Currently running an e6600 together with an gigabyte ds3. Standard Vcore is 1,325. System is dual prime stable (12h) at 1,28V (2400MHz). Since im pushing my system in terms of airflow, TAT reported load temps of about 72-73C at stock voltage. However, after the undervolting manouver, im currently at...

Jepp, the MSI 7900gs is passive and hdcp-ready.

Starting to appear in the retail channels up here in sweden...

I recently assembled my new amd64 rig with the MSI K8N NEO PLATINUM. Cool and quiet is working, although Im using two separate ddr400 dimm's! Just like the picture from anandtech suggests, there's no undervolting options in bios. I myself use clockgen instead. I wanted to comment on amd's install in...

hi matt-man!

As Im writing this my K8N neo platinum is reporting a speed of 1000mhz 5x mult, all I´ve done is enabled it in the bios and set power management in controlopanel to minimal. Works like a charm!

The review over at tomshardware.com just cracked me up, signaling something of a demise for the gigahertz race: "The threshold temperature is 72.8° C for the 3.4-GHz and 3.6-GHz versions, and believe me, using the Intel boxed cooler will lead you straight to that limit. As a result of that, we decid...

I used to have an p2 450 running fanless in my computer with a medium sized heatsink. Although i didn't have a case fan, only my zalman psu, temps would idle at around 48 degrees. Now, this wasen't a problem while doing adenery stuff like surfing and wordprocessing, but soon as I got around to putti...

Scotch connectors sure is an alternative, just have to find them here in Sweden. But im really intrested an answe...

Hi everyone! I finnaly deceided on modding my zalman psu(300-APF). I only use my computer as a mp3 jukebox, making excessive cpu power useless: Duron 750 ge4 mx420 barracuda V So I thought, lets mod this bastard with a papst 12db(not even close, but hey, pretty silent). Opened it up only to find tha...

The Sony DRU 510 is said to be very quiet. It is highly recommended in this area, over at avsforum.com(htpc forum) it's number one!

Great news Al!!!

So it is completely silent? the nirvana of silent computers...ahh..finaly

Just wanted to know: what is the specs of your current pc? what happens when you push the pc really hard, does the psu heatsink become so hot it hurts upon touching it??

thx

Hey there james! My brother recently bought a used computer featuring a p3 667. Well, to put it simple, he simply settled for passive cooling of the processor. I've seen the heatsink and it's just a funny locking aluminium thing, nothing speciell, and hes computer runs fine....Now maybe my brother d...

Some answears: Hifi DAC's in generall are pretty universal, they are suppose to do one thing and they do it with great results. As far as I know, there are two digital line in connectors, toslink and s/pdif. Output is made up of two rca connectors. All external dac's basically looks like this. These...

Hey there!! Im a student sitting on top of 100mbit line so I new from the start that mp3 and other audio formats were going to be an essential part of my hifi-system. With this in mind I started thinking about how I could achieve the results I wanted. Simply put, the D\A- conveters sitting inside mo...

Well well , some questions for ya! 1. High frequency buzz? Doesnt sound good at all, was it annoying? I mea...

Expensive yes, however, adding things togheter ( vfd display=50$, ir reception=dunno really, normal case= 60$) Im paying around 130$ for the design. Sounds ok for me. Also, this aint a case you can get hold of easily( atleast in sweden, in the states there prob aint a probl.), its produced in korea ...

Im finnaly getting the case I want: http://www.heimkino.at/images/produktfotos/htpcprospekt.jpg Now I dont plan on using this as a home theater pc( have to be almost dead silent to work), but would like it to be reasonably quiet. I will be hooking it up to my stereo system using a high quality dac. ...

hello there, im a new user from sweden who is quite familiar with mikrodatorn and PC för alla.... <br> <br>Both magz are very serious, with mikrodatorn being my favourite. PC för alla is more mainstream but mikro is positioned as more of a " tech" oriented rescouce. I would acctually go0 as far as s...
