my tv does have component I run my ps2 through it but i don't know if it's 480. my monitor has dvi but no hdmi which I think is weird considering it was fairly new (and a good brand) when I bought it.Quote:

Good. If the CPU can be made stable the platform uses DDR3 so that'd work nicely. You'd probably want to get a decent 16GB kit at some point though.Quote:

I think only Hi Scan and SFP supported progressive signals.
mine is a sony trinitron 12" I think it might be the KV 13FS100 on that list but I'm not sure. I do have a couple games that have progressive scan but I'm quite certain that my tv doesn't support it I'll check it though.Quote:

I had forgotten that my tv isn't 480p that's why I could never run psp games on it with my 2k but I could run ps1 games/Quote:

Something like this should work fine. HDMI into PS3, DVI into monitor.
CPU got here but I'll probably not get it tested today.
ah I was wondering how that was going to work. I thought it might be like the old vga adapters. wait wouldn't that only output video and not audio? since most monitors don't have speakers.Quote:

Yes :wacko:. I think you can still get stereo from the analog output but I'll have to double check.Quote:

Yar almost none of the games were native 720p. Like a couple low end sport games and arcade stuff. Same with the 360 I believe. It uses tricks and such to stretch out to run with 720p and up tv's etc.. Look at GTAV it had a weird internal ressy of like 540p or something weird and then just upscales.Quote:

Probably why Xbox 360 and PS3 games could be played on SD TVs without much problems. Though playing on a HD-TV, even a older cheaper one, it still looks fine in HD. Though playing PS3/Xbox 360 games on a SD TV, the graphics look squished, depending on the size of your TV.
Yar. Some were fine on a tv even a CRT that was capable of 480. Look at res 5 and 6 2 player, they look fine on an older tv in split screen but on a 720p tv and up the split is all fucked up. Weird. I think the internal ressies of a lot of games are set so that if they're multiplied by a certain amount they hold cohesion on higher resolution tv's if that makes sense. On mobile right now so hard to articulate what I'm trying to say.
I used to do that with my ps2 I ran the audio cables through a stereo so I could use my headphones.Quote:

I have all the drivers and stuff to run for 7 :wacko:. The Intel stock crapper included with it is too crappy to leave the CPU-Z stress test running but it was fine until I stopped it at 95deg. Ran through SuperPi once without any trouble. I just found where I stuck Prime95 and I'm going to give that a spin.Quote:

Errr, the only further testing I'd consider doing, I should say :wacko:.
sounds like something I'd check out.Quote:

Going to source cheap replacement parts to see if it still works. If the screen is fucked I'll replace that too. Wish me luck :wacko:
Mind the nasty little ribbon cables and it ought to be fine. It looks like they improved the internal layout.Quote:

No errors related to the CPU in Windows' event logs.
Repasted and re-ran the tests, temps considerably better (still lame).
weren't those digital only?Quote:

spikes? are those what hold it to the board?Quote:
