Yeah, Americans get a lot better exchange rate. If you look at the price of the 256 MB cas2 PC133 RAM for $174, do the exchange and it would only be about 104 but the American's exchange rate would probably drop it below $100. Thats pretty sweet for 256MB of cas2 ram!

Check out "www.pccanada.com". Its really good prices in Canada, and if you live in the states, with the exchange on the dollar, you would probably get the prices for about half or slightly above. They are selling a GF2 Ultra 64M for about 670 but if you do the exchange, its about...

Kenwood 72x the pits or is it just me?

Yeah, I have the latest firmware. Still doesn't do it for me. Does it read CD-Rs well? I'm the second person to buy one that sucked so that's why I'm not very impressed. I hope Kenwood has a good warranty process ! And no, my computer doesn't suck!

Kenwood 72x the pits or is it just me?

Is it just me or is the Kenwood 72x CD-ROM a piece of crap? I used benchmarking utilities after noticing that it wouldn't read CD-Rs that well and didn't seem to transfer at the rated 68-72x. Well, I ran "cdspeed99" on: Pioneer 16x DVD 40x read, Plextor 12x10x32 Kenwood 72x Here...

Free Dynamic IP Registration?

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find reliable, free, dynamic IP registering. I'm attempting for the first time to set up a server. I know I need dynamic IP registering and I'm finding it really tough to find one. Any suggestions would greatly help! Thanks!

Help removing GPU heatsink . . .

Is it not attached with 2 plastic clips? I think it is. All I did with my Hercules is take needle nose plyers and pinch the ends of the 2 clips and the heatsink pulls right off. I would suggest that the GPU be a little warm as to thin out the thermal compound on the GPU and heatsink. Give...

AMD/VIA machine consistently hangs - back to Intel?

Hey Mikster, I think 2000 might be your problem...I run a dual boot system (98 and 2000) and encoding video in 2000 just isnt' happening. 2000 actually locks up and I have to reboot. Yeah, 2000 locks up! 98 is fine for encoding so that's what I use. Oh, just to let you know, I have the Asus...

I either do one of two things when the window thing happens.... 1. Format, cause F$@k you Bill Gates, you aren't taking my computer over... OR 2. Press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT on the left side of the keyboard and then the same on the right side. This resets your keyboard and everything is fine...

GeForce2 64MB GTS 3DMark scores?

Hey Thorn, If you go to www.riva3d.com, they have all the latest detonator drivers and I found that the 6.47 drivers are the best so far. You should try these drivers and make sure your motherboard drivers are all updated (ex. agp). I think you will score a lot higher with these drivers and...

GeForce2 64MB GTS 3DMark scores?

I guess I forgot to mention in the first post that all the scores were at 1024x768x32, not 16. I can get well over 6000 with 16 bit. I think I'm going to try the other drivers tonight. Evil Boy

GeForce2 64MB GTS 3DMark scores?

Well, I thought I installed the latest VIA 4in1 drivers (4.03) but I might be mistaken. I did just reinstall windows so I could have made a mistake. I'll check it out and see though. It could also be my video card settings and what tweaks I have enabled. I'll test different settings and let...

need help overclocking on A7V

You will have to use the jumpers, they are located by the CPU. Thats the only way you can set the voltage and frequency multiplier together. In jumperfree mode, you can't set the frequency x. As I said, for my 600, I set the voltage to 1.675. If you are using an HB pencil, make sure you do a...

GeForce2 64MB GTS 3DMark scores?

I was checking out Different drivers for my Hercules GF2 GTS 64M card and testing them in 3DMark 2000. I got the drivers from Riva3D and was wondering if anyone else has done the same for me to compare it to. Before I put the scores, I must say that I was very disappointed with Win2000...

TBird & Cu shim & alpha (thermal paste between the shim???)

Yes sir! Be very careful with thermal paste and the Lx bridges! Just apply the paste on the core and nothing else, not even the heat sink. Most people put too much on and end up insulating the core! I used arctic silver TP, applied a small coating on the core of my new 1G T-Bird, and...

need help overclocking on A7V

I successfully overclocked my 600 to 800 but it took a bit to figure out. First of all, in jumper free mode, you can only change the core voltage and FSB. This impedes things as you can't change the frequency multiplier, therefore, you can't reach 800Mhz. I set the motherboard to jumper mode...

Mine does the same when I first look at the hardware monitor but if you move selector down over the fan speed, the rpms will drop to normal, as well as the temperature. I'm using a PEP 66 HSF and you really have to position it right on for it to make good contact with the CPU. Make sure you are...
