    FX8120 or 1090T?

    If you don't have special needs like PS2 emulation -- which SSSE3 is a MUST -- then the 1090T hands down, which will probably be cheaper if you wait a few weeks. I would've gotten a 1090T over the i7-2600k I bought in June had 1090T had SSSE3, would've saved me quite a bit.

    Realtek ALC 889 -- ASIO?

    I searched and searched to no avail, and e-mailed Realtek and got no human response. Does this support ASIO, particularly over the S/PDIF output? Thanks.

    Newegg socket bent pin RMA? Sandybridge

    A $30 fee would be more than reasonable even if it's manufacturer defect. I didn't check the pins beforehand as I had assumed they would be fine given the protective plate being over it. Obviously I wont make that mistake again. This is my first board where the pins are on the mobo side and...

    Hitachi 2TB Harddrive Owner's Thread

    Just did a surface scan with chkdsk. Now says 0KB. I think it was a false positive because SMART shows no reallocated sectors.

    Hitachi 2TB Harddrive Owner's Thread

    512KB bad sectors after a full format. Anyone else have any bad sectors? It passed both the quick and long drive fitness tests though.

    Seagate 400GB SATA $99.99

    Got mine very quickly. I selected the free ground shipping and got it the next day (today) that is very unusual for here. The sticker on the drive says 7200.10 so I guess I am one of the lucky ones :D
