    X800XL Pre-Order Again at ATI.COM with 10% off

    As an aside, the SKU works for the US side only... Does anyone know the CDN equivalent SKU for the x800 XL?

    Weird colors and lines appear on screen randomly.

    I had a similar type of visual problem with my 8mb Matrox video card.. it would work for random periods of time, it would bring up many vertical green or pink lines rendering the display pretty much useless. A reboot would go back to normal before it would eventually happen again. Sure...

    Newly bought Maxtor dirve is out of warranty

    I would exchange it for a (hopefully) new drive at staples.

    Is everyone getting this from the UK/US or am I just really unlucky?;)

    Microsoft Retail Partners, Office 2003 Available again!

    Hrm, still not available for me... Although, it's only 2000 points for MS Office for me (MS Canada retail)... perhaps that could be why.

    Microsoft Retail Partners, Office 2003 Available again!

    I usually check about once a day for Office/WinXp but haven't had much luck yet... I saw some crappy Xbox game available once, but holding out for something useful. It's rather convenient that the site only works in IE v6, but not in Firefox (or even IE5), but I expect nothing less from MS...

    Microsoft Retail Partners, Office 2003 Available again!

    Office 2003 Professional ... Temporarily out of stock :-( (Like everything else 99.9999% of the time..)

    DDR2 4300 memory

    If you buy two 512MB (hopefully identical branded) sticks of Ram, you will be able to run in Dual channel if your motherboard supports dual channel (and the Ram you bought). You would have 1024 MB of Dual channel Ram. (If you bought two 256MB sticks, you would have 512MB dual channel ram)

    Watch out for fraudlent emails from supposedly from Ebay...

    In the forum, sure... but in emails it's possible to spoof links to appear very legitimately so they actually go to a different site when clicked... Personally I write most links into the webbrowser window address bar manually, which could be a bit overly paranoid, but fairly safe.

    Watch out for fraudlent emails from supposedly from Ebay...

    Damn, the Get-Rich-Really-Quick link I got only was going to net me $10,000,000.00 :( Also, I got a fraud email supposedly from Ebay when I don't actually have an EBay account.. rather interesting :) (Registered to a completely different email..)

    DVI ? Cable Lengths

    Your subwoofer might not be magnetically shielded, and should not be placed right beside a PC Tower. Give it at least a few feet clearance from the Tower and/or other electronic devices IMO.

    MX510 or MX1000 Poll

    I got the MX510 for $30 after deals, which is pretty reasonable. Now I just need to wait 3-5 business days for it to be shipped and I'll be set. The only thing left to get is a nice shiny new computer to match but that's another thread lol.

    MX510 or MX1000 Poll

    Hmm, tried the MX1000 and (not surprisingly) it was rather heavy. Looks like it'll be an MX510 for me. Thanks all!

    asus x800xl at newegg

    It could just be me, but when these places are gouging, it would be nice if they could at least offer free shipping (like ZZF). (If you're desperate/crazy enough to buy a card on 0-day, then you have no choice, but anyways..)

    MX510 or MX1000 Poll

    Thanks for the response.. I guess I'll drop by a Staples or OD store and try out the mice and see how heavy the MX1000 is.

    Which is a faster HDD Setup?

    If this would be for a regular desktop computer, they would have comparable performance in most tasks. Unless you are using/transferring large files (eg video editing, multi-user server stuff, etc.) very often, you won't be using the capabilities of Raid0 very often. However, you still will...

    MX510 or MX1000 Poll

    I need to buy a new mouse, and while cost is a factor, comfort/reliability is more important. I will be using it for general use, photo editing, and gaming (in that order). I've been using an MS Intellimouse for the past 3 years, so the cord doesn't really bother me. Thanks for any advice.

    Just ordered my IBM Thinkpad T42p with Fingerprint Scanner (hehe).

    Depending on the way the fingerprint scanner works, a dead/cut off finger sends different electrical signals compared to a living finger IIRC. It inspires confidence that people want your laptop (and/or information contained within) so badly they will cut your fingers off, but that could be a...

    Non-SLI Asus Nforce4 motherboard

    Short of the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe, does anyone know if/when Asus will release an Nforce4 based motherboard for the A64 that doesn't have SLI?

    to RAID or not to Raid....that is the question

    If you plan on 'regular' desktop usage (perhaps that the comp would be for personal use vs. professional video editing on a job), then any possible benefits you might have from using Raid 0 will be minimized (and/or near zero). Your overclocking would probably be just as limited with or without...

    USB Cable length

    Common USB cable lengths are 6', 10'-12', and even 16'. If you really feel the need to go longer than 16', you could just get an extension USB cable (or non-powered USB hub) but not quite recommended because the signal may degrade over the length of the connection. You could use a (powered)...

    Wireless network question

    You have your DSL/cable modem plugged into your wireless router, and your 'main' computer connects via a network cable into one of the hardwired ports in the back of the router. You don't need to have the main computer on for a wireless PC to connect/use the router's connection to the internet.

    Pissed At BitTorrent

    Would an Intel Hyperthreading system run the Torrent apps better in the background compared to the AMD or is it optimized for neither of them? That aside, Azureus seems to run fine on my PIII 800 Mhz even running all night (It does use 99% of my RAM on occasions, but not often)

    Anybody have a Zalman TNN 500A case?

    Hard drives that are Flash based lol... I suppose you could use Seagate SATA or PATA interfaces with heatpipes and noise dampening foam... It might be inaudible (<20db?), but not silent.

    SP2 slower boot times than SP1?

    It could be that installing SP2 reset some of your former disabled services to Automatic, which could also account for part of the problem. You could also try Bootvis to improve boot times for Windows XP

    Is changing the location of the "My Documents" folder bad? Can it mess anything up?

    I would personally move the My Documents folder onto a different HDD than what Windows itself is being run from (if possible).. just in case something destroyed your OS, having your data nice and safe is a nice thing. A lot of your information will still be kept on the Windows partition (Look...

    Building New System

    I'd have the money for 200mhz more, which is why I'm leaning more towards the 3500 than the 3200 on the AMD spec. If the FX series (or Intel P4 EE) wasn't so expensive I'm sure a lot more people would get those (myself included). But if I end up with an Nvidia card if/when ATI doesn't turn...

    Upgrade to XP Pro?

    I've noticed that Windows update needs several services enabled and set to Automatic in order to work properly or else it won't let you get anything... including Automatic Updates, BITS (Background intelligent Transfer Service I think), and 1 or 2 more. It should say which ones you need...

    Building New System

    Thanks for the comments so far, I'm just hoping that by the time I build (sometime in February), prices will come down/supply goes up for the x800xl (or more specifically, pre-orders turn into actual orders and ATI sells their own product near MSRP). Otherwise, It's -400 for ATI and +400 for Nvidia

    What is the best way to install a pair of optical drives?

    I would put each optical drive on their own cable so they don't share the bandwidth of one cable. (You probably won't be doing direct copies from one disc to another, but if you wanted to burn 2 discs at once or just use both at the same time... I would think it is just personal preference to...

    Building New System

    I also priced around an AMD system also and was all the same (a little cheaper also) with a few changes: AMD 3500+ s939 (rather than a super clocked 3000+) A motherboard with PCIe (SLI is overkill for me, but the Asus SLI motherboard does look nice..) Corsair value ram 2x512MB The raptors...

    Building New System

    My current system works for basic tasks, but I think ~4 years is a good run for my system. I will probably have time and the cash to build in early February. Current specs include PIII EB 800 Mhz (cB0 stepping), MSI-6337, 512MB PC133 Generic Ram, Matrox G400 16MB (AGP4X capable), 80GB WD 7200...
