Yes.

I've loved these for low-power DP/Dual-EPS-12v systems: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151088 This is THE benchmark PSU, which performs at any wattage and temperature. Nobody gets fired for buying Seasonic. Daimon

Absolutely sure. Sorry. I would suggest SuperMicro over anything else. Daimon

Yep.

What AMD did was suicidal. There is absolutely nothing in Bulldozer they did on purpose. If they had released a 32nm Phenom-II x8 with mild 5% improvements to IPC they would've had something future-proof. What they released is generally slower that a 2500K, with freakish power consumption...

Don't feel bad; I was one of the early adopters of the E3 Xeons, and one of the first to "test-as-owner" on the ASUS C206 board. That MB sucked donkey balls upon release, and now it's barely adequate, with near-pathetic ECC support. 1.5v non-ECC DDR3 is just as stable as ECC/non or...

I wasn't being snarky. AMD has a miraculous amount of work to do if they want IPC at the same clocks and transistor count as any Intel CPU, from top to bottom. Do you think the E-350 hurt Atom??? Wait until next year. IMO, they're screwed, and they know it. Marketing fluff about "not...

Negative. Intel desktop CPUs (Celeron/Pentium/i3/i5/i7) will NOT support ECC under any circumstances. The board/chipset is immaterial. Intel segregates ECC to Xeons, and Xeons ONLY. Daimon

They meant to say every 4-5 years. I don't actually believe AMD intends to compete is this space anymore... which they don't compete in now. Daimon

A 448SP GTX 560 Ti? Hell yes, even at the same clocks as the standard Ti. I'd buy only green team if they did this: release a reference 565 with 2GB and rear-exhaust, release a reference 575 with 2.5GB, and release a binned 595 with ~700 MHz clocks and 6GB... I'd be sold. I want a GeForce...
