<r> Haven't been around in a while but thought I would drop off my new desktop, haha. Same as always; super minimalistic. Got some new hardware: Q6600 @ 3.6ghz, 4GB DDR2800, and a Gigabyte-P35-DS3L motherboard. And I also moved to XP x64, definitely worth it for the speed increase. <br/> <br/> <IMG ...

<r><QUOTE author="Red Squirrel"><s>[quote=Red Squirrel]</s> The higher end suff may increase performance but in most cases you probably wont really see the difference, exept for an extra couple 100 bucks missing from your account.

<r> If your PC takes DDR PC3200 just buy another stick of DDR PC3200 off of newegg, or you could even buy a 2GB dual channel kit. What games are you trying to run?

<r> I thought dual booting Linux with grub was going to be difficult and dangerous but it wasn't. Heres what I did:<br/> <br/> I already had Windows XP Pro SP2 installed, so I got my Debian CD and installed it when I got to the partition phase it listed my Windows Partition and I left ~40GB of free ...
