    mATX A64 mobo recommendation

    Hi peeps. I am ready to upgrade my old system (Athlon XP 2800+ w/AGP) to an Athlon 64 based system w/PCI-E video (A64 because I run Gentoo 64-bit). I have a qpack case I will be re-using, so I need an mATX board. I've been out of the loop on hardware, so can anyone make suggestions the best A64...

    Macs Faster Than PCs?

    Damn, some of you really have selective hearing(reading) don't you. I said it was MY OPINION! And the opinion, AS I SAID IN MY LAST POST, was separate from the few calculated numbers I posted, those were not based on anything other than the given numbers in the article. Sheesh, I'm done...

    Macs Faster Than PCs?

    Ah, that was a real argument with an opinion at the end. I used math and numbers to prove a point, that their test didn't prove a point. Sorry I don't have time for a better argument, if you want that, look to enraged78's post before mine, he's right too. I followed it with my own opinion about...

    Macs Faster Than PCs?

    ROFL, giving PC's a run for their money? What? Ummm, ok. Looks to me like A PC counterpart won just as many of the tests as the Macs for the most part. They make it sound like the Macs totally kicked the PC's arse. They should do the math, the differences between top spots either way are only...

    6800 GS and ZM80C-HP?

    Hi, has anybody used a ZM80C-HP on a 6800 GS, or know if it will work? I have a ZM80C-HP on my Ti4400 right now running in my HTPC. I want to upgrade to a 6800GS and hopefully use the cooler again since it is an HTPC, Zalman's site says it will not fit a GT or Ultra, but nothing about a GS. It...

    Who uses AA and FSAA? Really?

    Ok, my opinion? I play at 1024x768 or above (1280x768 on my htpc/plasma, 1024 or 1280 on my desktop depending on the game) AF is noticeable for sure, I crank it to the max, the ground in front of you looks like poo especially without it. However, I find AA to be pointless and never use it. I...

    FX5200 vs Ti4400, What gives?

    On the 5200? Yeah, I got it for about $25 and all I needed at the time was a card with s-video out for my regular TV. Then I got a plasma so I swapped it with the Ti4400 that was in my desktop. But I discovered later after posting this that even though it keeps up in the beginning, the 5200...

    FX5200 vs Ti4400, What gives?

    Ok, so I figured my FX5200 I bought just to have a card for my HTPC was slower than my old Geforce 4 Ti4400 and other posts online seemed to agree. So, when I got my new Plasma TV I swapped out so that the supposedly faster Ti4400 was in my HTPC for gaming. However, I'm playing CS:Source on my...

    Any 19" widescreen lcd's?

    Hi, I'm shopping for a Widescreen LCD. My buddy got the Dell 20.1 Widescreen, awesome monitor, don't even see ghosting when gaming, but a little to big for my tastes, I find myself moving my head all around to see everything. The only smaller widescreen's I can find are old (couple years, so...

    Better FPS increase: Chip or Video?

    Hi, here's the deal. I have enough money right now to upgrade either my chip, or my video card. I havn't been keeping up like usual on hardware these days, so I need a little help. Currently, I'm running an Athlon XP 2400+ and a GF4 Ti4400. In general would I see a bigger increase in gaming...

    Which desktop do you use? (Poll)

    I asked that guy at school, it was fluxbox, so I was going to try it on my laptop at least, since KDE takes forever to start up on that machine. But that Kahakai mentioned above looks really cool, is that fast like fluxbox?

    Which desktop do you use? (Poll)

    Oops, sorry. I actually just plugged them in based on most downloaded on Tucows. There's about 40 desktops, but it will only let me do 10 in the poll. There's one I was interested in that a classmate told me about before, but I forgot what it was called. He said it was very fast, and you could...
