Guys, here noob a question:

Could I change my heatsink fan(so noisy!!) without changing to a new processor?
*
of course u can change it.. smile.gif
but just an advice, if u changed it to 3rd party hsf, better keep the stock hsf, dun sell it or lost it..it will be used when u want to send the proc to rma.. smile.gif

Hi all, want to ask a noob question here, does notebook using pc100 sodimm ram can use pc133 sodimm ram or not? can't find any pc100 on the market oledi, so will consider if pc133 can be used.
*
i guess no problem seems it backward compatible..ur PC133 will be detected/rated as PC100 smile.gif

noob question here... casing side panel air hole for installin casing fan should be intake or outtake?  and also the top surface of casing fan hole? intake or outtake? i wan to build a nice air flow system casing..
*
usually the front will be the intake while the rear will be the exhaust..
just like air coming from the front and blew out at behind..

and about the top or side, it depends on u..
usually i will make the top as exhaust, while the side is for intake to cool down my graphic card..

Okay bro, since you're the Sifu, let me ask you something, what about the sidepanel fan? hmm.gif

Yea, most casing put the sidepanel fan as intake, but as far as we all know, we know that Lian-Li casings put the sidepanel fan as exhaust.

What do you think bro? hmm.gif
*
perhaps LianLi made that design for a purpose of blowing out the hot air produced by graphic card.. smile.gif

but if we think logically, its quite 'bad' to suck out the fresh air that are supposed to be used to cool down the graphic card..

so, intake is better..at least we can cool our soundcard and mobo as well tongue.gif

QUOTE(xiong91 @ Jul 1 2007, 04:04 PM)
hmm...if the position of side panel fan is at the top left side leh? means at the position of Proc with a turbine.... the fan should be intake or outtake?
*
it should be intake, so that ur processor will be cooled down by a fresh air from outside

QUOTE(xiong91 @ Jul 1 2007, 04:04 PM)
how about the position of side panel fan hole is in the middle of side panel or bottom left(graphic card)?
*
for me it should be intake as well, same reason as above: for cooling down ur gc

QUOTE(xiong91 @ Jul 1 2007, 04:04 PM)
2nd ques... the Proc fan is blowing the air to the heat sink or sukin air from heatsink?
*
its blowing the air to the heatsink..

think logically, when u wanna drink something hot, u blow or u suck the hot air?
or when u feel hot, u stand at the front of the fan or behind the fan? smile.gif

QUOTE(Kidicarus @ Jul 3 2007, 12:20 PM)
Umm actually your explanation doesn't make sense.  What you want is to keep air flow in your case circulating, expelling hot air and sucking in cold air.  Since Hot air rises, what you need to do is make sure the exhausts are expelling the hot air as it rises to the top.  Front fans are usually intake fans because they bring in cold air from the outside to the bottom of the case and thermodynamics will take it to the top of the case where it can be expelled.  That's why good cable management makes such a big difference in the cooling of a case..  hot air doesn't get trapped behind obstructions and ill placed cards.
When you want to drink something the quickest way is usually to stir it with a metallic object (ie heatsink).  Standing in front of a fan works because the airflow is designed to be channeled through the front.  Imagine if you were sitting in a box with a wall to your back - all the hot air would just be blown towards you and get trapped in the back.  You would still feel hot because you would just have hot air being recirculated around you.  If you stand in a wind tunnel with no wall to your back, you'll be a lot cooler because there's no hot air to get trapped behind you.  That's why having an exhaust where your graphics card/processor is probably a best idea esp since those pieces are producing the most heat.

thanks for the clarifications smile.gif
actually im not very good in explaining this kind of terms..so i just explained in which part i did understand only, and using the simplest language i ever known..
and basically my explanations before was just a simple and basic example..

CAn u all tell me what is the difference between LCD-TV and LCD-Monitor?
Which one is better in terms of pic quality? From the price, why LCD-Monitor is more expensive? Ex. Dell 2707WFP.
*
i dunno much about the differences of it..but i have read about it somewhere, the picture from lcd monitor isnt very nice since it has a lower resolution..

sorry if my answer is wrong smile.gif

ya but i cant seem to find a connector on the gemini..theres no "hole" to connect anything..how?

there is no power connector from the heatsink la bro doh.gif
u place a fan there at GeminII, and then plug the cable from the fan to either ur motherboard or u power supply..

Erm, noob question here, whats the average temperatur on Pentium 4.

I didn't care about it befre, but right after I changed my MOBO, I saw that its arround 60 - 70 'C, is that normal?

When I am runnning virus scanning or others heavy task, it will boost up to 80'c, normal again?
*
same thing happened with my previous P4 3.0GHz..
what did i do is, i took out the hsf, and applied the AS5, then the temperature became 40~50C (still higher compared with my Athlon64 939 sweat.gif )

it's after Kelana Jaya Giant BUT before the Federal Highway / LDP Furniture.

yeah..if use LDP then just go straight...but if use the Federal Highway (from Subang Jaya/Shah Alam/Klang), need to turn left when we see the Pinang Bridge look-alike biggrin.gif , or Motorola Building (isnt it? tongue.gif )

does that mean its useless if we use DX10 gc with Window XP? unsure.gif
and we must use the Vista to pair it with DX10 gc?

Ok here is my question,my ram is ddr2667 running at dual channel.When I open my cpu-z is seems my ram frequency is running at 315 instead of 333.What's the problem.My rig is stated in my siggy.Thanks alot people as I'm still quite new to computers.
*
since u r using DDR667, the ram's frequesncy is CPU/6, where 2200/6 = 366.7MHz
so i guess either;
- u enabled the CnQ
- u set the divider to DDR533, which is CPU/7 = 2200/7 = 314.2MHz

i dun really care about those statement actually..perhaps when that enclosure came out, the highest capacity for hdd at that time is only 400GB smile.gif

weih guys. Got one stupid question here...
I'm using a Windows 32-bit now. And a 2GB RAM.

Is it adviseable to upgrade to 4GB RAM?? Since as far as I know... Vista / XP 32-bit will only detect up to 3.5GB. So will using 4GB gives any different... or perhaps it will makes my system goes awry?? hmm.gif
*
my POV: we dont really need the 4gb ram as for now, XP only detect up to 3.5gb and actually 2gb is already enough for daily life smile.gif

but if u thinking of getting another 2gb because the ram's price is getting higher, then go for it thumbup.gif
