    Newegg is a wasteland

    I agree Newegg and Amazon are similar. But I am in WASHINGTON STATE. So guess what? 8%+ tax from AZ. 0% tax from Newegg. I know you CALI guys are just the opposite.

    Unimpressed with my XFX 6870 crossfire... something wrong here?

    Oh no. Don't tell me you didn't increase fan speed! Depending on the fan and actual temps, I run my cards from 55 (OEM Reference) to 75% (Sapphire style) and keep 60-72C. Are you underclocking the memory while mining? That saves a huge amount of power.

    Thanks for clicking! So my story: I had purchased an AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition off eBay earlier this month for $60/shipped but the seller was shady and ended up giving bogus tracking information. Go fig. All that wasted time waiting for Paypal to refund me. *sigh* (for the...

    Modular PS missing cables...

    I purchased a 850W modular PSU here on the FS/FT forums from a member. Pictures showed the PSU unit itself in great shape, while the manufacturer and multiple vendors list the PSU with 4xPCI-E connections. As the seller did not mention any missing parts, I didn't even think to ask. My bad I...

    How does Asus survive with such terrible RMA service?

    I've been building systems since the Celeron 300A@450 days and Abit. I build systems for friends, and always try to go with "best gaming buck" type of upgrades. So that means a $150 mobo instead of $300, and the best "cheap but can OC to heck" CPU I can find. I actually used to avoid ASUS...

    WTB inexpensive LGA 775 C2D Motherboard

    I have an old Core2Duo E6300 1.83Ghz CPU laying around that I was thinking of throwing in an even older AMD64 3000 system to get at least a dual core in the rig, but I need a cheap/inexpensive LGA 775 mobo to make this happen. Let me know what you guys have laying around out there, would be...
