    Did I just open a massive security vulnerability?

    I am not sure why you can't share without doing it the way you did? I have my Cable connection running to a wireless router so my wife can get internet access on her laptop. I also have it setup to share the printer and files as well from computer to computer. All you really need to do is...

    AMD Opteron 165 CCBWE 0550 UPMW overclocking

    Sounds like my chip(055). Past 2.4 and core 0 fails with in seconds of prime, once the temp hits about 43-45c. I am assuming better cooling will make it a little easier but I don't feel like spending the money for one. I am running stock now, with 1.2-v and it runs about 30c idle and handles my...

    Damn dropped my opteron 165!!!

    Wow, that sucks man, lol. I dropped mine last week when I was going to remove the IHS. Once it fell, i decided on not even bothering taking it off, because my luck wasn't looking so good. Luckly, I didn't bend anything. But my heart was pumping hard before I seen the screen post up.

    EPoX EP-9NPA3ULTRA

    I just ordered this board yesterday. How well does it perform, any complaints? I plan on doing a little overclocking, did you all have any problems? I will be using 2x1GB G Skill sticks. I can't find much information on this board, on the web. Figured I'd take a chance and try it out...

    Placing order tomorrow morning. Final build.

    I know it has to get old seeing these topics, but just like you when you built your PC, you wanted to make sure you had the best bang for your buck PC. I have been spending 2 weeks reading/chaning parts around and around and around, trying to find the best parts, for a reasonable price. With...

    New system build, hard drive question

    As long as it plays smooth after the game loads, I will be fine with that for now. Will it effect any ingame performance once it's loaded up is my question I guess?
