give us a screenshot of cpuz, i think ur looking at the wrong screen..

lol, i noticed that rad too. now get an insane pump and some water blocks and lets get some extreme cooling going!

omg, looks soo good! i wna see an HD preview of it!

your temps suck that much!? with the intel stock cooler i am getting similar temps.

64bit thanks!!!

the arctic cooling freezer 7 pro is nowhere close to the top of the line air coolers but it is definatly better than stock. so go for it if it's free, just dont overclock alot if ur planning to.

you wont have to reinstall windows since it is the same model. all ur speeds will be defualted to stock so there wont be any stability problems there. all should go well.

only creative has eax 3 and higher. they wont let anyone else have the benefits of eax so eax2 is the highest they let anyone have. but then there was the Auzentech X-Fi Prelude yes it uses the X-Fi processor but it is a quailty card with eax5.

well i would go with the 2x1GB unless you need the extra ram.

both are great heatsinks nonetheless. and only 2.7GHz lol i havnt overclocked anything yet. the temps would just be insane and i dont want to risk it just yet. i'll be getting my water cooling parts any day now and then i can finally see what my Q6600 can do

haha, slightly smaller the ninja is a beast, especially the latest revision of it. i have the original on my opty and temps are usually under 30C which is just insane for an OCed processor.

8600gt is exactly what you want if you want dx10. 150$-512MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130290 100$ after rebate-256MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130085

well creative is making the drivers afaik but just wait for what the reviews have to say.

wait for some reviews to come out for the Auzentech X-Fi Prelude, you can hold off with onboard audio for a few weeks

just to edit one of your games.. just cause does work, not sure about the demo, but the full game works perfectly.

if that's your max speed then that's pretty good.

it's out already!! i gotta see it. i still like Links 2003, much better gameplay in my opinion..

you dont need to reinstall vista if you decided to install xp afterwards. you just need to repair vista's boot files. besides that, vista is over 10GB so there is no way that will fit on a DVD.

you can only receive/give feedback if you win an auction with that person.

yep first link works. good thing that i dont chew gum i drink alot of water everyday. i have to if i want to run 10 miles in this summer heat..

get yourself a new fan then, lol. get a cheap yate loon for under $10 shipped

just get an X2 and save some money. the opterons are great overclockers, that's about it..

wow that's a perfect fit. can you explain what it wrong with the fan? why do you only have one clip on it?

well for boot times i've disabled most things such as the jmicron and 2nd etherner port. there are prolly other things but i havnt spent that much time in the bios yet. the boot time i was actually talking about was the actual windows bootscreen. my amd comp took 3 bars max and now its taking like 5..

ya that's not AS3 tho. functions used to be that easy and now i have no clue what's going on.. i gave up on flash and i actually got it to work with php and css, its ALOT nicer that way and ALOT easier for automatically doing things. all i need to do is add a TTF to a folder and im good
