If you are shaky about your CPU temp, not only use the monitoring tools but also set emergency shutdown temps in your BIOS. I think for most they start at 70C, but I have seen new boards that allow you to drop it to 50C I believe.
Well, it may be a voltage issue? Are you sure you are running enough power to the motherboard? Preferably a 300W+, would work best for a standard setup. You BIOS may also be out of date, check for updates, I know on mine it was outdated. I had bought some 1GB Twin Corsair XMSPro sticks and my...
Not exactly the "lazy weapon" effect...
I noticed this in Unreal 2 XMP, there is an odd effect you get with some sort of Beta mouse smoothing in the game. It's completely stupid and serves no purpose. But I noticed that if you move the mouse real fast, somehow the game compensates for it by...
$139 here, it says black w/o Power.

For that small of a case for that much dinero, thats the new ripoff #1 on my list. It doesn't even come with a power supply....ha. They were most likely discontinued for that reason, cost. It's a nice case, but I...
Hmmm, od, I have seen this issue alot with PC133 but not DDR. SPD is what controls the speed by your CPU FSB. And those 1-2-2-3 are your timings for your RAM, or basically how fast they will run.
Usually when not running dual channel your RAM cannot produce those kind of speeds (333Mhz) and...
According to actiontrip.com, the game was actually delayed.

"Computer and Video Games is running an unconfirmed report that Ubi's beautiful looking FPS Far Cry has been delayed and is now slated to appear some time in 2004. The game was originally supposed to come out this...
You said it. I can't stop playing this non-timed demo! It's great!
I only wish the demo would let you enable some advanced features like V-sync and possibly change the renderer. Hey, it may have the option for HW T&L?!
The most enjoyable thing that I have found is grenading the shark on...
nVidia workstation card - check :)
but what kind? There are so many models and some are a little robust. Need one relative to $300....
Oh, and a mobo? I like Abit but I was also looking at Asus and Chaintech, any suggestions here?
Don't waste your time with trying to get it working, get the fans and the new card at the same time, if anything try to extend the life of your card with a new video card brick cooler from like zalman or something.
I had this happen to me once, I think one of the solds had broken loose on a...
I need some tips to help me tilt my decision on a mobo. I am constructing a CAD/CDD computer system for my cousin who is creating his own company out of his house. Don't get me wrong, he has many clients that trust his capabilities in CDD. He designs multi-million dollar homes for these super...
Two comments for this post:
1. Wow, a standard that will actually support 2 high end video cards at once. Nice...
2. What? They stopped at X16, were they afraid that the case screws would come undone at X32? :E
Yeah, but will it run Half-Life 2!
Oh, here's some useless technology from ATI that came out a while ago, now why on earth would you need 3d on a phone if it doesn't run Half-Life 2? :P

If you are weary of your ATI card becoming mainstream before it can be shipped, just remember ATI does have a Trade Up program...
iirc you can buy the new card at a trade in price, and they ship it to you first so you have no video down time. Then you send your card to them and that's it!

I saw that at the Siggraph 2002 convention, very nice program....a bit pricey though, but well, well worth the money! Nice choice...
I personally enjoy the company of Mechanical Modelers/Renderers such as Rhino. Working my way up to a pretty heafty student discount on it...

The thing abut this one.... Unlike the zalman, it allows you to keep your ramsinks! :cheers:
Thanks for all the help in my last post... :bounce:
I wonder if they could have gone higher by leaving the heatsink fins on? I also wonder if that board shorted from the ice crystals.... :rolling: :rolling:
