Is there a temperature Diode on the XFX5900nu??

Halo Runs fine on my computer

duh...enhanced gf3 = gf4... ;) No really. I am pretty sure they use a gf3 base, but the game runs smoothly because TV's only need a resolution of about 640x480 to look decent...anything higher than that will not show the crispness as the tubes are just bogus like that. Now on a HDTV...

I currently have a 2.4ghz/400 chip overclocked to 2.53ghz on my abit bd7ii. I am kind of curious about hyperthreading. Will I notice much of an increase with the HT with many windows programs? Games? I do a lot of photoshop and music editing. Ben

Seagate 18.2GB SCSI 10K RPM Hard Drive $12 !!

I know current ata 100 and 133 never really transfer at these speeds...but... are these really going to be faster than a nice 80gig 7200rpm 8mb drive now a days? Wonder how 2 of these setup in raid would compare to 2x regular 8mb cache 7200 rpm drives. Ben
