    Asus did me

    Nope, it engulfs it. I can hardly get anything into the SECOND PCI slot - that's how big it is. Think X1800XT on a pie diet.

    Asus did me

    I bought a new Asus EN8800GT for a new build for a Christmas present for my cousin. Anyway it was the one with the Company of Hero's opposing forces design. Every report/review I have ever read on the card states it is a single slot soloution with the COH design on the cooler like this...

    PC shuts down

    Yes but at least it has good onboard audio! No, seriously it is annoying, more so since it won't reboot immediatley after a shutdown. I am going to buy a 750 Winpower PSU and see if that cures it. I have installed an uptime gadget in Windows XP sidebar to see if it is hourly or what not it...

    PC shuts down

    I was writing a letter when it shut down. The temps seem ok, see attached pic, they don't deviate much from as they are now.

    PC shuts down

    E2140 to E6300

    Hello, my E2140 is running at 2.8 gig. Is it worth getting an E6300 as they clock just as well, a mate bought a quad core and offered me the 6300 for £30. Is it worth it just to get the extra 1 meg level 2 cache, or should I stick with what I have? Thanks.

    New monitor question

    I am thinking of getting a new monitor, this one from Overclockers http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-008-BE&groupid=703&catid=17&subcat=949 My graphics card is an 8800gt gainward and I want to use the DVI port. What is HDCP? does it mean I can't watch my DIVX films...

    Antec 380W Earthwatts

    Thinking of getting this power supply to replace the 450W EZCOOL that is currently in my case. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-085-AN&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=103 I have an F-190HD Fatal1ty motherboard and an E2140 overclocked to 350FSB (2.8 gig) and 1 HD 400...

    Excellent service from Overclockers

    Today I rang the store at 10am to enquire about 8800GT cards. None had arrived in and so I thought I'd try after my lunch-break at work. I phoned and spoke to 'Tom' who said they had 10 delivered and they went live half an hour ago and there was 3 left. A work colleague who owed me a favour...

    IS AGP DEAD?

    Yep, I've been guilty of that!

    Crysis slow on 8800GT

    Perhaps it is optimised for ATI hardware? on my 2900GT it runs as smooth as anything 1440x990 on high. Vista 32bit.

    BFG returns

    Update on this, BFG are brilliant. My friend received a brand new card from BFG today. 8600GTS OC. The only difference was it arrived in a plain white box and not the full printed retail one, still, he's happy as Larry!

    2900GT

    PSU question

    I bought a new case with an EZCOOL 450W PSU in and am wondering about the quality of it. I have an E2140 with AA Fatal1ty F190-HD motherboard and 1xHD and 1xDVDRW, Gpu is a Radeon 2900GT. Overclockers don't appear to stock the PSU, whether that's because EZCOOL are crap or because they can't...

    2900GT

    Not sure what that is Willhub?, Scougar I'll give it a go with the core to see what happens. I might increase the ram as well, just to see what it maxes out at. If I can break the 8.5K barrier on 06, I'll be happy!
