    Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 64

    lol they did that and put a fan blowing right inside the case. Yeah it worked.. until now. Just thinking of that makes me wonder if there's a bigger problem.

    Add another 512?

    If it's at all possible match your ram. I'm not saying your pc won't work with 3 different types of ram in it. I'm just saying you might have better luck if they are. If your ram sticks all have different timings and voltages you may run into conflicts or poor performance. Just a heads up.

    Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 64

    Well that's the issue at hand. The computer sits in a single office, which is air conditioned but the company creates power distrobution panels for large ships. So there's metal, dust, dirt and cigarette smoke going through the room almost constantly. Here's the stats: AMD 64 3500 1GB 2x512...

    Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 64

    For it's price it's definitely a contender in the cooling market. The ability to change the direction of the fan is a great addition. I'm thinking of picking one up for a computer I built for my father's company. The stock heatsink isn't doing it's job, but I blame the case and the dusty...

    Then I'd say go for it... unless you want to start saving up for a new rig ;). Prices steadily fall and finding good parts is easy nowadays.

    What song are you listening to?

    I liked Real Player before the whole RealOnePlayer thing happend. I have a Quicktime alternative program because I agree totally about the itunes stuff. I like the skin aspect and being able to create my own visualizations too much to give up winamp. Now: Shaggy - Angel Later: Evanescence - Hello

    What song are you listening to?

    Might we go a bit further with this topic and talk about media players? Personal preference and usage? I use WinAmp for all my listening while I keep Windows Media Player for any video playing. For ripping I use Poikosoft's Easy CD-DA Extractor. Now: Lost Prophets - Make a Move Later...

    No jokes from me I just built mine! I know some of the socket A boards offered dual channel ram and of course only 2 channels would work with it. I'd suggest looking up the specs and finding out. I'm pretty sure you'll benefit from another 512 stick but I don't know if that would cost you a...

    Can you believe this?

    That's really screwed up. I know our judicial system may be a little unfair sometimes but that's rediculous. I guess it's the mindset and beliefs of their culture though. It's hard to try to comprehend why when we don't know their way of thinking.

    Opty 148 has arrived...

    I love it, I mean, I've never had a board with so many options. The ram is holding me back but I've got to take care of some things for my car before going further. I especially love the built in fan control and Memtest86 available through the bios. It's got so many extra features I haven't even...

    Titan robela mod question...

    Let me just say firstly, that's an nice case! If noise isn't an issue a faster higher flow-rate fan is the way to go. You'll get more air to keep things cooler inside the case at the cost of noise. Any top name brand fan supplier will provide an excellent fan with relatively low noise and high...

    Opty 148 has arrived...

    Looks like you're doing well so far. I've seen Optys hit 3.5Ghz but every core and every chip is different. If you're motherboard and ram support a higher fsb, sure you can go further. The question is: Do you need to? Overclocking will shorten the lifespan of a chip, but as long as you keep the...

    List of Games You Think are Overrated.

    I've played both WoW and Guild Wars and I've got to tell you GW is a lot better graphic wise. You're actually a person and the world must be twice as large as WoW. I like the profession ability in WoW but I like the gameplay better in GW. It's really a matter of opinion and what type of play...

    Mr Rogers? WTF?

    I found that first one on Newgrounds a few weeks ago and I love it! lol The song is great and the irony of Mr. Rogers being the winner cracks me up! That last one though.. uh yeah..

    Choice to upgrade...

    Some have had issues keeping the htt at 5x200 or 1000mhz. It's been suggested numerous times to reduce to 4x if you're going for a very large overclock. You'll make up for it when upping the fsb. Right now mine is at 4x and 900mhz. Since I'll be pushing it further to a 4x250 it'll make up the...
