    Gaming building a computer

    The three hundred case comes with a 140mm blow hole top fan and a 120mm rear exhaust fan that both have a speed switch (leaving on low would be fine), so you won't need any extra fans with that setup. You've got to be careful with getting extra fans because you can easily get a very loud one...

    you dont need an aftermarket cooler, and the freezer 7 pro isnt actually much quiter than the stock cooling, only good if she wants to overclock. how about this: microatx mobo: GA-G31M-S2L - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/140066 34.66 cpu: E7200 - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/145258 75.84...

    Gaming 9600GT any good?

    guys, the 9800gt is the same as the 8800gt. It's just marketing. benchmarks show the same performance. It has the same chipset, same memory clock, core clock etc everything is the same apart from one thing - the 9800gt has the ability to use much less power if you're not gaming (provided your...

    Gaming What did you think about Tao's Adventure?

    It's a roguelike, which is probably largely why it got bad reviews.

    Homebrew NeoDS - Neo Geo Emulator

    The 'mame' roms not 'neogeo' roms are the ones with .bin files. Although not all mame roms have bin files.

    Hardware AGP video cards

    I don't have an intake fan installed. My case has no mounting place for one, is there anything I can do? There are also no side vents for a fan duct. I am able to get arctic silver thermal paste, but is aus$15 including shipping worth it?

    Just installed the new case fan. Didn't make any difference in CPU temp But it definitely is spinning. I installed it as an exhaust. But I cleaned out the CPU fan and heatsink and the peak temperature dropped 20C!

    Gaming Izuna Legend of the Unemployed Ninja

    Maybe you're confusing claws and arms? They do look kind of similar. With arms you can equip a sword - the arm is the defense and the sword is the attack. Claws are both attack and defense, and you can't equip anything else with them. I didn't 'use' many talismans until much later in the game...

    Gaming Izuna Legend of the Unemployed Ninja

    You can buy all talismans from a guy that you cure after the second dungeon (I think its second) He is in the north east part of the main area up some stairs if I recall correctly. Kikan are 10000 each very cheap, you can also farm them in the first dungeon. Kikan only costs 5 SP, use it if...

    Gaming Izuna Legend of the Unemployed Ninja

    Izuna 1 and 2, Shiren 1 and 2, Pokemon Dungeon Dark and Time, and Tao's Adventure: Curse of the Demon Seal are all the commercial roguelikes. I loved Izuna, too. I think it got poor reviews because its a roguelike not because its a bad game. Most people don't enjoy that type of gameplay. I've...

    Hardware AGP video cards

    Thanks for all the help but I'm sticking with the 6800GT that I got second hand. I wanted a good card that wasn't too expensive and I found it. No its not the best AGP card but it was available and cheap. My CPU is only a intel P4 2.4Ghtz 512Kbit so I was worried that I wouldn't get much of a...

    Homebrew GBA emulation on NDS

    Yeah numbers like that always get thrown around, ive heard 7x, 10x and now 8x (from you). You can't really say that to emulate something it needs to be x times more powerful. It also depends on the architecture (eg ARM, x86 etc - need to be more powerful if the two systems architectures are very...

    Hardware AGP video cards

    I found this really awesome table of graphics cards ordered from fastest to slowest. Yes 6800 GT is older than 7600 GS, but 6800 GT IS a better card. Heres the table http://www.playtool.com/pages/vidtable/table.html. Look at the yellow list (AGP) 7600 GS was given a speed of 17.9, the 6800 GT...

    Hardware AGP video cards

    Pretty sure circuit city doesn't ship internationally. FX 5200 512? I didn't think something like that exists. Or do you mean a 512MB video card in general. Video ram size is not a good indicator of video card performance. And, I'm fairly sure its not the ram size thats bottlenecking my...
