Hi guys, I have encountered a really frustrating problem and I just can't solve it. Usually, I can find answers to my problems simply by pooling my personal collective experience in troubleshooting or searching Google, but this problem has me totally stumped. Issue: I CANNOT install...

Hi guys, I so wish you guys can help me. I consider myself pretty good in troubleshooting computers but this problem has gotten me really stumped and I haven't been able to use my desktop for the last 2 days. **Here's a single statement of my problem before I get into the details: I can't...

I'm selling an Intel P4 2.8GHz (Prescott) processor for Socket 478. On my Abit IS7, I was able to overclock it to 3.5GHz. I'll sell it for $65 shipped with the original packaging. EDIT (2007-01-18): Price drop!! Now, I'll sell it for $55.00 shipped!! SOLD to member at NVNews!!! My...

I want to really know just how long I can run my laptop off my battery from its 100% charged state until it shuts off due to running out of battery. Do you guys know of any program that can measure the total uptime? Sure, I got CHC running in the background that tells me just how much time I...

I just pulled these from a week & a half new Dell Inspiron 6000. The manuf is Infineon and the CAS timing is rated at 3. I'm asking for $45 including shipping. This upgrade would be good for someone who doesn't want to spend about $100 for a 1GB memory setup but would still like to enjoy...

Hi, I'm selling the Danger Den NV-68 copper waterblock for the nVIDIA 6800 series of GPU's. If you don't know what product I'm talking about, here is the link to DangerDen's site: http://www.dangerdenstore.com/product.php?productid=64&cat=48&page=1 Including the shipping charge, I'm...

Hi, I have question about upgrading the RAM for my Dell Inspiron 6000. It's based on the Sonoma platform and my configuration is as such: *Pentium M 740, 1.73ghz, 2mb L2, 533mhz FSB *WinXP Media Center Edition 2005 *512mb DDR2 400mhz I was wondering, can I buy a 200-pin SO-DIMM of...

My Prescott 2.8E is currently overclocked to 3.4ghz with a FSB of 243. The CPU voltage on the Abit IS7 is 1.6625 V. The DDR voltage is 2.6V on my 2x512mb PC3200 setup. (1x512mb is a no-name Legacy brand and the other 1x512mb is a Mushkin value brand). Through the BIOS, the 2x512mb DDR400...

Just like the title says, I need help from fellow watercoolers to see where I can go to buy a good variety of H20-cooling gear for affordable prices. I'm looking forward to buying some tubing, a reservoir, a CPU waterblock and a pump. Plz refer to sites that have good reputation, good...

How much improvement do you think I'll see when I go from a Chevette heatercore that can mount one 120mm fan to a 1977 Bonneville heatercore than can mount two 120mm fans?? Everything else will the same, of course, such as the coolant used, tubing (3/8"), and the GPU waterblock (the DangerDen...

I've had my 2.8E for about a year now. On the first mobo that this proc was installed to, it could only reach 3.1GHZ. Once I swapped the old Soyo board for the Abit IS7 in my sig, I'm able to take it up for 3.5GHZ with a FSB of 250mhz on a 5:4 ratio. At 3.5GHZ with 1.61 V, however, my...

I noticed that there is an inverse relationship between how far I can overclock my CPU to my GPU. If I overclock my CPU to a high level (such as my current 2.8E to 3.5GHZ overclock), my BFG 6800GT can't be overclocked that much. In fact, with my CPU at 3.5GHZ, my 6800GT flashed into an Ultra...

I just ordered a Dell PowerEdge SC420 server for my girlfriend. Here is the basic spec: -Celeron D 2.53GHZ, 256KB L2 -512MB DDR2 400MHZ (2x256MB) -80GB 7200RPM SATA-I HDD -Onboard video (Intel E7221 based) -PCI sound card What is the best PCI GPU that could be used for such a rig...

Ok, I've finally gotten all the components and parts needed to complete my 2-week long project. What I've done is install the DangerDen NV-68 waterblock on my BFG 6800 GT OC card and put it on its own water loop. Previously, I had connected the DD NV-68 to the Koolance Exos loop which...

As the title says, I took off the black aluminum (?) ramsink and replaced it with 8 copper ramsinks with Vantec. After running the HDR demo for a while, I touched the ramsinks and they were very warm. With the old black ramsink on, the surface temp never got as warm as the copper ones. So...

I want this baby badly but they're currently sold out at FrozenCPU. Also, DangerDen's homepage won't add the item to the shopping cart. I don't know what's going on (I tried using both Firefox and IE). Anyways, now that I'm forced to wait for those components to come in stock, I can do some...

*DISCLAIMER: This flash will work on all brands of the 6800 GT series cards. In this guide, I'm using my BFG brand 6800GT. DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Although the BIOS procedure is relatively simple and quick, not following the directions carefully may result in frying your card if you don't...

Has anyone done watercooling on the GT? With the stock HSF, I can hit 400MHZ and 1100MHZ easily. I want to take it higher but don't want to attempt it until I put on my waterblock. Also, if you're one of those people who put on a waterblock, what did you use to cool the memory? LKM...

I have for sale a built-by ATI 9800 Pro with four PC games--Prince of Persia, Rainbow Six 3: Athena Sword, The Simposons: Hit and Run, and Runaway: A Road Adventure. All 4 PC games, except for Prince of Persia, will come in their original retail boxes. Edit: I'll actually send you just...

As Koolance owners already know, there are 3 80mm fans blowing on top of the radiator inside that long, black sleek case. The air is blown upward. Now, I was wondering, would my temperatures be improved if I were to reverse the orientation of those 3 fans so that the airflow in directed...

Ok, here is my current setup. I have 3 HDD's---2 of them are PATA and 1 is SATA. On the primary IDE controller are attached a WD 80GB PATA HDD and a WD 30GB PATA HDD. On the secondary IDE controller are attache a Lite-On CD-RW and a TDK indiDVD burner. Finally, a WD 120GB SATA HDD is...

Since my 9800Pro can overclock easily to 445MHZ for the core and 365MHz for the RAM, I decided to extract the originla BIOS file from my card, change the default core and RAM clock speeds to 440MHZ and 360MHZ, and run the card this way. This way, I don't have to depend on OC'ing utilities...

I have the 1st generation Koolance Exos unit--the one with a black case instead of the silver Al one. The manual states that the unit contains a dual pump. When I took at the top of the reservoir, I can see the turbulence of water created by the action of the pump. However, I'm not sure if...

I haven't really been keeping up with the development of this game. Will the final product require a monthly fee like other MMORPGs out there?? If so, do you know how much it will cost??

Hello all, I just went out and bought a 2.8E Prescott CPU. I was originally going to buy the 800MHz Northwood version but the difference in price was only $10.00 so I bought the Prescott instead. :) Anyways, I wanted to know if anyone else out there has this CPU and I wanted to know how...
