Nicely done. But there was a conflict of plot and characters :D It should have been Demoman vs Engi. Ironically, the Demoman character was used to portray a spy in the movie, while a spy was used to portray a lawyer.

Sweet deal. Hopefully God has a plan to allow me to win!

It is I! I I say, I!

oh, then my mistake. I thought ASP was only supported on MS-SQL.

I think I already implied I was going to use "either" ASP or PHP by stating I'll be using MS-SQL or MySQL. But basically, like anyone who is divided amongst PHP or ASP, it's all about the cost. I'm trying to get MS-SQL License off a friend of mine who supposedly has one or two of...

I can't find any, but I was wondering, if such a motherboard existed. Since AMD's 770 and 790fx chipset motherboards support ECC memory, I was wondering if there was a intel equivalent. BTW, when I say "Retail" I mean non server parts.

tnx for the comment, will do :)

I'm building a home server that will be a database and web server for a business site and an online business (e-commerce) site. I need recommendations for parts from the retail market. I using parts from the retail market to cut costs since I don't want to buy the more expensive server...

Question is, does Independent/Dedicated Gigabit Network adapters perform better than integrated ones on your motherboard? I have a Marvell integrated Gigabit adapter on my motherboard, and some how I feel that it isn't performing as it should be. If it does help, I was thinking of...

I am thinking about doing a RAID 1 with two 640GB drives. It is for a web/database home server. I was wondering, is it necessary for me to buy a independent RAID controller? Or can I just run it off my motherboard? I've heard the storage controllers built-in on to motherboards are...

Can we Cannucks participate? :D If so, thank you very much for such an opportunity! Great work! Thanks for the help and opportunity HardOCP! :D

HOLI SHIZ! Nice job... Love the look of that HDD cage, damn... LED's Aluminum fans to go with that, and that is one sw33t arse part :D Crazy aesthetics wise; hope it cools the HDDs well too :D That HDD cage inside the Case will hog all the attention if you don't make something else for the...

Most likely, major label p0rn :rolleyes:

Which is a pretty small niche, since people who don't want to overclock usually look for X2s ;) But if you are gonna waste that much money for a Opty 185, might as well spend a bit more to get the best s939 Processor possible. (FX-60 cost like $20~30 more than opteron 185 these days)

Go with a Scythe Ball bearing fan. around 30cfm would do, with out making too much noise.

With the heatload 2 x 8800GTX and your CPU together is gonna put out, you would need a 3x120mm radiator to keep everything cool and leave head room for some OC'ing. I'm not sure what radiator AvaDirect will provide you... do you know? Additionally, I would suggest WC if you get a good...

LOL... Another thread about FX60 and opty, lmao. You can actually go search and you'll find like 7 threads that is like this thread that was written with in 2 months :rolleyes: Anyways, sum it up, if you are gonna spend the money go for FX-60. However you should consider using this...

I think I saw like 7 threads that are exactly same as this :rolleyes: Simply said, two options: Best of the Best FX-60 (will most likely give you the highest speed manageable with a s939 cpu; but as you can clearly see, it has its cost) Cost friendly, best cost to performance ratio Opteron...

Any quieter? I don't think Olympia is much quieter than PCP&P...

A bump and a question. What PSU did you get instead of this? Just curious because I got a Seasonic M12-600 lying around :p

For sale are: BRAND NEW, OEM 4 x Logisys Premium Crystal Clear 120mm Case Fan Wires are sleeved in clear PVC sleeve. Includes 4 x Four Fan screws and bonus of 2 x Four Anti-Vibration Fan mounts for open corner fans Cost: $16 USD ($4 for each fan) Shipping (The items weigh...

As the title says. Anybody ever use this? Sunbeamtech Theta (Software controlled Fan Controller) Is it good as Sunbeam rheobus' , minimizing that whining noise when you volt them down?

x1950 PRO AGP performs on par with the PCI-E one when you have a good setup rig. So, 2GB of ram, ~2.8GHz CPU (single core) and a moderately good mobo will make your system run pretty nice :D Good enough for most if not everything the world can throw at you at the current moment :D

Hmmmm, if I had the money to spend I would go with the FX-60... Awh~ vanity, ain't it grand... I got the FX-60, for vanity sakes, lol and since I am staying s939 until AM3 comes out. If I didn't have money to spend, from the provided option, I would go with a X2 4400+ (if you can find one): the...

Asus did comment back in 2006 that they would also make RD600 based boards, but I dunno if they pu**ied out from that or not, with Intel going down motherboard manufacturers throats and all, about supporting ATi/AMD's chipsets :rolleyes: .

yup, we know :D Sad that I had high expectations for 4x4, but it didn't even come close :( Still gets owned by Intel's counterparts in performance and energy efficiency...

I say good call. The ol' s939 X2s, especially the 4800 is good enough for any programing out there that is available, and will be for quite some time. So if you can resist the update syndrome :rolleyes: you'll last a good while until your next comp. All you really need now is 4GB of ram and...

AM2+ is just around the corner :rolleyes:

I agree with the member above. With $350 you can buy a Opteron 165, thermaltake big typhoon and a DFi LANParty motherboard (NF4), and overclock the opty 165 to around 2.6GHz. And btw, for media oriented work dual cores significantly help. I do some video editing and sound editing, and I...

The reason FX-60 has such a premium over the X2 4800+ is... #1. unlocked multi on the FX-60 that generally gives it a better potential to Overclock #2. The FX line of branding value. #3. Best s939 out there.

Ya, I generalized too much above in my comments. I was meant to assess all Opteron steppings, since this thread was about LCB9E, but I started to talk about the better steppings too. The start didn't correlate with the end :rolleyes: Anyways, ya, what I meant to say was that the BEST...

Example from postings at xtremesystem forums' -> http://itznfb.com/images/db.jpg P.S. BTW, if this violates any rules, since the source is from another forum, please remove this, and I apologize for the violation. Haven't seen anything specifying prohibition of data from other forums so I...

In general, if you know what you are doing and have sufficient cooling, there is not reason for your processor to be significantly effected by overclocking :D

well what the dude said above is true too. However, people have more and more apps running in the background and foreground these days, and dual-cores do help. I multi-task, and often use multiple multimedia programs at once, such as liquid apps (pro 7), adobe apps (premier, photoshop...

AM3 will be. Right now, straight forward, AMD parts aren't price worthy in comparison to its INTEL counterparts. Only thing is that their new 65nm cores that haven't yet been released commercially wide, will consume less power. In my case, I'm going to stick with my s939 until AM3...

And BTW, as Zero pointed out CCBBE and CCB1E steppings for Optys reach 2.7~3.0GHz at their BEST Thus, this isn't a normal curve / bell curve in which the middle (~2.85 GHz) is the majority. The BEST reach 2.7~3.0GHz, so others have been left out who cannot reach those ranges and yet may still...

hmm highest I've seen for this stepping is 2840mhz orthos stable for an hour lol...

lol, IMO, I don't think anyone who overclocked wisely out lasted their CPU. It is most likely you'll change your comp before you proc goes dead :rolleyes: But any ways, I had a 4400+ X2 (s939) for a year and a half, OC'ed @ 2.6ghz, air cooled and ran that comp for around 24/5 each week, and...
