    Clarification about different CPUs

    Thanks for the responses. Future upgrade-ability is one of my main concerns, which kinda seems to be a problem for Intel.

    Clarification about different CPUs

    Thanks for the responses. I'm going to do some more reading on this, but Intel's looking pretty good.

    Clarification about different CPUs

    I apologize in advance for the sister post in the AMD CPU section. I want opinions from both sides of the aisle. I wish there was a universal CPU one for me to post this in. I'm at an impasse building my new desktop, mainly because I can't look at anything until I know which CPU socket I'm...

    Battery to power computer

    I'll definately continue this project over the summer. So if I'm looking for at least 3 hours of uptime, what should I do?

    Battery to power computer

    Yet another thing I was unaware of..I assumed that colleges would have decent internet everywhere. Hmm...maybe I don't want to do that then...It's looking like I should just get a laptop.

    Battery to power computer

    It's beginning to look like I seriously underestimated the challenged of putting a PC into a briefcase (I thought I was doing fine up until I hit the power issue). This would be for college. Right now I'm starting to stray away from the briefcase PC (the only thing it really had going it is that...

    Battery to power computer

    I considered doing that, but I'd only undertake this project because of the challenge. So disassembling a laptop would defeat the purpose. For some reason I was mistaken and thought DDR2 was cheaper than DDR3.

    Battery to power computer

    Also, there's the issue of price. I'm up to around $950, give or take because of the CD drive, and still need the batteries, briefcase, and keyboard. The keyboard is almost sure to be negligible. I'd love to keep it under $1200. I'd only use this programming and developing, so I was thinking...

    Battery to power computer

    Well, the thing is I'm doing a mod where I'm putting a computer, monitor and all, into a briefcase (no more than 2.5" thick a side). I looked up some similar mods online but all of them had power cords. Power tool batteries would be interesting, I hadn't thought of that. I'm hoping for at...

    Battery to power computer

    I'm building a portable computer (not a laptop, a computer...all the laptop parts, especially motherboards, are proprietary...) that needs to run off of a battery. I've found some potential parts for the power system online (http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-90) but am wondering if there's...
