    Quick question: Do I need to remove mobo to change HSF?

    Thanks for the insight. I'll just just get a better HSF once I upgrade my processor.

    Quick question: Do I need to remove mobo to change HSF?

    Sorry, I figured people would find enough details in my sig. The new HSF (Thermaltake TMG i2) attaches with the same mounting mechanism as the stock Intel HSF (i.e. four plastic doohickies that pop down into holes and lock into place). Socket 775. Specs as seen below: Gigabyte...

    Quick question: Do I need to remove mobo to change HSF?

    Well, the title pretty much sums it up. I'm wondering if I need to undo everything and take the mobo out of the case in order to change the HSF. Thanks in advance.

    Any good reccomendations for a DOD:S fan?

    I appreciate the many suggestions. Red Orchestra sounds like it's right up my alley. I'll try to check it out this weekend (can you rent PC games? lol). Last night I played around with Insurgency and thought it was pretty realistic and very cool for a beta FPS. I think I'll hold off on that...

    I am never playing CS:S again.

    I think I'm more impressed by how fast you were in and out of the bathroom. Assuming you began doing your business at the completion of the previous round of CS; that was one 1337 deuce.

    I am never playing CS:S again.

    Lets see... Joined random pub; took out 7 rushing CT's on Aztec with pump shotty; 4 headshots; banned from server in less than one round. Priceless.

    Any good reccomendations for a DOD:S fan?

    Okay, first and foremost I think I'll try Insurgency and P.R. Both operate on game engines that I already own, so I'd might as well give them a go before purchasing another game. I checked out the media for both, and they do look pretty good. At first glance I'd say Insurgency looks like it...

    Any good reccomendations for a DOD:S fan?

    I have been an avid gamer of BF 1942, Counterstrike, and Day of Defeat for many years. I recently, however, built a new system around the prospect of playing BF2. After much consideration and time spent trying to like it, I have concluded that I simply do not like the gameplay of BF2. That...

    Um, the little square brass heatsink on the motherboard fell off..

    Thank you, sirs. I'm going to be a cave dweller this weekend and horse around with the new machine. Can't wait to get off work! Throw in a $17 OEM dvd-rom drive, Arctic Silver 5, some ties and a couple SATA cables and it came to $840.00. All from Newegg. I'm sure if I had froogled...

    Um, the little square brass heatsink on the motherboard fell off..

    =) Last night I finally built my first computer. As a total and complete noob builder, I went slowly and deliberately. I reseated the NB heatsink thanks to the advice I got in this thread, plugged the incredible mess of wires in to the motherboard and tied them back, closed her up, said a...

    Um, the little square brass heatsink on the motherboard fell off..

    Thanks for the advice on the AS5. One half of a grain of rice it is. Wait... is that long grain, sushi, wild, or brown rice? All I have is Uncle Ben's! Guess that'll have to suffice.

    Um, the little square brass heatsink on the motherboard fell off..

    Will be AS5'ing the sucker! I never know how much of that goop to use, though, as I used it once on a 6800 with mixed results. Don't want to use too much, don't want to use too litte.

    Um, the little square brass heatsink on the motherboard fell off..

    So I got all of my parts the other day from Newegg, and as I'm taking out the motherboard (Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 rev 2) I seriouslly BARELY touched that heatsink -- i believe on the "chipset" -- and one of the spring-loaded corner screws just popped right up. Obviously it wasn't secured very...

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    Alright I think I am going to go w/ the E4400 and the 8800gts. My current old dell is a P4 3.0ghz; 1gb ram; outfitted with a 6800GT. BF2 is pretty much unplayable (~25 fps). CS:S is okay though. New machine will far outshine the old one, yes?

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    I never want to have to worry about "core temps" and constantly having to check in on my cpu to make little adjustments. I just want to get off work, turn her on, and play. But lets say that I were to get the E4400 and bump it up to 2.4ghz, would I ever have to worry about temperatures and...

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    Oh, I'm watching and taking notes. Thank you for your suggestions. Seriously. I like Sinn's original arrangement plus the XFX because although I've heard OC'ing really isn't that hard to figure out, I'm still not sure I'd be comfortable monkeying around with clock speeds and what not. In...

    Anybody bored enough to help me piece together a budget gaming pc which will be solely used for Battlefield 2? I've never built a system before. I was one of the Dudes who Got a Dell long ago, and the thing has been running out of steam for years. Time to get something new. I cannot go...

    I learned my refurbed LCD lesson

    So far it has gone quite smoothly. The very nice Taiwanese lvl 2 tech support rep told me the green lines represent the "least thing you want have happen to LCD. Cannot repair, only replacement." So basically, I didn't have to jump through any "lets order this part and maybe that'll do the...

    What you say is true -- a refurb'd LCD like that is a major risk, no doubt. My inner frugality, pragmatism, and common sense are battling eachother right now.

    Would you buy a refurb LCD HDTV?

    I'm in the market for a 42" LCD HDTV. I love this Philips model (42PF9731D), which happened to be on an unnamed website today for an amazing price ($1200). Problem is it's a refurb, obviously. I've had no problems with other kinds of refurbished electronics (digital camera, DVD burner...

    Need advice for new laptop purchase

    OKay well I found a 30% discount coupon online for any Inspiron over $1299, and after some upgrades it brings this configuration down from around $1600 to $1120. This is in no way an imminent purchase, but is just so I can get some input on changes I might want to think about. Anyways, here...

    Need advice for new laptop purchase

    Yeah, I'm definitely comfortable with a 14.7 inch screen. I mean, it will make the entire machine smaller, which is great. I can also settle for a 100gb hd, so no big problem there. And I suppose I could always upgrade to Vista later on if I somehow want it, no? For the time being...
