    WoW player's video card

    That's not because of your video card, that's because of your ram/cpu and the servers. What's happening is because there are so many people there you get a bottleneck someone on your network line which causes all the packets of information to come back slowly from the server, which is why you...

    WoW player's video card

    Turn down your view distance from 100% to 50% (or even 75% if you need it) but the difference between 50% and 100% isn't very much at all, and when compared to the performance hit it isn't worth it. WoW uses up an enormous about of RAM and CPU power compared to GPU because of all the individual...

    WoW player's video card

    QFT, almost made me reconsider where I was going in College until I decided to quit WoW, probably the best thing I've ever done for myself, like drugs but not so hard to quit.

    Prescott 3.0E still have heat problems?

    I use the old school S478 3.0E and the best way that I've found to keep it cool is to maintain a good case airflow and the Arctic Cooling Freezer 4. Not only is it quiet but it cools well and it's cheap! :P I have my 3.0E @ 3.49 with idle temps around 38'c and max temps around 49'c. It's...

    What's your favourite mobo brand?

    DFi, they are all about overclocking and provide the most overclocking tweaks I have ever seen in a BIOS, and they're LanParty series are UV! :P

    Throttling Mayhem

    Are you using the latest BIOS revision for your board? If so, see if there are any similar issues with your ABit board. Also check to see if other people are noticing throttling at the same temp range with the same CPU as you. I know my Prescott doesn't throttle at 60C but it's a 3.0E 478 so...

    805 conroe

    If you wait, DFI is releasing their Infinity 975X/G board sometime before Conroe is released and shortly after that I would expect to see the LanParty to be released, and if you don't mind waiting a couple weeks the Infinity board seems really nice, although it doesn't have all the same features...

    Do thick 120x38mm fans fit in the P180?

    They will work in the bottom fan holder (where the one right infront of the psu goes) and in the back 2 spots above the cpu area, but not infront of the upper hard drive holder.

    Antec P180 Window question

    It looks like you're going to have clearance issues with the radiator inside the case like that, what you could do instead is mount the rad up where the fans are and put the fans outside the case pulling air through, although that could also not look so good, but that's just what I think based...

    A few questions about Intel?

    Well when it comes to everyday tasks and multitasking it would probably perform significantly better, you'll most likely notice it when you open say IE and WMP at the same time, or something like that as both cores will take up the different tasks. It may even be night and day for you as well...

    A few questions about Intel?

    After reading around quite a bit, if you like to overclock the 930D seems to be a great overclocker, but I don't have any first hand experience with that perticular chip tbh.

    Whats a long case out there?

    If you can find one, Chenbro SR 107 is by far probably the "longest" case I've ever seen. http://www.chenbro.com.tw/product/product_preview.php?pid=102

    ...Yeah my druid doesn't have the computer modding skill high enough to learn that script. Probably requires like 280 or something. Plus I bet farming the items is a pain to do.

    Crap! I've outgrown my Praetorian, what should I get?

    We have the same desk ^_^. As for a nice large case for a lot of drives and that stuff, I would probably reccommend a large case with fans for all the hdd's, since you like CM I would probably say the stacker.

    Arctic Cooling Freezer 7

    They need to make this for the 478 prescott, as the Freezer 4 isn't as good as the Freezer 7. Same chip, same heat given off, I wonder if I could mod it to fit my socket. :/

    The FX hands the P4EE's ass to it. It blows it out of the water. The FX series, man no competition. For the price the P4EE doesn't really seem worth it, so you get L3 cache, where are you going to find that usefull gaming? Not really anywhere. Just search anandtech, hardocp, overclockers...

    ThermalRight XP-120 experience - looking for oc'ing tips

    Well I am not sure, I know for the prescott ( 90nm technology ) you shouldn't go past 1.7V because of the blowthrough problem, but since yours is the 130nm technology I am really not sure. But yes those temps are insanely high, almost to where the CPU will start to throttle itself. I have my 3.0...

    ThermalRight XP-120 experience - looking for oc'ing tips

    Ok you are definately in the DANGER zone with your current voltage. Personally I WOULD NOT go any higher than 1.6v. You are SERIOUSLY reducing the life of your processor with that high of a voltage. There is something called a "burn in process" that the mfg's for cpus do to get an estimate on...

    Prescott Processor Over-volting

    Just don't go past 1.7 volts are you seriously risk frying the cpu. I have gone to 1.6 to get a 4.3ghz (from a 3.0) oc. It worked and booted into windows but it was idling at 60'C. So unless you have the cooling (I would suggest nothing less than phase!) you won't get far.

    ASUS A8V Delux post, but errors.

    Yeah we're good, hopefully someone will see this and figure out what they're problem is from it. We disabled both raid devices in the bios and that worked. Now we just get a long black screen with a blinking cursor right after the post stuff, then windows starts.

    ASUS A8V Delux post, but errors.

    Ok, so my friend bought a new computer (well, all the parts anyway) from newegg.com. He got a AMD Athlon64 3500+ 939, etc. He also got a Antec NeoPower 480watt, Corsair XMS PC3200 ECC Registered. ATi Radeon 9700, mouse, soundblaster Audigy2, etc.. We thought it was the ram, so I brought my own...

    Overclocking on ECS 848P-A READ!

    Idling at 40C is _NORMAL_ for prescott's. They get HOT, that's what they do. The 1mb L2 is what you sacrafice for the heat, and the 90nm technology.

    Best bang for the buck on new motherboard; suggestions?

    I second the P4P800SE as I also have one and it's a great board. For the price I paid on newegg, I was able to get it for around $70 or so at the middle of summer. I've been pleased by it, and it's a great overclocker!
