    5/3 valve "O" ring

    To Atad: Yes, it's possible that I use this valve outside it's default parameters regarding speed of gas flowing through it. Regarding direction of flow, there should not be the problem IMHO. Even if flow is too fast I have to do something to make those valves work. So It would be best if I have...

    5/3 valve "O" ring

    I have few 5/3 manual valves (1/2" connection) that give me problems with inside "O" rings. When there is fast circulation of air through valve, O ring's are sucked out of their positions. That is problem with few out of 15 valves. Others work ok with same conditions. I hope that...

    SW 2001+ vs. SW 2002

    So, once you buy SW then you get all new versions of SW ?

    SW 2001+ vs. SW 2002

    In short; Is it worth waiting for SolidWorks 2002, or is better to get SolidWorks 2001+ now ? Is SW 2001+ only version between 2001 and 2002, or is it some package with advanced functions that come only in "+" version's ? When SW 2002 should came out ?

    best video card?

    What about ATI Radeon ? Little offtopic: 1. Can dual display (output on 2 monitors) be useful in application like SW ? 2. Is it better to have lot of RAM on graphic card if I don't use any textures ? How much is enough for res. 1280x1024 in 32bit color ?
