Building a quiet PC (Athlon 2500+ based)

HawkBoy

Hi, After a LOT of research, I've decided against water-cooling (it's just a big pain in the @$$ right now). I was wondering how I could make an Athlon CPU quiet without it constantly overheating, or me underclocking it.

Help with power problem...

gilgamesh

I have a problem. My problem is that my computer sporadically not turn on. What I mean by not turn on is it does nothing, no power supply fan or anything. Other times it comes on fine without a hitch.

Power save doesnt turn off monitor any more & 22GB user

bigcletus

Just like the topic says, regardless of the time set until the monitor turns off it never does for one user profile. The other user profiles seem to work ok. Something must be broken in the registry or something.

ATI: LOOKING GOOD (9800 series upcoming)!

ThC 129

ATI says the next version of their catalyst drivers 3. 3 will have more performance gains in them. They said that they are commited to brining users Solid Stable Drivers that still perform well. Also the 9700 prices will be droping around $100 USD, so those cards are going to be FLYING off of shelves at that price.

Mixing hard drives

belveder

Out of curiosity, I just bought a new hard drive that is 80 gig, 7200 rpm, ATA 100 with 8mg cache but my old hard drive is 30 gig, ATA 66 and runs at 5400 rpm. I would like to run both (preferably with the OS on the older, smaller one) but I read somewhere once that you can't.
