    Another advice thread

    I know that this place is littered with these kinds of threads, but I think that's kinda what it's here for. I was hoping someone could give me any suggestions as far as this build. I already have the case, fans, and optical drives. Also, as I will be saving up money as I go along, the CPU...

    What do you think of this PSU

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817190016 I've asked questions here in Power Supplies before, so I wanted some anecdotal experience. I really really like the look of this one, but some of the reviews say that it can't run SLI. Yet, in the Corsair 620 thread it said that...

    Quad core vs. Dual Core

    Okay, so I've been hearing people tell me the future of quad core is bleak, and that it's not worth it to buy a quad core, saying that doing so is just going to leave 2 cores idle more often than not. How true is this? What is the future for quad core computing?

    Power Supply Quality Question

    Price really isn't an option, as I have a pretty well-paying job, and I have absolutely no bills. Also, regardless of looks, I want modular more than life itself. I want the cleanest possible look as well, which is why I like those circular modular connections. I don't really give a crap about...

    Power Supply Quality Question

    I've been trying to avoid asking forums on the internet for help as much as possible because it all varies depending on where you go, so I have been reading about rails and all that nonsense, and I still don't really understand the concept.

    HDD Activity Mod

    HDD Activity Mod

    I'm trying to wire my case up so that when my hard drive is active, the case sort of strobes. I've drawn up this circuit, and I need to know if this would serve the purpose.

    Well I got what I paid for. Complete crap.

    maybe use longer screws, and just have it dangling there?

    Okay, but would I be able to pull the key out?

    Key Switch

    then how would I get it to work like a regular power button? i.e. Turn key from off to on to boot up PC. Turn key from on to off to on again to start shutdown sequence turn key from on to off to do a hard shutdown. I had assumed this was all controlled by the Mobo/OS, not the power switch...
