Conservative Overclock for my Athlon 64 X2 4400+ ?

I run my smoke detector at 9 volts. That baby screams.

I HATE EA!

We don't use the in-game VOIP - we use teamspeak. That way, we can connect and collectively decide which server to join.

Website question

Download the trial version of Fireworks from Macromedia.com. If I recall correctly, it has a feature that will take all of the skill out of this and export the HTML complete with behaviors and proper image references, which you can then FTP to your mom's server. As an aside, I've been a...

Battlefield 2 Memory Usage *Results Updated*

Let's just be clear - you don't -need- more than a gig to play the game. In fact, you don't even need a gig. One of my buddies is playing quite well with 768mb of ram on a 2600+ with a Radeon 9800. He's playing at 1024x768, I think, on medium settings with dynamic lighting and shadows turned...

New Dell 2405 FPW

BF2 doesn't have native support for widescreen (unfortunately). There are threads containing a command line (shortcut) at widescreengamingforum and planetbattlefield that will at least get you into the game.

Smaller LCD with same stats as 2405fpw?

I'm looking for a DVI LCD with similar image quality and response time as the 2405fpw, but hopefully a little smaller (and still able to do 1600x1200). It seems like the next logical choice would be the 2005fpw, but it won't go to 1600 x 1200. Doesn't seem like the 2001fp comes close in terms...

Asus warning probe - 3.3v at 3.6?

Thanks. If it turns out to really be 3.6v, is that enough surplus voltage to damage something?

Asus warning probe - 3.3v at 3.6?

I just assembled an A8N-SLI Premium with an Athlon 64 x2 4600 and an Enermax Noisetaker 701 (600 watts). Boots properly, no errors, but when I run the Asus utility probe, it shows my 3.3v is actually at 3.6v (and beeps a warning). BIOS also shows voltage hovering around 3.6v. 1. Is...

Rant that applies to this forum

Talk about poor planning. This is like the geniuses who are building suburb after suburb in Nevada and FL without any consideration for where the water will come from to support these communities. Short term planning will be the death of us all.

7800 GTX from Best Buy?

Personally, I think it's amusing to see people with $400 video cards giving people with $600 video cards grief for spending too much money. Friends, these are all luxury items. A few weeks ago, I helped a friend order a desktop system from Dell. He's mostly a business guy, but he does...

Do all X2 motherboards require flashing?

I believe the A8N-SLI Premium (note: Premium, not Deluxe) is currently shipping with an X2-compatible bios. At least I hope it does - it has the X2 logo on the box! AMD has a list of compatible 939 boards with x2-friendly bios versions on their site.

Really old thread somebody bumped.

This could potentially put ATI behind for a couple of years.

what are all the grahphics for?

I dunno - I've been playing BF42, Forgotten Hope and Desert Combat since the original game came out a few years ago and enjoyed every minute of it. The mod community is already embracing BF2, so I expect to enjoy variations on the game for at least a couple of years. It's an...
