<0> oh
<1> any good intel processors lately?
<1> and what's a good dual core AMD now?
<2> do you need thremal compound for an athlon XP 2500?
<3> uh
<3> Quant AMD Athlon 64 X2 any speed
<3> Athlon 64 X2 4800+
<3>
<4> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16842101138
<4> Do these things include the monitor
<4> Like What is it with a 350W computer and a Monitor
<4> wwhat do most CRT monitors run at?
<5> im just wonder ... how is a monitor going to affect the wattage you need? i mean it's pluged into the wall
<3> he's asking about the amount of protection
<6> some very cheap power supplies also have a connection on the rear to connect a monitor to
<6> and yes you can plug your monitor into one of those aswell
<6> the amount of wattage they use depends entirely on what sort of monitor
<6> lcd's use far less wattage
<6> crt's vary greatly..
<7> would this work with an amd cpu? http://supercheappc.biz/site/product_info.php?products_id=1235
<8> until the cheap PC explodes, yes
<8> I mean PS
<7> ok... thanks
<8> np
<0> oh
<9> hi friends
<10> lololol
<10> ill give that psu a day
<11> am looking for offline newsgrup reader
<12> hey...dell laptop, broken cdrom drive, i put another cdrom drive from a similar model laptop...now it wont even turn on, wtf?
<13> is the best way to improve the speed of windowsxp starting up getting a faster HD? like a raid 5 system?
<2> for the front panel USB, I have 8 wires but on the mobo, I have 9 pins, would this work?
<14> heh
<2> get more ram
<14> SvX: a raid 5 would be alittle extreme for booting an xp box
<13> I have 2 single core opterons on my dual socket 940 with 2gb of ecc reg ddr400 PC3200 ram.
<15> yes?
<15> why in da fkucz do you need raid 5?
<13> and my hd's are 7200 rpm
<14> faster rpms will make it boot faster
<12> lol
<14> get some scsi 15k rpms
<12> you ****ing idiot
<15> no
<15> ****ing ****
<15> im saying WHY
<15> wait and extra 10 seconds
<12> someone had to say it
<13> I think its cuz I need to defrag my drives
<16> improve windows bootime and raid ? are you stupid, raid bios will slow the whole process down no matter how fast your disks are
<12> who defrags anymre?
<7> hey, is elixir ram known to be bad or anything?
<16> a single should be faster in random access than most raid arrays
<16> Lannister: actually i defrag whenever my screenscaver comes on
<12> i dont think it matters much
<12> probably puts hella wear on your drive
<16> thats a myth
<15> um
<15> everyone defrags
<15> dumb***
<12> i dont
<12> and my computer isnt slow
<15> k thats great
<15> good for you
<16> fragmentation eats away performance
<12> linux users dont defrag
<12> :-p
<15> actually they do
<15> just not retarded ones
<12> the linux filesystem doesnt fragment
<15> yea linux users are too good for file fragments
<16> linux users cant do anything fun
<16> oh ****! linux zero windows 1000
<17> Hi, What`s default temp on cpu`s? The lower the better?
<18> no dude
<18> the higher the better!
<7> my bios tells me mine is 80C, but I've been using it for two years without any problem, and only bothered to check yesterday. hmmm
<19> I'm interested in the Asus A8N-VM (CSM) for an audio workstation. It looks like a great motherboard for me, but it is micro-atx and I plan to put it in an antec case. Am I missing something about this board (e.g. it's useless except for compact media PCs)?
<20> ?'
<13> so you guys agree that with my dual opterons and 2gb of ram, the most likely to boost the speed of loading the os and loading programs would be the HD?
<20> is that a serious question?
<13> yes
<0> oh
<11> what's a good PC hardware news site
<18> tomshardware.com!
<18> it's #1
<11> Balistyx OTHER
<18> tomshardware.com!
<18> it's #1
<21> tomshardware.com is biased
<11> other than toms
<21> google knows
<11> i want a good review site
<11> google will give me too many bad sites
<22> do all PSU's have short circuit protection? or only recent ones?
<11> fuse?
<21> that depends entirely on how cheap it is
<19> Trying again (irc server split off) - I'm interested in the Asus A8N-VM (CSM) for an audio workstation. It looks like a great motherboard for me, but it is micro-atx and I plan to put it in an antec case. Am I missing something about this board (e.g. it's useless except for compact media PCs)?
<23> !commands
<23> im having a rather annoying issue with my pc which I am sort of at a loss as to why its going on... anyone here want to spare a few mins and help me out
<11> just say it
<24> it
<23> k my computers been restarting whenever i boot it up from say being off all night, also sometimes it will boot al the way into windows and then once i go to start running apps the screen flashes black then goes back then flashes again the the pc reboots
<23> i have changed the power supply thinking this would be it.. also have ran several diagnos and got nothing
<21> pfft
<21> it's probably windows
<11> life is complicated
<2> how can I find quiet PSU's?
<23> Sh4dowcat i've reformatted my HD and re-installed windows over 7 times since this issue has been going on
<16> zalman makes a queit PSU, i believe antec might have one and silenx , just look for a p***ivly cooled one
<25> jamrock, what type of cpu?
<23> amd athlon 1.5
<25> what does the temp get too before it shuts down?
<4> Hrm I am wondering .. IF I can get a program where I can move Fragments on the HD to all one SIDE .. so that i take up FULL Sectors
<23> no idea... i cant get into the bios to check the temp because it shuts down to fast... but even with that it will shut down if i havent used my computer for a few days and its usually pretty cool in my house
<26> hi. i'm looking to buy a case and old Coolermaster stacker STC-T01 seems very interesting, mainly because of ability to store a lot of hard drives (with all of them being cooled). are there any other cases i should look into with same characteristic?
<27> i own that one and its pretty nice
<27> but its really heavy
<26> yeah. i wanted to buy it like a year and half ago but didn't, now i don't know if anything better came along
<26> weight isn't a problem
<25> jamrock, have you looked at the mobo for any buldging/busted caps?
<26> datil got any other complaints about it besides weight?
<27> nope, its really great, big and with decent cooling
<27> supports btx also
<26> yeah
<27> i recommend buying the stacker 3in4 hard drive module if you plan on using more than 3 hdd`s
<26> yes, I'll buy 2
<27> case comes with just one
<26> I got 4 drives
<26> more in future maybe
<27> yeah, then its what you`re looking for =)
<26> it was an awesome idea, to cool 3 drives with just 1 fan
<26> how many do you have?
<27> just the one that came with it (3 hdds)
<26> i mean how many hdds
<23> dlion: yeah i just looked on the motherboard for anything that looked broken/missing/ and nothing at all... maybe i should just get a new mobo haha just start replacing everything till its fixed
<27> 3
<26> and they sufficiently cooled with one fan?
<26> they're
<27> indeed.. i first had the cage with the fan disabled and my hdds were at ~36C
<27> i enabled the fan later and it dropped to 27C
<26> sweet
<27> those 120mm fans are really quiet, also the top case one which is 80mm i think.. if it wasn`t for my cooler everything would be damn silent
<26> i have 2 zalman coolers, they're pretty quiet. and computer is in the hall next to my room, so I'm not worried about noise
<27> heh, i considered zalman coolers too.. just running stock 775 heatsink
<26> they are awesome, when set to low rpm i can't hear the fans from hdds
<27> heh
<26> i had it in my room, until i started adding more drives
<26> just noticed there is an successor, Cooler Master Stacker 830
<27> yes, i just didnt like the design
<25> anyone have an a8n32?
