    Realtek ALC883 question

    Thank you for all of your help. I uninstalled my codecs (ffdshow and CCCP) and installed media player classic home cinema and it works like a dream. =)

    Realtek ALC883 question

    So you think it's a software thing? If that's the case, then would these other factors make much of a difference? I'm running the Windows 7 RC and the video file in question is a .mkv file being played through Quicktime. I've had the same issue to some extent with .mkv files in WMP but those are...

    Realtek ALC883 question

    I've got a P5E-VM HDMI which has Realtek ALC883 for the onboard sound. I'm running a q9550, 4g corsair 1066, and an ATI 4870 1gb. Would using the onboard sound have any affect on the playback of 1080p movies? My problem isn't necessarily a sound problem, but I wasn't sure where to put it. 1080p...

    Thanks for the great tips on that. The square drive bay hole that you slide the drive into is what is scraping the top of my drive. Apparently the acrylic piece adds enough height to the drive that it makes it scrape the drive bay so badly it scratches the paint. I think that I'm going to...

    I got my camera and here is a high quality shot of the updated dvd drive mod. (Bear in mind that it is waiting on a fresh coat of paint.) That usb cable for trim is a great idea. I'm not quite sure yet how I'll be able to implement that, but I'm certainly going to try. That would...

    I'm sorry it's been so long since I last updated, but I didn't have many new developments and was busy. I've finally gotten a picture uploaded of my DVD Drive with the acrylic mod pieces that I ordered. (I'll do a higher resolution image once I get my camera back) Since I added that new...

    Q9300 or Q9550?

    I hadn't realized it had the larger multiplier, although that makes sense. Thanks for the info. Does anyone have either of the two? What have your experiences been with them?

    Q9300 or Q9550?

    I'm about to purchase a cpu for a gaming rig I've been working on. I've got: Asus P5E-VM HDMI 4GB 1066 Dominator I plan on overclocking the cpu and the ram to some extent. The 9300 is $250 at newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115043 and the 9550 is...

    Well, I was able to finally get those acrylic mod pieces for my DVD drive. I ordered them from http://www.customxps.com. They are normally bundled with their XBOX 360 full case mod kits, but I was able to get just the DVD mod pieces. I just got them in the mail today though and haven't had a...

    As far as the DVD drive goes, I'm waiting to see what happens. I found an acrylic piece that houses the disc stabilizer that is made for a samsung drive similar to mine that should fit. Ideally, I'll be able to get that acrylic piece, remove the metal brace that is currently holding the disc...

    Ok, so I took several pictures to give you a good idea of what's going on in the case at the moment. First though I'd like to acknowledge the fact that the case is a mess and things are not all in order. I'm in a phase of getting things in the case and testing them and figuring out the layout...

    Sorry about the wall of text, I didn't even think about when I was typing it. I was just trying to get as much done as I could because I was short on time. I'll take some pictures of the stuff here in a little bit. The fit with the cables definitely is a tight one. I have to have the main...

    I've been working on a new SFF system for a little while now and considering the amount of modding (compared to my normal amount anyways) I decided that I'd go ahead and post the progress on here. Sadly because I didn't think of it when I was doing work, I don't have any pictures pre-mod so far...
