    Which Mobo do i want?

    I´d get something that supports DDR333 with such a powerful CPU.

    Geforce 2 GTS - which version of detonator

    I recommend using the 29.80 WHQL version. This driver´s primary quality is that it´s VERY stable. It´s also quite fast compared to other new drivers!

    g4 mx440 vs g3 ti 200

    No, the GeForce4 MX and the GeForce 3 Ti200 cost about the same. I would clearly recommend the GF3 Ti200 if you´re on a tight budget. If you have the money, go with a real GeForce4, I think it´s worth it!

    more power??

    It might very well be the PSU. Multiple drives (HDD, CD-ROM) and the graphics really put preasure on the PSU´s performance. Your current CPU uses more power, and it might just be too much for your PSU. Try a 300W of good quality (Antec, Enermax or Codegen) or a 400-450W of another brand. You...

    g4 mx440 vs g3 ti 200

    I´ve tried both cards, and believe me, there´s a big difference. You´re bound to be disappointed if you´re getting a GeForce4 MX, any version! GeForce3 is much better, even the TI200 version, and it´ll last longer, as it has support of DX8.

    What's going on with my new vid card?

    I knew MOHAA didn´t require a really fast system, but a 600MHz Pentium3 sounds a bit low to me. Are you sure it´s running at high settings? I´d really like to see the detailed review, post a link if you find it.

    ECS K7S6A

    I have that same mainboard, and I´m also wondering what the embedded bus is. The mainboard is great, has lots of features, is really cheap and even a good overclocker, eventhough it has some limited options. I´ve overclocked my system 25% (FSP by 50%), even with lowering the Vcore by 0,25v. It´s...

    How hot is too hot?

    I´ve heard that both Seagate and Maxtor have fast harddrives with fluid bearings that are both very cheap and very silent. I have a Seagate myself, never really tried a Maxtor...

    Best processor for Maya work?

    You are wrong, search the boards, many professionals have been very disappointed going with the P4! Dual Mac´s are the best deal, and in Maya the high-end AMD CPU´s can clearly beat the P4 in rendering!

    Necessity of a 350W PSU with an XP1800+

    Shouldn´t be any problems, only if you´re adding more drives or maybe more powerful graphics. The Antec is good quality, so I believe you´re fine with the 300W.

    u guys notice any differance between 1.0GHz, 1.6?

    I´m running a clan-based host on Gamespy, so naturally I know how each machine performs. What is your FPS in MOHAA, on what configuration? It´s obviosly your system that is having problems if you need a 1700+ just to play MOHAA! MOHAA can even run on a 56K modem and get around (80-150ping), not...
