Dual ISP - any software to aid in fast failover for critical redundancy?

Tx Drebo. Yeah we looked at bonding two T1's, but we then said to ourselves: how long will that last for our needs? We are in this weird niche/no man's land where we have rather high performance requirements but not a large desire to budget for a 3-4 bonded T1. If the Comcast connection wasn't...

Possible to feed two computer systems into 1 speaker system?

Hi guys. Thanks for replies. Ended up calling Klipsch and tech said it should be fine to use a stereo to stereo split y-adapter. Only time overload comes into play is if the input source is amplified. Going to go down to radio shack and see what I can dig up.

Help with OC'ing, only at 210 fsb now

50C is too high IMO. I'm idle at 37-40C. Load 50-54C. What's your case and fan situation like? Notice you have a Zalman which is solid, but if your case temps are up high, that will compound problems. FYI, I run an Antec SOHO 1000AMG with 4 80mm 31CFM fans plus fans in the Enermax...

No need to worry. I'll sum up a few quick things that must be addressed: 1. Try reducing your HT Frequency to 4x 2. Up your CPU Volt to 1.52-1.55. 3. Stay away from "Auto" settings. Esp with RAM. It will set your timings too agresssive for a solid overclock. Set HyperX UL to 3-3-3-10 at...
