;DJust bought cheap keyboard from PC World £4.97 and as you can see its working. Have to hit the shift key to change to lower case.
Any thoughts on cpu or monitor. Had a look at tft flatscreen monitors,the resolution and contrast ratio vary quite a bit .
cheers

No idea on CPUs reallly, specific Intel CPUs ain't my thing.
TFT monitors are all about what price you want to spend, then looking up the best for that price. Any colour brightness above 400 nits is a bit pointless and an easy way to get contrast ratio higher it to increase the maximum brightness.
So yeah, 20 inch wide screen 1680 x 1050 monitors are pretty cheap these days it seems.

tks.
ran a test on c-net to see if agp pc would run vista.
http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-3672_7-6671810-1.html?tag=more.vista
seems like the mobo is running the p4 in duo mode. ie from 3.oghz up to 4.52ghz.
Dont know how reliable test is.
On broadband tests(tried several usa/uk) average 4000+kbps down and 390kbps up.
Since I changed the case fan around cpu temp has dropped to 34deg and fan speed abt 590.
However Everest shows chassis fan speed at 2000rpm. 3X120MMcase fans, one plugged into system fan connector plus fan on card. Would this be a total speed for the 3 fans?. getting great air flow through case
cheers
Quantum:
I've never ever trusted Everest statistics, but 2000rpm isn't unusual.
I use Speedfan a lot and CPU-Z to check other computer specifics.
I'm not sure what you mean about up to 4.52 GHz? The only way to get netburst to clock that high is to use something like liquid nitrogen cooling ;D.
texasboy:
will try to get a print out link posted shortly. But reading the report from C-NET it shows the p4 running as core 2 duo.(or dual core??) which might mean 2.26 ghz per core available.or 3.0 +1.52 extra
The link I posted needs to be changed as would only apply to whatever pc which clicks on it.
cheers
