    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    Thanks for all the replies. My power supply is on the bottom and blocked by a the floor of the case (faux BTX style). I am thinking I may need to get a new case if I want to cool this effectively. I like the Antec P180 but would need to get a new power supply as the OCZ Modstream's cables...

    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had any HSF recommendations for this board. I am currently running an E6600 on it in a Lian Li PC V1200b. I have my old XP-90 on there and it idles at 53C. Not good of course. I bought a Zalman 9700CNPS but it doesn't fit in my case. I would like a nice...

    Motherboard and RAM to match c2d 6600

    Hello all, X-mas has come early for me. My manager let me have a system pulled E6600 C2D (no HS+F, just the chip). No i am not kidding and no it wasn't a five finger discount. It would have been discarded. Anyhow, my current system is listed in my sig below. I am basically looking for...

    X-Fi question

    Hi guys, I've got a question. I currently have an Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro card. The card is starting to go. I hear cracks and pops, etc. As much as I don't want to buy another creative card, they are still the best on the market. I don't currently use the front bay with my Audigy2 card. I...

    Trying to find the sweet spot

    Hello all, I am looking for a card that performs beyond it's $$$. I need something that will play World Of Warcraft at a res of at least 1280x1024 (maybe 1680x1050 if I decide to upgrade her monitor) and be able to handle a raid environment (if you play the game you know what this is). At the...

    File load time/web load time benchmarking tool

    Hello all, At work I've been tasked with benchmarking how long MS Word 2003, MS Excel 2003, MS Powerpoint 2003 take to open a file of a varied sizes. I was wondering if anyone out there had knowledge of a benchmarking tool (needs to freeware/shareware) that would time this. I've used a nifty...

    Transfer RAID from MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum to Asus A8N-SLI Premium

    Hello all, I know I am asking a completely retarded question, but is there anyway to move a RAID 0 array from the nvraid on the Neo2 to the Asus A8N Sli Premium? I just got the Asus and really don't feel like reformatting. I know I sound lazy as all hell, but I am addicted to World Of...

    Asus 7800GTX TOP

    Looks like Asus is getting into the factory overclocked game with their 7800GTX TOP. Looks very interesting. The dual slot thing doesn't bother me but I can see how it would bother most.... anyway, here's the link: Asus 7800GTX TOP

    Speculation: 7800gt==>7800gtx

    I was wondering this same thing. It would be huge if this was possible. Rivatuner apparently unlocks them but then when you restart, they are once again locked. I am sure it's only a matter of time. Right now, I am having a hard time choosing between buying the somewhat vanilla MSI 7800GTX...

    BFG 6800 GT AGP card overclocking

    The card is not currently overclocked. Nothing is wrong with the card and I leave it at default freq's now so I do not need to replace it. Did not think of it as fraud but I guess you're right. I remember I put an aftermarket heatsink on an Abit motherboard's south chipset (was having some...

    BFG 6800 GT AGP card overclocking

    Hey guys, first off, I've read a bunch of posts about O/C'ing these 6800 GT's to ultra speeds. I went out and bought the BFG 6800 GT. Out of the box it's clocked at 370/1000. With the drivers I had a the time (non-whql 77.72) I was able to O/C it to 400/1100 just to bench it in BF2. I did...

    Looking for a good multifunction laser

    We use these at work and so far so good. I don't know how much the cartridges cost but they do a decent enough job at scanning. You're always best off getting a full time scanner though.

    DVI KVM that supports 1680x1050?

    Hey guys, I've looked all over and the max resolution I see supported for DVI KVM's is 1600x1200. Is there any chance anyone knows of a KVM that supports the Dell 2005FPW's resolution natively via DVI? I know I could hook it up VGA but who wants to do that!!? Thanks in advance! -redfive

    Opinions/comments on Lian Li v1000b

    I have the V1200B...just got it actually. I have the OCZ ModStream and was initially a little worried about the leads not reaching but for the most part, they reach just fine. I have the XP-90 and it fits perfect. As far as the one case fan, I doubt very much it will be a huge problem. This...

    Stuck in RAM

    Hey guys, I've posted here before under a different name, but it's been so long, I can't remember my password! Anyway, I have a serious problem with my system. It seems like the RAM won't "clear" on shutdown. I know I am in need of a bad reimaging, but I don't know if it's going to help...
