    This card is actually old news considering that Inno was one of the first companies to have GeForce2 cards on the market. I should know I have a PCI version of this very card.

  • Dust, and why it sux

    The CaseJunkiez have an interesting article up on Dust, Computers, and You. They suggest the best way to keep dust out of your case is to place filters on your intake fans. I actually went down that road once with my original case mod, I found the filter to be restrictive and ineffective.
    Then again I was using the foam style filter which was a bad choice on my part, pantyhose tend to work much better.

    Now here is a GeForce 3 card after my own heart. The Red PCB is just to hard to resist, plus it would be the perfect match to the FWD-P3C4XD motherboard that is in my system currently. Don't know how well it performs though I'd expect a par rating to the other offering.

    Now where to get one.. hummm

    Iwill has extended its DDR line of motherboards to include the P3, and not only for one processor but 2. The board even came with a couple heatsinks and fans as an added bonus.

    Now if you will remember the layout of this motherboard is poor at best but from a performance standpoint it does quite well, for VIA.

  • New Banners

    Well I've refreshed my banner ads. I never really noticed until today but just about every company that had an ad on my site is no longer in business. I guess that is what I get for not paying attention.

    Speaking of paying, never mind that never works.
