    Budget upgrade challenge

    What exactly are you arguing? My post just explained that the t-bird ran hotter because it had a small transfer surface compared to the newer chips that have similar power draw and overall thermal output. (Where exactly did you take this into account as you mention in your post) Geee... lets...

    Budget upgrade challenge

    Remember that the power draw and total thermal output of a CPU does not necessarily correspond directly to the temperature that the CPU will run at. Intel's heat spreaders and AMD's newer chips' larger die sizes mean that they will run cooler than the t-bird given the same thermal output.

    MP3 portable players

    i've used an iPod and i thought the demo model was a fabulous little piece of hardware. Now that I know that Apple aparently has put little effort or care into prodcucing workable software for the iPod I don't think I shall even consider it. My biggest complaint about input/output devices is...

    A Fun Little Flash Game

    It has already been explained. You have to aim from the tee to the entrance of the area surrounding the hole. If you practice (or get lucky) you can hit the ball in there and it will bouce around towards the hole. I think it's even possible to get a "hole in 1" on that hole(I've gotten close).

    How does the toolbox work?

    Since it's a tool box I don't know if we should include things like drivers (detonators, 4-in-1's, etc). First, these things are usually fairly large. Second, they are updated frequently. And third there are places like driverguide, guru3d, and viahardware that do a much better job of staying...

    If the retail HSF that came with my Duron 1.3 is any indication, then I would say the speeze is almost certainly quieter than the retail... maybe not in a dB way of measurement, but in overall pitch and listenability the speeze is much easier to get along with.

I thought it had gone bad and through it out... the problem was probably actually the motherboard (abit with bad caps).. the...

    Best software to rip DVD to disk.

    hmm.. perhaps you have to select a stream/format from the audio menu in DVD2AVI... I always select audio track 1(it seems i never have to select the audio format)... but that may just be because I only play region 1 or region free disks... not sure what kind of audio you have on your specific...
