    Inherited a Xeon based workstation - What to do with it?

    Thank you guys, I feel a lot better spending a few extra bucks to make this thing gamable. I mean good for working from home. I really appreciate the knowledge of people who know what they're talking about. :)

    Inherited a Xeon based workstation - What to do with it?

    It's got two pci-e 16x slots. 475W power supply. I hadn't googled the specs before your post, seems like it's a pretty beefy pc. Specs here.

    Inherited a Xeon based workstation - What to do with it?

    I'm a very cheap guy, and was asked if I wanted a retired workstation - it's a Xeon W3565 (3.2ghz), 8gb ram, but the video card is garbage. PCI card (not PCI-E, just PCI) I have been out of the PC building game for a very very long time. I'm wondering if this machine is worth throwing a...

    Haswell Z87 SFF motherboard list

    I am itching to put together an mITX haswell pc, and waiting for the Asus motherboards to arrive has me keeping a close eye on all the local stores. Today I noticed a new board that I've not seen before - the Z87i-Pro Is this a new board? Or just the European version of the Z87i-Deluxe...

    Dying PSU or Mobo?

    All I have access to is 400, and the minimum my board will run with apparently is 533 (per ASUS's website). I don't have anything else to work with though. It's good samsung memory, I was hoping a small overclock might be possible, but I have no idea how realistic that is.

    Dying PSU or Mobo?

    I'm trying to narrow down some problem hardware, with as little RMAing hardware as possible. My system was stable for ~2 months. Then, last week, I started getting some system instability. My HDD was getting corrupt files, so I checked that out. Nothing out of the ordinary (seagate drive...

    Quiet, efficient, case fans

    I searched a bit, but I'll still probably get mocked horribly for being too incompetent to use the "search" button..... but there you go, and here we are: I just got a Stacker T01 case, and have a ton more space for fans. So I'd like to add some. My PC is in my room (where I sleep), so...

    Dynamic FS/RAID5 questions

    I'm trying to figure out if this is a really bad idea or not. Basically, I want to add a file server to my home network (2-3 machines accessing it at once, serving/recording media/data) but I want it to be expandable. Say, I start out with a RAID5 array in software, running under linux. I...

    Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 New revison Thread

    Are any of these good for us lefties? That Razer Habu mouse looks universal, but apparently some buttons make it righty only? I HATE having such a limited selection in good left handed mice. I have an old MS mouse that looks a lot like these, but it's showing its age, and I'd like to line...

    X1900XTX Crossfire Question....

    What about a 1950xtx crossfire, and a vanilla 1900xtx? Will they cohabitate at all?

    eVga 7900 GTO for $250

    I need advice and fast - I ordered a 1900xtx YESTERDAY. 479 + $150 rebate (there's been a thread about it)... I *had* previously been set on ATI, but I'm not really a hardware loyalist, so I'm trying to figure out if this new GTO is worth paying a restocking fee for. 250 vs 329 is still 79...

    Good time to buy a 1900XTX?

    With the x1950xtx release driving down the prices of the last generation cards, I'm seeing a lot of good deals on the x1900xtx. I just want to check my logic before I pick up a x1900xtx at these new lower prices. The major (by major, I mean "real world") differences between the two cards...

    [H]ot -- Ultra X-Finity 500W PS @ Outpost - $4.99 w/ MIR of $50 - free ship

    The deal is dead. My order yesterday was accepted, they billed my CC, and today I got an email saying it was cancelled. The link to the product in the original post no longer works as well. Just a heads up.

    Dell 10 Days of Deals

    I was hoping for something in the 4-600 range, without a monitor. Considering it's really just for WoW and maybe The Sims 2, a beefy videocard is far from required. As long as it has the slots for it, upgrading to more than 512 ram to a gig can be done later too. It's not for an enthusiast by...
