Should I upgrade my Dell 2405fpw to 2209WA?
Has anyone done this? Is it worth it?
I would lose the resolution - but my 2405fpw is getting old and is in need of an upgrade. I ruled out u2410 cause of the grainy screen. I'm looking for something more energy efficient.
I might even do 2...
Which one is faster? The notebook supports ddr3 1333. Does the slow timings of ddr3 1333 make it worse?

My T7k250 is making that header click noise and is annoying to say the least.

I want to know if playing quicktime movies, avi files will be slower on external usb 2.0 drives vs internal drives.
I know the transfer rates and all that stuff, but just want to know if playing movies will be choppy on external drive or exact same as internal drive.
If I have ddr 400. And the motherboard speed is 200 by default. What is the ratio the memory increases in speed.
Meaning if I raise the m/b to 205, 210, 215, 220 ... what is the new ram speed according to the m/b speed.?
I know the crucial ballistix are very good ram for athlon 64. But they are $100 more expensive than this ram.

If both are run at stock. Which will be the best bet ... ie... more stable.
I currently have a 2.2 p4 cpu. The cheapest thing for me now is to just get a intel p4 3.06 cpu and use that until I do an upgrade mid next year.
Or should I upgrade to a athlon 64 3200+ instead?
How much faster is it in gaming?
I looked at doom 3 specs and a 3.0 cpu did fine with...
I will only use it for listening to music and some gaming, so I want a good 2.1 system.
Klipsch ProMedia 2.1
OR
Creative Labs I-trigue L3500 2.1
OR
Altec Lansing mx5021 2.1
I don't want the bass to be too boomy. So I'm leaning toward the creative labs.
What do you think...
With doom 3 needing 2 gigs worth for ultra mode. Is it worth it to get the 2 gigs even though the latency is slower. I only have 2 slots in shuttle xpc.
Or should I get the fast 1 gig total. But then prob. no ultra mode in doom 3.
So either:

Back when they had that good price of $320 I had ordered... finally came. I'm running in sff at 410/1100. I only have intel 2.2 cpu 400 mhz bus. I get 10,950 in 3dmark with 61.77. I'm sure once I upgrade to 3800+ cpu that score will improve.
What really amazed me is that the heatsink...
I already have the GT on order and have dvd-rom.

Or should I get...
I am currently using an intel 2.2. I can upgrade to intel 3.06 (most my sff allows) or wait and get a new system with amd 3500 chip. I plan to pair it up with either an 6800 gt or x800xt pe. I plan on doing this in August. Hopefully the prices will go down some. I just need to play games...
It has backlight leakage on the top left and top lower part of the screen. No dead pixels though. Is it worth to exchange? Anybody have one with no leakage at all?
Looks like viewsonic is first to introduce 19" lcd with 16ms response time and DVI. Only time will tell if this thing is as good as there 17" lcd. I wonder if this is a 24 bit color display?

Here is my quick summary.
19" / 20ms samsung 193p
I just got this lcd. So far I miss having buttons on the lcd. I tried the MagicTune software. But in the end I'm sticking with good old ATI to adjust my settings.
The pivot part of the stand is not sturdy enough. If you lower the lcd...
HP L1925 has 20ms response time. Is it really faster than all the other 25ms lcd's out?
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/monitors/performance/l1925.html
I know this lcd can't be lowered all the way down. Maybe like an inch or 1/2 inch from desk.
Are there any cheap stands that can be attached to this lcd that allow height adjustment all the way down to desk level?
I want to get one of these, but the height adjustment is stopping me.
I have the samsung 152t right now. But I need a bigger lcd, so I was thinking of getting the 192t. I love the 15" design wise and color wise. I don't play that many games, but when I do they seem fine. Unreal, nba live, call of duty, and doom 3 when it comes out.
I would get the 2001fp...
