Seasonic is one of the better brands out there. I can't believe the free ship!

Apparently it was a 2-day deal. Rebate was good for orders only thru June 23rd.
Been using an EP-9NPA+Ultra for about a year now with 1 SATA drive plugged into SATA1 (the first port). I'm leaving the existing drive as the boot drive. I just recently got a 2nd SATA drive to use as a "D" drive. Not using RAID. Wondering if it matters which SATA port to plug 2nd drive into...
I bought the flashlight cheap on eBay, but it had a Luxeon 1Watt LED bulb in it, powered by 3 AAA batteries. The bulb broke when I screwed the lense cover on too tight (bad design). I'm thinking about replacing the bulb with a 3Watt Luxeon bulb (I see someone is selling also on eBay), but I...
I just checked out the "The ULTIMATE Motherboard Selection Guide For New Users". Very informative with a lot of good posts.
My current mobo supports only AGP but I got a heck of a deal on a Radeon X800 128MB PCI-E (thanks to Anandtech's HOT DEALS forum!), and now it needs a home. The...
I want to buy DVD media (single or dual layer) for archiving massive amounts of photo images. Does anyone know what brand(s) are the best and degrade the least? Have there been any reliable tests to predict how long data can be safely stored on different brands of DVD? Any help much...
I'm looking to possibly buy a ATRIX 4in1 Combo CSCI-L8003-C43 Black/Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 480W Prescott Version Power Supply - Retail. But I want to use it for an AMD 939 motherboard. From the Pics it looks like the power connector is 24 pin, but in 2 pieces. Will this...
I've been asked to build a PC for a pro-photographer who is just getting into digital photography. They bought a 12MP camera and as a result need a much better PC. They use mostly Photoshop for their SW app. They'd also like to use dual monitors. They don't have any use for a 3D card. I've...
Background:
I have a Linksys Firewall/Router BEFSR41, a Linksys Wireless-B BEFW11S4, and a Motorola SURFboard SB5100 cable modem. I've heard that having a hardware firewall is better than any software firewall (don't know if this is true or not). I was just using the BEFW11S4 from the...
I'm in the process of upgrading my PC to be more quiet.
So, for the power supply I just bought a Seasonic S12-430 (great PSU!) which is supposed to be one of the quietest PSUs according to various reviews and forums. It has connectors for 3 case fans (3-pin), one for high speed, two for...
I want to buy an external HD enclosure USB2.0 and saw these BYTECC ones at Newegg today:
Newegg BYTECC ME-740U2B
Newegg BYTECC ME-350U2
I looked on the mfg website and they mention nothing about its chipset. Word has it that Cypress is prefered, but probably costs more. Anyone know...
:confused:I?m trying to connect an optical drive (DVD-ROM) to my HD (Maxtor Diamondmax 120GB 7200RPM 8MB)) on IDE0 but the darn thing won?t post. PC boots up fine when only the HD is hooked up as master on IDE0. I already tried setting jumpers such that HD is slave and DVD is master, but same...
I've got 2 nForce2 motherboards that failed within the last 6 months due to leaky capacitors: :disgust:
Epox 8RDA+
Winfast K7-NCR18G
I've had both mobos for about 1 year now. I thought at first maybe the cause was insufficient cooling, but the Epox case has 3 case fans in it, and both...
"CF" as in Compact Fluorescent, not Compact Flash!
My local power utility is having a rebate offer for CF bulbs, so I bought a boatload because they were essentailly free after rebate. Now that almost every incandescent bulb in my house has been replaced, I have a bunch of working, but used...
I'm shopping around for a decent new power supply. I've read good things about SilenX & Zalman, but don't want to spend that much. Something under $70 (after shipping). And < 25db would be good, although companies don't seem to list any noise levels. Also looking around the 400W range...
I just bought a Visiontek Xtasy Radeon 9100 Pro 128MB DDR AGP 4X yesterday because it was cheap, and was wondering what low-end graphics cards are comparable to it. I've seen very little out there as far as reviews and tests for the ATI 9100 Pro chipset in general. Is it camparable to a...
My 20" IBM P200 CRT is dying and so I've recently been researching 22" CRTs. Surprisingly, there's not much out there for 22" CRT reviews. Then I just read the Weekly Buyer's Guide: Cutting Edge System - March 2004, and noticed the recommendation of the Philips 202P45 22" CRT monitor. I have...
