    PC Power PIII base systems - why so expensive???

    Has anyone purchased a PIII base system from PC Power & Cooling before. Why is it so expensive?? I still can't justify the price. Btw, The Tyan Trinity 400 motherboard costs about $100 retail. Is it a good buy for a stable P!!! system? (I'm not an overclocker).

    EN-7237 vs. PPC Personal Midtower

    Waaay overpriced? Are you sure? It doesn't have a power supply and it's about $10 more than an Enlight 7237 w/o a power supply. But I think the PC Power P/S are expensive though.

    EN-7237 vs. PPC Personal Midtower

    EN-7237 vs PC Power & Cooling's Personal Midtower Are they basically on the same level?? In addition to the power supply, would I need to put in a mechanical switch to use a baby AT motherboard in either of these cases? How do I know if a motherboard or a P/S is a Baby AT?

    Some ENLIGHTenment please?! EN-7237

    From the Enlight website, I gather that the general model name for them is 7230. The 7237 is only one of them. I guess the main difference is the front cover. I'm having trouble finding the 7237 on certain wesites though. I see various model numbers like 72370XA and 72370MA. Is there any...

    Thanks for the info guys! Googlegear.com - I forgot about them. Thanks for reminding me. It's a tough choice to make, but I think I'll go along with the Enlight.

    Some ENLIGHTenment please?! EN-7237

    I know the SX830 is among the best but it seems to be unavailable. I looked at the EN-7237 and these were the notable cons from various reviews: 1. motherboard tray riveted to the case 2. noisy 3. cover is difficult to get back on 4. drive rails (lead to instability??) Is the Enlight that...

    Phone cord question

    I just noticed that my modem has 4 wire contacts for the phone cord, but the cord only has two contacts. Does this affect performance???

    Fan Direction???

    I have an AT style mid-tower. Which way should the fan at the bottom of the case blow - in or out?? Keep in mind that the CPU is right behind it. Thanks
