    Post your "rate my cables" here

    EnderW, it looks like all your image links are dead. Can you re-upload them somewhere and re-link them? I'd really like to see some good shots of your work with this case.

    Asus P5E-VM HDMI + E5200 = FAIL?

    I'm using "AUTO". I'm not sure what I should be using. I've been playing around with overclocking it more and the strange thing is that as long as I keep the FSB at 333, I can jack up the multipler quite a bit. I've managed to get it into windows at 11.5 x 333 (3.83GHz) and I'm prime95...

    Asus P5E-VM HDMI + E5200 = FAIL?

    I've been running my Asus P5E-VM HDMI over 6 months with an E7300 2.66GHz (10 x 266) overclocked to 3.4GHz (8.5 x 400). All I did was drop the multiplier to 8 (from 10) and bump the FSB to 400 (from 266). I didn't change voltages or anything, I just left everything on "AUTO". See...

    Krick's Antec NSK3480 - behind the tray cable management

    Nope. You can see in this picture that I zip-tied all the wires back against the motherboard so they're well out of the path of both of the fans...

    Krick's Antec NSK3480 - behind the tray cable management

    This is my Antec NSK 3480 build. My old PC was a super silent rig using an overclocked Pentium M in a low profile Superflower case. I was very happy with my old setup except that with the Wrath of the Lich King expansion raising the hardware bar, my system wasn't really cutting it, even with...

    Asus P5E-VM HDMI + E7300 overclock

    An update... I did the pencil vdroop mod and now my voltage actually goes UP ever so slightly when under load. It does seem to be a lot more stable when overclocking now. Regardless, the voltage settings in the BIOS still don't match what I see in CPU-Z and SpeedFan. I've discovered...

    World of Warcraft upgrade time - ASUS P5KPL-CM ?

    Why that particular memory? Is the recommendation based purely on price? The reason I ask is that judging from the review on Newegg, it doesn't seem to be a very reliable brand, with many of them being DOA.

    World of Warcraft upgrade time - ASUS P5KPL-CM ?

    It's been several years since I've built a new system and I'm not up on the latest overclocking techniques, methodologies, and pitfalls on the Core 2 platform. I remember back in the day that it was optimal to run the memory and fsb 1:1 if possible but I don't know if that is recommended or...

    World of Warcraft upgrade time - ASUS P5KPL-CM ?

    I think I'm honing in on some choices here. First off, as much as I love it's compact size, I think my current SFF case is hurting me and limiting my video card choices. The biggest problems are: 1) the power supply is a SFX 300 Watt model 2) the case is thin and short, limiting both the...

    World of Warcraft upgrade time - ASUS P5KPL-CM ?

    For the video card, price really isn't a concern. My primary constraints are noise, power usage, temperature, and physical size. I'll look into that motherboard. Thanks for the tip.
