    Bought new 2408WFP on 7/10, still A00

    I needed a new monitor right away so I didn't have time to wait for the A01. I pulled the trigger on 7/10 and the monitor was delivered on 7/14 from the NV warehouse. The back on the monitor reads "July 2008" but its still revision A00.

    Is windows vista color management broken? Custom color profile not changing colors

    I just installed Vista on one of my new machines and I also copied over a color profile I generated in XP for the same display I'm using. I figured this profile should be fine since it was done over DVI to an LCD. After setting the profile as the default for the display in Vista's new color...

    8800GT stock HSF memory clearence? OK to use thinner thermal paste?

    I'm thinking about "reconditioning" my 8800GT heatsink with fresh AS5 on the GPU and Ceramique on the memory but I'm worried that after removing the original thick paste, there will be too much space between the heatsink and the memory for a thin paste like ceramique. Has anyone tried this already?

    Shuttles Integrated Cooling Engine (ICE) shroud performance?

    So the newer Shuttles have the ICE system which basically makes an isolated airflow channel for cooling the CPU. I've noticed the shroud sometimes conflicts with bigger video cards and their respective heatsink setups. Can anyone tell me how much of a temp difference the shroud makes?

    Do you like the Doom3 flashlight/weapon limitation

    Its pretty well known by now from all the advanced copies of D3 that you cannot use your gun and the flashlight at the same time. From reading others comments on gameplay and seeing a few videos, it seem that the thing to do is: -Use flashlight to find monsters in dark areas -Switch to...

    I've heard that the normal HS bracket doesn't work if you remove the IHS(heat spreader) from an A64. What alternatives are there for this scenario? The Alpha 8150 seems like one that would work. The spring tensions would be reduced but that can be fixed by adding washers to increase tension...

    Mobile 2400+ OC woes, what went wrong?

    I just got a 2400+ mobile barton yesterday and my troubles keep getting worse. I popped it in and fired it up at the normal speed. Ran about 30min of prime95 and all seems good.
