Ca3le will do thanks

Well my connection problems continue I phoned my IP for the hundredth time and finally got a straight answer Apparently the modems that shaw includes with its internet package are very " finnicky ". Something they forgot to mention in their add lol The lady that I talked to said the new modems will be availale in roughly a year. I said the PIMPIN computer was gonna be done in a year so thats OK So anyways what is a kick ass modem, and while I'm at it I might as well change my NIC cause that is probably a piece of shit too. I have looked at a few but as usual I need some help

Swimmer Real nice Specifications: Chipset/Core Speed: RADEON 9800XT/412MHz Memory/Effective Speed: 256MB DDR/760MHz BUS: AGP 1X/2X/4X/8X Ports: VGA Out(15 Pin D-Sub)+TV-Out(S-Video)+DVI connector Support 3D API: DirectX

Steve I would go to speedguide: https://www.speedguide.net/ Go to the tcp:optimizer which is under broadband, read the faq, then download the optimizer.To find your optimal RWIN use the DSLnuts calculator: http://www.dslnuts.com/bitsbytes.shtml You can use this test to determine how your tweeks are working: http://www.broadbandreports.com/tweaks Don't forget to back up your registry. Everybodys connection is different, you might hit the right RWIN number right away, or like me it might take 10 or 12 hours of tweeking to get the right settings, but either way it is worth it. GOOD LUCK Let me know how it goes

Thanks Guys I don't know what I'm doind so i think i'll pass on the oc it would suck to fry it

Swimmer I'm starting to put together a final list of comp parts I want to use What's difference between OEM and retail Yet another question from Curious George

Swimmer Looks wicked, looks like it wood be lighter than the Koolance stuff. If the temperatures oc ing were kept under control would there be anyother neg effects from oc ing. Another cool link Thanks

Swimmer Thanks for the rundown

Swimmer Ya that is a sweet case thanks for the post Question for you what is OC does my system have to be all OEM to be able to OC it What are the benefits of OC Curious George

Rahid 905 Have you tried cycling your modem that helped me when i was having problems If you haven't already try Vanburens tweeks, thread- calculate your RWIN under- make it faster.

SMASH CRACK BIFF That snowball just went through my neighbours house it's getting big allright

Rahid 905 What tweeks did you do, did you use an optimizer to do them

Ca3le Judging by this site tapitorslapit is gonna be huge Good luck with it, I can't wait to see what you and mrp have got in store

DAMN

Microwave EVEN BETTER You wanna share that

hahaha

No problem, see it is a good thing both ways, I get a pimpin computer and kraft gets a devoted customer for a year.lol

Swimmer I'm gonna be eating Kraft dinner for a year for building this, but that's ok cause it will all be worth it when i fire it up

But he would still be trying to figure out what a mobo was if it wasn't for the help of Ca3le, Swimmer, Mort, and Microwave. Thanks Guys
