as all newer mainboards do only have one(!) connector for pata devices (which is probably used for optical drives),
pata for harddisks is really outdated

They are right with the performance of 8600GT. It is barely better any better than 7600gt. I personally am going for a 7900gs and throwing on an HR 03 onto it. In Canada, 7900gs with hr 03 is roughly $20 more than gigabyte 8600gt and is a more powerful and more silent option. I have heard that the ...

I have to completely disagree with your comment on no one needing a 600w PSU. Dual core + CF/SLI + 3-4 HDs will require 600w pretty quickly. Thats not a rare setup either. Just an expensive one. In german magazine c't they tested "high power" psus and measured they power usage with dual cores cpu a...

Why the hell do they test efficiency at full load? None of our computers needs 600 Watts, what is the use of 80plus for the home user when efficiency always stays under 80% (or even 70%) at typically low loads (<50Watts DC). Instead of working on the problem with efficiency on low loads simply bigge...

I dont have a laptop so I was never really interested in saving power. I'm much more interested in reducing heat and noise. Saving power needs should also mean reduced heat and noise ;) So if there's no "easy" method to implement vcore settings along with c'n'q, is there a programm that can simply ...

Hi, I've bought a Seagate 7200.9 160Gb SataII that replaced my Samsung SVN802N. What can I say? I'm completely fascinated by this drive, put in a bitumenbox( http://www.silenthardware.de/forum/index.php?showtopic=4827 ) I can't hear it (by now :wink: ). Rest of the system is inaudible as well (dista...
