    A more silent computer

    On my A7V266 I removed the heatsink and fan and used Arctic Silver epoxy glue to stick a couple of Thermaltake's blue RAM sinks to the northbridge. Check out the photo: www.rotting-energy.net/Forums/interior.jpg www.rotting-energy.net/Forums/tt.jpg (Ignore the credit card - I always have it...

    Yep, just ordered another load of stuff to get it quieter! What noise insulation material are you using? Right now I've got my XP1800 running at stock speed, with a Zalman copper flower on it, fan at the lowest speed, an 80Gb Barracuda and a 40gb D740X, just ordered a WD800JB to replace the...

    LOL Not at all surprised. Rather than being happy that the second leader of the 17N terrorist group turned himself in (stupid move - they weren't gonna catch him otherwise), they waste time with stuff like this. Luckily I'm leaving Greece on Saturday. Going back to the UK where I have both...

    Maxtor Reduces Warranty to 1 Year

    Ridiculous! I don't really mind the 1 year warranty as such since thats more or less how long I keep most drives, but it might indicate their quality/reliability will go down too and that is a no-no... apart from the fact that no one will want to buy a drive off me once I'm done with it without...

    The GE mice are probably for the poor fools that have their Compaq etc box's mouse fail and go buy it thinking "its GE, can't be bad" and then proceed to pay $100 for it. :lol:

    Third generation Cheetah review up at SR...

    PNG would be smaller than the GIF if they reduced it to 256 colours. But the thing is that JPEG works fine for this use. I'm a fan of PNG, but unless there is a reason to want lossless quality for that photo then I don't see the point, also if using an earlier version of photoshop to save the...

    Third generation Cheetah review up at SR...

    I've advised them to use JPG rather than PNG for the drive photos by email and from the feedback section of the forum but they don't seem to care - in typical SR style, I didn't even recieve a reply... :evil:

    P5-133XL has suffered a stroke and is not expected to live.

    Somehow I didn't think it was the computer, but I thought (after seeing you as the author) that it was just a joke. I thought "nah, can't be". I know if I had a stroke and was dying, last thing I'd be doing would be to sit here posting (yes really)!

    P4 Celerons

    The later ones based on Tualatin had 256k cache and good performers... unlike the P4 Celerons. The others also had a lower bus speed (66 or 100MHz) than the P3.

    Compatibility problem between Voodoo3 PCI and K6-2 system

    no heatsink on a V3?? That might be the problem by itself... All voodoo 3's I've seen (2000 included) have had a heatsink but have overheated anyway - they get extremely hot and smelly some times (I've seen a melted PCI slot once on an old Pentium system...)

    Actually don't laugh but its off road abilities are enough to shame probably every other off road SUV built except for a handful (hummer, land rover, landcruiser etc), and it costs around $8000! Obviously of anything off road its horrible, slow, truckulent and unreliable but its actually not...

    my first website :)

    I've never driven, let alone been in one but the fact that everyone still raves on about them, the fact that they are still used for rallying even today, and the fact that my fastest lap times on the Colin MacRae 2 game are all set with a Mini Cooper S is enough to convince me.
