    MB recommend for PC2-6400 mem and Micro ATX?

    I really haven't set a budget. I've been picking up components as I find deals on them. I bought a TV turner card, and a DVD burner a while back on a deal, and I've got this left over memory. Have been watching for a nice HTPC case, haven't jumped on that yet. I want something that's quiet, and...

    good article, both of their budget systems use the 6400 memory and the intel setup actually has an HDMI output rather than VGA. Although I've already got my VGA cables in place.

    I don't have a processor on hand, so I guess whatever will mate up with the memory I've got. All the machines I have now are Intel, but this one will just be an HTPC. Are either processors better at that than the other?

    been wanting to build an HTPC I've got 4GB of PC2-6400 memory sitting around doing nothing. thought if I could marry up a board to use this it would be great. anyone have suggestions? Don't want to blow the bank, but don't want a crap-o system either. thanks

    ***DEAD*** Abit IP35-E Motherboard $69.99AR ***DEAD***

    I've got an Intel BADAX board that's acting up, what if I slipped this one in, just moving all my drives, memory, cpu etc. over? Would I need to reload software or would it crank up and run OK?

    Mattel Hot Wheels® Radar Gun $9.99

    I've always wanted a portable microwave emitter to toy with those who use radar detectors. Wonder if this one puts out enough to set them off 100 yds away.

    Newegg always nails me with tax and most of their deals are AR, so unless it's a really good deal newegg is a washout. This deal is great, no tax and reasonable shipping. Usually I get their stuff in one or two days.

    2GB Single Module (1x2GB) Patriot DDR2 667mhz PC2-5300 for $80 - $15 MIR = $65 + Free Ship

    since no one else is answering I googled and found this: http://www.devhardware.com/c/a/Memory/Dual-Channel/ looks like it will work fine. I also saw some info from Intel indicating the same thing.

    2GB Single Module (1x2GB) Patriot DDR2 667mhz PC2-5300 for $80 - $15 MIR = $65 + Free Ship

    So if I get two of these will they work as a dual channel kit? Is there a difference in buying a single stick as opposed to the two stick kits? I need 4GB BAD!

    Not sure? I/O Magic 48x16x48 Internal $20 AR @ OM

    The only thing identifying on the inside on the PCB was LTR with a number and below it was a revision number. Guess it's probably not then.
