    M:robes or I:pods?

    If I get an MP3 player, the IRiver looks nice to me because of the SRS WOW Effect on it. The WOW Effect comes with WMP10, and it sounds awesome to me. Has anybody heard the IRiver H10 who can tell about the sound quality, with the WOW Effect turned on? Is there anything better on other players?

    RAM debacle

    1 gig probably won't last 2 years. I would get 2 gigs if you can.

    RAM debacle

    Go with the 1 gig in dual channel. If you wanted better than 1 gig than you would want 2 gigs in dual channel, not 1.5 gigs.

    Video Card questions.

    Oh well yes definitely don't get another Geforce FX card, get the 9600xt. You'll notice a big difference, most notably in HL2. I also had a 5200, and mine was PCI.

    He only has $1,500 to spend, he probably can't afford a dual core.

    9600 pro or xt would be best.

    Way to check temp on a 9800 pro?

    Anybody know if there's a way to check the temp on a 9800 pro because seeing as it's not a 9800xt it doesn't have that sensor or whatever so I can't check in the drivers and ATi Tool and Lavalsys don't seem to have it. As far as I know I can't check, but I ordered a VGA Silencer for it and I...

    I remember that thread, I think he was talking about one of the old versions though. And yeah it probably won't be as effective as something you pay for obviously, but it works pretty well for me at least.

    Radeon 9200 or GeForce FX5200?

    Isn't it PCI-E only?

    Help! It's a Trap!

    I thought of the same thing.

    Radeon 9200 or GeForce FX5200?

    Or get a 9550 at worst, that supports dx9.

    That $68 1gb ram must be some bad generic crap, and you forgot the motherboard.

    Argh. Buy Now?

    No you're pretty much right, but games like BF2 and F.E.A.R. when it comes out will need that 7800gtx or R520 for full settings or close to it. F.E.A.R. more so than BF2, you could probably get BF2 on almost max settings with a 6800GT provided you have a nice cpu and 2gb ram.

    internet security

    AVG Free Edition for the virus scanner and Zone Alarm or Sygate for the firewall will both work. And they're free.

    Socket 939 is better though, and definitely more future proof.

    The 6800's and X800's won't be running the new Unreal engine.

    Whats everyones Max OC!!?

    What cooling are you guys using, stock? I might get a 3000+ Venice, and with what I have now that will seem fast enough for me. But I would like to OC it to maybe a 3500+ if that's possible.

    512MB showing up as 480MB?

    I think this is the way I turned mine off. Right-click on My Computer, go to the Hardware tab, open Device Manager. Look for the onboard graphics in there, I think it's in there, when you find it, right-click on it, go to properties, and there's a drop down box somewhere that would say "Use this...
