Now that is funny!
-
Is the drive on its own channel or shared w/ another ATAPI device? You know why I'm asking this right?
-
Which speed wins? If you have a really fast ATA-133 HDD and a slow ATA-33 CD-ROM on the same IDE cable, Would the effective throughput for the channel be the speed of the slowest device?
-
Unless one has an "uplink" port, then you can use a straight through cable. OOPS, sorry, didn't read above.

I'm interested in buying a mobo with the Nforce2 chipset, but do I need to have 2 memory modules for the dual channel architecture to work? If I only have one module should I go with a VIA chipset instead?
-
It's a T-Bred (266 FSB). My mobo is an ASUS A7V8X with the VIA KT400 chipset.
-
O.K. I have an Athalon XP 1800 (1.53GHz), FSB overclocked only to 1.7GHz. If I go beyond that, my system hangs and reboots, etc. I haven't unlocked my CPU yet, but what else can I do?
-
WOW! Those are expensive. The PNY cards are like $200. What about Gainward or Chaintech? Are they any good?
-
Well, I'm finally dumping my nVIDA TNT piece of crap vid card and I'm ready to buy a new one. I'm partial to nVIDIA so I think I'm gonna go with the FX 5600. I found a Chaintech card for under $150. Does anyone have this card or do you have any recommendations?
-
I am showing 78o F today. My CPU is an Athalon XP 1800. I have a 120 mm Chimney fan, a 120 mm Intake, 2 X 90 mm Exaust fans, and a Volcano 9. No OC yet... My mobo is at 82o F.
-
So what would be a bad temp?
-
What is a good CPU temp? ASUS Probe is showing around 80 degrees Farenheit. Is that good?
-
O.K. Which TI4800 is better, MSI or Chaintech?
-
Does anyone know why the "Change Setting" button is always disabled in Device Manager > Device > Resources? How do you change system resources in Win2K with this button disabled? I am logged in as Administrator too.

I'm not too sure about the ASUS nforce mobos, apparently it is a known problem that when you use PC2700 sticks they report "failed memory test" errors, besides the nforce chipsets are too young. I would suggest the VIA chipset for now, let nforce go through puberty first. You can get the ASUS VIA KT400 for $87.99 at pricewatch. As far as your case goes, I think you would have more fun modding a case from scratch. Buy a steel full-tower case and do some of the mods on this site like the 120mm exaust fan on the top, or a plexi window on the side. I think you would be cheating yourself out of some fun if you buy that case.
