    Newegg and ability to RMA refurbed items?

    NewEgg's RMA policy on refurb items is 15 days.. from the date of order. Last refurb I ordered arrived while I was out of town, worked for 1 day then died, several days outside of NewEgg's return policy. I didn't even try contacting them though, just contacted MSI and they RMA'd it no...

    SN25P 125C Mobo temp WTF?

    If it was really that hot... it would have fried long ago. That would easily fry any chipset.

    Back from the dead

    Anyone following (nobody, lol).. I added my old blue CCFL back into the case, mounted vertically behind the drive cages. The contrast is nice, think it looks a little better. I do need to move the blue light up a little bit so that the end of the tube isn't visible, but it's just kinda...

    Post your "Ghetto Mod" pics

    Wiring stuffed behind the motherboard tray... the visible part of the case looks good, but... Ghetto right down to the coke spill stain.

    Back from the dead

    Will do! In fact, I'll go ahead and post links to photos of it in its former glory - pre spill. I'll start a worklog (more like, a history session) as soon as I find the very first pics I took of this case, back when it had a single white CCFL light and a rats nest of cables. In these pics...

    Back from the dead

    Yeah, I didn't even realize it'd gotten in the case until months later. Since it's on the back, I really don't care about it *shrug*. I mean, look at my wiring back there :eek: - though that wasn't meant as a permanant solution, just meant to tide me over until I can get some sort of either...

    Back from the dead

    So yeah, I've had the same Chenming/Antec case for a few years now - the all aluminum full tower in black with the side window. Unfortunately the plexiglass is scratched to hell. I'd let it go, badly, after a few upgrades and part swaps, and eventually took the lights out since it just...

    Cathode Inverter Burned Out!

    For what it's worth, I bought 2 sets of dual CCFL kits yesterday from Fry's, both branded "Extreme Gamer". Yes, they were very cheap ($7.90 for dual kits). The "red" wound up being bright pink. The "green" is a nice shade of green, but it looked like half of the inverter went out after...

    Weird power LED flickering w/Gigabyte K8NS

    So I finally got around to hooking up the power LED since replacing the motherboard. And the damn thing is flickering at random, sometimes going completely out for a split second. It doesn't seem to be related to anything - cpu usage or the like. There's a power LED on the motherboard as...
