case up a bit and my power supply is dying a slow death. Specifically I want to know how well they stand up to stress compared to some of the best companies, and how hard is it to find extra cables in case I need...
