Re: Please help with an upgrade for my Media Center PC?
So can't you use some other player software than PDVD to play the videos? Maybe some open source solution. User who paid for the content, should not have to deal with DRM-caused troubles. I know it is stupid, though there only seems to be two players (PDVD/TMT) that play Blu-rays/HD-DVDs and both a...

Thanks for the information, will defiantly check whether the HDMI > DVI converter is included. It tends not to be included with the boards built with the class of GPU that you’re interested in and the DVI > HDMI adapter isn’t so easy to find in the UK the last time I looked and the price tends ...

... Asus' were out of stock which is bummer. I got Sapphire's version with Hyper Memory instead. Great card but no HDMI adapter with Sapphire. Thanks for the info.

Sapphire HD3470 Power Consumption?
Hi Guys,
Anyone know the idle/load power consumption of the ATi HD 3470 card, and if possible more specifically the passive Sapphire model?
I've been searching for a couple of days with no luck!
Thanks.

Hi Guys, Thanks for the replies, unfortunately I can't fit the Thermalright HR-03 or the S1 in my NSK2480, I only have about 2mm clearance at the top of the card! The VF700 also seems to be to tall but the VF900 may be an option however the most promising looks to be the Masscool VF1 which is small ...

Passive cooler for 7900GT 512MB?
Hi Guys, I am looking for a passive cooler for my 7900GT 512MB as my stock cooler makes a slight whining noise that is driving me nutts :roll: The card usually stays below 50C with the stock cooler as I rarely play any games, the system is used mainly as a media center. The catch is that in needs to...

Thanks for the reply, I found the board on the Asus site and was on the edge of buying it when I read this ... Due to Intel VGA driver for Windows XP does not include screen scraper defense, so HD-DVD and Blu-Ray can only run under Windows Vista OS :roll: Well that will never do, I have no plans on ...

Passive HDMI HDCP card to support HD-DVD and Blueray?
Hi Guys, I've been out of the loop for a little while, I'm building a Media Center PC that will be used with (possibly) a LG GGW-H20L HD-DVD/Blueray drive to play Blueray, HD-DVD movies. I'm looking for a low powered, passive GFX card that would do this and not stress my system (specs below). The ca...

HDCP?
Hello,
Could anyone tell me if this motherboard supports HDCP via HDMI?
I am very interested in using this board along with an LG GGW-H20L HD-DVD/Blueray combi drive for playback of Blueray/HD-DVD movies through my media center
Cheers all.

For those who already have made their enclosure(s), do you have any foam in there? If the gelpacks are suppose to transfer the heat from the drive to the enclosure, won't the foam just hinder the heat transfer? I put a narrow strip of thick foam along the bottom of the enclosure, the coolpak still ...

Well I ended up with the larger containers as the smaller one would not fit the HDD without it touching the sides :? I have now fitted the larger box into a 5.25" bay resting (read Jammed) above my CDROM drive and what a difference it makes! Comparable to my old water-cooled SilentStar! The only noi...

Thanks Thomas, seems all is as should be :) .. Which direction should the fan rotate? The fan of all ATI or NV Silencer coolers should rotate clockwise. Since a diagonal fan is used, the air is drawn in in a twister. This gives you the feeling of blowing air. Nevertheless the cooler is drawing air o...

hi guys, I have just fitted my newly purchased Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer nVidia 1 for my MSI Ti4600 and something does not seem right!

Re: Decent cheap Socket A cooler needed plus Standby questio
The stock cpu fan on my Athlon XP (socket A) has recently started to get loud. I would like to replace the fan with something that is quiet. Did you mean the fan, or the whole heatsink? If you are on a budget and depending on the size of the heatsink you can just replace the fan with something a bi...
