    How to know if your PSU can handle a video card?

    Some valid arguments there, but degradation and efficiency aren't the reasons that fanboys get 1200watt PSUs to power systems that will only see 700watt peak use ;) (and that's with tri-SLI).. I was thinking more like lack of understanding of how much power they will actually use and how...

    Front End Application For MySQL?

    Basically, OP, there are existing database web apps that store data in MySQL databases. It's fairly easy and straight-forward, but you should be able to get your hands one of these pre-programmed data input web apps. You might even be able to develop your own real quick and dirty based off...

    How to know if your PSU can handle a video card?

    No, you would need something like Kill A Watt: http://www.p3international.com/products/special/P4400/P4400-CE.html. IMO, a 9800/GTS250 or 5770 should run fine on that 400 Watt Corsair unit. Look at the real world power consumption numbers...

    Instability -- sig rig (X3220, P45, RAID 0, 8GB)

    Did you play around with the RAM sticks? Take out two and leave two in (if you're using four) and if errors keep happening, swap them around again. Did you test another power supply? Power supplies are usually the main causes of such random crashes--when it's not heat related.

    i7-930 is on a UPS truck!

    Looks like something to brag about. I don't know why you spent the premium on the 930 over the 920 but hey, it's nice anyway.

    Replacement for Nero 8

    I'd rather use whatever equalizer settings are available on whatever I'm using to listen to the discs.

    Replacement for Nero 8
