    DivX 7 Standard Announced

    This paragraph is misleading. I don't see how DivX helped get H.264 up and running... It wasn't until now (with DivX 7) that it even supports H.264 playback. In fact, for the longest time, DivX was considered as competition to H.264, since it was much faster at encoding/decoding video at the...

    How does running an Nvidia card as a physx card work?

    Go here: http://www.nvidia.com/content/forcewithin/us/download.asp Download the latest drivers only (you don't need the game demos and other stuff), install them, and you're good to go for PhysX on your GeForce card. Check out this article for a rough idea of the difference GeForce PhysX...

    Cooler Master Launches Hyper Z600 Passive CPU Cooler

    I think the title has a typo... I believe it should say "Z600 Massive Cooler"...

    Laptop Clock Doesn't Tick When Power is Off

    My friend has a Compaq F750CA laptop (cheap, just for surfing the net), and has the strangest problem with it... The time doesn't change when the power is off. So, if it is 9:30PM April 13 2008, and you turn the computer off, it will be 9:30PM when you turn it on again. When the system is on...

    Possible to enable SLI on any chipset?

    You can't do SLI on every chipset, since it works through the board and depends on the MCPs. CrossFire works quite differently than SLI, and yes at VoodooPC (where I work) we do have CrossFire running on SLI-based boards like the Blackbird 002's. How we do it, I can't say :). Though without...

    Where to buy high quality resistors for voltmods?

    If you're looking to purchase resistors (or other electronics components), check out http://www.digikey.com. They offer same-day shipping, and insane variety of good quality stuff. You just have to know what you're looking for, and how to sift through their billions of items :).

    680i LT SLI, Memory Timings, Vista64 BSoDs

    I just wanted to add that OCZ's customer service is amazing. I contacted them with my problems, and the same day a resolution was created... I sent them my old RAM, 2 days later, brand new OCZ Reaper 4-4-4-15 @ 2V RAM showed up at my door, in exchange for my cheap RAM and troubles. I installed...

    4 gigs of mem on Vista 32???

    That's strange... With Vista 64-bit drivers shouldn't be an issue, since Microsoft did it right this time. In order to get your driver WHQL'd for Vista (Microsoft approved), you've got to submit both a 32-bit and 64-bit version of the driver, or no signing from Microsoft. (When I say "your" I...

    4 gigs of mem on Vista 32???

    Vista 32-bit (or any 32-bit OS) cannot use more than 4GB of RAM, ever. Well, without certain trickery, but I'm not going into that (see PAE, it's pseudo). Here's why: A 32-bit OS or 32-bit CPU can have RAM addresses 32 bits in length. So, an example would be 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000...

    How do i get the blue and white volume panel for X-fi Xtreme Music ?

    All that the X-Fi CD software lets you do is access the Audio Console features in a different way... Instead of clicking on radio buttons in an ugly dialog to switch modes, you can drag around a shiny knob that glows when switching modes, if you catch my drift. It's like an elaborate skin for...

    How do i get the blue and white volume panel for X-fi Xtreme Music ?

    I was just reading the release notes for the latest X-Fi driver on Creative's site: By the sounds of it, I'm going to assume that you can run the latest drivers in conjunction with the X-Fi CD software, albeit with a few potential hiccups, like the one listed there... Remember, Creative's...
