I'm holding off on the insanity judgement. Could go either way after your last post...:D It looks to me from this quote like VM is offering to give you the rebuilt system you seem to be fighting so hard for, but ya didn't once mention that in your last post. Is that what you want, or just...

He won't be missing his computer if it's not working anyway. Duh (BTW, Ranger - is that really all you do with your rig?) Are you insane? The guy has had a PC for 2 years - it's worked most of that time, and now it doesn't. But he won't send it in like they ask, just stomp his foot...

Stick with Enermax, PCPower, Seasonic, or another actual brand of PSU, and I agree 750w or more will provide headroom for upgrades like SLI or overclocking that 6300. I'm not a fan of anything from OCZ, since they don't actually make anything - farm everything out and just market it. Don't...

I'd stay away from the OCZ power supply, cuz I have heard mixed messages about that company. Try Enermax, Antec, or PCPower (even if they are expensive). Go with 700+ watts if you want to keep with the upgrade theme.

Dude, you asked if it would hold 4 hard drives and you say it will. I bet you have a free 5.25 bay or two, also. You were informed, but you just don't like it. Consider perhaps you didn't ask the question properly to get an answer you wanted.

Me thinks you are trying a bit too hard to disect this. First, a flat drop would give a system a huge shock without damaging the box at all. Did you consider that? Second, if people don't start using their heads and not making this forum the VM tech support blog, then why would Chris and VM...

Holy shit! I just flipped on the TV and caught the HP chairwoman testifiying before congress about illegal pretexting and realized that H-doo made this announcement today as a diversion...kinda like when Clinton dispatched our fighters and blew up the aspirin factory in Sudan the same day he was...

see, that's what I'm thinkin too. Also, I like that - Hdoo

I respect Voodoo, and HP is OK. The thing I don't get is why? HP can do everything VD can if they wanted (Rahul mentions the $3.5 Billion dollar lab), so I see this as just a way to paint HP boxes and plant a VD logo on them and pawn them off as cool. Am I missing something here other than a...

Good idea, but the noobies would never find us!

I tire seeing people write that Maingear and OD have "better support" than VM. VM is open from 7a to 11p unless you get 24/7. None of these other companies can do that, and it's a big deal. During "normal" hours these guys are all good, but I can never call about a tech support problem during...

Looks very nice! I'm getting closer every day to pulling the plug on a new system. Post lot's of pictures!

I'm a customer, and they absolutely do. You gotta love VM because they are big enough to have dependable support around the clock, but still not too big to care about the customer experience. Oh, and they make great PCs, too.

Go with the Velocity Micro Vector GX and you will be set for a long time with a very nice little rig.

WTF - The more I read this, the more like BS it seems. The E2200 system tore up everything [H] has seen and because it took 3 days to get a video card and gave a couple of vague answers they got a 5/10 and a final score of 7.9? I honestly don't get it. I keep reading the TS page and don't...
