Ok, so here is the deal. I currently have a rather good system. I'm running a good mobo with a 6800GT in it. My only question is would it be a better upgrade to get another 6800GT and update my mobo and switch to SLI. OR just get a 7800? Seeing as it would cost about the same. So price isn't...

Best-Buy had a good deal on some headphones with a built in mic. I bought them about 4 months ago. THey are logitech's and i was looking for a buddy for some and noticed they were on sale for about $40 less than what I bought them for.

But, the real question is, the "dangers" of water cooling worth it. I realize that the water cooling systems are made quite well. But like any other computer part they can fail. And if one is spitting water into you computer its probably not a good thing. What are the real dangers of water cooling?

I know the topic of this cooling is been brought up a lot. I recently had a computer being cooled with a tornado fan. And it worked and I had no problems other than the annoying sound. So I switched to just a normal fan. And the temp idle went from 52-55 range to the 57-60 range. SO my...

Dude if you didnt press the socket down you should be fine. Turn it on without the video card. If you hear a solid beep then you are fine. I THINK it will post fine without a video card you just wont see anything. Not sure but most likely you are fine.

Nah havent tried that but its not a bad idea. I turned it off and unplugged it let it sit and turned it back on and it worked. So I think that its ok now. Temperature is running at a solid 45 now.

I checked the temp on my computer using a 775 3.2 prescott through the bios and it was 145 degree celcius (like 238 farenheit). I'm pretty sure that it wouldnt start up at the temperature. Something is rather odd. If it was that hot you would be able to feel heat coming from it. I stuck my...

I was wondering if anyone got an answer to this or if Im just SOL.

it monitors system temps and cpu usage and there is burnin modes on it.and can monito vid card temps.

OK let me just say yes im an Intel boy if you dont want to help don't respond. Ive been trying to download the Intel Desktop Control Center program for quite some time the Intel site has always been giving the server down thing everytime I try and download it from there. I really would like to...

Ok so i overclocked a buddies 3.2 to a 3.38 and the temperature didnt change a bit. Im asuming thats a very good thing so im wondering if i should keep going or just let it go at that?

lol i thought this whole post was a waste of a lot of time and then i read vaderpro's sig. 'what would I know, I bought a Pentium" Dude don't be discouraged by what people say on here AMD doesn't kick Pentiums ass.

Um... Cant you only run Xeon's with duel procesors??? Not sure but I think so. And anyway dude if your video editing never ever never get an AMD. And if your willing to drop the dough a P4 3.6 Double E kicks major ass. With having the L3 cache it kicks major ass.

Dude LoL the heat isnt that hot. Think of it this way your CPU probably runs at about 50-60 C. A hair dryer might reach like 40 C a hair dryer would work while a can of air works better lol. But Im cheap.

LoL omg the things we argue about.
