    Intel’s Price Reduction on July 22

    E4500 looks like the sweet spot for price and performance. That 11x multi will work wonders on a cheap Asrock 4CoreDual.

    7600GT Overclocks

    I have an Xpertvision 7600GT PCI-E @ 700/1650 plus another Xpertvision 7600GS AGP @ 725/1600 (default clocks are 400/1000). I thought my GT overclocked well until I got the GS. Absolutely stonking cards for the money.

    r600 on agp.

    AGP was superceded far too soon. Only current top spec NVidia 8800's require more bandwidth than AGP can offer. Why change your to PCI-E when AGP offers ample performance for all but the hardcore gamers and benchmark addicts?

    Component Out from 7600GT

    The 7600GT will output 480i/p 576i/p 720p and 1080i via it's component dongle. 720p (1280x720) will be the best resolution for your tv. How much it overscans, and how good the image quality are, is dependent on your tv. I use 720p on my Panasonic Plasma which has a native 1024x768 resolution...

    Which is the best of these 2 old school cards?

    x800xt is still capable of playing moden games. It is about 25% more powerful than the x850pro.

    Xbox360 vs BFG Geforce 8800 GTS ?

    The XBOX360 is the better buy. Three years from now 8xxx cards will struggle to play new games at reasonable resolutions. The XBOX360 will keep on going. PC hardware is forever trying to catch up with software. With consoles the software is forever being deleloped to get the best out of the...

    Ordered operton165, arctic silver?

    I run an Opty 165 @ 2.9GHz (default volts) in a Shuttle SN95G5v2. I also have two 7200rpm hdd's, DVD burner, X800XTPE, TV card and 2GB RAM in there. It all runs fine on a 240W PSU. PS. I use clockgen to get past the Shuttles 280fsb bios limitation.

    Socket 939: Dead or alive?.....

    I put my socket939 X2 3800 up for sale on an auction site a few days ago and expected to get around £70 for it. With over a day left to go bidding has now reached £112, and over 500 people have viewed it. I guess AMD underestimated the demand for this socket. Nobody will migrate from 939 to...

    A64 4000 to an OPTY 165 or 170?

    If you are desperate for a good Opty 165 (which OcUK no longer stock), perform a search on a few well known price comparission sites and I am sure my supplier will pop up. They currently show 40 odd in stock. Most, if not all of recent Opty's from them have reached 2.8GHz and beyond.

    A64 4000 to an OPTY 165 or 170?

    One is used in my Shuttle and the other was put into a system I built for my brother last week.

    A64 4000 to an OPTY 165 or 170?

    I have bought 2 Opty 165's in the last month. Both were CCBBE stepping with one being wk 0615 and the other 0616. The 1st does 2.9GHz on stock volts and other did 2.8 at stock. I see no real point in going for a 170 or 175 because A64's work very well with dividers.

    Socket 939: Dead or alive?.....

    There are very few differences (if any) between 939 and AM2, other than the memory interface.

    Worth getting AMD Opteron 175 Dual Core for gaming?

    Good stepping 165's are available from the UK new for less than £100 if you look hard enough. I have just built a system for my brother that reached almost 3GHz on stock volts. His stepping was CBBEE 0616 xxxx - cannot remeber the end. Shame OcUK cannot source any ATM.

    C2D v X2 = Not as good as you think?

    Why on earth would they do that? Who pays attention to benchmarks anyway? :D

    Socket 939: Dead or alive?.....

    There are two reasons I have not upgraded my skt939 AGP system. 1). Faster AMD chips require a complete new system. 2). Faster and better Conroe systems reqire a complete new system. Hmm, maybe that's only one reason but if it is going to cost me £500 to inrease my system performance by...

    Spectaculate me a camera (circa £300) purdy please

    I had a 350D for a week and then exchanged it for a D50. The Canon was just too small for my hands and build quality was not very good. The D50 is a great budget DSLR.
