Is a Dell U2412M a good upgrade? Knowing I'm fine with the 2209WA gaming performance, is the U2412M going to be worse? Are photos going to look worse? The price is right on that monitor right now. And it's been 4 years and 4 months. Before that, I had a Dell FPW2005 for 4 years. It's time...
I have HP DL380 G6's for hosts, with 2 quad core (x5560's) cpu's, and 72gb ram. They are fiber connected to the san.
We've been using VMWare ESX for test servers but not in production as of yet.
The question I'm always asked is - "how many guests can you run on one of the hosts"
My...

I can't find the old bios flashing guides on here!? I need to downclock my BFG 285GTXOCE as it came with the incorrect (clocked too high) bios and I'm tired of running a utility to downclock!
Anyone have a good recent guide to use? I already have the software, and have edited my bios. I...

Anyone using a P5B-Plus ? I've searched around here and haven't seen a lot of people even mentioning it. Looking for a good quality board to last me another year or so. I use a single 8800GTS, Audigy 2, and plan to use an...
Sapphire X1900XTX, bought in April. Worked flawlessly in my system up until about two months ago. It suddenly wouldn't play any 3d games, and a day later wouldn't work at all.
Contacted Sapphire, started the RMA process. A little over five weeks later, they returned a card to me.
This...
Yes, I'm addicted to buying hardware.
I'm thinking of parting out my system and starting all over again. OR, simply buying an 8800GTS. Currently have an Asus A8N32-SLI, with X1900XTX, OPteron 165 running at 2.8ghz, 2gb Corsair C2 PC3200 ram, Antec P180 case, Antec TP II 550 PSU. (I would keep...
About to buy an 8800GTS, wondering if anyone is already driving one of these with an Antec TP-II 550 psu? (19amp per each 12v line (two total))
The only requirement I can find from Nvidia is 400watt powersupply. I have no intentions of ever adding a second 8800 GTS, just want to run one. (will...
I want to make everything smaller! I need my game box to look more like my Mac mini, while still using the ATI X1900XTX, Opteron 165, and 2gb PC3200 Cas2 Ram.
Currently i have a P180 case and an Antec TP2.0 550 PSU. I just want to keep the Video card, RAM, and CPU. If I had to, I could...
Anyone discovered a good performing KVM with DVI connections? Preferably with USB and AUDIO too? I just want to switch between a G4 Mac Mini and a AMD Nforce 4 Windows box... Don't seem to see any models out there that everyone agrees on. My screen size is 1680*1050. I'm also wondering if a...
I recently acquired two of these cpu's
Does anyone have a clue as to what would be a good motherboard choice for them, either single or dual? (something that's not too expensive, and SCSI isn't necessary).
Is there a certain chipset that these would require? I hate to see them just...
Edit: meant to type X1900XTX

according to the new "Interactive VGA Chart" at Tom's Hardware - I would be better off buying an X1900XTX rather than adding a 7800GT for SLI. (currently I have a 7800 GT...
Ok, running 1009 bios on this board. (haven't tried any other versions yet). Everything is great, it's rock solid so far. BUT,
If I set my cpu (manchester 3200+) to 300*9, and set the ram divider to 133mhz - I expected my ram's (Corsair 1024mb*2, PC3200C2) actual speed to end up at 200mhz...
Does anyone have any idea if I can use two 7800GT's each with the NV Silencer 5 (Rev. 3) heatsink/fan?? Is there enough room?
OR can someone MEASURE the distance on their 9NPA+SLI between the two PCI-E slots?
THANKS!
Please - take a close up "IN FOCUS" picture of your opteron or x2 dual core processors. Specifically - the area around the HEAT SPREADER. I sold my Retail Opteron 170 via ebay to a member of this forum, who immediately claimed that I had "removed the heat spreader, and swapped the expected...
OS = Windows XP 64bit w/sp1, Mainboard=Epox 9NPA+Ultra, CPU=Opteron 170
I currenty have a Dual Core CPU - If I wanted to switch back to a single core CPU - what would need to be done to do it correctly? I already tried it as a quick test with a spare harddrive - it booted up fine BUT it still...
Currently running an XP-90 with a low speed 92mm Panaflo fan (blowing down on the heatsink). I have a 3 year old Antec Mid Tower case, OCZ 420 PSU, one mild 80mm fan up front, one mild 80mm fan in the back. (room for more fans 1 in back two spots extra in front) Recently switched to an...
Does the FX6200 support agp 4x ? What about the FX5200? I'm needing a low profile version that will support AGP 4x (intel 845 chipset EVO D510 SFF) and that has DVI and Svideo out for HTPC use (no gaming whatso ever).
Some of the FX5200 cards state 8x (with no mention of any other speeds) -...
I have the PCI-E NVS 280 (low profile) with both DVI and VGA pigtails... I'm simply looking for the AGP version to trade for. Thanks!!!
THIS WAS "SOLD" already (made a trade w/ amicus)
Thanks!
(serious responses only please)
I am contemplating selling my G4 to someone. In your expert opinion - what is this machine worth:
Apple G4 Digital Audio, 1.2Ghz
(Sonnet 1.2ghz ST w/2mb DDR L3 cache)
1.0gb Crucial cas2 PC133 ram
Single Seagate 200gb hdd
Acard PCI IDE ATA133...
Anyone have one of these in their G4 tower? I bought one from Newegg, it's working OK but was surprised to see performance drop just a bit according to xbench (I knew it wouldn't improve much if any, but didn't expect a slight decrease)
Possibly someone knows of a better performing card? I...
Pc's are in sig link.
I want to know if someone has experience with using a KVM between a Mac and PC. I have plenty of KVM experience - but I just ordered a new 19inch LCD w/DVI-D that is going to be good enough for gaming (finally) so I'm going to consolidate everything to one desk. I...
Digital Audio G4 - currently I have a 1.2ghz Sonnet single cpu. Anyone have any suggestions (preferably from first hand knowledge) on a dual cpu upgrade that is at least 1.2 to 1.5ghz, that has L3 cache, and that doesn't cost too much over 600 US dollars? I know it won't help much unless I'm...
Hmm - I dont' actually have any BT devices, but I thought, maybe if I had BT on my machine I would have a reason to buy something "Bluetooth" like a new mouse or keyboard.
I'm familiar with Bluetooth itself, but has anyone used a USB BT device while connected to the internal port on a PCI USB...
Currently running a Sawtooth G4 with os X Panther - but bought a Digital Audio G4 as an "upgrade" ( I know, not much of an upgrade - but got a great deal and should be able to sell the Sawtooth for about the same amount)
Can I simply slap the hard drive in the new machine and expect it to work...
Does anyone know if all the Digital Audio models have the same wattage power supply? Or is it just the dual 533 that has the 338watt PSU?
I'm currently searching for a Digital Audio G4 to transfer all the hardware from my Sawtooth G4 into. (and then sell my stripped down (stock) Sawtooth)...
