Thanks for all the help. Rokkaholik, based on your memory suggestions I assume that DDR2 1066 is the correct memory speed to go with? Also, I neglected to mention that I will not be overclocking in the near future. Will stock cooling then be fine?...

The x2 4400+ is starting to show its age as I am now doing a lot of coding and multimedia work, often running many relatively intensive programs at the same time. Something is wrong with this computer, and after hours and hours of diagnostics withou...

My Linux laptop is of a similar spec and I can run CS:S at low-medium settings. WoW I found was a bit of a pain and quite laggy at times. The 200m chipset is by no means a gaming powerhouse, but it can get the job done with lower end games....

60-80 FPS at 1280x1024 doesn't seem right. My CPU is similar and at stock clocks (2.2GHz) I'll get 80-120 FPS everything maxed at 1280x1024. That's with 1 radeon x1900xtx at stock....

Just a comment on the service turnaround with the new 3 year warranty:I sent my 360 in less than 2 weeks ago and was told it would be 4-6 weeks before seeing a new or repaired unit. I got my new one today, hope everyone else sees the same quickness ...

I couldn't see doing sports with anything less than a fast 200-300mm lense, especially if it's indoor use. If you're only using it outdoors, I've had good luck with the Nikkor 70-300mm VR lense. It would work well with a D40x as it ...

If your video card has 2 outputs (as almost all do), just plug it into the second output. That's what i do to use my 32" for movies or whatnot....

Great pics, I've got a Nikon D80 and I find that a EV of -0.3 or so really helps the pics not look too overexposed. I'm using the kit lens right now (18-135mm) and it seems to be doing a good job....

I'm gonna go with the D80. Thanks for help, guys....
