I had the same question a long time ago. And posted about it on HWF, you can find the link here But here's the summary from my findings, The 6800 has more pipelines than the 6600. Although the 6600 has higher clock speeds, the lack of pipelines will make it perform less than the 6800 card...

Thanks for the info on Skype Iwmpop. SkypeOut has never been free here in the Netherlands, I was afraid Skype itself would become a paid program. Thank god that's not the case. Skype to Skype will remain free. As long as you meet the minimum requirements for Skype you should be ok. Since...

Iwmpop, thanks for putting so much trust in me, kdm428 who started this thread never replied to my post so I don't actually know if my advice worked for him, too bad. If you install a USB 2.0 ( The "High speed USB connections"" you are referring to ) into a normal 1.1 USB port, windows XP...

Hmm, I used to believe FF VII was the greatest rpg of all, but after I tried playing it I got bored quickly, I guess I'm spoiled by it's successor on the PS2 FF X. FF IX is really nice, I completed it multiple times. Although I never managed to get to the "Room of Emptiness" in time to get...

It's a good mid-range videocard although it doesn't perform a lot better than the same card with 256Mb memory. For around 100 euro's it's a good deal, you didn't waste your money. Btw; Are you serious about those CPU temperatures? Those are way too high! You should invest some of the money...

Here's a nice website, it's from a hobbyist who built a pc into a car. Very simple but some of the components might cost more than you'd want to invest. This guy even made a whole blog about building a car pc into his Grand Cherokee. Same thing has to be said about the components prices...

My blue Asus Vento 3600 or "What Darth Vaders coffee machine would look like" People either love it, or hate it. I love it, it's got a vertical opening door which is a little flimsy but covers the cd / dvd bays nicely. I don't mind having to open and close it everytime. Other users seem...

Everytime We Say Goodbey Another "Y" What'll you guys come up with now? :D

After having looked at various online hardware retailers I still can't advise you very well on a card, I played Oblivion on 1024*768 with a XFX Geforce 6800 256Mb once, and wasn't satisfied with how the game ran back then, but that's all about personal demands; lot's of eye-candy or barely...

What games are you planning on playing? As most games have different hardware requirements. If you're thinking about games like Oblivion you'll need a pretty good card, which is expensive. Other games like Half Life 2 and Doom 3 aren't that demanding and will run nicely on older high end...

Nvidia's SLI Zone hosts a beta driver to try which supports quad SLI. Quad SLI sounds great, but a lot like overkill to me, it's meant for playing games on Ultra-high resolutions and widescreen 16:10 modes (2560x1600, 1920x1200, and 1680x1050 resolutions) while maintaining high fps.

It's been a pleasure, good that sorted it out. Greetings, Marcus

The Playstation 2 was really expensive when it came out also costed around 500 euro here (recalculated, it used to be in guilders back then) Prices dropped not long after it's release though, within 2-3 months already I believe. But it's sad that Sony hasn't learned a lesson from the past...

First, welcome to HWF.com Imbigbear, It's possible you've got infected with a virus, sasses.exe or variants of that wormvirus caused systems to reboot after 30 seconds, further damage a virus can do is also delete files from your harddrive. Try booting windows into safe mode; to get XP...

Y2K, Shutdown detected I made it a link, so you can verify the existence of that movie, nobody probably heard about it.

Depending on your budget, I'd say you should look for a better videocard, 128 MB videomemory is a bit low these days. An 7800GS series card would be the fastest gpu available you can get for an agp motherboard. My brother recently purchased a XFX 7800GS for a P4 3.0 GHz system and he's very...
