I'm lost. Are you saying this RAM is going to be 5-5-5 on every mobo or just the DS3 ? I've ordered this because the crucial site lists it at DDR2 - 800 4-4-4
Thank you very much ! Awesome deal. I almost bought the PC2 1000s which went out of stock at mwave, but i really dont need anything faster than ddr2 800.
Awesome!
Microsoft remote looks nice. I've always liked microsoft when it comes to ergonomics. My favorite keyboards and mice are always microsoft. I like that remote, and the sideshow feature. I've got my htpc connected to my projector, so it'd be very convenient if i didnt have to turn on the projector...
The reviews on the Thermaltake on newegg are not "almost" flowless, they ARE flawless :) 22 people gave them 100%.
This one is 650W versus Corsair's 620W and it's cheaper and without a rebate.
I ended up getting it and I think i'll keep it. Happy so far.
For people who are curious:
I've installed mine last weekend. It's the quietest i've owned so far, quiter than my old zalman. I'd be curious to see how it compares to the Corsairs, but i like mine so far.
Let me tell you though, the modular cables, are not so modular. You end up using almost...
Which is not a remote control, just a display device, right? I'm also looking at the new Philips ones. They look good, but i'd like bluetooth instead of IR. I did have the microsoft IR keyboard and remote, and i wasn't happy with performance.
Thanx!
I've been reading about this unit in many places. I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post, but does anyone know if this unit is available? and where?

I received my Mushkin's yesterday. The same problem occurs when i plug them into slot 0 and slot 2.
they only work on slot 1 and 3.
if i install all 4 sticks, only slots 1,2 and 3 work.
I think my motherboard's slot 0 is problematic.
When you say "better", could you elaborate on that please? Is it quiter? I see it has a bigger fan, but i haven't seen any real comparisons. Is it more efficient?
I'm in the market for a new power supply and i was waiting on a good deal on the corsair 520, but this one seems like a good deal too.
A friend of mine bought the same memory on P5B deluxe. He had issues at first, but when he applied the 104 bios update, it was ok. His problem was the motherboard was recognizing 2GB memory although he had 4 sticks of 1GB.
I think it's a good memory, but like i said i ordered the mushkins...
I've read that the 8-pin is for dual cores. I've got a E6400. Does that mean i have to connect the 8-pin power supply or is 4-pin connector also fine?
If I have to connect 8-pin, then should i buy two of those 4-pin extension cables?
Thanks again.
Thanks everyone for their input. I do not want the power cable to go around the video card. I'd like it to go around the motherboard and come down to the plug.
I also noticed the cpu power plug is 8-pin on the motherboard but the cable is 4-pin on my existing power supply. Is that a concern...
One other question: I've got the Antec P180b case with Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard. It seems like i'd need a power extension cable for the 4 pin 12V cpu power connector. I've searched for it with no success. Do you know where i could get it?
I'm concerned about heat and noise in my pc. I've narrowed down my search to these two power supplies. I do not even need 520W. I'm not running SLI, but i might in the future, and I like the quality of these units.
I'm wondering if the 620 would be running cooler in my system. Then i'd pay the...
I went with the Buffalo Firestix. I had issues. I RMA'd them. I'm RMA'ing my motherboard, too, though, i've got a corrupt bios chip based on ASUS tech support. I've ordered the mushkin ddr2-800 CL4 sticks.
I'll let you know when i get them if you can wait.
I followed the instructions on the booklet to clear cmos. now it's worse. I can't even get past the jmicron screen.
i see no asus splash screen. cannot get into bios by clicking "delete" and cannot go into windows.
It's just stuck at the jmicron screen.
dear god...
I'm using a 7900GTO 512MB with a 550W psu from Allied. el cheapo from my old system that i carried to my new core2duo 6400 setup.
I'm having motherboard / ram issues at the moment, bu it's early to blame the psu for that. still investigating.
If you pay with paypal, with paypal coupon "paypal10" you can get free shipping. Save another $5.
I'm between these and the Mushkins. Can't decide ! Price and performance seem close.

Anybody have experience / suggestions?
I will try that tonight. Could my power supply be causing my problems? I've got a cheap Allied 550W power supply that i grabbed from my old system. I'm waiting on a good price for the Corsair 520W.
I also have a memory problem. I've RMA'd the sticks. I've got another thread for that.
I had...
Something happened and I can't get into motherboard bios anymore. When I boot I see a blank screen with a cursor blinking, then the JMicron message showing me my IDE DVD drive and then it says "press any key to continue" , the name of the IDE device keeps blinking in blue in the meantime.
I...
Update...
When I try only one module, system does not boot. I installed the modules in every combination. I always get 1GB total. Do I have 2 x 512 stix indeed? how do i tell? i couldnt find it on the motherboard bios options
I installed two sticks of 1GB, the famous buffalo PC2-6400 modules from newegg, but my motherboard recognizes 1GB total memory. I don't know where to begin, can someone experienced tell me what the possibilities are so I can try this evening?
Thank you very much.
The chasis intruesion jumper is missing from my motherboard ( I ordered the open box version of P5B Deluxe WIFI. Everything else was included to my luck )
however it's missing the chasis intrusion jumper so the bios gives me system halt, and doesn't boot.
Where do i find a jumper to fit...
Being the cehapie that i am i jumped on the deal from newegg on a P5B deluxe OEM without thinking my way through. I now realize I'm lucky that i have the i/o shield and the cables, but I'm missing the screws / nuts to install the motherboard to the case.
1. Would my case (antec P180b) which i...
The card looks different on newegg than any other retailer including sapphire's page. It's got an all red cooler in lieu of a white one that appears on other photos. This card claims to have hdcp as well. I am wondering if they really mean HDCP or just hdtv ready...
Anyone know why this card...
Why is this card so cheap? I'm looking at the becnhmarks. This card is serious. What's the catch here? No rebates....just plain very cheap...looks like an awesome deal.
That looks like a good one too. I turned 90 degrees and decided on the Antec p180b. I decided that good ventilation and thus silence is more important than looks, plus i dont think the p180b looks bad at all. It will be a good match for the scythe ninja as well.
Thanks all.
I noticed you're using a Scythe Katana. I'm inclined towards the Ninja. Do you think it would fit? It seems like ninja is 150mm high and the case is 160mm high. would 1cm difference suffice?
Thanks
Thanks for the info. I was actually looking at the Origen as well, but I couldn't find a thorough review of it. HD160 was recommended by silentpcreview.com.
I would never be using the volume knob, so i could easily live without it. I actually do not like it's position, being in the middle of...
I'm building a C2D E6400 with Asus Deluxe P5b wifi and buffalo firestix. I'm now on to the case. This will be a media center htpc. I'm inclined towards this case Zalman HD160. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience about heat issues. There are reviews out there showing temperatures but I...
