    RAID 1 Question

    I currently have a 400GB hard drive, which I use as my primary hard drive. I currently backup the most important files, but would like to have RAID 1 to keep everything safe in case of a hard drive failure. However, I was wondering, if I were to buy another 400GB hard drive and setup a RAID 1...

    DirectX 10 Estimate

    Is there an estimate for when DX10 cards will be out? I would think they would have to be out within a short number of months to be ready for Vista. I'm considering holding off on my Conroe system until DX10 cards are available.

    Asus P5W-DH Deluxe vs Gigabyte DS3

    Thanks for that information. Is anyone here using the DS3 with RAID? If so, did you have problems?

    Asus P5W-DH Deluxe vs Gigabyte DS3

    Is there any reason not to get the Gigabyte DS3 and instead go with the Asus? I was going to get the Asus specifically for the RAID 0+1, because NewEgg doesn't list that for the DS3, but after going to the Gigabyte website I saw that it really does have it and NewEgg was just wrong. I am...

    Core 2 Duo E6400 Cooler?

    I am going to wait a few weeks, but will ultimately be building a Conroe machine. I believe that I am going to go with the E6400, and I am going to overclock the chip. My question is, what is the best CPU cooler to go with to cool the overclocked cpu (I don't want to use liquid cooling)...

    Thanks, hopefully we will see them soon. Do you have any idea if they will have a PCI express x16 slot?

    Conroe MicroATX Motherboards?

    Does anyone know if we are ever going to see any MicroATX motherboards for conroe processors? If so, do you know of any model numbers and when they are expected to be released? I might be interested in waiting to buy my conroe system if I could get a MicroATX motherboard and build a really...

    the *OFFICIAL* core 2 duo midnight release thread 2.0!!!

    Is there a reason not to get the E6400 at Club-it (besides the delayed ship date)? It's even a good price.

    Asus P5W DH Deluxe all ready for Conroe out of Box?

    I'm not sure - we'll have to wait for people more knowledgeable to confirm it (and I would prefer it if multiple people did, just to make sure)

    Asus P5W DH Deluxe all ready for Conroe out of Box?

    NBAJ2K - I'm in the same situation. I'm probably going to end up just buying the board off of eBay, after confirming with the seller that it does have the Conroe BIOS installed. The prices on eBay actually aren't bad.

    the *OFFICIAL* core 2 duo midnight release thread 2.0!!!

    This sucks that they had to come out on the 27th. I have to leave really early tomorrow morning to catch a plane, and I need to get some sleep, so I can't stay up until 3AM (I'm on the east coast) just for a chance at these. I do have to wake up at 6AM (3AM PT), and hopefully either they came...

    When is conroe going to be released to newegg?

    The assumption that NewEgg will sell at midnight is just speculation, right? Or has someone at NewEgg said it will be out at midnight?

    MWave Milking Price when Conroe's arrive

    I really hope that the sites try and be competitive with ZZF, who has great prices on the chips (hopefully they can get a decent supply of them).
