    Dell 2704WFP to Sapphire 1950 XT (DVI Adapter??)

    Hi, I have a Dell 2407WFP (DVI-D Single Link) and a Sapphire Tech 1950 XT video card (DVI-I Dual Link). The dell came with a DVI-D Single to DVI-D Single cord, but it does NOT fit into my video card. Is there a cable or adapter that I can get? It would be a shame to use analog VGA on the...

    4GB RAM useable? beneficial?

    Ah, It's not for that rig anyways. I haven't updated in awhile, but I'm actually building a new machine. Intel E6600, Asus P5B-E, Win XP Pro

    4GB RAM useable? beneficial?

    Okay, that was what i thought. That's not too comforting, though. So I guess the question is how often will I use RAM intensive apps that will make full use of the 4GB. I suppose it would allow me to run VMWare 24/7..and Have heavy photoshoping along side of it, plus Firefox, etc.. A...

    Best MUSIC 5.1+ sound card

    Thanks for the suggestions; I'm considering the XtremeMusic. How are the drivers for the X-Fi's? I remember I hated all the bloated software back when I had an Audigy some 6 years ago.

    Best MUSIC 5.1+ sound card

    I'm looking for a good sound card mostly for listening to music. I have good headphones and a Klipsch Promedia 5.1 speaker setup, so I want a good sound card to complement them. Right now I'm looking at the creative 7.1 Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro Series. I rarely game so...

    4GB RAM useable? beneficial?

    I'm thinking about getting 4GB of RAM for my next build. I do HEAVY photoshop (very large files) and am a VMWare junkie. Now i know about the 2GB virtual mem address space for apps in XP. So my question is, do you guys think that it would be wise getting 4GB (will it be used well?) Or...

    What's the diff between shutter and apperture priority?

    Absolutely correct. 3 factors to exposure: ISO, aperture, shutter speed. You can think of exposure as filling a cup. -Aperture is the size of the opening letting light (water) in. -Shutter speed is how long you let the light / water flow in. -ISO is how big the cup is. A high ISO (like...

    ProMedia Ultra 5.1 or the Z5500

    My Klipsch ProMedia 5.1's from 2001 are still going strong. The volume knob has always been buggy tho, but I usually use my keyboard volume anyways.

    New system, C: drive

    I'm not sure which backup argument you're referring to. But my idea of a backup is "copy all the data from drive D" Either to DVD or an external. No need to copy system files. A partition makes it a nice clean break. Plus, re-formatting is a breeze. Don't have to worry about backing up...

    New system, C: drive

    I would at least make a separate partition just for the OS (20-30GB depending on how many apps u install). Makes re-formatting and backups much easier. Personally, I like to have my data across several partitions. One for my main data, one for data dump (unsorted downloads, etc..)

    H.264 decoding dependent on monitor res?

    I just read the anandtech article on the extremely high CPU and GPU requirements of decoding H.264 HD movies. Now, if I had a 30" LCD, would I need an even more powerful CPU/GPU combo? Or put in another way: is movie decoding dependent solely on the resolution of the movie or does the act of...

    Promise controller card driver issue

    Hi all, I just installed a fresh copy of WinXP. But right before it starts, I get a screen saying there are problems with the file consistency on my drives connected to the Promise Ultra 100TX2 controller card and that it will run checkdisk in 10 seconds (hit any key to cancel). I cancel...

    Fast HDs

    Are all the 7200.10 seagate's really fast? I'm considering the Raptors mostly because I feel the 10K would make it faster for random access..which I'd assume heavy paging of Virtual RAM will require?

    Fast HDs

    By far my slowest components in my system are my HDs. Everytime there's a huge lag, I know my HD light is flashing -I don't even need to look anymore. I know in part it's because I need more RAM (1GB so far), but on the other hand, when I'm working with huge photoshop files that can't possibly...

    New system - buy now or later?

    Exactly why are RAM prices up right now? Yea.. maybe I will wait. $300 for CPU, I'm going for 4GB of RAM (HEAVY photoshop) so that's around $400-600, and any good mobo for Conroe is over $200.. Add in another $400 for case & video card..and extra for HDs, optical drive, and accessories...

    New system - buy now or later?

    I was pretty set on getting a E6600, but have been trouble finding a good mobo to go with it. I see a lot of good reviews of the Asus P5B & P5W, but see problems w/ Revision and a lot of reviews on Newegg that prevented it from getting 5 stars. I'm not looking to OC, I just want stability and...

    Friend's P4 2.4 running at 1.2

    Its a Desktop. What jumper/BIOS setting should she be looking at? I don't live anywhere close to her so I cant see for myself. Apparently her mobo is running Phoenix BIOS, and it's some kind of SFF mobo since her case is a Shuttle X.

    Friend's P4 2.4 running at 1.2

    I have a friend who checked her system properties and it says she has a P4 2.4GHz but under that it says its running at 1.2GHz. She has DDR226 RAM (not sure how many sticks). Off the bat, anyone have any ideas?

    Quick question - Core Duo 2Ghz to P4 lingo?

    I'm just curious to know that if I get a 2.0GHz Core Duo laptop, from a pure CPU crunching standpoint (assume no other bottlenecks), how that compares to my 2.8GHz P4 HT?

    Graphics Laptop

    I'm willing to pay a higher price because I know I'm picky. Build quality, and LCD quality are kind of hard to quantify. But if I can get those along with power, excellent battery life (4+ hrs ok I know this is a bit of a stretch..maybe at least 3.5hrs), slim dimensions, light weight, I'll...

    Is simply memorizing thousands of facts, terms, etc. proof of intelligence?

    Intelligence I feel can be measured in two ways: A) How FAST you can learn new material B) How well you can apply the knowledge If a person can memorize a book after reading it once, I will not deny that is an intelligent person. But memorizing a mountain of knowledge over a very long...

    Dell: Proprietary floppy?

    Hey, I'm real close to getting a Dell (for the deal out right now, I just can't beat the price building a custom one), but I was wondering... To add a floppy A drive, it's an extra $30. When floppy drives should be costing no more than $15 at most, and avg more around $7-$11. But I...

    Next Generation Woes

    Actually, I was looking at crucial.com, and it seems that for DDR2, 400 is PC3200 (same as DDR1), 533 is PC4200 and 667 is PC5300. So if dual channel can be used for DDR2, a 533 is actually faster than the P4 can handle, no? Is this right?

    Canon i960 - $129.99 Clearance at Best Buy

    Actually this has nothing to do with the printer. It's the paper that you use. With one paper, a little drop causes the ink to run. With another paper, I can leave it under the tap while vigorously rubbing it under the water with my finger within less than a minute of printing w/ very minimal...
