    "Where Vista Fails"

    Did you make that post drunk? You like Vista because a Vista rep told you to? What am I missing?

    Zalman 9500AT Intel 775 CPU Cooler

    Looking for the ultimate air cooling solution for your Intel 775? The Zalman 9500AT may be up your alley, but may prove a little pricey for your liking. Installation proved a little problematic, but the cooling ability is evident. After reading my review here, feel free to discuss it here!

    XG Viper 2

    Hey, I noticed you had a BFG PPU. Has it reached 256ºC yet?

    XG Viper 2

    I liked the fact that it was light, and the LED in the front wasn't too bad. I like the light behind the front grille also.. it's cool. Thats about it though. It's a case for someone who's young, really. It would look cool in a kids room.

    XG Viper 2

    I don't know about that. I have friends who would -love- a case like that. They could throw a 1.8GHz Socket A with a 9600XT in there and it would be the best PC in the world. So, to each their own really. IMO, it's one of the ugliest cases I have ever seen, but it has a couple great features.

    Sapphire Demo PC '06

    Usually mods don't really catch my eye, but this one did. This guy did the mod for Sapphire, to promote their Blizzard gpu cooling system. http://www.modders-inc.com/ftopict-275.html

    XG Viper 2

    Like most product selections, there is hardly a shortage of computer towers to choose from. The XG Viper is made out of aluminum alloy and includes many of flashy LEDs. They even threw a 400W power supply in there to get things started. Are all these features worth the semi-steep price? After...

    Corsair 2GB TWINX2048-4400PRO

    I haven't used an ASUS board for AMD in a while, but if it's anything like my Intel P5WD2, it will rock. Good luck man.

    Corsair 2GB TWINX2048-4400PRO

    I am not familiar with that board, but I know it's a popular one. Have you updated to the latest BIOS for that board? I am not sure if it's a directly similar board, but Corsair tested 20 of these kits in an A8N-SLI Premium and each and every one worked fine. They were also using an X2 4200+...

    Corsair 2GB TWINX2048-4400PRO

    Try 3x HTT multi and then 265FSB with a 10x multi. I would throw your Vcore at 1.45 and your memory voltage at 2.8v. I can't see why 3-4-4-8 at 1T would not be possible at these settings, or a CPU overclock for that matter.

    Corsair 2GB TWINX2048-4400PRO

    I am not too sure. What's your HTT multi at? It kind of sucks that you can't go above 1.45Vcore, but it should still be able to give you at least 2.7GHz.

    Corsair 2GB TWINX2048-4400PRO

    Hmm, yeah I am surprised that CPU can't go higher than 2.55GHz. Even more, I am _very_ surprised that you crash going 1T. Even with my subpar kit, I was able to do 272MHz at 1T no problem. There's definitely something there messing with you. I blame it on Infineon ;)

    Corsair EPP Technology Interview

    Good point. I will work on a print version this evening.

    Wii likes the Opera?

    I have to agree. Although I am a Metroid fan, the gameplay videos did nothing for me. The new Mario looks amazingly fun though.

    Corsair EPP Technology Interview

    NVIDIA unveiled a new technology designed for overclockers called EPP, or Enhanced Performance Profiles. NVIDIA chose Corsair to be their joint partner during production and in launch, so we sat down with John Beekley to ask some burning questions about the technology. After reading the...

    Evercool VC-RHC GPU Cooler

    Bare in mind that not all GPU's require actively cooling memory chips. Take the 7900GT for instance. The stock cooler does not even blow air on them, and they are not covered.

    Evercool VC-RHC GPU Cooler

    Evercool is back with another graphics card cooler, and we have high hopes for this one. It looks almost like a toy, but the design could prove very smart. One immediate bonus of the cooler is that it only retails for $20, but let's see if it's worth it. After reading my review here, feel free...

    Seagate 750GB Barracuda 7200.10

    Is this something common that happens on S-ATA drives? Lo and behold, the switch was on the 1.5GB setting. Seagate didn't inform me about such a switch. I ran a couple benchmarks now that it's on 3GB mode. The only difference that it seems to be making is the burst rates, which now actually...
