P4 Power Requirements

No overlocking in here anymore - after maybe 7 years I think I've reached a point where it's no longer required... The Epox manual states min 250W so I was always confident that I could handle the CPU - was bothered by the additional 3x HD, 3x OD & various cards - happily there seems to be no...

P4 Power Requirements

An update for anyone interested.... Got the Epox 4G4A, P4 & 512MB Samsung Ram a few days ago. The Epox board doesn't have the 4 pin power socket seen on most other P4 boards. Despite this, my system is 100% stable with my old (old) 300W PSU.

P4 Power Requirements

My PSU doesn't have the square connector, but I don't think the EPoX mobo I'm looking at has a socket for it either. Any idea if this is going to have an impact?

XBOX needs an addon just to play DVD movies?

Think I've heard $20-$30 mentioned as the price point.

Currently have 256mb, should I jump to 768mb?

Photoshop eats ram. If you work with big scans its a case of the more the better (I've got 320 and it still pages all the time).

Possible to recover Outlook email by scanning harddrive?

I quite intelligently wiped out many months work a while back (backup slightly more often these days) & tried every shareware w2k recovery program I could find. Was'nt able to recover a single thing though so I would'nt hold out much hope. Maybe he'll do better though I would'nt count on...

A couple of days ago the x86 p4 was the leading processor in specint2000 & specfp2000 (before the new alpha & itanium scores came out) so I'd have to say that x86 does'nt seem to be hindering things too much.

Keyboard recommendations.

Tris, if you were in the UK I could give you a half dozen different sources, not sure about the US though.

Keyboard recommendations.

I used to have on of those Fujitsu keyboards, but have been using a cherry click keyboard for the last 3 yrs G80-3000HFMGB, which I think is way (way) better than the fujitsu (or any other kb I've ever used).

ISDN internal modems

You tend to get a better ping of an internal ta. Best are the asuscom and eicom cards.

Uses for Ascend Pipeline 75 ISDN modem/router

I bought a 75s - same product but without the integrated nt1 - for £60 (~$85) a couple of weeks ago. I'd imagine you'll probably not get much more than this, afraid broadband has likely killed the market for second hand isdn gear.
