    First time with 64 bit & SATA

    I guess nobody here has any clue, because nobody seems to be answering. I've got one reply this whole time and that response didn't seem to have an answer for AMD but only Intel. I thought this site was one of the best on the net for these kinds of issues related to PC's but so far not...

    First time with 64 bit & SATA

    You need to have two SATA drives in order for windows to detect RAID during installation of windows? I have one SATA drive and the CMOS doesn't detect the drive. CMOS only detects CD/DVD ROM and Floppy but not the single SATA I have installed. I installed an IDE HDD and then out of...

    First time with 64 bit & SATA

    Ahhhh? no... there is no AHCI mode in the bios that I can see. (On the Intel side you set the SATA mode to "compatible" and the controller to IDE.) what? sata recognized or set in bios as ide? I told a friend about a deal on geeks.com and he purchased it...

    First time with 64 bit & SATA

    I am trying to install Windows XP 64bit Edition onto an AMD64 3200 and a Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 ST3200827AS. I have yet to work with both a SATA drive and a 64bit CPU system. I'm having a problem getting the installation to recognize the drive. Using a floppy with device drivers on it...

    Whats the best Micro ATX form factor 24.5cm x 24.5cm / 9.6in x 9.6in?

    Zero_Distortion, was that question, tongue in cheek sarcasm? It's a custom case that set me back $800.

    PS3 Retardation

    Didn't know such a section existed here or I would of posted this there. General Hardware sounded close enough to me. I don't even know what GenMay means or ment untill you tipped me off to it's existance. It must mean game sys. Doesn't matter to me anyway.

    PS3 Retardation

    What has the world come to? :rolleyes: The stupidity of humanity, I'm sorry but a game system is not worth a human life by far. Idiots stabbing, robbing and in some cases killing each other while standing in line for yet another highly over priced game system. :confused: This is...

    Whats the best 12in x 9.6 MoBo, Intel or AMD?

    Ahhhh, Thanks Kirbyrj now I understand it. Wow, 488 would be 1952 FSB, very nice. Thanks again for helping to understand the points I misunderstand. :)

    Whats the best 12in x 9.6 MoBo, Intel or AMD?

    Yup, looks like the eVGA 680i is the one for me. That and the Kentsfield QX6700 1333FSB, One review stated "need I say more" 2x PCIe x16, 1x PCIe x8 for physics at 46 lanes, very bonus. FirstPacket... who needs Killer NIC, he he heh. SLi ready memory support at 1200MHz, Jesus Man! 3gb...

    Whats the best 12in x 9.6 MoBo, Intel or AMD?

    I've looked at these boards, P5W DH AW9D-Max eVGA 680i Asus P5N32-E SLI just can't for the life of me figure out which I need for my application. Hard Core Gaming w/SLi or CrossFire, hasn't quite figured them apart yet. ease of OCing to MAX capability and the ability to upgrade to...

    Whats the best 12in x 9.6 MoBo, Intel or AMD?

    Does the ASUS P5N32-E support dual 16x PCIe with the same gfx cards? To me that sounds like a dumb question but I just want to make sure I can get 16x/16x with dual 8800GTX and not 16x/8x or 16x/4x. So with this e6600 I can OC from 2.4GHz up to 3.7 with (PCC) and that would be the...

    Whats the best Micro ATX form factor 24.5cm x 24.5cm / 9.6in x 9.6in?

    Ahhhh.... Thanks, I will continue this conversation on the other thread instead of having two threads discussing much of the same stuff. I will revert back to this thread when discussing the 9.6" x 9.6" though. Thanks.

    Whats the best 12in x 9.6 MoBo, Intel or AMD?

    Both CrossFire & SLi are new Technologies that I'm not quite yet completely familiar with. Is one better than the other? I'm assuming PCIe means PCI Express, and with that I'm also assuming that 16x would be better than 8x and at least one of these boards you've suggested does support...
