Do I need to upgrade RAM if I upgrade a CPU?

If I upgrade my CPU and motherboard to an Athlon X2 250 which looks like it can support up to DDR2-800, but my current DDR2 ram is only DDR2-533, will this really hurt my performance if I don't upgrade my ram?

Dell Inspiron Mini 9 (910) Review

I've been playing around with my Mini 9 for the past few days and I'm quite impressed. After reloading Windows XP on there to get rid of most of the crapware and turning off compressed drive. I have about 4.5 gb's left out of my 8gb after installing all my applications. I've been watching...

Video Card upgrade for Dell machine

I actually bought a used one from someone on the FS forums here (syndicate). It was originally from an XPS system he upgraded, but I believe most 7900GS's should work as they are not usually that long. I think the 7900GS is a better deal than a 8600GT since it's still a while before DX10 games...

Video Card upgrade for Dell machine

I have an E520 and recently put a 7900GS in it. The powersupply should be fine for it, but you'll need to get a Y molex power splitter to power the 6-pin power adapter it needs because there is only one molex connector on the PSU. Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the 305 watt PSU since I...

Microsoft Streets & Trips 2006 with GPS Locator $79.99

Actually.. the receiver is excellent. The MS software is not good for driving GPS navigation.. However, the software is excellent for planning and finding directions beforehand.

I don't think getting an attorney will help.. all the information which was posted can be found publicly. If it was the case that it was private information it might be different.

Computergeeks 3 day sale

It's true.. their RMA department rather sucks.. but otherwise they are a decent place to buy stuff. I've bought cases, speakers, and other stuff from them before. Only had to RMA one thing, but the experience wasn't all too bad. I'd buy from them when I see good prices, but I wouldn't buy big...

TOSHIBA 802.11B WIRELESS ROUTER $29.99 Ymmv NO REBATES

I got this at the COMPUSA in Schaumburg, IL. Pricematch was no problem. I just opened to test it out and it looks like it's very easy to setup. I didn't really test the signal since I live in an apartment which isn't really that big anyways. Overall.. looks good.

Wi-Fi Internet access HotSpot Finder

Isn't giving away free wireless to everyone rather dangerous? Won't you be held responsible if lets say a nearby hacker decides to start DOS attacks against a website from your internet connection?

Computer Show May 3&4

Wouldn't the Mall security be a little suspicious of a mob of people in the parking lot? Also.. if the Mall found out about this, I think they could legally charge you for using their property.

I have an extra PNY ti4200 64 MB. It still sealed and haven't been opened.. it doesn't have the "64 beats 128" sticker. I'd like to get $95 for it since I paid $87 and think $8 for my searching time isn't too much to ask. For pickup if u are in the Northest Suburbs of Chicago.

Is there any way we can request the Police or Government to investigate this issue and maybe just put him in jail or something? It's true this deal was quite amazing.. but isn't this still fraud?

I think there are people confused that this case is the same case inside as the 12-bay atx case at Compgeeks going for $10 cheaper. From what I've heard about the 12-bay case, this does not seem to be the case. IMHO, I don't think this case is made of flimsy metal and the PCI slot covers are...

Yes.. the front USB can connect to the ECS k7s5a. You have to look at the pin schematics found online and just make sure you put each pin in the right hole. Just do a search for it on Google.

How can I tell if it's a Powmax power supply? It says Computer Geeks on the power supply. Also, even if I use the cheap power supply.. should I worry that it will do something like start a fire or anything?
