Well my PSU has gone and fried my mobo. Its was an Asus P5K ws pro. It needs replacing, I want to upgrade the mobo to something better keeping the rest of the components the same. If I stick with Asus will I have a problem installing the hdd with the OS as the board will need different chipset...

Thanks for the replies people.

I have this memory Corsair 4GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-8500C5 TwinX (2x2GB) in my system at the moment and am very happy with it. I need to add another 4GB of memory and was wondering if I could add a different brand. I dont want to spend 90 odd pounds when I can get very similar ram for half...

Its easy to set up the service on Vista, the problem is it doesn't work.

If your prefernce is for free then go with the best on offer, currently Avira.

72 quid, its the 640 mb one that matches the one I already have. I love the bay, have had some real bargains in the past on everything from cofee tables to dishwashers.

I wont go into the thermodynamics but needless to say I am a sceptic and have come to my conclusions by trial and error. I have been watercooling computers for quite a while, in fact years. There are one or two people that I respect in this field and so I do not tread on any toes at Overclockers...

Not true, max flow rate is after pump, most cpu blocks are impingment blocks, therefore, work best after pump. Res or T bar creates disturbance in the fluid and works best when not behind the rad, as this reduces rad efficiency. CPU is generally the most overclocked component in the loop...

With respect I do not rate the rad, cpu block or pump. The rad will not give you the flowrate you will need to cool an overclocked chip and gpu, the pump is not powerful enough and your block is near bottom of the pile for cooling efficiency. Would not advise to buy unless you just want a quiet...

I wouldnt worry to much Rich I'm off on business for a week so have switched the farm off. Will be intermittent at best to be honest as I don't like leaving machines on at night (must be my age) as I'm paranoid about fires with the kids in the house. Still, just bought another 8800 gts for my...

Forget wireless think HDMI goodness for all your consoles and stuff. Sony HTSS1300 3 HDMI in one out.

It is not possible to cool tri sli and a cpu on one loop. The rads and pump you have chosen are sub standard and are not worthy of your components. If you have never watercooled before then I would ditch the idea as the money you would need to spend for quality components would be...

Asus P5K premium. Will hit 4 Gb but has to go to insane volts after 470 fsb (CPU limited) Is currently running at stock volts 3.65 (not quite true as overvolts very slightly, cpu VID 1.2, currently 1.225) 32 degrees fully loaded under water. The board was brought out to celebrate Asus's 18th...

Because I dont want the hassle of setting up the linux clients. I get between 2500 and 3500 ppd depending on project using wsmp on a q9450 @ 3.6 ghz, I know its not perfect but I WANT the wsmp client., thats why I started this thread.

Same things been happeneing to me of late which leads me to believe a patch has caused it, all my hardware is stable and in perfect working order. Only IE effected.

Storm block is not better than an Apogee on a quad, the storms footprint is tiny and flow rate is severely restricted. Worked well on dual cores because the competition was rubbish at the time. Apogee has a larger footprint (for quads) and flowrate is very good compared to the Storm. As for...

Same here, 180.60 are much better for me.

...is there a benefit of running two of these or it it just a case of dimishing returns?

Well have now uploaded some clients, have a 8800 gts giving me 4000 approx and a few quads running smp, so am now hitting 10,000 ppd. Cannot be bothered clocking them as 2 are in htpc machines and I can do without the noise. Might buy a 4870 for the crack but hardly play games anymore, may get...
