Short dumb question: Is non-ecc ram the same as regular ram that you can purchase anywhere?

Hello, I just recently had a new computer built. I am using an Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard, with AMD Athalon XP2700+ processor. I have recently run into a few problems while playing WWII Online (Fairly frequent CTD's, computer shutting down all of the sudden, everything locks up a few...

I added another 256MB of RAM to my system at the weekend but instead of improving thibgs there now worse. Things have started to bedome really laggy now. In windows if I move the mouse sometimes it will take a second or more to respond the same if I click on somthing. Also I've had problem with...

Hi, I recently bought 2x256mb rdram PC800 memory. I have 4 memory slots with 4x64mb currently installed so the plan was to removed 2x64 and instal the new ram. The memory registers and shows a total of 640mb but when I run a game it crashes back to desktop so I took out the old memory...

This whole dual DDR thing has me a little irritated and torn between two motivators. On one hand, it appeals to my testosterone-driven decision making to get more speed than I probably need. On the other hand, buying two sticks of RAM that will act like one seems like some evil scientist's...

I'm really confused about whether the P4PE basic edition(the one without the serial ATA etc) has onboard sound. In the specifications on the Asus website, it says that Audio is optional. Does this mean that there is no onboard sound card in the P4PE basic edition? If there isn't does it mean...

I overclocked my T-Bird 800 to 988 (9.5x104) and got temperatures from 45-52°C with FOP32 Silent. That´s a bit too much imho. I removed the cooling pad on the bottom of the heatsink and used thermal paste instead. Prob Nr. 2: I cant adujust the core voltage with my A7V133. When i change it to...

My friend is going to buy a new system. This is my question: What is the best deal conserning price/speed/stability? >>>Asus A7S333 (SiS 745) >>>Asus A7V266-C (VIA KT266A) >>>MSI KT3 Ultra2 (VIA KT333 CE) >>>ECS K7VTA3 V3.X (VIA KT333 CD) >>>Asus A7N266-C (nVIDIA nFORCE 415-D) The other system...

Am wanting to build a new system and give my old one to my son. It's been several years since I've done the research but I'm trying to catchup. Could you tell me how this would work or what changes I should look at. I'm trying to stay under $800. My old system is: Celeron 900 Tyan S1854 Trinity...

OK, I know the subject has probably been beat to death. I know Intel doesn't look to be moving forward on Rambus. I know Rambus have acted like jerks businesswise. I even know Yellowstone is imaginary at the moment, BUT from a technology view what is faster DDR or RDRAM (at premium speeds, ie...

An odd question, but I was wondering if the new i7 memory for the x58 boards would work with the x48 boards? My friend has some extra i7 memory and i was thinking of using it on my system. Sorry if this has been asked before. btw, they are the "CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM...

I've been running Win8 since launch date and didn't really have a problem with it. Occasionally it would freeze and crash, but would always boot up no problem. However yesterday it happened again. The computer more or less froze with mouse movement being jagged and the hard drive whirring...

I remember reading vaguely about a year ago, that hard drive larger than 120 gigs won't be recognized, or there' a limit or something. I'm making a new PC, and I'm temped to buy a 200 gig HD...but I want it so it's divded to 30 gigs on on partition, and 170 on the rest. Is that possible? I'm...

I am currently using a computer with a 500GB HDD that has lasted me over 3 years and 7 months and still going. My 2 past computers were also HDD that has each lasted over three years. That to me is normal and makes sense, why would my memory storage be in danger anyway? I'm planning on getting...

Hi. This is my 1st post. I searched, but really didn't come up with a compatible question. A pc I worked on has a default setting in bios of 60ns memory speed. This is not seen in bios, nor is it changeble in bios. I only know this by reading the mobo manual. I changed the memory from 60ns...
