I'm not happy with my computer

If you run 16xAA and all the details 1600x900 should look awesome.

Will a Pentium 4 Northwood suffice for HTPC?

Yeah not worth it, if you plan on keeping it any length of time, it will actually be cheaper to buy a brand new energy efficient system than run that p4wer hog. When I upgraded my old C2D I save over $70/year in electric, after a few years it adds up.

Get better fans (Nexus) and run them as slow as possible. More fans running slower is better than a few fans running fast.

The future of SSD's

Overclocking an SSD

Since SSDs are all solid state now, I wonder if anyone has tried cooling one with liquid nitrogen and overclocking it? Seems the problems would be changing the clock speed, and saturating the data bus?

What is the Best LCD Under $1000

Thanks for the suggestions, I want a monitor that will at least be an equal to my current CRT (22" Mitsubishi Diamond Pro II). It will be used mainly for programming and photo editing, but also a little for video editing and gaming. What I find ridiculous is that even the highest end desktop...

What is the Best LCD Under $1000

What is the best LCD you buy for under $1000? With color accuracy, gamut, contrast, and black levels being most important. What is the best LCD at any price level right now?
