The DigiDoc5 has proved itself a handy tool over the past few weeks. As Motherboard Monitor has yet to implement nForce2 sensor readings, the DigiDoc5 stepped in and actually gave me something somewhat better – more temperature readings, continuous voltage monitoring, and all without taking up desktop space or system resources. Don’t get me wrong – MBM is one of my “must have” system utilities, but the DigiDoc5 complements it so well. No more leaving games to check system temperature when it’s blazing hot in the computer room, no more wondering what the extra load of another hard drive is doing to your system voltage; it’s all right there, at your fingertips.

Today we’ll be taking a look at 256MB PC2700 DDR from Crucial. How fast will they run? How far can you push this stick of RAM and maintain full system stability? That is what the purpose of this review. Lets find it out!

Well a thermal compound shootout Sounds exciting? Well maybe not for the normal user but overclockers gotta love it A thermal compund is something you put between the cooler and the CPU core so it transfers heat better and that of course gives you lower temperatures. Nanotherm was nice and sent me 4 diff ones and I had some Artic Silver 3 to compare with since Artic Silver is the leading brand on the market now. Well lets roll with the review..
