I always wanted my grandad's Jaguar XJS, he said I could have it when I'm 21 (but has since got rid of it for an XK8 :() Jaguar XJS My brother used to be crazy about Robin Reliants (the one Mr. Bean always crashes into), this was at the age of about 2 or 3 :) Robin Reliant

I don't really see a point in changing to Core 2 Duo with a system like that. Yes it will give a boost in performance, but you may as well wait a while until you actually need a new PC. The processor you have now is still great, and I doubt you could justify spending several hundred dollars on a...

Some motherboards will support SLI while others support Crossfire. So if you want to run dual graphics cards it could be an issue, other than that you just need a PCIe x16 slot.

Well you're right with that, I did used to have Ubuntu as well as XP on my PC, but Windows is just so much more convenient, don't really have the time to be getting used to Linux and using Windows applications on it. As for this PC we are talking about, if you go for Core 2 Duo (recommended as...

Yeah I dont think you could use the stock intel fan....

Well lets not get into a Linux vs. Windows discussion here, in the end it's up to the user to make the decision. pyromast, I would certainly look at the option of using an Intel Core 2 Duo, you can pick an E6300 up for around the same price as the AMD Athlon 4200+ and it will beat the socks off it.

That is a good build yes. Two things: a) are you going to be overclocking? If not there is no need for the Zalman coolers, the stock cooling will do fine - this will save you a little money which you may be able to put elsewhere. b) PSU, your power supply is included with your case - this is not...

I suppose it could even be the power supply. But yes, try another monitor if you haven't already.

The X1900XTs are great cards, I would definately go with one of them over the 7900GT. They provide the best performance from a single card (i.e. not two cards in crossfire or SLi) in oblivion in benchmarks I have seen. If you can afford it, I would go with one of them. X1900XT - £159.98 on...

Well Linux has its pluses, but Windows has the larger market share by far, therefore you will have a hard time finding programs and games to run on linux. I stick to Windows for this reason, yes its unreliable, yes it has security issues, but without windows I can't play games and use the...

I did exactly that, cost me twenty squid though :(

I'll have a look into them. This is an image Asus's AI Booster program, tells you temperature, fsb, etc. I've got the CPU at low 50s idle, but this is too high really.

The 6600GTs are good cards, not high-end but they will give you pretty decent performance in most games.

I would check the Acer laptops. My friend got one in the US for $1,000 Specs: Core Duo T2300 (1.66GHz x 2) 2GB RAM DDR2-533 ATi Mobility X1400 120GB SATA Not sure what the prices would be like in Canada, but $1,000 is very cheap for that.

I've just fitted a new PSU into my system and it's now working very stable, and I am able to overclock my CPU (Pentium D 805 2.66GHz) to 4.00GHz. When idle, the temperature is around 51*C, when both cores are at 100% load the CPU gets to 68*C or so and then crashes (PC Mark is the only...

I just managed to get myself a Razer gaming mouse (2000DPI) (RAZER BOOMSLANG) for £6.59 on ebay :D I consider that a pretty decent buy. I'm currently using some dell optical mouse, doesn't cut it for games. I love living back in England and being able to use eBay :)

Wow, very sexy that is.

Does the splash screen look like a graphical error? Or does it look as though it has been changed/edited? Becuase it could be the graphics card playing up. Yeah, try TuneUp, its a great program and they give you a full version for a 30-day trial.

That detention letter is the best, haha :D Love it

Nobody have any ideas regarding this? :(
