Usually 2 sticks are marginally quicker & puts less strain than using 4 slots of equivalent memory. Personally, I’d go with any 2GB kit (2x1GB), doubt you’d regularly utilise more than 3GB of memory with your current system.

With the exception of overclocking, there's no real benefit going with faster RAM frequency than what your mobo can support or CPU FSB & in your case that's 400Mhz (assuming you have DDR2 & P4 or better). Although, RAM is quite cheap now so there’s no harm in getting the best 4GB (2x2GB) you can afford, as they are backwards [frequency] compatible & you can always use it in your next system - provided AMD mobo’s don’t also start pushing for DDR3 to become mainstream anytime soon :P.

No madaz it will not.

Your best choice for gaming with a controller on both 360 and PC is to buy a microsoft WIRED xbox360 controller. They are a great controller and work really well on PC.

You can buy the wireless xbox360 controller but then you will also need the wireless receiver.

pkblade when u getting ya 4870???

Finally got it on Tues :D ...went with the MSI's OC version, pretty happy with it so far. Although while I was DL the latest driver I noticed MSI have already released the HD4870X2 OC :). Might wait for prices to go down, currently they're priced $650-750.

So who uses VoIP?

I've been with MyNetFone for quite some time now and really can't fault their service.

Signed up via the MyNetFone whingepool/whirlpool offer. $4.95 per month for 60 free national calls untimed then 10c untimed national and 15c per minute per second billing.

We don't use the phone a great deal but still manage to save a good $80 per month as we often make national and mobile calls.

I'm on the Home Line Budget $19.95 Helstra plan with ADSL2+ from Internode.

For those that are shopping ensure you run a quick traceroute to the sip server you are looking at to ensure the routing isn't stupid from where you are located.

MyNetFone from Internode in Adelaide is ~40ms away with a traceroute you couldn't improve.

Don't buy an ATA device that plugs in to your modem as a lot of modems suffer what is known as a NAT bug; splash out another $40 or so and buy an All in one modem/router/wireless/voip box.

Preferably a billion 740x as they work well and are easy to configure.

i used to use engin for VoIP... service was ok but they were bastards when i went to cancel (having worked in a cancellations call queue with a major ISP i I know whats what with T's & C's, i got his TL on the phone and gave em what for hehhe the dude was highlighted for a "coaching opportunity" LOL ).

I'm also on node adsl2+ wit homeline plus

i had a free zyxel ata that i procured from work.... the GUI is completely counter-intuative on those things

did get delays tho, i tested it bay haveing a mobile fone convo at the same time... it was noticeable

yeah nice work Nick - I remember seeing some of your earlier work on those models and even then they looked the bomb!

Hey Bezender - you need one or 2 of these:

Dual external hard drive case (click)

Benefits

Inbuilt fan - my HDDs stay even cooler than they used to when inside my Matrix VX

Its own power supply

Can take the SuperBox with you and connect it up at a mates place with dual E-Sata for speedy data sharing

One or two of these might be in order too (click)

    • The frontend wouldn't go low enough because the coilover was max low and the upper control arm would collapse into itself and potentially bottom out in the strut tower. I made a brace and cut off the kingpin and then moved the upright down 1.25" and welded. i still have to finish but this gives an idea. Now I can have a normal 3.25" of shock travel and things aren't binding. I'm also dropping the lower arm and tie rod 1.25".
    • Motor and body mockup. Wheel fitment and ride height not set. Last pic shows front ride height after modifying the front uprights to make a 1.25" drop spindle.
    • Here's Logans Silvia with R32 Drivetrain, mine will be slightly lower (more angle). He was constantly blowing the RH axles at around 16deg. I want to avoid this.    
    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.
