I've got my gripes with the game but overall that video was very impressive

This kid is obviously not familiar with his computer. I'd recommend getting retail and just using the easy to install stock fan. He'll also have the warranty if it commits thermal death. If you're going to get a Barton chip, you have to make sure your motherboard supports 400MHz Front Side...

My advice, you would know if you had any applications that would require that card. If your most intense 3D graphic applications are games, get an ATi Radeon.

Don't they have the pack week on the box? or did you buy OEM?

The new 64's aren't multiplier locked either, which is nice for OCers. I'd still rather wait for a 64bit Windows before dropping extra dough on a 64bit capable chip. Buying a 64bit chip at this point is a little preemptive in my opinion.

Not a huge fan of the new board style. Can we bring the old colors back at least?

I quit about a month ago. Then I had about 4 cigarettes on friday night while hammered. I need to take a break from drinking in order to quit smoking.

I've got the P4C800-E Deluxe and it's incredible. I just installed a P4P800 Deluxe in my buddies new rig and it's a great board as well. They overclock almost identically and have just about all the same features (check the Asus website for the differences in features). Most good online...

If you're really serious in overclocking, check out the forums at www.extremeoc.com. They'll teach you everything you need to know and are the most newb-friendly overclocking forum I've ever seen. I don't really think hl2.net is the proper place to learn about it.

A regular 2.8c may get you up to 3.5GHz with top of the line aircooling, but that is not guaranteed. You have a much better chance of hitting 3.5GHz on a 2.4c M0 with stock aircooling than you do getting 3.5GHz on a 2.8c non-M0 with great aircooling. SL6** is the last five digits of the...

No, the 2.8c will most likely not clock that high. The new 2.4c "M0 Stepping" with the product code "SL6Z3" will overlclock to around 3.6GHz on air, maybe to around 3.8-4.0GHz on water, and over 4.0GHz on phase-exchange. I have mine running 3.5GHz on air only limited to my RAM.

True. Also, contrary to popular belief, smarter people don't have bigger brains. But they do have more folds within their brain, which means more surface area. People with mental retardation and other disorders tend to have very smooth brains. 10% is an average use of the brain at any one...

Just because the MSI will OC, doesn't make it great for OCing. Asus and Abit are the two best boards for OCing, hands down. If you don't believe me, check the ORB leaderboard at futuremark.com. All of the top scores are either Asus or Abit. I prefer Asus cause they have less potential issues...

The problem with that deal is that Call of Duty runs well on even two year old cards. Who needs a 5950ultra to play CoD when it run great on a GF3?

I would check MSI's website to see if Corsair has any known issues with that particular motherboard. I would recommend an Asus P4P800-Deluxe motherboard. It's only around $100 and is a great board.

I swapped a 5900ultra for a 9800pro. The 9800pro didn't hit the top FPS that the 5900ultra did, though they were almost neck and neck. What the 9800pro did was keep very consistant framerates, whereas the 5900ultra tended to fluctuate in scenes with alot of action going on. The 9800pro is also...

As a veteran overclocker with the same motherboard as you, I say go with some PC3200 with aggressive timings like 2-2-2. When companies package pre-overclocked RAM, which is anything over PC3200, they have to loosen the timings to less aggressive timings like 2-3-3. This means that though...

Your avatar is a beautiful use of negative space clarky003.

If I saw that case walking down the street I would beat it's ass just for looking at me like that.

I'll make an exception just for you crushenator 500, you can use a watch.
