Thanks for the suggestions everyone!!

Thanks Slugbait. I was looking at the drive that has my recent clean install of W7 Ultimate and the majority of the apps on my laptop that will also be installed on this new build and it's @ 27GB. Would I see a noticeable performance difference using the Black over the Raptor as my OS/App drive...

I'm trying to figure out the best HDD configuration performance wise for my new build that will be coming in on 12/15. I have a 74GB SATA Raptor and a WD 120GB IDE 7200 on hand with a WD Caviar Black 750GB coming in on 12/17. I was planning on using the Raptor as the OS/App drive and the Caviar...

Hi Aravot, Best Buy carries the Viewsonic A90F+ which will have a similar display compared to the P95F+. I too was considering the P95F+ and went to Best Buy and checked out the A90F+ and I was very impressed with its display, even compared to the LCDs displayed around it. Ordered mine on 11/24...

BUMP Anyone using the GA-8IEXP?? It seems to be very well priced with all the options. Or should I wait for the new ASUS SIS 648 board to come out?? I'd appreciate any input Vlad

New to this forum so I'd like to say hello to everyone. I'm considering switching from AMD to Intel and from all of the reviews I've read the Gigabyte GA-8IEXP seems to be the best board with all of the options. On the AMD side I've seen problems with Gigabyte's boards (KT333 board in...
