    Arctic Cooling Accelero X1

    I will reflect this in the review, thanks. Edit: I should mention that had the card been equipped with a Silencer, then the temps of the card would even be lowered further, without a doubt. The Accelero is a solution designed for BTX cases and doesn't use the DHES technology that the AC...

    Arctic Cooling Accelero X1

    I didn't do direct comparisons, because it was too long of a span between testing, I wouldn't have remembered exactly how it sounded. I can say though, that the Accelero is definitely the quietest cooler I have ever used. With my water cooling rig going, I actually had to look over at one point...

    Vizo Master Panel and Memory Heatsinks

    If the MasterPanel is all installed, I can't see a problem of hooking up the HDD while the PC is on. The MasterPanel has an Off/On switch, so if it's powered off and you hook up the drive, there's no power flowing out to it. Once the drive is hooked up, you can push the power on the panel. I do...

    Anybody going Dual Core?

    I have to admit I truly like Dual Core. You can literally play a game while your computer is doing something hardcore. I did a test where I was playing HL2 while a Super Pi calculation was running. I couldn't even tell that the program was running.. it was still smooth. That's why I like Dual...

    Max Payne 2 was incredible. Everything from the gameplay to the graphics to the sound. The environments were so incredibly realistic, it really added to the overall experience. That was one game I had a very hard time putting down until I beat it. Lee, I agree with you 100% about Twisted Metal 2.

    Show off your video card!

    I may as well post what my cards look like side by side. The Accelero is not even _that_ much taller than the Silencer. If only it was a few mm shorter, it would fit in my case with the door closed.

    Arctic Cooling Accelero X1

    i see you have a DFI board. can you rerun the tests on the accelero and give temp readings for the NF chipset and PWMIC? Sorry, the GPU was taken out of the case due to the fact that I couldn't put the door back on. It's also a buggy card that's ready to be RMA'd yet again, so I don't want to...

    Corsair Unveils the World’s Fastest Production DDR2 and DDR1 RAM

    I personally love Corsair, and the PT4000 2GB kit is the best I have ever used over _any_ maker. I've been extremely pleased with all Corsair I have used, and have had better luck with them than any other. It's all about luck, apparently.

    List of Games You Think are Overrated.

    I honestly couldn't imagine playing an MMO that had a damn queue! That's hilarious! I heard about queues happening at times, but I had no idea they were so prevelant.
