    Problem with my Q9450?

    Tried that too. Even moved the one stick around from slot 1 to 2 and back. No luck. Got an RMA # today. They are picking up the shipping tab so in the end it won't cost me anything but yeesh. Back to waiting. I think this time I will stick with retail and skip the OEM.

    Problem with my Q9450?

    Yeah the DFI P35-T2R is a P35 chipset and supports 45nm. As stated initially, I tried 2 different bios revisions (both supporting the 45nm processors on that board). No overclocking was ever done.

    Problem with my Q9450?

    For around the last 30 days I have had the rig in my sig up and running. Its been flawless. I've been playing Supreme Commander, Sin's of a Solar Empire, Battlefield 2, etc. I've even managed to get Crysis running on high settings at 1600 x 1200 resolution with playable framerates (just...

    Q9450 $299 via online at Microcenter

    Canceled my pre-order (wouldn't it be called a post order now?) from BLT and ordered from Microcenter last night. Had an e-mail waiting for me this morning that Microcenter had just shipped it. Might be an OEM whereas my BLT order was for retail but hey I saved nearly $70 bucks and the wait is...

    shopblt q9450 retail

    Yeah, mostly geographical reasons. Also, the day after I ordered the counter ticked over from 18 to 19 for the Tennessee warehouse while the one for Illiniois stayed the same. I don't know about Pennsylvania.

    Well I have a pre-order with them and should be number 19 for the Tennessee warehouse pre-order list. I've been patient and never really expected anything to ship until April anyway but today I checked the list and the tennessee warehouse has NO processors listed as coming in now. Very...

    Dell 2408WFP Now Available

    Had my 2408 for almost 2 weeks now and am very happy with it. Absolutely wonderful color. I've noticed the very very slight pinkish tint on the bottom left side that others have mentioned but only on pure white background and I wouldn't have noticed it at all even then if I hadn't been looking...

    LANPARTY UT P35-T2R and Thermaltake Ultima 90?

    Anyone tried mounting a Thermaltake Ultima 90 on a LANPARTY UT P35-T2R with the Ultima mounted so that a fan mounted on it blows to the back of the case rather than upward? I have a 120mm fan in the back of the case so I would prefer to have the CPU fan blowing that direction rather then to...
