I am also getting a MB for my conroe. I will be overclocking as much as I can (going with water!). Should I go with the GigaByte GA-965P-DQ6 or P5W DH Deluxe? Thanks, I just wanted some help before I take the plunge and pick one!

thanks. those helped a ton. my 7900 gt arrived in the mail today and i am thinking of doing the voltmod before install. thanks again!

sorry for the side track but can anyone post or send me the pictures as the link in the first post woun't show me the pics. I would love to do this mod but it is obviously impossible w/o the pictures with the lines! Thanks!

dido. When a $300 cpu beats a $1000 one....it all becomes a question of if you can get your hands on a conroe!

Thanks for all the replies and even more so for telling me about that accurate web site. I found two there that I liked and I also found a Mitsubishi Monitor 930SB for $225.00 including shipping. Is this more/less than what it is worth? Should I buy that one or one of these two...

thanks for the impute. Would you be able to suggest something that is better for the money even if it is a little more money? Or should I go with the one I linked? Thanks, -Grog

Hi. I am building a gaming computer for college and need to pick a monitor. I would like it to be CRT for several reasons: 1. better resolutions 2. cheaper 3. not as much ghosting 4. doesn't hurt my eyes as i does some people. I found this one but let me know if you know of a better one...

Thanks for the fast replies. The reviews for the G.SKILLs you posted mentioned that these are intel only so will they work on any board meant for the conroe no matter what company makes the board? Sorry for the stupid question but I need to make sure before I buy these! Thanks -Grog!

Hi. I am in the proccess of buying parts for my new computer that I am putting together for college and can't seem to chose what ram to get. I will be overclocking but not a huge amount.

Hi, While I am an almost newb at building computers, I have been floating arounf these forums for a while now so I have some idea of what I am looking for. Here is the important stuff: I have about $1500, maybe a little more if it makes a big difference, I will be overclocking for the first...

The cheapest place that i have found for gaming laptops is pctorque.com. I am very found of sagers for their sweet specs and low prices. They aren't as pretty as the more expensive ones but much less money which more than makes up for it. Grog

Thanks for the help. I was trying to open them without using anything. I would just type "/boot/grub/menu.lst" without anything eles. I tried to change it using "vi" which didn't turn out well and I spent 10 minutes trying to find out how to quit! I found out about a text editer named nano which...

Thanks for the help. Nano worked! I was trying to open them without using anything. I would just type "/boot/grub/menu.lst" without anything eles. I tried to change it using "vi" which didn't turn out well and I spent 10 minutes trying to find out how to quit! Right now I am going to try to get...
