    New Logitech Lineup

    Their feel is different and it seems to me they are larger in my hand. Even the pictures make them look larger to me. I've tried out a Mx1000 and G5 at a circuit city and I just remember it not feeling right in my hand. But it's not just the feel, like I said the dpi switching and extra stuff...

    New Logitech Lineup

    After going 1:5 in kills in DoD I broke my Mx700. :( I love that mouse. :( I'd go to a G5 or G7, but I fear the dpi switching will just make things worse on my gameplay. I found another Mx700 for 30 with 3day shipping. I had the dual optican Mx400(?) before that. Some of the new features...

    Wood Computer

    I've seen other models made of wood and most start with the innards of an existing steel case. They use the metal for mounting the internal hardware. If you can scrounge up an old Gateway it would be helpful. Just strip all the excess off and use the mounting hardware from it as a start. You...

    Wood Computer

    First, I'd suggest more fans. Unlike metal, wood will just insulate the heat inside. It would probably be better to put at least 2 in the front one in the top and one in the side. That would probably be a little overkill but it's better than trapping the heat. The button? You can probably pick...

    Benchmarking High Scores

    It's a Shuttle Ak39N. I wanted to go with an Ak35 but got talked out of it. That was my first pc I built myself and wasn't as confident in my decisions then as I am now. The Ak35 offers a lot more in the way of overclocking. I got the Patriot Signature Line PC3200 2x512. The speeds are supposed...

    Benchmarking High Scores

    Just go ahead and put them there scores at the top! http://photobucket.com/albums/c388/Jakal_Blu/Benchmarks/ But really.. I got my gig of patriot dual channel ram in and have the system stable at 2.1GHz just using fsb increases. My mb doesn't have anything other than that and ram timings. I...

    got a question? need some answer.

    I'd check out www.ibuypower.com if I were you. That systems a little pricey expecially only having the x600 card. The gig of ram is nice and it's got nice storage with the 250g hard drive, but I believe you can find a better value. I just configured the same system for ~$900 there. They offer a...

    Same to everyone lucky enough to have such a holiday. Happy Thanksgiving. I certainly ate enough for 2 people lol. It's good to be with family whenever you can and Thanksgiving gives us just another reason to get together.

    My new uber monster pc! Well sorta.

    Right here. http://forums.techgage.com/showthread.php?t=247 I've been looking around for other options and I've found a Raidmax Scorpio full tower for under $100 without shipping. I'm considering that instead of the Aspire case. I've also been looking around for large, nice, cases that...

    My new uber monster pc! Well sorta.

    Well I've just bought a pair of dual channel Patriot Pc3200 512 sticks. ~$70 after rebate including shipping. Included heat spreader, and from reviews and articles I've read they overclock well. 40mhz+ is attainable with the ram. I'm hoping to hit close to 2.8 or better with the 3800 but I may...

    SilverStone PSU Muffler

    It looks like a good product but like you said, those who deal with the noise from other fans probably wouldn't notice a difference. It's good to see a company looking at other ways of quieting the systems though. For people with almost full water cooling and 2 quiet 80mm or 120mm fans that may...

    LANPARTY UT NF4 SLI-DR Expert

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813136165 See if you can round up one of those for testing Rob! No SATA 2 which is a shame. You might be able to wrangle 2 Crossfire enabled cards to test with as well.

    Most Wanted demo out!!!

    I started with the 240sx in underground 2 then went to the audi tt. Loved the handling and accelleration of that car. Then tricked the Skyline when I unlocked it. You can try to catch me as IceManBlue online PS2. I'd try the demo if it would download at more than 40k for me. I think the...

    My quest for 26 seconds in Super Pi...

    That is an awesome rig man! Great work on the cooling system. I don't think I'll ever do something that extensive but man is it nice! Great scores and good luck hitting that 26 sec mark :D

    LANPARTY UT NF4 SLI-DR Expert

    There's a black 8 pin plug right beside the 24 pin. Hard to see at first glance. Do you have any performance specs on that board yet? I'd love to see how the new revision implemented the SLi with that much distance between it. The new bios will really be able to push the limits on performance. Cool~

    SLi - Yes or No on your new rig?

    I've been keeping up with the AMD 64's since their release and the 3800 and 4000 Venice editions were perfomance monsters. The reason I was looking at a 3800 is that it keeps up, and in some cases, outperform the 4000. I read that review on the San Diego and agree there's a reasonable...
