    Just upgraded my HTPC to a GTX 260

    So your HTPC is also a gaming rig? Do you have another rig or just one that is multifunctional? For most purposes of a HTPC the GTX 260 is overkill. My BE 2400 oc'ed to 2.9GHz and an onboard ati 3200 is fine for all but intense ffshow scripts but obviously I would not game on this.

    My AM2+/AM3 compatible board won't run upcoming six-core processors?

    I would also take in consideration that DDR3 is dropping in price (even if relative to DDR2 which is up in price from a year or two ago). In a few months I suspect that the price difference between DDR2 and 3 will be negligible soon anyway. I plan on selling my DDR2 soon in favor of DDR3...

    Card to max out FSX at 1680x1050?

    I have a 260 core 216 and its a nice bump up from my former 8800 gts 640mb which may be similar to your 8800 gs I am not sure. I also use 1680x1050 but I haven't played FSX ;(

    CPU limit for 5850?

    If I remember correctly some games aren't CPU limited like call of Duty W@W my e4300@3.2 with a 260 core 216 didn't use 100% cpu. Are FPS over 60 even noticable anyway?

    mobo light on, CPU fan spins briefly, but no power up

    I have taken components out and replaced them like you and some times I have to reseed the RAM even if I didn't think I bumped them. Usually with a quick start and immediate shutoff the RAM usually is the problem for me. Hope you can figure it out.

    Shopping computer stuff in L.A.

    You will be in LA where are you from origianlly. I know most people in California don't use the egg as much since they charge tax in CA. There is always zip zoom fly or tigerdirect or ewiz.

    Reducing CPU usage on GPU client

    It is a super pitty since there are so many deals on mid range gpus that could be put to good use if there were a fix to this problem.

    Hot deals for folders

    I hate paying shipping...I see that this gpu doen't vent air out of the case. How hot do these GSO's run when cruncing?

    Two X5550s, need a motherboard - suggestion please

    I know bonic is good at using cuda for their apps and for the price per crunch it seemed like for me that the gpus were a far better deal. Is F@H a different story with cpus performing better? Do you use a special app for F@H to utilize all of those cores?

    Intel ATOM HTPC Review

    I am surprised I thought that the load times for wmc was based mainly on the htpc's connection to the server or where you are accessing the off site media from. I often just opt to use no gui and go through the windows network client for accessing media. My HTPC with a HE2400 with 2 gigs of...
