Just a quick question. What's the need to be able to cold-cold-start the HTPC? I agree that any cpu that can run at 1.175 should be able to cold-cold-boot at the same voltage. BTW - That's a nice looking amp you have in your pic gallery? I keep forgetting really how big those transformers get in the...

Re: "scheduled task" didn't work for me
Hello: I'm using Win2K SP2 and I tried the "scheduled task" method in several ways (start upon sign in, and start when idle) and neither worked at all. Nothing started at all -- I had set the "advanced" settings to start after just 1 minute of being idle, and I waited 2-3 minutes and -- nothing hap...

welcome newbiecanadian, it depends on which hdd you have.

Almost all fan filters will decrease the cfm output of your fans. Some will also not even filter the dust very well or clog up way too quickly. The only useful type of filter that I've seen are the ones with lots-o-lots of surface area. Like the ones meant for lawnmowers or car engines. Bluefront an...

Now I'm in a bind: I'd like to upgrade to an active PFC power supply, but all the Seasonic models top out at 30A on the 5V rail, and judging from Powergyoza's measurements, I'll likely need more than that. The only other PSU on the recommended list with active PFC appears to be the Zalman one: am I...

The VRM's are off to the side of each CPU. One is near the AGP port, the other is near the 20-pin ATX power connector. I can't tell how similar or different your setup is to mine. I can only think of your cable routing inside. It makes a difference how out-of-the-way the cables are. Oh yah, the diff...

I cut out the exhaust grills and removed my DIY intake filter to bring the temps down. See the link below in my sig for details. The easie...

If you go to the weblinks section and go to information (on 2nd or 3rd page), you'll find a link to a page on processor electrical specs. Compare the power consumption of both chips.

A 20C difference seems about right, expecially if it's a higher wattage CPU. If you look here at MikeC's review of the SLK900 you'll see a similar temp. rise (depending on the speed of your fan). Just to be on the safe side, I'd clean up the googone with some 99% isopropyl alcohol that you can get f...

Re: Review of AMS g-Tower with 2x120mm fans (watercooled)
Btw, to have the fans go at minimum speed I modified my other case toy, the Innovatec fan controller, to work together with the DD5. Now I can control all the fans myself but the DD5 steps in and feeds a full 12V if ever anything gets too hot. Foolproof and quiet, but not exactly cheap. I'm interes...
