    Outpost: Ultra X-Connect 500 watt Power Supply $24.99 A/R

    Bought an XFinity from another member, 600 watts. He bought it brand new and it hadn't been used yet. You could tell it was new and hadn't been unwrapped. I ended up selling it to another member 2 weeks later and I never installed it. Had too many psu's. The other member installed it...

    Overclock a S754 3400+?

    I'm running a 3400NC on a DFI 250Gb with a XP90 just like you. I had a gig of Mushkin 3500 LII in it and couldn't get it to clock up that well. Put in a set of OCZ 3500 ELGX and have it running at 2.7 with my ram at 1:1 2-2-2-5. I had to use a divider with the Mushkin to get the clock speed...

    Hot or Not

    I've got 4 comps sitting next to me right now, typing on one of them. This one has an X800XT PE in it on a DFI 250Gb. Another 250Gb box has a 9800XT on it. Another a DFI UltraD with an EVGA 7800GT CO. The other an Epox mobo with an EVGA 6800. If I were to rank these boxes as far as real...

    Sapphire (OEM) X850 XT (PCI-E) at the Egg for $233 (NOW $223 shipped)

    Hate to be a party pooper, but I'm running an X800XT PE in one box and a 7800GT CO in another box and there ain't a whole lot of difference. And the ATI card is agp! Yes, the bench marks are very different, but my eyes are seeing what they are seeing. :P

    Logitech MX518 - $33 shipped @ ClubIT

    I got one of the 518's when NE had them for 31.88 + .99 shipping and really like it. A buddy of mine wants the Copperhead for Christmas and I can't seem to find any deals on that at all. At 1600 dpi, mine is so sensitive I don't know what I'd do with 2000. :P

    X850XT 256MB AGP for 249.99 AR microcenter.com

    Hi all. I'm running one of these cards in one system and a 7800GT CO in another. This card is the best agp card I have ever had. I just put a 6800GT in a friends comp and compared the 2 side by side and much preferred this card. And even though my other system will beat it in benchmarks...

    WOOT for 12/16

    Thanks Op and keep posting. I had never even heard of woot until I started seeing the posts here. And you are actually providing 2 services by doing it. Letting people know what they have and giving the whiners something to whine about. :P So think of both as a positive. The more they...
