I've a feeling that most will suggest Asus, which I'm not necessarily against... But for a z170 mobo, not certain that the Asus brand necessarily means SUPER DUPER quality either, would rather not pay (a good deal) extra for stuff I won't use. Only one I'd not be interested in is anything by...

I've currently got a phenom II 940 black w/4gb ddr2...It is starting to show its age with some things, particularly some multitasking and gaming. It has held up pretty well considering its 5 years old more or less. I've considered going the i5 route, just not so sure about a board at the...

I was looking around for 8GB of DDR2 Desktop memory, was curious if anyone was looking to sell. LMK, thanks

CPU Haswell i7 4770k or i5 4670k GPU Radeon R9 270 - 270x, maybe Nvidia equivalent? PSU Corsair HX 620 (re-using, is about 4 years old) RAM 2x8GB DDR3 1600 G.skill Ares (or possibly 2x4GB) OS W7 Ultimate Just wasn't so sure about the motherboard as of yet. I'm still running a Phenom 2 940...

Looking at a budget around $150, maybe $160. BF3, Steam titles, and possibly BF4 (which is currently kicking this card's ass) Box is an older DDR2-based Phenom II 965 (?) black edition, 4gb ram.

The company I currently work for is having issues pulling data from our own internal database (MS Dynamics RMS) to our website. (which uses X-Cart for management) Our dedicated server is currently hosted by HostGator, which as it's been explained to me, is dedicated hardware, but virtualized...

Looking mostly for a case that's roughly as big, but has better built-in cable and component management. CPU Cooler is the Xigmatek 1283, which is cutting it kinda close to fitting inside of the 900 I have now.

Looking for a socket 478 OR a socket 939 board...FOUND! I was giving this forum a try to see if anybody might have either a 478 or 939 board that would fit this criteria: -$40-50 max -uses DDR1 memory -MATX most definitely preferred -does not use VIA Generally, Intel chipsets that could...

Had a little issue with connectivity as I've headed back to school this semester and next... I currently have a sony ericsson tm506 through T-Mobile, and at one of the campuses that I attend classes at, I get zero reception inside the building, with the message that reads either, "No .net...

I had been looking at the SD780 Powershot, though it looks to be getting hard to get as it's probably been discontinued. Is this a good camera to get, how well would it do with lower light situations? After a couple of Nikons, I haven't been particularly impressed with the amount of noise in...

Sorta realize it's a bit of an oxymoron, but I was looking at something that was similar to this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147112 And, hopefully that might be able to be had at a Frys/Micro Center..

Seeing that Dell's site lists availability as '3-5 weeks', I was wondering where else might be a good place to get one of these...I don't care much for EBay, if that helps. My guess is that there is no other IPS panel that compares to this, for the overall cost; Any that might be somewhat of...

Wasn't sure if anything above 2gb cards would work on this particular model of camera or not, is why I'm asking.

I've been looking to make my firewall a bit more silent, or as quiet as possible...While I have been looking at the mini-itx setups from VIA, I've always been more than a bit disappointed with overall performance from VIA in the past. I currently have this setup for my firewall: IPCop -...

Specifically, which brand is good, and can be found locally at the B&M stores? I do realize that Taiyo Yuden is established as a good all-around media to get, but only way to be absolutely sure is to get them online at the usual places such as mediastore. I'm looking at getting something...

For the longest time now, I've been unable to synchronize the local time with a time server, it keeps coming up with a 'destination unreachable' error. Is there a particular service I need to check, to see if it's running? Alternatively, I wonder if there's a port I need to redirect on my...

I'm looking for something fairly inexpensive, but ought to have a toner cartridge that will last for a while. Things like ethernet, internal paper trays, etc....Nice, but not absolutely necessary. Any suggestions of < $100-120 (or less is getting warmer) are appreciated. I'll likely be...

Granted, I have already asked this same question at Ubuntuforums, but I'm wondering if the motherboard itself is going to be a lost cause with linux... I was looking to install ubuntu onto this system: Foxconn 6150K8MA-EKRS motherboard AMD Opteron 144 CPU 1gb pc3200 1x80gb Maxtor PATA...

I have 4 512mb sticks of Crucial Ballistix PC3200 memory, that I was prospectively looking to use on a setup that has: Opteron 165 Foxconn 6150K8MA-EKRS motherboard I seem to recall that populating all of the memory banks had some variety of bandwidth limitation, what was it? Is it only...

I had looked at the comparison chart on Tomshardware, though they haven't updated the chart to include the 8800GT as of yet. With the results taken there, it'd be about 1.5-2 times as fast in many of the games/benches, compared to a x1900xt. Would it be safe to say the 8800GT results ought to...

I'm looking at trying to decide how to host a good number of family photos, and I know of a few different options- -flickr -picasa -photobucket -hosting a domain, and setting up an album by hand with coppermine or similar software. Which of the above is probably going to be the most...

Could anybody suggest a PCMCIA USB 2.0 or Firewire (either separate or on the same card) PCMCIA card that's would work without issue in Xubuntu 7.10? I had checked their own forums, but I hadn't been able to glean much there. If not, where might be a good site to check for hardware...

I've got an older style GF2 GTS (Asus 7700 Deluxe) in a box for the 'rents, and the fan's bearings are starting to go on it. It's got what looks like a Crystal Orb-style variety of cooler on it. I was wondering what a good replacement for it would be, and checking the possibility that it...

Since it looks to be the better overall upgrade path, I've begun looking at P35 boards. I had been looking at the P5K, I wasn't sure about which P35 board would be the best for going to about 3ghz or so (nothing crazy oc-wise) with either an E6600 or Q6600 board + Ultra120Ultra Extreme HSF...

I ordered some Ballistix DDR2 8500 yesterday, And am planning to pair with an E6600 and a X1900XT. Unsure about the motherboard ATM, but that's for another thread. Since I remember some time ago that Ballistix was having instances where it was dying in some builds, and was wondering if...

I'm looking to make a quiet build for use as an IpCop box, I was wondering how well a ppga celeron 366 might be able to be passively cooled. It'll be inside a matx desktop case, pretty low-frills with only a 15gb hdd, and (maybe) any cd drive I have laying around. It'll have a 60mm fan in the...

I am looking at making the leap to C2D sometime in the future, and I was looking for some feedback: I am looking to push 3ghz on air, hopefully without a voltage increase. Some items will be kept from my current rig if they will be able to handle the upgrade. It'll be used for all sorts of...

It appears quite possible that the usb ports on my rig have shit themselves. The motherboard is a Foxconn 6150K8MA-8EKRS, and it might have shorted the ports out. I can see signs of a connection if I hook a usb mouse or the like up to it, (the mouse led lights up) but peripherals are...

For any of the Sil3114-based expansion cards, you can use the ports in a non-RAID configuration? (Read: 4 individual, separate drives as opposed to one volume, be it RAID 0,1,5,JBOD) I'm looking to clean up the inside of my fileserver a bit, moving over to SATA from IDE/133 would definitely...

Might anyone suggest a good model of gigabit switch that has: 8 ports $40-60 budget Thank you. edit: meant switch, not router. :(

I got a Microfly from Chicago Fry's today, I'm slowly getting all the pieces together for my build. The video card I was looking at was a x1900xt, and it really boils down to a couple choices: 1. Simply getting a H.I.S. X1900XT with ICE cooling system (an Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer for...

I've kept getting back to looking at making a SFF/Quasi-SFF build for a while now, as real life matters get to dying down a bit. I am looking at the MicroFly for the case, and will be looking at s939. The two motherboards I've looked at are the Biostar TForce board, and the Foxconn GF6150...

Which manufacturer ought I look at getting for a x1900xt? Even if fundamentally the ones out now are generally all following the generic reference card, which one offers the best support/warranty/performance? (I know, answer is likely pick two out of the three lol) thanx

Budget will be somewhere around $1100. I'll be looking at using the hard drives from my current lan rig (120gb seagate), as well as the memory (2x512 ballistix pc3200) and a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz for audio...I doubt my current power supply (350W FSP Aurora) will make the move, though...
