Memory timing are 2.5, 7, 3, 3. I did not add any heatspreaders, but I need to. Those Crucials are really plain and ugly. Looks like memory from back in the day. Everything has been stable for about a week now. It 's hard to beat for the price, which was $105 for each stick from Newegg when I...

Just to clarify, since people maybe under the wrong impression as to how good or not good this is. I'm using a 5:4 divider and running at the default voltage. I have not tried upping the voltage nor have I tried running it 1:1. I have alot of work to do so I need my PC; maybe later I can play...

Well I was able to OC it at 240FSB stable running two instances of Prime95 for 24 hours. 245 gave errors and 250 would not boot. Not too bad. Thanks for the recommendation (cf)Eclipse. BTW 2gb makes a huge difference in Photoshop. Thinks are so much quicker now.

Ok I ordered th Crucial, let's say that I can't get an overclock worth anything. Should I then mix and match my memory and be up to 2.5gb using four slots, or will that cause additional problems or give me a greater perfomance hit since it disable PAT.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to get more responses. I guess I'll go with the Crucial although people have been getting mixed results with that as well

I'm having a real hard time figuring out which of these two memories I should get. I've read all the posts here and at Anand, and as some of you can relate I'm still lost. The first is the OCZ 2x1gb dual channel platinum: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820227210 The...

I 've formated a drive many times more than that; maybe not in a 2 week period but alot none the less. It never hurt mine. If your using Window 2000/XP just do a quick format instead of a full format. Now if your trying to overwrite files like akapaulk mentioned that is another story

IBM made $89 billion dollars + $2,000 from your laptop last year to give them total revenue for 2003 $89,000,002,000. I',m sure they really appreciated your honesty, which I commend. But come on dude, he offered to give it to you. It was a gift. They know their profit margins and cost of unit...

That does sound promising. I'm not going to take a morally superior attitude because although I think I know what I would do, you never know when your in that situation. I just know I would be tempted because all the hoops you have to jump through in technical support, customer support...

They'll catch the error eventually and you will be billed for both.

It sounds like you got a good LCD. If mine turns out like yours, I'm pretty sure I will keep it.

Recently alot of people have been discussing problems with various LCDs, especially the Dell 2005FP, and backlight leakage. I wanted to start a central thread devoted to seeing how widespread this issue is for LCDs. Alot of people, including myself, are returning LCDs because of this reason...

Just to add, I recently got a Dell 1704FP and noticed the exact same backlighting issue with the white "X" on the screen. It is like four lights are coming out of each corner and converging in an X pattern. I did more research on this and it seems like a number of LCDs suffer from similar types...

Thanks for the review Sparrow_69. A paragraph break or two would have been nice :) . I ordered one as well and it should get here later this week. I had ordered and now returned the 1704FPV because for one it was too small for my taste, had backlight leakage and was susceptible to ghosting...

Actually to be more precise the 1704FPT has 13ms. The 1704FPV has 25ms. You can only purchase the 1704FPV by itself. The 1704FPT has to be gotten with a system purchase at this time. Relevant links...

woah dexth77, that's one of the worst backlight bleeding I've seen yet. I'm glad you posted that. I know if I got that I would send it back right away. The more and more I read, it seems that this is common, with a few exceptions. I feel ya ogf. It sucks going through these morons, but if you...

BigDuallie thanks for upping the dark screen photos. It's good to know that the backlight leakage isn't spread across the board. Is this your first LCD or can you compare it to others that you have owned?

It would be extremely helpful if you could post one of the pictures with the Matrix DVD in a dark portion of the movie.

Sparrow_69, please do post a review of this monitor after testing it out. Any comments would be useful because I'm thinking of getting this monitor. The price is at what I'm willing to pay. I don't game much so if you could post impressions beyond ghosting it would be much appreciated. :)

Thx for the reply Tedium. Unfortunately cutting the files would be too much of a pain for each individual section. This is definitely a deal breaker for the Ipod. Looks like I will have to get the iriver. It's not bad but I love the interface, control, accessories. and basically everything else...

I have a small 128mb iRiver mp3 player and love the a/b repeat feature. For those who don't know, A/B repeat allows you to mark the beginning and end of a portion of a track and repeat this loop indefintely. The 128mb is too small so I will upgrade to a hard drive option. I will either get the...
