This system is so cool! Please pick me!

Do you think i'll be ok to get the 8800GTX if I have the 7950GX2 and it currently fits?

Been running my new pc great fot the past 2 weeks! I ended up going with the 7950 and my frames are killer. Call of Duty 2 runs great and so does World of Warcraft... running on max resolution on a 24" widescreen Acer I got from Newegg. Also running a 6600 Core 2, with the Intel 'Bad Axe'...

One thing concerns me though. I was looking at the "BadAxe" Bios revisions and it doesn't look like they added support for the Core 2 cpu's until version 1334, which wasn't released until July. So, if that's the case and I do get a cheap pci-E video card for now... am I not going to be able...

Thx for the info Fluke. Now I haven't updated a Bios in years... back to Amd Athlon 400mhz days... I don't currently have a floppy... is this as simple as installing XP with a cheapy pci-E card and then download a driver and install from the OS or will I need to install from some sort of...

Damn, double whammy, not only could it not support my cpu, but my video too, lol. Hmm... wonder if i should grab a cheapy pci-E at a hardware store and then take it back.

If it turns out to be an older revision, what are my options? I ordered the MB and cpu from mwave, and they appeared to come bundled together, so I don't know why they would sell me two products incompatible with eachother. I don't really see many available boards for conroe =(.

Hmm... I just ordered it brand new from mwave... when I get home I'll check. Will this be on the box? or how do I tell the rev?

The other thing is, according to the manual I don't see any beep codes except for the memory beep codes. Is it possible there would be no other beep codes to give warnings? The only codes it says is a Thermal warning and a Memory beep. Also, when I turn the system on, the keyboard and...

See, I'm not totally sure. I hear all the fans come on, but I can't tell if it is posting or not. There is no beep at all, but I see the lights on the motherboard come on, the fans spin etc. Do you think it could be the processor possibly? Also, when I have my monitor unplugged it says no...

I posted this in the Intel motherboard section as well... but I'm kind of desperate to get some help. I just put together all my brand new parts and I have a problem that I can't figure out. I turn the computer on and I don't get any video! I have the Intel E6600 along with Patriot 1GBx2...

I went ahead and pulled the trigger. I don't need aggressive overclocking, if anything I'll overclock a little bit... maybe 10-15%. My gear should arrive today and some will arrive Tuesday. What OS should I use? I was thinking of putting Windox XP x64 on there, but I can't get an answer...

I posted this in the Intel motherboard forums, but I think this might be a better place for it. Did a search and didn't find anything definitive. I was reading some places that it's hard to find drivers for a wireless card? I have to use wireless and I was wondering if you guys have Windows...

Hey guys, I'm posting this hear because I got the Intel XBX MB and E6600 that I just ordered. I was reading some places that it's hard to find drivers for a wireless card? I have to use wireless and I was wondering if you guys have Windows XP 64-bit installed and what wireless card you have...

Sorry about the post in 2 threads, couldn't figure out how to move it. I got the Overclockers 620 watt... and a coolermaster for $50... now I just need to decide if I should really get the 7950 or save some money and get a 7900GT

Hey guys, my budget for a case+power supply+graphics card is no more than $750. What would you recommend for me? I will be playing a lot of WoW and Call of Duty 2 at 1920x1200. Also, I just ordered the Intel XBX MB and E6600.

I'm getting a 24" widescreen LCD... I can spend more on the case+power ... what do you recommend?

deleted, made a second post by accident.

About to pull the trigger on the Intel 975XBX and E6600... am I making a wise decision? I was also looking at the Asus P5W, but can't seem to find anywhere and I can't wait until Sept. 8th as I sold my current pc yesterday... so I need to order the parts like today.

Help me, lol! I am planning to order my new parts of my new pc... trying to stay under $1500 for everything except the monitor. Anyway I am having difficulties finding decent motherboards that people are recommending for the 4mb cache chips and I'm seeing great overclocking abilities with...

I've seen a lot of threads about just bought the P5W DH... but it seems out of stock where I go. Anyone know where to get one?

Hey guys, Was wondering what the best motherboard I can buy for the E6600 is? I might be overclocking a little... Also I plan to get a 24" widescreen monitor, so would you recommend getting 2 cards or would just a 7900GT suffice?

I can't seem to find those Asus boards with Wi-Fi anywhere that have it in stock. I need to order all my pats today or tomorrow so if anyone knows where I could get one that would be great. I am also planning to pair it with a 6600.

I will be gaming. World of Warcraft and Call of Duty 2. I want to get a 24" widescreen monitor... but that doesn't fit into tthe budget for 1500... i'm looking at spending about 2200 for everything i guess, which includes about 700 for a 24" widescreen.

Everyone seems to be recommedning teh 7900GT? Is it better than the X1800XT or X1900?

Hey guys, I also posted this in the intel motherboard forum, but maybe that's the wrong place. I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not. But I was wondering if you could help me build the best $1500 computer that I can. I am selling my current computer and basically need to build a...

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not. But I was wondering if you could help me build the best $1500 computer that I can. I am selling my current computer and basically need to build a new one within the week. I realize the Direct X 10 cards will be out close to the end...
