    Newegg not in the 4-22 game?

    Thanks for the replies. I have dealt with Newegg on 5 ~ 7 builds over the past 5 years or so and have always had good results with them, that's why I was a little surprised (disappointed) they hadn't listed yet. They always have whatever I need in stock and have given me 110% support when I...

    Differences in Pentium D / Core 2 Duo

    Hey all, I've been out of the loop for a couple of years on technology, I haven't built or upgraded a system since '03 or so. My wife's cheap-o Athlon XP 2600+ system just died (mainboard) and it got me thinking about building a new system rather than trying to repair / upgrade our old stuff...
