    Ten Years Ago On Tax Day

    Man I remember when I had a TBird. I was a little kid, and we got this new computer, it was an IBM Netvista. It had gigahertz processor!!! It was a 1.1GHz IIRC. We also had an ATI All-in-Wonder, the original. And it was running WinME. What a major pain it was to get the TV tuner to work (ATI...

    used storage server?

    It's true I don't really need the hotswap trays... That would cut the costs a little bit. If I were to buy a case only, I'll probably use my old computer as the brain of the server (old AMD Opteron). I'll check for fixed HDD cases, thanks for the tip :)

    used storage server?

    I'm starting to look at different options for a storage server. I went on eBay and found some servers, complete except for the hard disks. Is there any disadvantages to buying a used server? I mean, for a little more than the price of a new case, you have a complete server with case, psu, mobo...

    two identical monitors, different colors

    I have 2 monitors (LG W2253V) on my computer right now. The other day, I saw that the colors were different between the screens. I checked the OSD and set the settings of the two screens to the same thing. I also checked the color correction in CCC and it was disabled. One screen was connected...

    Gigabyte X58A-UD3R Thread

    Ok, I guess I'll have to call to. My retailer was of no help really on that matter. They want me to check the power supply... I see them coming, if it works with another one, they'll say change your power supply... I hope I'll get good service from Gigabyte.

    Gigabyte X58A-UD3R Thread

    I bought this mobo a month ago, and I get the whine... :( But if I disable C1E I don't hear it anymore (at least it's not loud enough to bother me) I'll try to get my mobo replaced with a Rev2, because it's still a defect (in my opinion, we'll see what Gigabyte will say). Do you have a...

    New Xbox 360 “Slim” Motherboard Spy Pics?

    The slim version (if such thing exists) would most likely have the Valhalla chip, which includes the GPU and CPU on the same die. Also, the back connectors would most likely be changed around, so because they are not the same layout doesn't mean anything.

    Futuristic Intel Chip Could Reshape How PCs are Built

    It is a new chip from the one you are talking about. This one is based on IA-32 (x86). Too bad it's not AMD64 (x86-64) compatible too... http://techresearch.intel.com/articles/Tera-Scale/1826.htm
