There's absolutely no money in web based languages in the UK these days - and I expect the rest of the world to follow, essentially because any monkey can hack together PHP code (no offence to any fellow PHP monkeys here ) There's still...

Heh - well the thermal threshold for the 7900GS is 110C! Madness I tell ye, madness. I'd not like to see mine hit 90C personally, as that's gotta be roasting any nearby components quite nicely. 85C is my personal limit, which is why I...

Yep - all ATA drives have the same pinouts (like a tiny version of the normal ATA connector), SATA 2.5" drives use the same connectors as the full size brethren, so you can easy tell them apart. And good call on the height - I'd...

High 50's, low 60's under idle for me, unless you have a GPU intensive screensaver (i.e. a Direct3D or OpenGL screensaver), that raised mine to maybe mid 60's. Gaming anywhere from 70-80 depending on the game and amount of overclock. I...

Heh - nah, I just had time on my hands I'm tempted to get some 400MHz RAM and see what the difference is, but I suspect it wouldn't be huge (maybe a hundred or so 3DMark05 points), and not really worth shelling out on the RAM twice over.

3 years ago I'm not sure SATA 2.5" drives existed Easiest way to double check is to remove the drive and google the product code, that'll say for sure.

Heh - that looks absolutely identical to the one I just bought As long as your existing drive is IDE (well, ATA) and not SATA then that one should work fine.. All of the drives I've tried (a new 80Gb, 3y/o 60Gb and much older 10Gb)...

Nope it won't cause any problems - it'll just show up as another drive same as your CD drive, Windows (or OS/X for that matter) won't care what's on it And yep - that's just what I did I have an 80Gb external that has some music and...

Yep - the easiest way to do it, in fact.. The enclosure ought to work fine - they're all much of a muchness, although some very cheap ones only support <40Gb drives. eBay usually has uber cheap enclosures for sale - I bought one...
