    Help! Having problems with my Soyo K7VME

    Just wanted to give my two cents that if your item ever breaks (very likely), you'll have very tough time getting RMA on the time. 1. Soyo started charging $5 "handling fee" for all RMA's. 2. You'll incur a lot of time and $$$ just getting to a live person to get a "reference no." which you...

    10 cup rice cooker 29.99 shipped

    My rice cooker broke down only after being used for one week. Also the warmer hardly works. It's more like luke-warmer, and the rice gets spoiled after a day, which doesn't happen with the fuzzy logic rice cooker my parents use. I guess it's time for me to get a Zojirushi...

    Coolest and Quietest HDD Enclsoure

    Hi. I am trying to find the coolest and quietest 3.5" HDD enclosure that is also reasonably priced. I have a Maxtor Plus 9 200 Gig Hard drive, and it gets really really hot. I've been using with a plastic IOMAGIC CDRW enclosure, and after a while, the HDD gets TOO hot to touch. I need an...

    Mini-ITX Flash IDE Adaptor $19.95

    Does using a flash drive (such as a Compact flash drive) as a HD shorten the life of the flash drive significantly? I mean, doesn't flash drive has a write/erase life of 10,000 or something like that? I was thinking about using one of these to store Debian with multimedia players (mplayer...

    [DEAD] SOYO SY-K7VME mATX Motherboard FAR [mWave]

    Hi guys. I got a new video card from Shentech.com (ATI 9100), so won't be using the onboard video card. However, on the bios, there are two settings related to the video memory.

    Budget Video Cards for Causual Gaming under $60?

    Update on this: I received both cards from NewEgg.com yesterday. I tested out and both turned out to be semi-defective. AtI 9000, after installing the latest drivers from ATI.com, I was tested out using 3dmarks. I noticed a flicker in about 1/5 of the screen..like .5 second. Also, this happends...

    Thanks everyone for your advices! I might actually keep both, because I got the Soyo motherboard for free (found though Hot Deals here in AT), and all I need is another Duron for a complete system.

    Budget Video Cards for Causual Gaming under $60?

    How much better is Sapphire 9600? Honestly, I would hate to spent $100+ for a video card. Maybe I am not a geek enough, but every single item on my Nforce2 computer is built from using cheap or refurbished parts! (motherboard for $35, 2X 256 Kinsgton for $10 each, $10 CDRW, $40 for 120gig WD HD...
