    Add 2 more hard drives for RAID 0+1?

    Thanks for the quick replies! RAID 5 sounds good to me. I'll stop by Fry's after work and pick up the Maxtor's.

    Add 2 more hard drives for RAID 0+1?

    Currently I am building a new system with 2 Seagate 7200.10 320gb. Fry's has the rebadged Maxtor's for $60. I am timkering with the idea of buying 2 more. I am not completely sure, but beleive 0+1 will improve performance and will provide backup. So I will have 640gb avaible with the other 2...

    Corsair 620 up in smoke

    That's the system i'm going to build in my sig, it was in a system with a c2d e6400 and 7900gt. It didn't have the capactior whine like my Antec had before I got rid of it. I ordered the Silencer 750, color matches my car:cool:

    Corsair 620 up in smoke

    So I had Hackers playing in the background (Hack the Planet!) while messing with my new stuff and I heard a small pop and my PC shut off. Then smoke came out of the PSU, real stinky crap. So I unplugged everything and now I need a new PSU. I was thinking of RMA'ing it but I think I would prefer...

    Q6600 - Which stepping did you get?

    Ohhhh, I didn't even think about customs, makes sense. Oh well, i'll just see how high I can get this thing. I bought a Thermalright Ultra 120 extreme to cool the sucker.

    Q6600 - Which stepping did you get?

    I just got my package from NCIX, pack date 6-26. The damn CPU box was open though! The seal was broken, no way that happened during shipping. I'm asking for a replacement, I don't want a damn refurbished product.

    LIAN LI PC-V1200Bplus II or the new PC-A70B

    I would probably go with the V1200, however I absolutely hate reversed atx cases. The PC-A70B is a monster! Not as pretty as the V1200. The structure of the V1200 looks more solid than the PC-A70B.

    Zalman 9500 good enough for Q6600 B3?

    I already have a Zalman 9500 and want to overclock the Q6600 I ordered as far as it will go on air in a P180b. Will the Zalman be fine or should I buy the Thermalright Ultra 120 extreme? I mean the Thermalright has Ultra and extreme in the product name so it must be good. Is it worth spending...

    Damn... I didn't know about tankguys. I ordered from NCIX since the thread that recomended them didn't mention anyone getting a B3 and my invoice says it is a B3.

    Q6600 - Which stepping did you get?

    I ordered mine on the 25th. No firestix for me, I have 4 gigs of Crucial Balistix 1066. I'm tempted to run to Fry's and see if they have any G0's. With any luck though the invoice is just wrong online. I wonder even if I could return the B3 to Fry's, don't know if the serial number is part of...

    Q6600 - Which stepping did you get?

    Yes please! I need to decide whether or not I want to keep my B3. I don't want to pay shipping to/from them again. I wonder if I can get a G0 from Fry's and return the B3 to em...

    L719B [B3 Q6600]- how do these OC?

    I just got my email from NCIX and it says a B3, i'm pretty pissed, don't blame anyone since it wasn't promised to be a G0. With any luck it will overclock high, i'm hoping for 3.6GHz. So I am curios as well to what these chips will do.

    Dear Scythe USA

    I beleive it was the Ninja I bought, had the adhesive backing for the backplate on the mobo. I could not get that damn thing off! I got soo frustrated and stuck a butter knoife in there and it was bending the damn knife. I eventually got it off after scraping a few traces. I was too mad anyway...

    I just ordered off of ncix.com, had to pay with paypal since they do not take US credit cards. $320 shipped. I could have gone to Fry's and got it for a few bucks more after taxes or got it cheaper off mwave but I wanted the G0 stepping. I really don't need this, but i'll be selling my e6400 @...

    Wal-Mart to Sell Linux PC?

    Horrible idea. Underpowered POS even for $150, get a Dell or something else decent for $50 more. I hope Everex has enough support staff for everyone calling in because they know nothing about Linux.

    Seagate 7200 160gb laptop 2.5 inch harddrives at dell for $129

    This and this websites state that HD has 2mb cache, not 8mb of the WD2500BEVS. I couldn't find the cache size directly from WD however. I don't know how big of a difference that would make though.

    Hmm, I just ordered a Dell Vostro 1500. It comes with a 120gb 5400 rpm drive. Will the 7200 be noticeably faster?

    Dell Vostro

    They are the new Inspiron 1520 etc painted all black. They also have a kevlar keyboard lining to protect from spills and what, full magnesium alloy casing instead of just the lid and a different audio chip (from what I found on notebookreview.com)
