    Another iPod thread, another new model

    have to say that these new ipods look the dogs bollocks. Need to see what the video playback is like when they come out in teh uk. should be pretty cool though I would image. the black ones look great but i would fear that scratches would show up more on the black ones compared to the white ones

    Which graphic card...

    If you are willing to take the risk, then go for ebay, but you are taking a risk with hardware. I would just save and buy new, then you get a warrenty, and you know it works and if it don't when it arrives, then you can get a replacement shipped out to you. Upto you though.

    Video Card Problems?

    check for dust build up around the fan on the graphics card, also make sure the fan is spinning as it should be. Could check that there are no wires obstructing the airflow of any other system fans that are starving the card of cool air. Not sure if your problem is heat related, but its worth a...

    Samsung claims Breakthrough in LCD Screens

    I'm the same, just got a 19" TFT and its great. No ghosting or blurring in movies or games (fast pased ones too like ut2k4 and need for speed underground) and the image quality is excellent. So damn sharp, and goign back to teh older pc with a crt is pretty weird because its so blurry compared...

    Anyone know Java?

    Have you tried this: double circumference; circumference = Circum(radius); That way you would make use of your method, but if you arent going to use it then I would just delete the method as you don't really need it.

    Anyone know Java?

    why aren't you using your method to calc the circumference, and also why are you using math.pi when you already have a final double pi just above it?

    gfx card recommendation

    Just been checking out x800GT reviews and its cheaper and outperforms the 6600gt in some tests. You can find a review here: http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=1485&page=1&search=x800%20gt Looks pretty good performance for the price.

    gfx card recommendation

    The 6600GT will be totally fine for CS:S and HL2 at that resolution. In doom 3 you might need to turn down some of the visual settings to get it to run smoothly, but it will certainly run it, and although your cpu is dual core and I don't think games make use of the 2nd core, it is still fast...

    Building comp., lots of help needed.

    Don't you mean a network card that will allow you to connect your pc to a router/adsl modem via a 10/100mbit connection? Never heard of a 'broadband card'

    Really, really hot

    My card came with ram heatsinks and also a heatsink on the underside of the card and I have a fan that blows air directly over them, aswell as the arctic cooler vga heatsink with the slow spinning fan, my card is nice and cool even overclocked.

    A.I. Disabled

    I don't trust ebay at all, never bought anything from it and I don't plan on doing so in teh future. Too much risk involved imo. And I would never buy hardware from there, always buy new, you don't know what condition it will be in when it arrives, no matter what the sale description said.

    Buying a laptop

    If you are leaving it in one place and battery life doesnt matter, then go for a Athlon 64 cpu based laptop. If you need it to be good on battery life the go for a Pentium M based laptop. I think, but am not totally sure about this, that the 6800ultra mobile gfx is the best out for laptops at...

    Dell 3000cn Laser Printer

    could you somehow damage your printer if you try and use the paper that it doesn't support, or will it just make a mess since the ink won't stay put on the paper? if it won't damage it then you could always give it a try
