    8 pin CPU connector

    That is good to know! thanks! I'm going to try it then with just my 4 pin and my antec 550. This will be a very budget machine, 8600GT one sata HD, one ide optical, 2gb ram and an e2160 and yes the next piece will be a newer and better power supply. Thanks again NoelS

    8 pin CPU connector

    I am thinking about my next upgrade but looking at the mobo that I want it states that it has a 8 pin CPU connector... my current Antec only has one 4 pin CPU connector. Does this mean that I need a new power supply too?

    onboard audio question

    Sounds good however reviews of SupCom shows that it is a very CPU/RAM/Video hungry game and it may sound petty but every little bit of optimization that I can do with what I could afford I want to seek out is all. I'll bet if I did a real world side by side I wouldn't be able to tell while...

    onboard audio question

    I just placed my order for a much needed upgrade as my current rig is 4.5 yrs old and have a question about on board audio. So back when I built my current rig on board audio was cpu heavy and didn't sound that great. I've read that both of these issues have gotten better as todays on board...

    Answered: If CPU speed = Multiplier × FSB, why is the FSB rating on new processors so high?

    Sound advice MarcV, and thats what I'm doing... the wait is hard mostly because the saving time is long for me, but I know I'll be much more happy with better components all at once. for the moment I'll keep using my dated P4 3.2 northy and my x800xl. Not only will I have a better experience...

    Need advice on $100 video card

    Agreed, I think the non widescreen ver of the 2007 would look best match best.
