hey Prince, I don't bother about how it looks... What bothers me, is that it's got 1001hp and 1250Nm of torque @2200-5500RPM, launching it to 300Km/h in just 14 seconds. 8) Maybe now you understand why we'd like to see the Veyron :wink:

Router NAT

Hey Guys, I keep having problems with my router when I want to unlock port-ranges because I have to enter each port manually and it has a limit of 20 entries (Sweex :?) Now I don't really know much about routers, but I suspect that when I turn the firewall(NAT) off, I'll automatically have all ports...

It depends on what you're used to, a friend of mine recently told me that FEAR was running fluently at 1280x1024 highest settings on his computer(Sempron 64-bit 3000+,512MB Ram, Ati Radeon X800GT), I looked at it and thought it was a slideshow...

Are you sure it's the harddisk turning off and not the CPU overheating and shutting itself (including the whole system) off? Overheating could also be a problem I guess. Try and run Motherboard Monitor 5 in the background with logging enabled and look at your log after it has shutdown. (It should be...

yup the Sony Ericsson w800i/k750i is a very good phone indeed. I once owned a Sony Ericsson s700i (which is the predecessor of the k750i) and the sound it produced playing mp3's was better than that of my Creative Muvo TX FM mp3 player! 8) Also, the SE w800i/k750i has got the best phone camera on th...

First thing I notice is the graphics card, a the radeon 9550 isn't really a good card for gaming, you should look for a good AGP graphics card, for example the GeForce 6600GT or the Ati Radeon x800GTO... You could upgrade the memory, depends on the way you use it, if you do a lot of multitasking 1GB...

I agree with Jmac, Fraps always shows me the right framerates. When I run Fraps while doing a 3dMark benchmark, the framerates of 3dMark and fraps are almost the same (+/- 2fps). I only use fraps for games that haven't got a function to show framerates though, cuz I still prefer the in-game option...

running dual gfx cards (AKA SLi mode) will bump the price up considerably. in order of performance you get Pci (<- lowest), then AGP, then PCI-Express.

the type of cables they use and the data transfer speed. SATA is obviously better and faster than IDE, but it's also expensive. SATA hard drives are usually used in enterprising systems, or mainframes. compared to an IDE, SATA transfer speeds are crazily fast. usual IDE hard drives operate at 33MBp...
