Modern AGP slots deliver 1.5 volts, right? I was wondering how much juice can PCI slots deliver. I'm wondering because I can't seem to get my Apple 20" LCD to run off my father's PCI FX5200, yet it'll run just fine off my Radeon 9500 AGP card. The monitor's power button glows then turns off...

I recently bought a 20" Apple LCD for my father's PC. I have the LCD hooked up to the required external Apple DVI adapter wich is connected into the DVI connector of his PCI FX5200. Unfortunately, when I press the power button, it glows for a moment and then fades to black, as if the LCD shut...

I'm thinking of picking up a polarflow TT water block, but I have the option of going 2 or 3 barbs. I'm not familiar with the 3 barb setup. What's the benefit?

I can't seem to OC my Prescott 2.4 for anything. I'm running an MSI 865GM2-LS mobo with the latest bios and the Vcore is 1.5V (the lowest my bios allows). My Samsung ram is stable at 2.5-5-2-2. Case temp is 28C, and cpu temps are 40C (idle) and 50C (load). I'm using a Swiftech HS with a Y.S...

Ok, I just put together a new system with some left over parts from my old system (check sig below), but I'm worried about my cpu's temperature. The case temperature is at 28C, but my non-OCed cpu's temperture is 51C at load. I've started to OC it a little (+200mhz), but my mobo's heat alarm...

I'm looking for a microATX case that can accomodate a standard ATX PSU. My options at this point are this: http://www.directron.com/a301bg.html and this: http://www.directron.com/superlanboy.html I'm not crazy about the usb area of the first case, though it's cheap. And I'm not a fan of...

My bios does not give me the option to adjust the vcore and vdimm. I was wondering if there is any type of software that will allow me to do so from windows.

My HDD currently averages 27 degrees C. I bought a heatpipe HDD cooler at a yard sale for 2 bucks. After installing it, my HDD reads 24 degrees C. I know 3 degrees can be significant for CPUs, but is it significant on HHDs? I've seen the same HHD cooler from Zalman sell for $30 and have to...

I currently have a 250W PSU and need more juice. All the reputable manufacturers that I've seen max out at 250W for mATX. I've seen some 350s on eBay, but question their quality. Before I try to squeeze an ATX-sized PSU into a micro ATX case, I'd like to hear your suggestions. Thanks.

I'm runing Windows XP Home and I cannot seem to complete my formats on my external USB HDD. I bought an external HHD kit and have tried 3 HHDs from IBM, Maxtor, and WD ranging from 20-80GB. The drive does show up under 'My Computer' and I'm able to right click it and select format. However...
