Motherboard monitor... http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=311 I have it and it works great. It monitors you cpu temp and case temp. I recently bought a fan that went up to 3500 rpm, and this thing is LOUD! I removed it and replaced it with the older one, since this thing seriously sounds like a real vacuum. If you're going to get a hard rive, make sure you buy one that is SATA compatable, and is about 7400 rpm. Anything below that is super slow. Also, make sure it has a 16mb cache. Personally, if you're into gaming, I would go with Western Digital, since they have really fast HDDs.
that motherboard monitor doesnt have my motherboard listed anyone know of another one? somemore info about my MB, http://www.logicalplus.com/inforgathmop.html says its a IntelĀ® D845GVSR Chipset Thanks Kevin
that one didnt help either, i guess my MB just doesnt have way of checking, cause theres nothing in BIOS either kevin
Waymon3X6 there r no 7400rpm hard drives or 7500rpm hard drives so update ure sig to 7200rpm hard drives
Sorry bout that man, it's an old HDD, so I was to lazy to look on the cover to see the rpms, so I just guessed. Btw, I dont think you're allowed to do that... I think you should've pm'ed me or something.
