What do you recommend for a middle ground server for running as a Debian file server / Samba domain controller? Opteron? MB, etc.. an entire system build.
We currently run a Dell PowerEdge SC1420 Xeon system that expereincing some issues and we want to set up some redundancy. No budget as of...
I just finished building a brand new system and everything was going great till the LG updater updated one of my DVD drives and now only one works out of the 2. The second one that works also was updated but after rebooting works fine, the other will not even respond to trying to open the door...
Does it matter if no fan is connected to the assigned cpu fan connector on the MB? I just picked the Asus Maximus Formula and the Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme cooler and added the Scythe SFLEX 120mm fan to keep it cool but going through a mock install I noticed the CPU fan connector on the...
If it was my machine I'd firstly see what temps I am running in stock configuration then if I am still seeing hotter than normal temps then proceed to focus my attention on why. Maybe the stock cooler itself is not properly seated or just junk.
Is there an advantage over either processor? They are relatively equally priced but not sure which one to order. They are both at 2.4Ghz. I just picked up a new MB and ram for my build which consists of Asus Maximus Formula SE and 4GB Patriot DC 800mhz, so I'm looking for advice on the...
Thanks Trashman. I am having one issue now that its up and running. It's as if the BIOS does not know how to boot the computer on reboot or coming out of the BIOS or pressing restart. When I restart from the OS, it doesn't reboot, same if I go into the BIOS and save settings, screen goes blank...
Thank you for that, I had just found it. I'm retarded I forgot there was a CPU power supply wire to attach. This is actually my first build in sometime, my last build was a P3800 and there were no seperate CPU power wires, first time I've come across that. Once I connected the wire it went into...
Well I'd thought I'd surprise my dad for Fathers Day by updating his computer and just received all the parts from TD. Had to run out and pick up a ThermoTake 430W supple because his old system does not support this newer 939 system. I couldn't afford alot but ended getting these new pieces...
Ok heres my dilemna. I purchased this laptop new about 4-5 years ago for approx $3800. It has been well looked after and is definitely fully featured but for the first time in its life has failed. I sent into the toshiba repair facility and it requires a resister board. The board is $484 and...
Well the panel arrived but would definitely tell CDN or International buyers to forget about buying through Sundialmicro. Shipping alone ended up costing over $40 because they use UPS as their service. When ordered I thought it was United Postal Service, so my fault.
The panel from the...
Yeah I'm not really asking for much. A stable workstation that can run AutoCAD, play some games, connect Serial equipment (legacy connectors), supports IDE, firewire 400 and at least stay current for at least for some time.
I don't care if it has power windows and air conditioning just as...
Can someone tell me what is so good about this board? Wouldn't you rather have the 680i technology, what does it offer?. MB change so quick I really can't keep up with it all. I'm really confused with what to buy, years ago it seemed to be a no brainer but now I have no idea where to start, I...
This game was an impulse buy and I'm finding it difficult to move around and understand. I was hoping it would be easy to learn as DoD, Call of Duty etc, but just seems like a difficult game to master.
As well does it require a super machine to run, really laggy to some extent. Just...
Thank you Zepper, appreciate the information. I ordered the black /green windowed version from SundialMicro for the Wavemaster since it looks identical so will take a chance and see if it fits my case. If not will pick up a Wavemaster case later on for another build.
I've been wrestling with which platform to go it with, AMD X2 or Core 2. Now I know this topic has been discussed to death but it seems the majority of the answers are right now Core 2 but this is the dilemna.
I don't build a new system very often in fact last system was a P3 800. Technology...
Can anyone tell me if it its possible to replace the side cover with the intake hole for one thats solid? I heard somewhere its an option but for hte life of me can't find anything relevant.
Thank you.
Can anyone tell me if this workstation board will still work for gaming as well. It meets all my needs for a workstation board but wondering if I can get away with having fairly decent game play as well.
Anyone have any experiences with this board?
I have been thinking about building a new rig for sometime, in fact my last machine was a P3 800 so it's been awhile. By chance I had to pick up a repaired computer for my work and left with a new Coolermaster Praetorian 730. I'm most likely going to order a Coolermaster iGreen 500W PSU.
I...
