after 3 years, there's probably a good amount of dust gunk on those fans. You'll need to dust it off cloth and canister blower. Try that first before replacing fans. A good source for quiet/quieting parts, but not cheap: www.sharkacorp.com

Cleartype works well on DVI mode LCD monitors, less well on analog mode LCD, and doesn't work well with CRT's. Anybody know what ATI GPU is powering the Colorgraphics quad AGP card?

One year learning curve? My hats off to those you are referring to, and to yourself should you achieve success in that time frame.

those dual DVI cables for the Matrox can be had for US$25 (per 2 head) on ebay brand new. Colorgraphics is just about the only solution for your multiple DVI UXGA setup, but you're going to pay up. I suggest waiting for their AGP versions. Alternatively you can use multiple PCI cards with...

of all the post in this thread, I'd re read alfonso's reply. His analysis is blunt and to the point; I fully agree with what he is saying. While points #1 and #2 on alfonso's reply will not stop you from going ahead, point #3 will show itself from the get go; actually, it will show itself...

gdz, you need to look in your Bios settings to see if there is such an option. I have a P3 laptop, which gives me that function, but my chip doesn't have speedstep. Also, make sure your laptop feet is deployed to get better air circulation.

I thought about running cables before finding my solutions posted previously. You will run into problems extending digital signals, such as USB devices, and especially DVI cables to your monitor.

I'll have to second the above poster. I also have the Zalman heatsink/fan. And that is the ONLY fan in my entire rig, so it's totally silent. The Barracudas are great too, fluid bearing...silent. No fans on my G200MMS or my motherboard. Oh, there is a fan on my power supply. It's totally silent...

Mr.D, here's an article on your Samsung giant LCD's: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,717229,00.asp And in it, it says "Perhaps more interesting was the huge, 40-inch LCD that's currently shipping. The Syncmaster 400T sports a native resolution of 1280x768, and at nearly...

I had an unusual motherboard? My unusual motherboard works on a Matrox G450, Matrox G200MMS, ATI Radeon 7500, but not the Appian Rushmore. When I got the card to work on a different board, the Rushmore would not work with my Viewsonic VG191B 19" LCD. Is that an unusual monitor as well? I should...

BCE, thanks for being helpful and providing the links to purchase the legacy card. When you say 'it is supported', my definition of support is support today with the technology of today. That means at the least support for Windows XP; go to the Applian site, there is no XP drivers for...

Only 10K?!! I guess the resolution would not be higher than QUXGA. Since the LCD is catered to the TV market, I also doubt it will have a higher than 1080 HDTV resolution. Which just means the pixel size would be large, probably >0.3.

MrD, probably what you want is that Sam 40+ inch LCD. It should have a really high resolution. Care to guesstimate the price? A 22" IBM T221 which is a QUXGA-W screen, the highest resolution available thus far, cost around $9K. Of course, as the screen size increases, the price rises...

MrD, no you cannot substitute any single large size plasma for your monitor. There is not a single Plasma screen of any size that is capable of doing SXGA or 1280x1024 or higher. So that 50" plasma can display at most, what a 191T LCD can display, but of course, you'll have to sit very far...

Jeronimo Pro may be a good card as you contend, but why do you go about advising someone to buy a card that is no longer in production and without support plus the fact that it will not run in digital mode (both the Rushmore and MatroxG200MMS are DVI capable)?

BCE, "It seems that people have a bias toward Appian or Maxtor depending on what they have." I had both cards. One came out a loser, that happened to be the Appian Rushmore. I gave specific advice and detailed specific problems with the scpecific card, not a generalization based on theory...

habari, I guess you didn't take my advice I gave you 9/14/02 documented here: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8489&perpage=6&pagenumber=3 All that wasted time and effort for yet another victim. Appian Rushmore, more like Appian Nomore. Going to your...

IBM has a QUXGA solution on this page: http://www-132.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=-840&langId=-1&partNumber=6659HG2&storeId=1 It says digital support on Fire GL4. I believe that would be an ATI brand. And if you look at their 22ich T221 QUXGA-W model, which...

you're welcome Dave. Tom, there is no such thing as a VGA to DVI adapter. There is only a DVI to VGA adapter.

What you want is a Gainward GeForce4 PowerPack Ultra/750 XP Golden Sample. Based on the Nvidia GeForce Ti4600 with dual DVI output AGP4x.
