    Looking for Intel board with SLI suggestions

    Sylvanas, that 750i seems like a good suggestion. MSI's slots are too close, but I'm thinking the EVGA might be the best answer so far. Anyone have experience with this board? I'm seeing mixed reviews...some saying it's a great overclocker, others saying it's a pain.

    Looking for Intel board with SLI suggestions

    I've been away from the scene for a while and my wife's computer just bit the big one (old AMD T-bird about 8 years old) so I'm looking at handing down my current rig and upgrading my own. I've been looking all over, trying to find a motherboard to suit my next build and been having troubles...

    Corsair Value RAM PC3200 CAS2.5 1GB (2x512MB) DC KIT - Today's Price $76.50

    I ran CPU-Z again to double check, I can post the verification from that when I get back home for all interested. I haven't touched the memory dividers so I believe it should be getting this at 1:1 on my Asrock sataII.

    Corsair Value RAM PC3200 CAS2.5 1GB (2x512MB) DC KIT - Today's Price $76.50

    Been tossing around the idea of getting some high performance memory, but with these prices, it's hard to pull the trigger on the more expensive stuff. I've already got a gig of this in Opty 165 machine doing 260mhz at 2.5-3-3-8....it would probably be smarter to just get a 2nd gb. I'm...

    Opteron 165/AGP recommendations?

    Thanks for the info guys, the ASrock appears to be a great board from what I've heard, so now I've got one on it's way. I'll be thrilled if I can hit 2.4 with it for now, which sounds like a decent possibility.

    Opteron 165/AGP recommendations?

    I do plan to do some overclocking....but if I can only get a moderate clock for now, that's fine with me. I'm planning on this being a temporary solution so I can slowly aquire my memory, mobo, PSU and vidcard.

    Opteron 165/AGP recommendations?

    Due to a moment of weakness, I have an Opteron 165 on its way, but I need to find a decent motherboard to partner it with....fast! I'd like to find one that will run my X800GT AGP, Corsair 3200, and 520wt TTGI 20-pin PSU. would the ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 or ASUS A8V Socket 939 VIA K8T800...

    I'm looking for a little help trying to determine how to fix an issue I'm only having in games. I've just got a new x800gt, and fresh windows reinstall with the latest Omega drivers for my video card. I've been playing HL2 and noticed that in game, most of the color is missing...IE, the...

    Thanks for the link, that page cleared it up very well! Looks like it's a no-brainer to me....x800gt is clearly a faster card.
