I just did that before running memtest. Cleaned up all the dust too and added an extra fan on the heatsink. Memtest finished with no errors.

Symptoms: Randomly reboots sometimes, or sometimes just freezes up. Freezes up as in the screen is stuck as is and the mouse/keyboard doesnt work. I have to hit the reset button. I assumed this was the power supply, that was the first thing I swapped out. Did not help. Next was a fresh...

So I come home and get on my computer and notice that I cant find C:/ drive anymore. The programs that are already open start crashing if I did anything with them giving various errors about how "C:/filename could not be found" etc. This was totally random and its the first time that it has...

I wanna pick this up, but I dont wanna pay 200+.... Is it realistic to expect this to drop in price once more retailers start selling it?

It would help you if posted a link.

I run a 3 monitor setup now with a 5850 (dvi/dvi/displayport). So if I get this z68 board, I can attach the displayport monitor to the dvi port on the mobo and have it work fine? Will it work fine in an eyefinity setup for gaming?

Awesome stuff. I'd take you up if I had Patriot RAM.

I opted to go this path. Thnx.

Newegg has both of these on sale for about the same price. I am buying up for my upcoming SB upgrade, so which would be the better buy? I was planning to buy up 2 sets for 16gb total. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231416...

I need to be able to use the quicksync (video encoding), support discrete graphics and be able to overclock the processor, and as far as I know, only z68 can do those.

I'm in a similar situation and my plan now is to wait till next month till the z68 chipsets hit and then upgrade. Probably going to splurge on a 2600k though.

Before putting a discrete card in, my RAM score was a 5.4. I put in a cheapo Geforce 210 card and my RAM score jumped to a 7.5. Desktop graphics score went from 4.4 to 4.5. Can anyone tell me why adding a discrete graphics card boosted the RAM score in the benchmark? The ram in...

Ok, I found the culprit. It seems that some of the files that I downloaded (from firefox, from newsbin etc) are loaded into memory. I see a bunch of video files (1gb+) in memory that should not be residing there. How can I find out which process is "locking" this file/space? How can I free...
