A 7900GT coming in at just over £130 That's the sort of price you normally pay for the GS. XFX 7900GT

I suppose if you wanted to kill it. Or if you wanted to make it warmer. So, no other reason really. Just don't overvolt too far! You may damage it.

Good news for tree-huggers then. As for gamers and the average PC user, I'm sure that extra 7 watts means very little.

Downloading music is equal to stealing. It's not about "i dont care if people think its stealing." If you walk into a shop, pick up a CD and walk out without paying, you are stealing. If you go onto limewire and download a CD to your hard drive, you are stealing. Can't you see the link? You...

I'm searching for a cooler which will fit into a media center case. Case: Antec NSK2400 MATX I may go with a Core 2 Duo CPU or an AMD Athlon 64 (939 or even X2). I'm mainly looking for a 939 cooler, as the 3700+ San Diego is only £50 on ebuyer when OEM. Preferably, the cooler should be...

I just got WoW last wednesday. I've played it non-stop, addicted already. The game is truly amazing, I used to have a strange hatred for the game, which I had previously never played.

Im sure the extremes (<0*C and 90*C) won't do it any good. Is there a sticker on it or anything which displays the storage temperature?

Thanks a lot mate, I'll look at all of these tomorrow, I also found this: Logitech 2400 Desktop 2.4ghz Cordless Keyboard And Optical 1000dpi Mouse - Usb @ £40.34 I need to make sure it will reach to where the user will be sitting.

I found some information about it on Microsoft's site. So based on that, I need to go bluetooth if I want more than 6 foot range. * This seems to fit my needs: Pilot Laser Wireless Desktop

Actually I can probably convince him based on the fact that I'm including the keyboard, mouse and wireless network adapter. So this system is good. But. How far do these keyboards and mice tend to work from the PC? I would be looking for over 5m if possible you see.

That takes me to £536.83. I'll have to play around with it and get the price lower.

I thought about a 250GB HDD and I like the thought, I have a 250GB HDD myself and I don't use much of it. But I suppose we would use a lot on a media centre. Only thing is it eats away at the budget for a graphics card. My dad won't go over £500, he doesn't think a fantastic graphics card is...

I have windows media player 11 too. But I have an iPod and when I tried putting songs on it from WMP it didn't work. So my Itunes library is all organised and I don't want to be messing around switching between the two. And I will never buy music on iTunes again, it's damn outrageous that they...

Im building a media centre PC as my dad wants to be able to use the PC on one of our new HD TV screens we are getting. I've been thinking about what to get for the system. Budget: £500 He said that he doesn't need a good graphics card for games, but I'm building the machine so it's not going to...

OFF TOPIC: The worst thing is when you put a refresh rate that's too high in a pc game. For example in the graphics settings put a refresh rate of 75 on a CRT monitor which will only support 60Hz. Couldn't work out how to get the game to work since every time the game booted up my screen refused...

Yea, he has an older one, I have the newest and it's fine. The early 7.x.x.x releases really didn't like my system.

Go for it now, in my opinion. If you decide to "wait" for something, by the time it comes out there will be something else to wait for. Computer technology moves so quickly that there is always something new and improved coming out.

With RivaTuner I can't get past 570MHz / 1102MHz

I have the same clock speeds on my 6600GT to Matt, using the nVidia overclocking function I can get it just past 550MHz and 1100MHz. I haven't tried in RivaTuner. My 6600GT runs in the mid 40s normally when I'm in a game. So I doubt I need extra cooling. P.S. My friend has the same laptop as...

I don't think the CPU has degraded, I have only had it since July and had a generic power supply, which has degraded (tested it on my brother's computer (identical to mine) and found that it can't overclock to 4.00GHz). The random power-offs have stopped, but it seems to be an issue with iTunes...
