I think my old rig finally bit the dust but it has been relegated to a kids pc anyway. I need to replace the cpu, ram, and mobo. I will be reusing all my other parts vid card, SSD, etc. I just want a quad core with equivalent performance, and if I can o/c with the parts selected, that's even...
The reviews I'm speaking of were reviews on the Seasonic you recommended.
i got the GTX for $250 (free ship/no sales tax), I couldn't find a 7950 for less than $310 (plus $21 tax), I was looking hard but you had already found the cheapest one. I have the card o/c'd 20% on the GPU and the RAM.
Is that power supply really so bad that I have to worry about making my machine a paperweight? I did look at a couple reviews of the p/s you suggest and it does look pretty nice. Are the cables generous in length?
What about the specs on the rest of the pc, think I put together a nice machine...
i may consider a new p/s, but i really like this case. It has the HDD dock in top, which I've already used several times, and tons of room. I was choosing between this case or the MK-1. As I said I didn't expect the case to have a p/s. I had purchased a corsair 600w while at microcenter, but...
i didn't document the model number, I'll post that when I get home later. it was a TT branded p/s 700w. I had purchased anothe p/s before I opened the case and saw I had a freebie. I think tiger sold me the wrong case, there is an overseer sold with this power supply, but they charged me for the...

3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible...
I have them as well. all working great. I paid $160 (after rebate), and I would consider buying another 2Gb at the current price if I was running Vista. But since XP won't recognize all 4Gb I'll stay with 2Gb. $140 is a good price, but you never can tell with memory prices, just find a price you...
Alice, check out the patriot extreme ddr-800 I am running. It is working great and is probably cheaper than the corsair you are looking at. I couldn't be happier with the patriots.
I was having problems getting a stable front side bus of even 1100 but I read on another forum, that these brds were having trouble with the 1066 strapping? I went home set the FSB to 1425 and it booted right up at 3.206Ghz. Core temp is reading a little high for my liking 39 idle/ 59 load. I...
