    Issues with a dead PSU

    Turns out the PSU took out the CPU when it died. I put in the new CPU along with a replacement PSU, and everything seems to be running fine.

    Issues with a dead PSU

    I already tried to reset the BIOS. Is there anyway to confirm what died on me? I just bought a new dual core 3800+ which I haven't even gotten to install... It would suck to need a new motherboard/ram/cpu and everything.

    Issues with a dead PSU

    Woke up this morning and my computer was off... but I had left it running last night. Turns out my PSU went and was no longer giving power. Luckily my roomate still had his spare, so I put it in and now the motherboard appears to get power, but nothing shows up on screen. I have an EVGA NF41...

    Upgrade Path

    I'm not particularly interested in overclocking potential; for the most part I just view it as a secondary factor which is "nice" to have. I know that may mean losing out sometimes, but I'm not interested in buying one as a gamble, or risking breaking it. Only yesterday did I overclock my 3000+...

    All my videos have a red tint

    http://www.cccp-project.net/ Very simple but extremely well made codec pack, works with anything you could need when paired with real- and qt-alternative. Ask on their forums about getting rid of other crap.

    3000+ OC

    Got it to OC up to 2.35GHz, with a 260MHz HTT and 213MHz on memory. However, although my CPU is running nicely my 3D performance has gone to crap. I had run 3Dmark06 before hand, just as a rough comparison, and my score on the GPU tests dropped drastically.

    3000+ OC

    I had played around with OCing my A64 3000+ venice way back when, but ended up not wanting to risk exploding my processor so I held off. I decided to try again now that it wouldn't be nearly as costly to upgrade, but it seems like I'm having trouble getting the FSB very high. I don't recall...

    Upgrade Path

    Okay, if 939 Opertons are going to be going away soon then thats my first priority to upgrade I think. Is the 185 going to be the last one? $240 is a fair bit more than I want to spend, but it might be worth it to max out this motherboard's processing if I won't be able to later.

    Upgrade Path

    My main concern is NOT performance issues currently as I have yet to come across a game which doesn't run at least nearly max settings at native resolution. I've actually been extremely happy with this setup, considering how relatively little I payed and how long it has lasted. Instead, I just...

    Upgrade Path

    A while back I got a NF4 939 motherboard with a A64 3000+, and a 7800GT. I was originally planning to upgrade at some point to one of the higher end 939 chips as they phased out and prices dropped off, but before they were all gone. I haven't really been having performance issues of any kind...

    Benchmarks for World of Warcraft?

    Stop spreading lies. If my 3000+ can take WoW maxed without a hitch, a 3200+ is even better off. Especially running at a 30 inch resolution, its all about the GPU with modern gaming.

    Dell 2007WFP

    I suppose I could just call up Dell and ask for a replacement, and see if it has the same problem when it arrives. I guess I'll find out just how good their total satisfaction policy is.

    Dell 2007WFP

    I could really use an answer here: Should a pure black screen viewed dead-on from 1~2 ft away be a consistent black, or is very noticeable reddening in the corners normal? ...would posting some pics be helpful? It appears to be due to the view angle, since I do see some slight back light...

    Dell 2007WFP

    Am I too close? Is it not worth testing an all black screen? Am I expecting too much from an LCD? Looking at a black picture it has a noticeable reddish/purple hue around the corners which I wasn't expecting from a $400 monitor, but overall the picture quality is awesome. EDIT: My biggest...

    Dell 2007WFP

    Finally arrived... and I'm less than pleased. No banding, or dead pixels, but a horrible backlight or view angle problem, not sure which. Looking at a black screen, dead on, I see reddish bright areas in all four corners. Looking at it from a bit off center in front of one of the corners...

    Choppy-ness on sides of object in 3D games and on edges of windowed applications like Word or a browser.

    Sounds like tearing? Enabling Vsync should take care of games, I don't know about windows. Its not uncommon.

    LCD Buyer's Guide

    Do you want to play games or movies? If so go with the Dell instead of the two. Having a big gap right in the middle will certainly make things tough especially in FPSs, and personally I'd rather not have DVDs split up. So you'd probably want to do those things on a single 19", losing half the...

    WoW performance issues

    When getting a big monitor, LCD anyway, it can be a double edged sword. You have to factor in more than just the price of the monitor. If you want to use a 19" LCD at native res in gaming you need to be prepared to shell out for a comparable graphics card to feed it. Your friend is probably...

    Recertified: eVGA 7900GT

    Hmm... I'm also curious about the lifetime warranty. I notice Newegg now has recertified 7800GT's, which would be very nice for me to upgrade to SLI. I suppose that also raises the question, would going SLI with 7800GTs (probably more around Christmas time) be worth it? Or would it just be...

    :( So what are we all playing? I'm going through a big 'meh' period here, just playing CM4 & MarioKart64 multiplayer..

    D3 has fancy effects, but looks extremely fake. HL2 doesn't have as many effects, but looks very realistic. Just because an engine has more advanced stuff and requires more power to run, doesn't mean it comes out looking better.

    On P4 3.4 ht, is a X1950XTX a waste?

    I'm with the no CPU bottlenecking group. I've got a mere 1.8GHz, and I still run new games at max settings without any issues most of the time, because I've got a decent graphics card. The GPU is so much bigger a factor with decent res and eye candy; the newer processors are mostly a ripoff in...

    19" CRT to 20" LCD

    Well I decided to go for it... I'll soon be the proud owner of a Dell 2007WFP! Thanks for the support everyone, helped me to narrow down the choices and choose which one to finally go with.

    19" CRT to 20" LCD

    Does Dell returns for a single dead pixel and stuff? Reading around it seems as if they would, but their official policy says otherwise. My original question still stands... would be nice if this monitor would just decide whether its broken or not and make it easy.

    19" CRT to 20" LCD

    7800GT, I think it can handle it. Worst comes to worst I suppose I could run a smaller 4:3 res with bars on the sides in games like BF2... Tho that defeats the purpose.

    19" CRT to 20" LCD

    If I make the jump, am I gonna go "Wow this is great I shoulda gotten a widescreen LCD a long time ago" or "gee, I wasted $400 on this? I shoulda just saved and waited for the CRT to die." My mediocre CRT has been having intermittent issues, but it can still run just fine for a week or two in...

    Will component cables make that much of a difference with a PS2?

    YES! I was unsure of whether to spend the money or not for a while, but on a decent TV you should easily be able to see much greater clarity and a huge improvement in quality.

    Free DVD decoder/codec?

    Thats why K-lite sucks, theres so much extra BS in there to crap up your system. FFDShow handles a lot of things, but not everything, so you'll have to find out whether that plays everything you want. If you want to go beyond FFDShow and play things like MKVs, you can install it manually and it...

    You might want to check out CCCP xtknight. Their goal is to keep it very small and simple, but still play all common things.

    Dual booting

    I'd try Ubuntu. Very easy install, and you can install off the live disk. So you can try it out, and if you don't like it you just eject the disk and thats that, or theres one click and you can install with what I found to be a pretty easy installer. It'll set up a bootloader for you, so you...

    Help configure my first LCD - viewsonic vx2025wm

    I believe ClearType was specifically designed for LCDs, so I would think you should be using it. I've always thought it looked better myself.

    Free DVD decoder/codec?

    I don't think ffdshow will let you play DVDs in WMP, I may be wrong. I'm pretty sure K-Lite will already have installed ffdshow in fact. The issue with playing DVDs (afaik) isn't so much a codec problem, as a copy protection one. WMP just complains about copy protection for me, but MPC works...

    New LCD

    I've been thinking it through, and I think I can eliminate the LG L204WT, because of its high price but low value, and the Samsung 205BW, because I'd rather pay a little more and get the apparently far better Viewsonic. Unless I've missed out on another alternative, this leaves the $373.15...
