Winamp playback/ripping problem

Recently I've experienced a problem with my Winamp 5.08e, and only with Winamp. When trying to play an audio CD from my drive, in this case The Downward Spiral Deluxe Edition, it seems to extend each track by about a second - and since that second is not really there, the last beat, or few...

24 pin PSU

I use the Cooler Master Real Power. It's a 450W PSU. It's got a bunch of connectors, a 24-to-20 pin adapter, dual 12V rails, and a Human to Computer Interface so you can see how much power your system's sucking up (it fits in the 3.5" bay). It also has a pretty blue LED fan which happened to...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

Many thanks :) I assume from the other threads that Arctic Silver 5 is the compound to go with?

Front USB bay

I'm looking for an installable front USB bay, one that preferably has a firewire and audio connectors as well. Preferably, I'd want black. I've got a Thermaltake Tsunami Dream, so the color'd match. The case comes with its own, at the top, but the wiring is somewhat hassling, and a front...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

Woo. I installed Cool'n'Quiet and let it run and sit, and the system was idling at about 23-24C. Running Spysweeper, it bumped up to about 30C. I just thought I'd mention that. XP-90 is the way to go? Should I spend the extra bucks for the 90C, or the 120C? They'll all install fine with my...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

I meant to reply to this from work, but my boss sidetracked me with fun History talk. I do have Cool'n'Quiet capabilities, but I haven't yet installed them. I wanted to, but I must've gotten sidetracked when i intended to do that, too, and forgot about it. I'll do that now, I think. So...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

Seeing as 10 was a wee bit late for me, since I actually have to wake up in the morning, what I did was let my system idle for the first fifteen minutes of The Shield, then started the Prime95 torture test and let it run through the night. I used the Blend option, rather than one or the...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

If I respond incorrectly here, it's because I've obviously interpreted "load" wrong. Heh. I was running Far Cry yesterday, as a test, as it came with my BFG card (which I've had to send out twice now. Talk about bad luck?). While playing it, the system roared up past 45, continued to...

Athlon 64 3500+ Temp

Heh. I'm new here. Hi, everyone. This is the first system I've built. I had never really thought of doing it, but after some recent crap with the guy I know who does build them, I went ahead and did it myself. I'm running, as the topic says, an Athlon 64 3500+, with its stock heatsink and...

What is the Best AMD Athlon 64 (Socket 939) Heatsink?

Aside from Hurricane Andrew, no one else has so much as mentioned the Arctic Cooling Freezer 64. I mention this because I'm looking at getting a heatsink/fan for my Athlon 64 3500+, too, and so I'm curious as to what you all think. Personally, I like the looks on the Freezer 64, but I'd still...
