n00b PPA question
Quote: 1000 to 2000 μF is a good range to stay within. You may want to use all nine positions if you're using caps with a low capacitance density, such as Black Gates, Cerafines or Silmics. i need to look into this power issue more .. damn n00biness- 3rdoptic

best surround solution??
i am going to sit back and wait to see what doom3 needs in terms of sound.. hmm just waiting on my av-710 for musical playback as well as DVD movies etc..i cant really justify a purchase of a soundcard (audigy2) just for some sound acceleration.. that wont take too many frames anyway.- 3rdoptic
