basic RAM voltage question

I'm building a new SFF system soon and need some help deciding on what RAM to buy. The memory I'm interested in is DDR2-1066 2x2GB. What I am unclear about is if the voltage listed on the specs is the maximum voltage they can run at or the required voltage to run at 1066MHz? (ex. 2.2-2.3 for...

I just downloaded (legally) a whole bunch of videos in .ram and .mov flormat. Is there a way (program) to convert these files to mpeg or something Media Player can handle? I hate having to have 3 media programs just to handle videos.

need help picking a system for a friend

if you're looking for cheap and internet... get a Dell and save your money or you could build a Barton or P4 for that price range, but if he's not really gaming don't worry about blowing a whole lotta $$ on the latest procs or hardware (and there's no real need to oc)

External drive enclosures

you don't need a to reformat it, just put it in the case and plug it into your laptop, XP should do the rest (and remember you're looking at what used to be your C: so you may hafta dig for your files) also the drives do just fine as NTFS

gravity is a theory... it works 99% of the time, but that exception (for very small scale interactions) makes it a theory

Barton question

Ok, here's the short version... I just ordered a new barton system, but can't find a shim for it. All the shims I search for are "non-Barton"... but the Barton is still an exposed core, and I'd rather not crack it. Any suggestions, besides being careful.

Socket 939?

personally, i'm not sure... yes, 939 will eventually be the socket of the future for the A64 but, getting a 939 board now doesn't mean your chipset won't be behind the times by the time you go to upgrade anyway -my 2 cents
