    The Ultimate Desktop PC! I need help picking out parts

    lol I already made one a long time ago. I made one on newegg and I basically spent as much money as possible. I got quad-core intel of course. Two water cooled 8800GTX for around $1000, a $300 motherboard. 4 gb of the fastest RAM possible, 1kw PSU, A $150 case(Cases are overrated :)), sound...

    help. i can't seem to log in to check my grades online

    remember there are some sites that don't support firefox yet. tell her to use IE. I agree with chupacabra, it's probably the firewall. She might want to download the latest java and stuff like that.

    *Note on Vista - Regarding Service Packs*

    People will get use to the glossy look. After 3 months of the same theme, you don't care about 3d flip and features like that. It's just a selling point.

    Question about embedding vids YouTube

    I know some people don't let them embed it on other websites. I don't know how, but it's possible to say "nah, you have to see it on youtube!"

    How to erase my traces at 100% with a government comp.?

    wow you think they would spend a lot of money trying to find out you've been to computerforum.com. I mean if you are selling stolen wepons on ebay, then think of a professional eraser or your own laptop.

    Firefox

    Microsoft wants you to use IE. They want to pull you away from the open-source community. :)

    Why are LGA 775 mobos more than AM2?

    I think there should be a project done to research whether it is more cost effective to add RAM, increase RAM speed, increase processor speed, increase HD speed, etc. All in a performance to money ratio. You see, I don't know how much DDR2-800 vs 667 is going to increase speed. That is why...

    Why are LGA 775 mobos more than AM2?

    The problem with this is they are not ddr2 800. I guess I could go for 667, with a faster processor core 2 duo. Thanks for the comments though.

    Laptop Screen Size

    I would go with a 15.4 or a 17. With the 17" you can show it off to your friends. So I think I would go with the 17". :)

    Very true. I have the money, but I'm not sure I want to surpass $700, but I'm reconsidering... Thanks for the advice. I don't think I'm going to change the PSU because I like giving the underdog a chance to show his product. (weird trait of mine. That's one reason none of my stuff works :)

    Why are LGA 775 mobos more than AM2?

    I don't plan on overclocking. I want stability more than performance.

    Why are LGA 775 mobos more than AM2?

    I'm building a computer for under $700, but I can't go with Core 2 Duo, because for a reasonable LGA 775 you have to spend 100 bucks. With AMD x2 you can get one for 60 or so. I just don't understand why LGA 775 are so much more. I understand they have a little bit more FSB, but it shouldn't...

    windows\system directory

    Why are you interested? I know there are programs for editing the directory. I personally wouldn't mess with it, but that's just me. :).

    Thanks for the feedback. I have heard good stuff about Xion, but they must of been talking about their case. About the Duo Core 2... I am sort of on a budget, and probably fetch $20 for the CPU, but I was having trouble looking for a cheap motherboard. So instead of just paying $20 extra I...

    Best comp. for $700 (first build)

    I want a computer for mild multimedia stuff and one that can handle a big load. I'm sick of my 3 year old dell, 512mb ram, 30gb hd, 1.7ghz computer. I would like an amd computer around 3800+ or 4200+. 1gb ram, 2gb plus. 200gb hard drive. An O.K. GPU. I would like new components that won't...
