    If "normal" ram boots but not this, then it sounds like RAM voltage is not enough. Try increasing it by 0.1V and check for stability. You memory is rated for 1.8-1.9V

    The Core i7 thread :)

    ^Can you tell me the prices of those motherboards as well. I am interested in the MSI Eclipse but one guy in thinkdigit forums had that mobo die on him and said that many Eclipses were dying. Do you know if this issue has been resolved?

    Any 5.1 Headphone with REAL bass?

    ^If upgrading now means upgrading to another stereo headphone pair, I might as well hold off the upgrade for some time, thank you. Hopefully, some company will realize the "patheticness" of the rumble/vibrations in place of true bass and release a 5.1 heaphone that is any good. Perhaps, I might...

    Any 5.1 Headphone with REAL bass?

    I was looking for a multi-channel gaming/movie headphone a few months ago and bought a Razer HP-1 headphone. But I was bummed by the lack of bass -just skull shaking vibration in its place. I didn't particularly notice this in games but the lack of bass was evident in movies and mid-night music...

    'Puter speakers for <20K

    Well, long story short: I bought the Z-5500. Short story long: I went to ritchie street and saw a temporary logitech speaker stall outside Lotus and I thought to myself that this was my lucky day! I caught my first (live)glimpse of the Z-5500 and damn, that sub is HUGE! I've seen it in a few...

    'Puter speakers for <20K

    ^That was a great price. There was also a z5500 one day sale in the hot-deals section for 15k. @raj_pol, good point. So, today is the big day for me. Is bajaao the only guys selling AE5 in India? Anyone selling them in Chennai? I had sent an email to Bajaao regarding this...

    'Puter speakers for <20K

    ^When I said I can pay more, I didn't mean extra 20k :P Besides, that sub isn't listed in bajaao. Any other subs I can buy for a budget of ~5K? On a sidenote, I'll probablybe buying a new computer table so that I can have the speakers at ear-level instead of having them on the top shelf...

    'Puter speakers for <20K

    So z5500's bass(or boom) situation can only be corrected upto a certain limit, acording to some gurus here... Right now, my preference is leaning more to the AudioEngine A5 than on z5500. This is despite it's lack of 5.1 channel and a sub. Can I have a sub with my A5, please? Anyone hear of such...

    'Puter speakers for <20K

    @Wingzero, So tweaks can reduce 'boom boom'? Any z5500 owners can confirm? @SidhuPunjab, I already have, what I think are, a good headphone(Razer 5.1) and a good sound card(xfi prelude). So this budget is for speakers only. @The Alchemist But AEs lack a sub! I am sure they have bass, but I am...

    IC : Heatsink Lapping Kit

    One of every kind for me, please! Thanks for this (possible) GO. I bought a kit from frozencpu but it "ran out" even before I could get a good result with my HR-03 plus. But the flat piece of acrylic(I think) it came with will be helpful now.

    Audio Engine 2 vs MX5021

    Would you guys consider it a considerable upgrade, going from an ATP3 to MX5021s? I am mostly upgrading for the extra bass. Is there any other considerable 2.1 speaker upgrades with that comes for around 6 ~ 8K?

    Audio Engine 2 vs MX5021

    I currently have an ATP3 and was toying with the idea of upgrading and I was wondering the same thing too. Can anybody lucky enough to have listened to both these speakers comment on how they stack-up against each other? I am into clean-yet-shirt-vibrating kinda bass, if it makes any sense...

    PC Peripherals Where to buy Auzentech Prelude?

    Since I can't submit a feedback because this is not a deal thread, I am posting my feedback here: Without katmandude, I would've paid an arm and a leg for my Auzentech prelude! For that matter, even the Arctic Clean products and thermal tape were a good buy from him. I also felt relaxed knowing...
