What type of DDR for ASUS A7V266-E mobo?

I've decided to go with Crucial for my A7V266-E mobo. I'm upgrading from 256mb to 512 mb. I'm confused one one point, however. Which of these do I want---> DDR PC2100 ? CL=2.5 ? Unbuffered ? Non-parity ? 2.5V ? 32Meg x 64 or DDR PC2100 ? CL=2.5 ? Unbuffered ? ECC ? 2.5V ? 32Meg x 72 Can...

Which computer/motherboard combo is best?

Well, I can definitely swap DVD or CD-ROM drives, and many other components. The motherboards, however, are the only choices offered by each company respectively. Hypersonic only uses the ASUS, and Micron only has the NFORCE.

question on iiyama monitors

The iiyama 451 has a USB hub which is very useful, a redesigned better looking frame, and a new control menu system for easier navigation. I have both, and prefer the 451. (although either choice is excellent) Also, the newer generation 451 has slightly better color depth and brightness.

DVD burner?

Yes, but you don't have the money for it ($2000-17,000) You could buy a DVD-RAM for back-up, with its 5.2 gigabyte storage capacity for under $500, but it is not like burning a regular DVD. The actual DVD-RAM comes in a black sealed case. DVD-RAM drives can read and playback DVD movies. DVD...

What is the best brand of CD-R's?

Kodak Gold has been rated among the best CD-Rs on the market. I've used Kodak Gold Ultimas for about two years now, and have been very pleased. I've never had any cd/dvd player chug when trying to read a kodak.

Well, its gotten to the point where I'm drowning in CD-Rs. Thanks to making 2 back-ups of all my MP3s, along with burned programs and images, my archive has gotten out of hand. Since DVD-RAM drives have dropped below the $500 mark, I'm considering buying one from Hitachi, Creative Labs or...

Video lockup--but only in FPS games. Any suggestions?

My default AGP aperture setting was 128mb with 4x enabled. (factory setting) I tried lowering it to 64mb, and then 32mb, but the lock-ups still persist. I don't know if this is important (doubt it) but the lock-up problem didn't start happening until I tried installing my old Voodoo2 card to...

Video lockup--but only in FPS games. Any suggestions?

I do have a VIA 133 chipset. The cards fan is working fine, plus I have three other fans in the system, so heat shouldn't be the problem. Just a couple more quick questions. If it is the AGP bus setting, why hasn't the problem shown up before? I've never once touched the AGP settings, and the...

Trouble installing new Gladiac BIOS. Please advise...

Actually, my card is working flawlessly with practically no hangs. In benchmarks like 3DMark 2000, I score around 6200, so performance is good also. My current BIOS is 0.00.03, so I thought this new BIOS would make some major improvements. Is that not always the case???
