    Crossflow Extreme

    I forgot if I had posted this comp here or not (problems when you get old:)) I made this for a Lan Party. As usual I started a week before the Lan and had to rush it but it turned out quite a bit better than the earlier versions. The Red Crossflow comp had a dual 80mm rad and for this one I...

    Who is running 8800s in SLI

    I am wondering about my 8800 cards. I have 2 and want to run SLI on my DFI SLI DR mobo. But I think its X8 and X8 when running SLI, Will it make a BIG difference over X16 and X16 mobos?

    Difference between Quick and Full Format..

    Most times I am too lazy to wait around for full formatting. I cant imagine they would give you 2 choices unless there was a difference to them. Also I think I remember hearing someone talk about a really slow way to format that was even better. Can anyone enlighten me (and others) that are...

    Do I need .net framework

    I see there is Microsoft .net 1, 2 and 3.0 now. I remember when I had a ATI card they were needed but with Nvidia are they needed? I think I remember hearing they slow the comp down.
