I'm able to buy an LG L2300B at roughly half price, so it made me curious. I found out it uses the same panel as the HP L2335, but how viable is this screen compared to the 23 and 24-inchers of today? I haven't been able to find any reviews of it anywhere. Main uses would be movies / gaming.

As the topic says. I*m gaming a lot, using a 2.1 speaker setup (Logitech speakers). Would I notice any difference in the sound going from my old (5+ years) SB Live! Value to either an Audigy 2 ZS or an X-Fi Extrememusic? Given I had the choice of either, which would give me the most value...

So I'm -really- happy with my X1800XT, besides the noise the stock cooler makes. My airflow is a bit limited (Sonata II, 1x120 mm fan exhaust), but I'm still looking for a replacement cooler for my card. Do you have any suggestions? My card now idles at around 55 deg C. Mainly trying to get...

My rig died last night, so I'm looking into buying a new one with an Opteron 165. Now, my question is as follows: I'm going to overclock the Opteron 165 to around 2.4 GHz on air, and I'm curious if I need to worry about what kind of memory to buy to achieve this. Currently considering two...

I know there's a plethora of 20-inch widescreen LCDs, but what about 21-inchers? I live in Sweden, and there doesn't seem to be any way to get a Gateway screen here. Do you guys know of any other (good) 21-inchers around?

I'm curious as to whether there are any actual benefits of flashing my X850XT with a PE bios? The card currently runs 560/1180 with no problems.

Well, I loaded AtiTool and managed to somehow ruin my "default" fan speed settings for my card. Now it seems that no matter what I do, I either get way too high temps or way too much noise. Does anyone know what the "default" setting on a X850XT card is, regarding the fan? Or does someone...

Does anyone have any information on the Chieftec HPC-340-201 340W power supply? I know it's a bit old, but I can't seem to find any reviews or information about it . Trying to figure out if it's causing the problems I'm having with my comp, or if it's something else. Any known problems /...

Hey, I just bought a Powercolor X850XT AGP card to replace my old, broken Nvidia AGP card. Tried a few 3d games, and the screen starts going "On and off", i.e. turning black for a second, then coming right back on again, making everything unplayable. EDIT: When I alt-tab back into...

Does anyone know anything about this monitor? What panel does it use? Any links to reviews? Just saw it at pricerunner, and there's no info to be found (besides the hard facts, which I don't trust).

Well, we recently purchased two 42-inch LCD screens at work on which we'll display server information. We also need to be able to have CNN available, so a TV-tuner is a must. The card in question must have dual dvi-outputs. Any suggestions on what card to get? Guessing some kind of ATI AIW or...

Well, yesterday my Leadtek 6800GT (AGP) gave up on me. I was playing BF2, and all of a sudden I get these neat green / purple colors on the screen, a screeching sound and my computer reboots. After this, it seems that my computer reboots every time the Nvidia drivers are loaded, since the card...

A friend of mine purchased an Abit Fatal1ty AN8 motherboard to go with his AMD 4000+ (San Diego) processor. At the same time, he bought 4 x 512 MB DIMMs. However, after installing the computer, it seems that memory slot 4 was non-functional, as the computer wouldn't boot. Having slots 1-3...

I'm running a machine with a P4 [email protected], 1 GB memory and a 6800GT card. Yesterday, I noticed my AGP aperture was set to 256MB, so I changed it to 128 just to test. I ran 3dmark05 (Yeah, I know, not the best test platform) and my score jumped from 3802 to 4550-something.. Now, my question...

Hi everyone, Just bought a Viewsonic VP201b screen, and so far it's been super - except for when watching movies in full-screen. The problem that occurs is that movies are jagged and look interlaced when watching them in full-screen, while watching them in windowed mode works just fine...

Does the 2001FP come with a DVI cable in the box?

I know this might sound like a silly question, and I didn't know which forum to post it in, but here goes: Would my rig (P4 [email protected], 6800GT, 1 gig ram) run most new games at 1600x1200? Reason I'm asking is that my current screen doesn't support that resolution, and the monitor I'm looking to...

http://www.sparkle.com.tw/html/product/nvidia/sp_ag40gpt.htm# Is there anything "wrong" with this card, as in maybe not a full-featured 6800GT, maybe lower clocked or anything? If not, I'm buying one.

Since I'm buying a new LCD screen in a couple of weeks, I would like to get your suggestions on what graphics card to buy for my system: P4 [email protected] 1 GB RAM (2x512) running on an Asus P4P800 (i865PE) 350W PSU (Probably a bit taxed, 2xCD, 2xHD) I think the front side bus is around 230...

I'm buying a new screen, and currently have a 19" Viewsonic VP912B ordered, but here in Europe, they're scarce, so I'm considering cancelling my order and getting a 20" (2001FP or 201B) instead. As I doubt my (current) rig can run games at 16x12, could you either tell me or post pics of how...

Could anyone that's well-informed tell me the major differences between these two LCD monitors? I'm buying a new LCD screen for gaming / movie purposes. The VX912 is a lot cheaper than the VP912, but I can't see any differences. Am I blind?

When I install 2x512 sticks of PC3200 (400MHz) memory on the motherboard I get intermittent crashes in games, applications. Prime95 gives me a lot of memory errors, as I would expect from the former behavior. I tried running the memory at lower frequencies, but got the same result. I tried with...

I just ordered a new LCD Screen (VP912B), and to run games in it's native resolution (1280x1024) on my rig I'm not sure if the 9800 Pro can handle everything that's thrown at it anymore. I'm running it on a P4 [email protected] with 1 Gigabyte of RAM. Now, my question is, what should I upgrade to...
