    Help! Sata drive + IDE drive = crashes?

    Yep did all that. Memtest went all night with 0 errors, no viruses/spyware detectable which isn't really surprising since this is a newly formatted partition and I watch my network activity and ports like a hawk.

    Help! Sata drive + IDE drive = crashes?

    I bought one of the Seagate SATA 750gb perpendicular drives (model ST3750640AS) lately and stuck it in my system. Two days later, crash out of nowhere. It would do this on a very regular basis too -- every 1-2 days. Not sooner, not later. After making sure it's not the temps or other...

    Creative Squeal of Death

    Yeah, what I'm less keen on is buying a defective board with terrible driver support (how would you feel if your video drivers installed an aol icon on your desktop and keeps asking you to register every single time you installed it?) and a terribly bloated software package, then going out and...

    Creative Squeal of Death

    I'm getting the Squeal of Death and I was wondering if anyone out there has any more to add to my laundry list of possible solutions. Creative has no sentient tech support and it's up to us to us to provide our own: 1. Uninstall all CT drivers via DriverCleaner, install the beta drivers...

    BFG 7800GT for $347 from Dell Home AC

    I missed the 15th ship date by like 3-5 hours, hahah. Oh well, with these kind of cards, if you pay for the time. If you wait till september when the card would have shipped, I guarantee you'd be able to find a deal better than this. The GTX by itself went down 100 bucks over a period of 1...

    BFG 7800GT for $347 from Dell Home AC

    Canceled. Can't stand to wait till the 26th when it will SHIP, then even longer for it to arrive assuming they have it in stock then. Went ahead and paid another 150 to overnight myself a gtx. If I wait any longer, the r520 will be out (quakecon ati rep says september) and ill have massive...

    BFG 7800GT for $347 from Dell Home AC

    I grabbed it yesterday at $367 for an entire new system to replace my 9800 (poor bugger carried me through some tough times). A little worried about shipping, but otherwise this is a great deal.

    id Software's Official DOOM3 Benchmarks

    I'm sure the next-gen system in a year or so won't feature a Prescott core. Heck, I don't know why people still buy these... wait for dual cores already. JC = Jesus Christ

    id Software's Official DOOM3 Benchmarks

    $225 for 512mb ddr2 Corsair ram from newegg 4gb = 225x8 = $1800 seeing as these are 256mb sticks and nobody's got 16 friggin' ram slots on their mobos, you're gonna have to buy higher density sticks which would cost even more for same capacity. 2k for ram, yeah right. What kind of...

    [H] Cpu Scaling Review

    Yeah, WoW isn't taxing at all. Heck, it runs fine at 12x10 on my comp and I'm using a total pos! Seriously though, mmorpgs shouldn't be used to test since there are too many variables, they require subscriptions, they have constant game patches that are required to be installed to play (so you...
