From what I've heard, this is a very flawed benchmark, especially with the HD numbers and the variation between ATA/66/100/133, which in actuality causes very little performance difference.

CPU: 1524
Mem: 1136
HD:526
Can I really hold out until Clawhammer?

Yeah there are going to be problems with every chipset. Personally I've had good luck with Via, but that isn't true for all.

You would love Rob Zombie's house. His entire house is covered in stuff like that. I saw it on MTV Cribs, which I find to be a pretty cool show even though I am not a huge MTV fan.

I apologize on behalf of everyone here for being a bunch of "liberal morons." I hope you find it in your heart to forgive us for straying from the path of purity and goodness.

I think SVC is an online vendor, but I'm not sure. If I were you, I would wait until the Thoroughbreds come out, as that will allow for much higher clock speeds and better overclocking potential. It shouldn't be too much longer until they arrive, but I guess there is no way of knowing for sure. If y...

What the heck are you talking about Sovereign?

I'd feel pretty violated if that happened to me.

I honestly don't think it is worth arguing with anyone this entrenched in ultra right wing philosophy.

What do you do at Star Wars conventions? Is it like a rock show for Star Wars junkies, with the rock stars being replaced by Chewbacca? But really, do you just learn more about the Star Wars universe or buy memorabilia/cool costumes, or?

I like XP Home better than 2K. I have it running on 3 computers here so far.

If you want the absolute best performance, get the highest clocked P4. If you want to save some money, get an Athlon. I'm getting pretty sick of the anti-Intel crap that is so predominant on the internet now. I'm not fan of Intel, but the AMD zombies repeating the same things over and over need to c...

No, into the internal speaker header (next to the pins for the power switch, etc.)
And congrats to LoneWolf :)

It turns out I'm an idiot, in case any of you need to be reminded. I put the DVD sound connector into the internal speaker pins instead of putting it into the soundcard. The cord melted and burned and charred the bottom of the case. It runs fine now that I sorted out the wires, but I feel just a lit...
