Warm: Netflix $15.99 a month

Cool, they both now have distribution centers in Santa Ana, only about 20 miles away from me :D Think I'll try Netflix & when they start slowing down because I'm renting too many, I'll switch to Blockbuster :P

Canon Elph SD110 3MP $199 shipped

Nice & small, but only a 2x zoom & uses a custom (expensive) battery. The A75 is bigger, but it's cheaper, has a 3x zoom, uses AA batteries, and slightly cheaper Compac Flash memory. I also find the A75 easier to hold when taking a picture due to it's larger si

DEAD - xfx fx5800 - $109 at newegg

I picked up a 5900xt from Newegg Refurb last month for $144. Works great, came with everything, and overclocks pretty good too. An overclocked 5900xt will give you a bit of a boost over this card due to the 256bit memory bus on the 5900.

prescott vs. Northwood

Go with a 3.0c Northwood. My $200 Fry's special from a few months ago is running at 3.45 Ghz rock stable (Pime 95 x 2, Mpeg compression, Room at 85 degrees, etc) All with stock cooling, even using the pad on the heatsink :roll:

You don't change the ratio, just increase the clock speed. Go into setup. On the top right side is a menu choice called "Frequency Control" Set the AGP/PCI to 66/33 to lock the PCI/AGP buss The increase the CPU clock to whatevery you want (up to 250 I think). Of course make sure your memory...

P4 3.0c Retail Box & ECS 848P-A $199 at Fry's

Actually suprised with the ECS 848P-A motherboard. Pretty good board even though there's no voltage adjustment, just the FSB. I installed a P4 1.6A CPU that would only overclock to 2.0 Ghz in my old Epox 4SDA+ and it's now running Prime 95 at 2.2 Ghz, default voltage. Board is rock solid stable...

The new socket is not going to help much with the heat. Intel has spec'ed the BTX case format to help "Handle" all the extra heat put out by the faster Prescott chips.

Slot A Athlon 1GHz for $180?

Look for a 900 or 950, should be much cheaper. Also, unless your board supports the T-bird slot A, make sure you are getting a "Classic" slot A. The VIA based boards generally don't support the T-Birds.
