    1 GB to 2 GB of RAM.

    Yeah, but what about video rendering? I don't want to drop another $80 just to play BF2 better...

    1 GB to 2 GB of RAM.

    Right now I have 1 GB of ram, and Battlefield 2 is stuttering a lot. I'm thinking that upgrading to 2 GB will help the problem (because it has for many other people). But I'm wondering, will 2 GB of ram be a significant upgrade from 1 GB in terms of video editing/encoding? I do a lot of video...

    Driver questions...

    So you think I should just leave it alone and revert the driver back to the original? Because I think the new drivers may give Battlefield 2 better performance...

    Driver questions...

    Here are my specs: Asus A8N-E mobo Radeon X800 XL 256 mb video card Athlon 64 3200+ 1 GB ram OK, first of all, I guess I need to update my mobo's bios and drivers. I'm having some issues with the audio in GTA: San Andreas, and I think it may have to do with the audio drivers for my...

    So are you saying that AMD processors encode/render video better than P4 processors?

    First PC startup questions...

    OK, I finished building my new PC last night, and I just finished applying Arctic Silver 5 to the heatsink and CPU. Good news so far. Everything starts up normally, lights come on, all good things. But I just want to make sure I set up the power supply correctly. I have an Antec Truepower...

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    Well then why does it show them putting it on the heatsink? And why is the thermal pad on the heatsink?

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    OK, I'm going to put some Arctic Silver on this thing...but I have a couple of questions. Last night, the system ran for about 10 minutes. Would this be enough time for the stock thermal pad to be melted in? If it has already been melted in, can I still apply Arctic Silver to it? Also, I...

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    Because I already built the computer, and everything is up and running fine. I'd rather not go in a screw around with the heatsink any more just because one thermal "paste" is better than the thermal "pad" that came with it. Would there be any noticeable negative effects using the stock...

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    I'm not going to be doing any overclocking or anything CPU intensive like that, so I think the thermal pad will be OK for me right now. And by the way, what is the blue thing in that pic you linked to? My heatsink didn't come with anything like that. It only had a plastic shell over the...

    SATA hard drive problem...

    I'm trying to setup windows right now with my 250 GB WD HDD, but when it asks me to partition the drive, it says there's only 131069 mb available. What does this equate to in GB? I would think it means 131 GB, and that's a LOT less than 250 GB... Why isn't it recognizing the drive's full...

    Problem with first startup...

    OK, I think I'm getting off pretty good so far, I don't have any MAJOR issues starting up, but there is one thing I'm worried about. None of the front LEDs are coming on. I'm almost positive they are all connected properly (although the printing on the actual motherboard is wrong I think...

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    Yes, I'm using the heatsink and fan that came with the cpu. Also, there is a square in the middle of the bottom of the heatsink that has a gray gooey film on it. Is this the thermal pad? Or is the black layer on the bottom of the processor the thermal pad?
  16. B

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    OK, there's a black piece of foam over the bottom of the processor. Is that the thermal pad? If it is a thermal pad, then that means that I DON'T need to apply thermal paste, correct?

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    OK, well I just read on this other site that it is NOT required for the first time you install the CPU/heatsink/fan. They said something about a thermal pad already on it, and that I have to peel off some kind of thin film.

    Is Thermal Paste required?

    So I just started reading the instructions for my AMD 64 3200+ processor, and it says that "thermal interface material" is REQUIRED for all AMD processors... Is this really necessary? Do I HAVE to put this paste on? If so, what kind of paste is the best to get, and does anyone have a link...

    Question about computer build...

    OK, I'm going to be plugging the one 250 GB SATA drive into the SATA1 slot on the board. I'm not configuring RAID or anything. So do I need to install any drivers?

    Question about computer build...

    I just browsed the mobo disc and I didn't find any SATA drivers. The only thing I see is SATA raid drivers. I'm not using RAID because I'm only using one SATA drive, so do I still need to install any RAID drivers?

    Question about computer build...

    Could I update the bios after I get windows installed, or do I have to do that at the same time I install the SATA drivers? Could I put the SATA drivers and BIOS update on the same floppy? EDIT- oh, and yes, I do have an old XP disc without SP2 on it.

    Question about computer build...

    OK, let me get this straight. When I put everything together and turn it on for the first time, what am I going to have to do? The motherboard only came with one CD. And I have a Windows XP Home Edition CD. So how am I going to do this? When it starts up for the first time, what is it going...

    Question about computer build...

    I just started building my computer, but I had to take the floppy drive out of my other desktop computer to add into the new computer. I just realized though, am I going to have to have some sort of floppy disk with BIOS updates or anything BEFORE I boot up the computer for the first time? Do...

    Custom build help...

    Oh man, thank you...I was starting to get worried there for a minute... But how exactly does dual channel work? Would I still insert them in the same way as regular memory sticks, or is there some kind of configuration I need to do in the BIOS when I first set it up?
  28. B

    Custom build help...

    Awesome. I have another question: I read in the ASUS mobo manual somewhere that it doesn't support dual channel with Corsair Value Select ram. Is that true? I guess what I want to know is, will that memory work with the A8N-E, dual channel or not?

    Can someone help me with my A8N-E?

    I'm going to start building my computer as soon as I get my DVD burner in. (Actually, that's another question- can I build my computer without the DVD burner and set it up and everything, or would it be better to wait a few days for the DVD burner and install it for the first time start up?)...

    Wireless networking help...

    But even if it is Ad-Hoc, it should be able to run them both, just not at the same time, right? Could I turn off the laptop but still get the wireless signal to the desktop, and vice versa?

    Wireless networking help...

    Yeah, my modem does have a router built in, but do you think it would conflict with my laptop's wireless signal? Or would the laptop and the desktop just share the wireless connection?

    Wireless networking help...

    OK, I'm going to have to figure out some way to get internet access for both of my desktop computers at the same time. I have SBC Yahoo! DSL currently on the computer downstairs, and I have a laptop upstairs with a wireless card that I use for internet upstairs. I'm going to install a phone...

    Are LCD monitors horrible for gaming?

    Well I haven't tried it out yet because I haven't gotten all my parts together for my new computer, but judging from all the reviews, I think I will be satisfied. Thanks UsandThem, I never would've thought to look on newegg.

    What is currently the best DVD burner out there?

    I have every part for my new computer except for a DVD burner (because the Pioneer one I had in my shopping cart mysteriously dissappeared right after I hit "submit"). I've heard about the NEC 3250s, but are there any better models in the same price range? I don't want to spend over $50 for...

    Are LCD monitors horrible for gaming?

    I just looked at the reviews, and almost every one of them is positive. They say it's great for games. Sucks for everyone who paid $300+ for a monitor!

    Are LCD monitors horrible for gaming?

    I thought LCDs were supposed to be the new big thing??? Why the hell did I pay $200 for it if games will look crappy on it? EDIT- hey thanks man, I'll look at some of those reviews.

    Are LCD monitors horrible for gaming?

    It's an Image Quest L70S... The screen looked really good at Fry's, but then again it was only showing the desktop on screen.

    Are LCD monitors horrible for gaming?

    I just bought a Hyundai LCD TFT 17" monitor for my new computer, but I've been hearing lately that they are really bad for gaming... Is that true?

    I'm taking my 6600 GT back for an X800 XL...

    Actually, I was going to get the PCI-express version of the card. But do you think the 6600 GT is a pretty good card right now? Will it play HL2, Far Cry, and Battlefield 2?
