Re: Modding a Dell...

Because money doesnt grow on trees. If your looking for practical computer experience, just remove the current heatsink, and reapply it. :)

When I used to use Dells a few years ago, I upgraded the heatsink just because it was something fun to do, but in retrospect all I got out of the experience was the actual experience of playing around and learning... you can probably do the same for the price of some exra thermal grease.

I said I have all the parts, I dont need additional money or parts, besides the PSU Dell converter thing. Im saivng my money for my new PC that Im gonig to be building:

Conroe E6700
Nvidia G80 series
Raptor X
GamerXstream PSU 700
2 Gigs RAM
Custom WCing

I would rather mod this Dell then have it sit in my closet. Like I said, I wont be spending any money on it except $20.

P.S: I already have it taken apart, with the motherboard, video card, etc already out the case. The case is taken apart, washed with soap & water, and ready to be spray painted tomorrow.

Dell owns Alienware.

Alienware is a rip-off.

From what I've seen in your posts on the forum, you have A LOT to learn before you need to try liquid cooling.

Just posts showing your general knowlage about computers. BTW you shouldn't use the fluid XP, your paying an outragious price for something that will lose it's non-conducive properties over time.

So what's your current liquid setup?

My posts? I just wanted to know if you could install heatsinks on Dells, since Dells have a lot of compatibility issues.

You cant judge someone by the posts they make. If I were to judge you by the posts you make I would say that you dont, or never had, a girlfriend or any type of friend. But Im not judging you, am I?

I know a couple of people with some Dells that will make you wet your pants, so keep talking.

to the OP, no you cannot overclock witha Dell Bios. Next, what do u mean can u put a heatsink on your CPU? If you don't already have a heatsink on your CPU how is it not frying?

I had a dimension 3000 and replaced the MOBO with one from a 4600 so I could get the AGP bus port, worked like a dream.

Well, if you had read all his posts you'd know that he's married and has a baby.

I asked if I could change the Dell heatsink with a different heatsink since there are compatibility issues with Dells.

That is a completely unrelated example. Yes you can judge someone's intellegence by the posts they make, however you cannot judge their personal life. (BTW nice try at a thinly vieled insult)

I was basing my assumption of some of the following:

Also, could you overclock a Dell? Is there any program that will do it, becuase Im pretty sure you cant do it in the BIOS.

As for overclocking the CPU, will programs such as ASUS probe work?

How would it not be compatible

You mean like 24-pin/20-pin, or the voltage on the rails, or whether its a micro-ATX case or just an ATX case or what?

Just a sampling. I don't mean any offence to you, it just really doesn't sound like you really know what you're doing.

Two of those were software related. You got me on the last one though.

You can judge someone's "intellegence" by the posts they make as much as you can judge their personal life.
