    Just to build one build

    I haven't built entirely from scratch in a long long time, over 10 years. Mostly due to the good graces of having some really nice local shoppes who haven't charged me anything to burn in machines if I order all the parts through them. Now I have a hankering to put together a machine from...

    8GB on 32bit and 64bit OS?

    Total Address space 4G The MB and other sources need to use some of the address space, this is where the system loses more ground. There are more detailed answers to this question but, I think this answer covers all most need to know.

    ASUS Maximus Formula @ [H]

    Did you load the one from the CD or the one from the support website? I know that on Vista x64 I ran into the same problem when using the version on the disc. That problem was cleared up by moving to the version on the support site. Not that I run it now but it was a fun extra to debug

    Great deal on the set, I have sent the link to my wife. Maybe she will be able to decode the message in time. /me watches the countdown clock I disagree. Remember lad, "To each his own"

    SCORCHING: Thermaltake Armor Case w/25cm Fan FREE after + $18 s/h!

    It looks like two of the rebates require the original UPC. More than likely, the $80 is just being downgraded to $50.

    VisionTek ATI RADEON HD3850 Graphics Card - 900203 for $159.99 **No Rebates**

    Probably a slip up on dells website since thats the exact price they have for the 38 50. Space added for emphasis. The 38 70 is a bit more , now.

    IBuyPower machines

    Costco has radically changed their return policy. Mostly because they sold some really bad product and it came back to bite them. There is another thread on these very machines at costco. Bottom line: Costco is on the hook for 90 days. After that they will help you on the phone but you...

    Looking for a board for a Q6600 - not that easy :mad:

    Is this part a must? Because, it really limits your choices. As far as I know, it limits them to 0. With everything else, I would say ASUS Blitz Formula. I am sure there will be other suggestions.

    orange box $20 ~

    I think its more "We are dumb enough to pay it" not "we can afford it". But debating the spending habits of the average American, trade balances and so on, is outside of the scope here and I will concede to you that the greatest fault falls upon the final seller who did not notify the purchaser...

    orange box $20 ~

    Then I blame EA and those who chose to let EA have this power. Prices should be even everywhere. Nobody should be punished with higher prices for not pirating software.

    orange box $20 ~

    Did the vendors create the regional setup or did valve? I blame the person or persons responsible for the regional pricing scheme. Ramrod /at least the pr0n companies were smart enough to make their DVDs region free
