Cable router

<< The Linksys BEFSR41 has all the requirements you need. >> He said it. The Linksys router does everything you ask for. Gamespy, Q3, UT, HL, mIRC, newsgroups, you name it. And my software firewall never gets used anymore! :) No more port-sniffers... ;)

I found these at Micro Center. These are silver/blue Kingston Hypermedia disks on one very big spindle. This their regular price. Seemed like a deal to me so I bought two spindles. Until I get another jumbo HD I need all the cdr's I can get to keep my head above water! :D I've already...

So Many RAM Choices, Which To Choose???

If you are going for 140MHz or higher bus speed I would say go with the Kingmax TinyBGA 6ns PC150, well, because it's rated to go 150MHz. You know it will do this at cas3 settings at the very least which is still very good. If you want the best ram at 133MHz and are willing to roll the dice on...

DVD to Divx question

Actually ripping the disk to your HD is the easy part and the speed of your DVD doesn't really matter much. Encoding the DVD files to Divx is the tough part.

Unreal II -- Will it be totally developed for the Geforce?

UT and Unreal both work pretty sweet on my Geforce2-GTS. The key with Nvidia is to find the right drivers and don't assume that newer drivers means better. I am definitely looking forward to Unreal2! I bet it makes Doom3 look like just another Quake game... *that should cause some panties...

Slot 1 or FC-PGA 1GHz P3?

I don't think there is any real difference except that you can get the slot1 P3-1Ghz in a 100MHz bus speed if you like. Personally, I am waiting for the P3-1.133 or a dirt-cheap P3-1Ghz, depending on how long I can hold off on upgrading... the 1Ghz is taunting me but the 1.133Ghz is out next...

Microsoft probably agreed to break the FSAA abilities of the V5 with DX8 as a favor to Nvidia. Well, that's my guess anyway.

Poll: What is the absolute best gaming mouse?

Optical mice are the only way to go. If you like cleaning crap out of your mouse and buying expensive mousepads then get a regular mouse. If you want to be a gaming GOD get an optical mouse and forget about mousepads and cleaning the crud out of them. I am as serious as cancer.

Nonsense! Feel free to mix any memory you have. It will only be a problem if you are overclocking and even then you might not have a problem. I have mixed a 256mb-PC133 stick with everything from a 32mb-PC100 stick to a 128mb-PC150 stick and everything in between and my systems have always...

So when are 1Ghz P3's gonna be less than $200?

If the 1.133Ghz Tualitin-based P3 truly needs a new motherboard and won't work in current P3-compatible mobo's then Intel is indeed in serious trouble. It would be insane to require a new motherboard for a cpu that is the last in the line. Like requiring a new mobo for a P-233mmx that won't...

What is your favorite CD burner

I love the plextor too but it makes a seriously poor data-reading drive. My 8/4/32 does not read at 32x speed! I don't care what Plextor says! It ain't 32x! But it's OK because I use my DVD drive for data reading and it is an honest 40+ reader. The Plextor is a serious burning freak tho! :)

Obviously, the "suffering" part was tongue-in-cheek because I have a 7200rpm HD, 512mb of ram, and a Geforce2-GTS. ;) I still want faster though... it's a sickness I have. :D

Any decent monitor suggestions?

Get a KDS flatscreen monitor. I love my KDS AV195TF. They use the Trinitron(Sony) tube and they have an awesome 3-yr warranty program. Office Depot has the 17" AV7TF on sale for $219.99 after a $30 rebate. You will thank me.
