I have the P5N-D and run 9600gt in SLI, I have also overclocked my e8200 to 3.4ghz. For the board has been working absoloutly fine since I got it. But the vdroop when overclocking is larger than I would expect it to be, and I have an unidentified piece of hardware shown in device manager on...

I have tversity setup streaming my music and videos to other PCs and my xbox 360. It works fine on the 360 and my vista laptop. But I cannot make wmp in xp find it. Even when trying to add the music files manually it dosen't work because it won't see the tversity server on the network. I know...

I have a scratched call of duty four disc, I can sometimes get to multiplayer games, and cannot play single player or some multiplayer maps. If I download call of duty four onto my hard drive from my friend's disc, can I then play it fully by using my disc to start it up as well as the...

If they are the same architecture, than a higher frequency processor will be faster.

Um the link says unavaible. But the cheapest 1066mhz ram(highest speed 920 supports) I can find is The Kingston valueram, may not be pretty but they do have lifetime warranties

I was looking at how much it would roughly to cost to upgrade to an i7 system using the lowest new i7 processor(920). And when looking at the ddr3-1066 memory(920 can only support up to that) I started to wonder was is it worth the extra money to get 3gb of ram. I know that the difference...

Thanks for your advice, tough in the end I went for this case, as I am getting most of my other components from there it improves on shipping and the compucases you selected were around the same price on different uk sites.

Sorry I should of mentioned it was for an ATX motherboard.

I'm looking for a cheap case to build a low end pc. It's only going to be used for internet browsing, low end games and watching movies. It's never going to be overclocked. I have a processor already (e8200), and I will add a low end graphics(such as an nvidia 8400gs). But the only cases I've...

I need a new quieter cpu cooler, my akasa one(AK-961) is driving me up the wall, and I wanted to know the sound differences between the Artic Cooling Freezer XTREME and Freezer 7 Pro. The artic cooling website gives the Freezer XTREME a sound score of 0.5 and the Freezer 7 Pro a score of 0.9...

This happened to me when I didn't install the drivers for my video cards. Do you have any information about your pc which could point to what graphics card you are using?

Another thought: I want to get a processor that I won't need to upgrade again in the next couple of years. Would I be better going for e8600 or Q9550/9650? I want to be able to play new computer games, and I do a bit of video transcoding to my 360 and burning to dvds.

This link shows that the i7 processors won't be able to use any of the high performance DDR3 ram over voltges of 1.7. I'm thinking that most of the people who would buy an i7 processor straight away will be looking to buy the best and probably overclock, and therefore have high performance ram...

With the new i7 processors coming out in october, can anyone give a good estimate of how much the existing core 2 duos will drop, if they will drop at all. As I am thinking of buying either a Q9550 or a Q9650, but need to now if it's worth waiting for a couple of months to get a better price.

You forgot f12 :)
