    what do you consider to be a good OC of a 9800 pro...

    My 9800pro with Zalman cooler runs at 425/358 no artifacts. I can take the core all the way up to about 440 but didn't see much improvement so I run at a "safe" 425. If I take the memory anywhere above 365 it craps out.

    Q about upgrading gaming audio...

    I just upgraded to an Audigy 2 ZS over the weekend as well. I have it paired with a set of Z-640's. Absolutely incredible sound. My previous setup was a TB Santa Cruz and and old set of HK395's. Big improvement over those!

    Best sound card for gaming

    I just can't help myself...one more for the road. http://www.bartleby.com/64/C003/078.html Either way is readily acceptable...I choose the more informal, "could care less." And I really could! Cheers.

    Haha. I love baiting you morons in and seeing how worked up you get. Are you breathing heavy...is your face all red...sweating yet? LOL. Personally, I could care less how good or bad you think they are. Just having some fun at your expense. You've amused me enough for today. That is all...

    I didn't miss anything bud. That is one person's opinion...do you believe everything you read on the internet??? I suggest you do a search here and read the hundreds of posts on the subject or go over to newegg and read the reviews. Then...now try to stay with me here...take all that...

    Best sound card for gaming

    LOL I have them and they sound great. Nothing under $125 will touch them. Do they sound as good as my Infinity Alphas in my home theater setup? No...but these are for a PC and they are perfect for gaming and music.

    Ditto on the above. Anyway, svc.com sells 2 device round IDE cables for around 2 dollars.

    recommend speakers for Asus® A7N8X-E Deluxe

    Z-640's can be had for under $50 shipped. Check slickdeals.net. I picked up a pair and they rock. You will not find a better set under $125.

    Short HDD cables???

    SVC is awesome. They sell those 18" round dual device IDE cables for around $2.15 while CompUSA sells the same thing for around $20!

    Need some Memory Advice

    I have the Geil Value Ram you link in "stick 1" running on my 2500+ system. This memory works GREAT for me at the stock timings of 2.5-6-3-3. I set the FSB to 200 on my NF7-S and never looked back. It runs flawlessly and benchmarks above the 3200+ and right below the P4 3.2GHz. I did a...

    Computer I am going to build: I'd love some suggestions

    True, but the XP 2500+ is an even better deal ($81 retail at newegg) and you can simply run the FSB at 200 and you'll be faster than an XP3200+ out of the box. I wouldn't waste money on anything above the 2500+.

    Best memory for the price Nforce2/XP2500+ system?

    Geil rocks. I have their blue ValueRam (2.5-6-3-3) and it handles 11x200 no problem with the 2500+. Just need to bump Vmem up to 2.8V. Geil guarantees that all of their RAM will run at 3.0V so it's no problem.

    how would i go about painting my monitor?

    The above post is good but I did mine with Krylon Plastic Fusion paint available at Pep Boys, Autozone, etc. I've used the vinyl dye before and it's good but I like the plastic fusion better. The plastic comes out looking great. Either way, you really can't go wrong. My Dell M990 monitor...

    Best nForce2 motherboard around?

    I think you need to save your pennies and do a whole system upgrade when you have the cash. I can't see what benefit you will get by putting that old hardware on a new mobo.

    How to install a Graphics Card?

    Go to Radio Shack and buy the $5 anti-static wrist guard. Ground it on the chassis before you do any work in there.

    Playing games at higher refresh rates

    Some games have an *.ini file that will have a configurable monitor refresh rate in there. That setting will most likely always be set to "60" out of the box.

    Gaming Machine?

    Agree with Cerb on that...depends on what your mobo can do. I run my XP2500+ in an Abit NF7-S which is a great overclocker. I set the FSB at 200MHz when I put everything together and forgot about it. Never had any problems. I do have the Zalman northbridge cooler.

    DSL without a phone line?

    Exactly. That's how Comcast works as well but they put filters on to separate cable from cable internet. That's how it's supposed to work but in a lot of cases they never bother with the filters so you can end up with free cable tv (basic).

    which is more important for ram?- timings or speed?

    Check out Tom's Hardware. They have an article all about timings. They concluded that timings don't mean much anymore. They mean more with P4's than with Athlons but still not much difference in all the testing they did with various timings and various apps.

    ABIT NF7S quality on the integrated sound... what is your OPINION?

    On my system, it sounds like crap compared to my Santa Cruz card. I have these old (3 years) Harmon Kardon 2.1 simulated surround speakers that I plug into the Versa Jack on the Santa Cruz. From the Santa Cruz control panel I then select the output to be 4.1 Digital Out. I have no idea...

    DSL without a phone line?

    You must be talking about SDSL if the upload is so much better than your 200kbps cable. SDSL rocks for games. I have an advertised 512/512 DSL line but actual throughput is more like 640/640. Not the best for downloading but great pings.

    Gaming Machine?

    Just wondering what processor you went with? No reason to go any higher than an XP2500+ since you can OC it to XP3200+.

    Silent 9800XT?

    Hey guy....sorry I just saw the thread :D j/k And like Pete said, you need the fan on it per Zalman's recommendation for 9800 and 5900 series cards. If you get the Zalman fan you can hook it up two ways....12V and 5V (silent). You can't hear it running with the 5V config.

    Silent 9800XT?

    I'm not sure why you guys are saying you can't overclock with that setup. That looks just like the Zalman heatpipe with fan, right? Personally, I'm running a 9800 pro with Zalman ZM80C-HP and ZM-OP1 fan set to low at 435/360 with no problems. There are a ton of other people doing the same.

    Black replacement Bezel's

    You could simply paint them using Krylon Plastic Fusion paint available at Pep Boys, etc. I just did a Dell M990 monitor and it looks factory. The paint costs around $4-$5 per can.

    Memory Suggestions, need to replace Buffalo DDR

    I have the the Geil with the blue heat spreaders (Value RAM) and have my 2500+ running no problem at 11x200 running the stock mem timings at 2.5-6-3-3. You can't get the timings much tighter than that but in reality the timings don't so much matter anymore. Especially with AMD. There's a good...

    Memory Suggestions, need to replace Buffalo DDR

    Yea, Geil is underrated. I like them because they say right on their website that all their memory is guaranteed to run at 3.0V.

    Memory Suggestions, need to replace Buffalo DDR

    Geil Value RAM PC3200 rocks. CL2.5-6-3-3 and it will do 200FSB all day long. Has some nice heat spreaders on there too. I think I paid $75 for a 512 stick about 6 weeks ago.

    I want a silver case, what options are there for silver drives?

    Spray paint as the others have said. Krylon makes a spray paint called Plastic Fusion that is great. No sanding, priming, clear coat, etc. required. Just clean the piece you're painting, spray it and it comes out looking great. I just painted my old Dell M990 monitor black and it looks brand...

    best heatsink/fan combination

    Do a search on Silent Boost here, extreme overclockers, etc. and you will find glowing reviews. Thermaltake has issues on some products but not this one. You get a nice copper heat sink and a Panaflo fan for a good price and it is extremely quiet.

    xp2500+ overclocked to 3200+, are my temps ok?

    Ditto...temps look good. I get about the same with my OC'd 2500+ except I max out around 50C. I run a very quiet PC and have all my fans on a controller at low speed.

    Installing Zalman on GF FX - How to remove heatsink?

    Zalman will cool that card just fine especially if you have a fan blowing near it. I have the zalman on my 9800 pro and it overclocks like a champ. Better than with the stock fan. I added the zalman OPC-1 fan and run that on the low speed (5V) side.
