yeah, he needs to check the bios first. then try safe mode or stuff like that if it aint completing the windows bar...

modular power supplies irritate me. i have a 430w antec/seasonic that came with the p150 and it wouldn't start, until i gave each drive (two 160gb ata) their own cable. which makes me say what's the point? still got cable clutter, and don't know if i am stressing the power supply and will make...

yep i overestimate cause sometimes it still aint enough. the room is sometimes 80 right now without trying -- this crappy 400w huntkey from best buy popped running a measly celeron 356 with one sata and dvdrw...

circuitcity has antec 500 basiq for $34.99 instore and online. http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Antec-Basiq-500-Watt-Power-Supply-23500/sem/rpsm/oid/171018/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do i think they are (or were, knowing antec) fortrons. i removed my neo 550 and am now trying the basiq out with...

i have the aria (clearance $50 from circuit city), and people told me it got hot and i didn't listen. even with a celeron 3.2 cedar mill idling, the heat coming out of that power supply was enough to dry wet t-shirts. the sides and top were off as well. tried disconnecting everything except...

its now july, and they didn't drop the price further? that's very interesting (tells us a lot about how bb is running their clearances). i thought for sure it would be $10 by now!!! glad i bought mine and used it.

it worked on the visontek 3870 when they were $130 instant. i watched the cash register, he didn't do an override. i think the other situation people are talking about with teh 25% + 10% coupon was because as someone mentioned, they didn't apply it on the 4850 automatically... too new...

need for speed pro street seems to be $9.99 everywhere also, if anyone cares (i'm buying it, anyway). cheers.

"Anyone outside of TX confirm this?" i can. i am definitely outside of texas. did not see it last week. but did see it today at the cc nearby. hope this helps. mildly interested, but already bought the hd3870 from bb for $117.xx a few weeks ago, per another thread here. also, i don't want...

i really like the way the optical drives just slide in and lock toolless. and the aluminium feels like a different grade than my original antec lanboy. thanks to everyone for the pics and info. i swapped the wires for the led also like others have posted. much thanks, wouldn't have thought of it...

that's some good info. i won't be able to afford one of those, but its great to know, as maybe a coworker/friend is planning to buy one. much thanks.

those antecs are rebranded anyway. how about a top of the line fortron/sparkle or topower (who seem to be the oem for bfg's line of power supplies - the 650w i bought was anyway). got any relatives in america? best buy has some bfg/antec power supplies on clearance... even the 800w is $135.99...

the average oem minitower psu length isn't going to be enough. i bought this GT5636E http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/1014825R/1014825Rnv.shtml and the delta 400w cord won't reach in this lifetime. especially with the motherboard's connector all the way up in the right corner. i am thinking now...

"anyway, it seems Antec is now one of the least preferred brands out there? What happened?" they rebranded/made some power supplies that were incompatible with asus (maybe the most popular diy mboard maker out there during 939 heyday) motherboards. today i swapped this into the rocketfish...

people seem to complain about their support + warranty within newegg reviews after the way pny did me with their non-support of ti 4200s, i would pay $50 for a company with some REAL support most definitely that said "You can already get a non-oc 8800GTS for under 300 bucks AR," ht...
