    Socket 939 Fan Retention Clip Changed?

    I was curious if anyone knows where one can get a new fan retention clip for the socket 939 mobo? I have an ePox EP-9NPA Ultra, with a thermalright XP-90 heatsink. I recently upgraded to a opteron dual core with the intention of saving the life of my mobo/memory for a bit longer, but was...

    EVGA 6600gt for $108 #*DEAD*#

    Well, seeing as how "John" the supervisor I spoke with over at RebatesHQ.com was quite rude to me, I will definetely be fully pursuing this matter with them. I don't want to see microcenter having to be the one to deal with the rebateshq problem (unless they are all the same company, which i may...

    EVGA 6600gt for $108 #*DEAD*#

    Has anyone received any information on their rebate for this card yet? We're now ~2 months after, and I am having some problems with them. I received a card in the mail telling me I didn't provide the UPC (yet I did, triple checked the envelope before sending). So I called them, and...

    EVGA 6600gt for $108 #*DEAD*#

    Mine also shipped, but I'm nervous about the rebate still. I am going to call again and see if I can get any sort of comfirmation from either rebateshq or microcenter on it. Answered my question about 30 seconds after I posted this. If you look up the rebate code now, it has been adjusted...

    Looking for CPU fan for Epox 9npa Ultra

    I was looking into the thermalright 90/120. From what I've read around the forums it seems the 120 is a little bit quieter, while the 90 performs a little bit better (also, is there a n oteable difference between the copper/non-copper 90). I am trying to decide which one to get. The main...

    3200 venice OEM - $139 @ ewiz

    I just got mine today (Well, tried to deliver 2 days ago, but I am lame and wasn't home). Does anyone have a good recommendation for a fan? I am looking to do some slight overclocking perhaps, but noise is my #1 concern. I have a P180 case, and an EpOX 9npa ultra - I looked through the...

    e-wiz

    I just purchased a Venice 3200+ from them... I accidently put the wrong city (Just moved to La Mesa from San Diego, which in retrospect is basically the same place anyway), and had the right zip. Anyway, they were kind enough to call me and find out if I messed up my zip code, or my city. So...

    EVGA 6600gt for $108 #*DEAD*#

    Does anyone have any experience on the turnaround for MicroCenter's backorders (or any information on this specific backorder)? I suppose as long as they get it to me by the end of the rebate period I'm fine, but I have gathered parts for a new build, and would like to actually get it up and...

    2 -> 1 PS/2 Adapter Problems

    Not that I don't believe you (Especially since I am seeing the issue I am now), but the only reason I disagree is that the thinkpad specifically advertised the fact that you can use a splitter in order to use both devices. Frustrating that it is not the case. I am returnign to fry's today to...

    2 -> 1 PS/2 Adapter Problems

    I could definetely see the laptop being the issue. However, I am hoping the issue is just the cable itself. I have since called IBM technical support, and did my best to get the tech support guy to track down all their documentation of "their splitter", but it doesn't seem he had any available...

    Notebook Hosed?

    I have no clue what to do. I have an hp pavilion ze1250. After getting a nasty virus today, I decided to reformat the computer. However, I neglected to remember the thing shuts itself off everyonce in a while. However, i have no clue why it does that, it's obviously something hardware...

    I am currently running an older Celeron 1.7 Mhz processor, remnants of an old emachine. Everything else around it has been replaced, have a MSI Max 845 PE motherboard, and a thermaltake fan attached to the CPU. I am trying to get my CPU to run cooler, but I'm not sure if it's so hot because...
