Do people think that conroe would work on a LGA775 945G Mobo?

Im guessing it would, but with its own chipset at launch, it makes me wonder.

Hi guys, I was wondering, is it possible to have both a HDD and a regular DVD-ROM drive on the same IDE cable?

If this is possible, how should the master/slave setup be?

Thanks y'all.

Hey I'm not a fanboy! We'll am not aware that I am :P What does it take to get on the press release sample list :P Wouldnt mind having new cards sent to me ;) The reviews are great, this is actually the first true crossfire review that I've seen! And it came to me! Dont let a few people bad mouthin ...

What happened to comparing the Crossfire to 7800GTX SLi?

Couldn't get hold of the parts? ;)

I really hope ATI can get its avaiability up soon, else they are in real danger of falling so far behind that they wont be able to catch Nvidia up.

Nice one!

Should be a pretty sweet mobile gaming rig when you get it done

SO because my PC is MCE, its got a 7.1 onbooard soundcard. AC97 or something. Do I have to enable some secret setting to get them working? Or use special speakers made for the job? Because I tried plugging in 2 other sets of speakers into the rear surroind ports, and a proper sub into the sub port :...

Americans and guns! :P I'll just stick with a baseball bat :snakeman: NB. Im in the UK. I guess we have been lucky, and it is a good job it wasn't me that left it unlocked! (my dad thinks that it has been undone since jan 2nd when he took the crimbo lights down! :shock: ) We now have lots of bolts o...

lol, Im not having a go at anyone who likes AMD by the way :P Our house got 'broken' into last night (my dad had left the patio door unlocked!) and someone stole our flatscreen monitor :( But the thief took the time to unscrew the monitor from the pc and unplug it from the extension socket, without ...

Either this has been done before or this has taken a long time for him to finish, i can remember this from months ago!

Does the MB make any beeping noises as you turn it on? With it being a fresh build it could be anything really! :? Have you made sure everything is plugged in correctly? lol. I mean like something could be slightly loose, say the graphics card for instance. Someone else might have something construc...

Ok, so i have one of these and was wanting to sell it too, but check out this guy's opening line on the details!!!!!! :shock: PIII 500mhz This thing struggles with running yesterday's apps, lets see it run vista! :snakeman: Dan PS. PM me if you want to buy mine, for nostalga's sake or extreme overcl...

Sweet.

Now i just need to win the lottery or something

PS. Wonder what this beast would be capable of in the folding arena!

Dead topic dude! :axe: Erm, I guess you have to be lucky to get a 600 pointer work unit. Keep folding long enough and your bound to pick one up. (Hint: Allow the large work units to be sent to you (In the options somewhere)) I've done one of these and they do take alot of solid computing to complete...

Sweet mod blake

I can't wait till I get a proper computer I can truely call my own, I mean, there is only so much modding you can do on a laptop

I guess that'll be when I move out though.
(Roll on september! )

I think my stupid PC has a non standard MB.

The ports on the back dont line up with the ports on the case pictures ive seen. I included a picture in my original post.

How can I get around this?

Ideally I would like to upgrade to watercooling some time in the future (wouldn't we all!), so a totally silent case isnt essential. The mid-case idea sounds great. As for the hard drives, space for 4/5 sounds good. Bear in Mind I currently only have 2 HDD's but might expand. :P Though if there is a...

Are the up/down times slow on both the LAN and WLAN? If its only the WLAN check the wireless coverage, the signal may be weak where your PC is (If it is, move it closer to the basestation!). There is a program somewhere where you can change the MTU packet size for your broadband, this can help the s...
