I was looking for a case for a small backend file server and I found this:
Black low profile case w/ 180W PS
There are a couple of downsides to this, one is it requires a slim cd/dvd drive from a laptop which can get pricy( I don't plan on having one). The other downside is the special...
I found this while looking around at Circuit City's website. Reviews seem to be good and the flaw with the previous model is said to be fixed. Also from what I remember Hitachi is a great brand in TV.
Hitachi 50VS69
The TV is 999 and you can get it to 899 with the 10% off coupon on ebay. I...
I came across these in the SVC clearance section. Probably cheap quality, but good enough for a budget build.

I got this in an email from Tigerdirect.com. I checked around and didn't see anything posted already. It seems like a good deal to me, not a seagate with a 5 year warr, but for $50 with a 3 year warr that is not bad.
I am switching over to a Qpack micro atx case for convienence and I have to change my mobo. I am currently running a p4 2.8 and I was noticing that the athlon 64 3000+ are priced pretty low, the same price I could sell my p4 for. So I am thinking of switching over. I am just getting confused on...
I have been thinking about switching to a SFF for a while now, just for the convience of it. I have some questions before make the leap though. I have been considering the Aspire X-Qpack so that I can keep most of my current components. Which is basically my P4 2.8, 1 gig patriot DDR400 ram and...
P4 2.8 512/800 @ 230 FSB
Epox 4PDA3i-3
1 gig Patriot Signature PC3200 ram @ 230FSB 3-4-7 2.7v
Sapphire 9600 XT 256mb
So I am pretty happy with my overclock, I just want to make sure I am not minimizing my performance some how. I can get the ram to do 3-3-6 at 5:4 and I am wondering if that...
I want to be absolutely safe with this and really don't feel like frying my cpu so I figured I would ask. stock vcore is 1.525. Would I be completely safe at 1.6? I read that 1.65 is the limit, but my board won't even go that high.I mean there is always the chance it will go, but I just want...
So I am overclocking my machine and I have managed to get a 225fsb and into windows . It however will not run prime 95, it errors out after a sec. It will however run super pi and 3Dmark ( as long as I don't alt tab out of it). It seems to be completely stable in windows though. I tried upping...
I set the FSB to 225 and boot up and it sees that change in bios and saves it. I see it on the post screen as being 225mhz, but when I get into windows it is at 200 again. I checked with cpuz and sandra. I even loaded up memtest and it says 200. So I turned off watch dog and that did not help. I...
So am looking to get anything from the 2.4c and up. It is between the 2.4 the 2.8 and the 3.0. Basically I want to make sure I get something I can overclock safely. I can get the 2.4 for about 90 and the 2.8 for 105 and the 3.0 is about 130. So which one will get the best performance. I realize...
Well I started trying to overclock a 1.7 p4 I had only to find out they were poor at OC'ing. Unfortuantely for me I am a determined person. So I got a p4 2.26 for cheap and tried to oc that. Same problem, would not be stable at 10% and anything after it wouldn't boot. Well I looked into it more...
Heres the story I recently purchased a 2.8 p4 and 6 chips of 512mb ddr400 off ebay. I payed $175 for and was just planning on keeping the p4 and selling the ram. Well the guy screws up and it is actually a 3.4 SL793 northwood. I found out this thing goes for over $250 0n ebay. So I am thinking I...
I had a mx400 and I upgraded to a 9600 pro advantage. All went well I could play battlefield 2 with no problems. I went to play Diablo 2 and it would not load, just kicked back to desktop. So I got the latest video driver and reinstalled Diablo and I was able to get in and play for 10-30 mins...
I just recently got a p4 3.4 northwood SL793 and I need a new motherboard. I will eventually want to overclock so I want to get a board that will have all the options like vcore/vdimm voltage and agp lock. I also want dual channel. I had heard good things about epox and was considering this...
I recently bought a 9600 pro advantage, it was cheap, and it plays battlfield 2 fine, but I tried to play diablo 2 and got direct 3d errors. I saw that it was still recognizing my old card so I reinstalled. Same error so I got the newest driver and it started to play. Now I rewatched the whole...
