Hi guys, I'm looking to replace a dead s775 motherboard. I'm looking for one with onboard video, preferably ATX but mATX could work too, four or more SATA ports and for it to use DDR2 memory.
My server's board died so I want to replace it, let me know what you've got!
Oh, and I am also looking...
I'm looking to spend around $300 for a decent laptop just for school. No gaming or anything, just something that's easy to tote around campus for school work. A full size keyboard is a must since I have big hands. Any suggestions?
This isn't strictly a worklog since most of the hard work has been done.
WARNING!!! Low quality cellphone pics. I will update later when I'm able to take some real pictures in better lighting.
I picked up an old PowerMac G4 case off eBay several years ago. Between various real life things I...
I'm looking to put together a MATX or a MITX SFF and I'm looking for opinions on whether or not I should consider a 1155 build or to build a 1156 one instead?
I want to overclock so that's very important to me and it means I'll need to get one of the K series 1155 CPU's but I really don't...
I want a simple devices I can surf the internet with, watch some videos from time to time, pandora streaming from time to time and write notes occasionally. All things I already do with my phone, I just want a larger screen and better specs.
Ideally I would get an iPad but they cost more then...
I'm planning on using an odd kind of case for an SFF build (old Apple G4 Cube) and I was wondering if it's possible to do an external video card to help with space limitations and heat down?
Reading this on building one but that's for a laptop. I'm thinking that it could just as easily work...
I've got some extra gear laying around; need to clear some space, you know? :)
I will trade for a Hauppauge 1250.

How low is too low?
While it's possible to build an HTPC out of random spare parts (Frankenstein style), like all PC builds, there are things you need to keep in mind. For one thing, an HTPC is going to be 'on' most of the time in order to be accessible to everyone, especially...
I've got an extra copy of both games, Half Life 2 and Half Life 2: Episode 1.
$10 each, PM me if you want one. They will be gifted to you so you have to have a Steam account.
Just saw this up on Newegg, I've got the older wifi version of it and I'm rather happy with it. It makes for a nice little basic system.
Anyways, the 620i-K-E seems like the perfect basis for a WHS box. It's got onboard gigabit ethernet and four SATA ports, drop in a Celeron 430 and two gigs...
I found an old G4 iBook for $300; 21.1" LCD, 1.33GHz G4, 1 gig memory 40gig HDD, OS X 10.5. I have been thinking of getting another netbook to replace my laptop (bought a Dell Mini 9 for my little sis, my GF currently has my Dell laptop) and then I saw this. Is the G4 iBook too old? Is $300 a...

While I don't like ISOs myself I did see this link and thought some of you guys would like to check it out since it simplifies ISOs to the point where it actually makes some sense to use.
So, last week my WHS box took a dive and crashed hard (I'm sure it's something hardware related). So hard that I wasn't able to get it back up and running so I had to migrate the hard drives to systems through out the house and set them as network shares until I can get new hardware for a new...
I'm looking for two items (possibly a third), a G1/4 Aqua Jet and a mounting plate for an AquaTube.
I'm also looking for an AquaTube but only at a good price (I can pick one up for $50 brand new).
Thanks!
I've got two copies of Vista Ultimate, one 32 and one 64 bit. Selling them for $50 shipped each. Not a bad deal IMO but I am willing to do OBO on them (within reason). Oh, these are retail discs too.
SOLD The 32 bit version. 64 Bit is still up!
I'm looking at two boards for my Athlon X4, one is DDR2 and the other is DDR3. Now, I already have four gigs of DDR2 800 memory (4x1 gig sticks) so it's going to be a lot cheaper to go with a DDR2 board and I know DDR3 isn't all that important for AMD's chips.
The boards...
So, I installed the demo the other day when I saw it up on Steam. I've been playing it the last two days and I can't believe how much fun I'm having with just two maps! lol :D
I can't wait for release day! Anyone else try it yet?
I want trade my 40 GB PS3 (and cash) for a full backwards compatible PS3 60 GB. Hopefully someone in the Boulder, CO area but it doesn't much matter as long as I get what I want. :)
Cleaning up around the house and decided I want to upgrade my video card. :)
First off, unless noted I include shipping to the 48 CONUS. I accept non-CC Paypal too, ship using USPS Priority Mail.
Unless noted, everything is bare hardware only but all tested to work. And, of course, OBO is also...
I'm trying to find out what thread size is used for laptop drives. Trying to mount a slot loading burner and I've lost the mounting brackets screws. :(

I order from them all the time, awesome place. Don't know much about the cooler other then it has a great rep. Usual price seems to be about $40, seems like a pretty good deal. :)
Engadget HD - Blu-Ray's Managed Copy Explained!
While it all sounds awesome it doesn't exactly sit right with me that I'll have to pay extra for a movie I already spend nearly $30 for (that is if it's not bought from one of Amazon's awesome Blu ray sales. :) ) in the first place just to...
Looking for a few things:
1.) 4850, any brand really.
2.) DFI P45 JR MATX
3.) Supermicro AOC-SAT2-MV8 Controller card, hopefully with the low profile bracket (never know if I'm going to need the bracket yet).
4.) A copy of WHS.
5.) A copy of Vista Home Premium.
6.) Laptop SATA HDDs
7.) A...
I'm building a mITX system and was wondering if it's possible adapt the 360's 203w power brick to power the PC?
If so, what would be needed (as in, Pico PSU, etc)?

Zotac 9300 mITX
Laptop HDD (maybe a desktop HDD)
laptop DVD burner
Either onboard IGP used...
I'm awesomely broke and need help paying some bills so I'm selling parts of my gaming rig.
First up is my DFI JR P45 T2RS - SOLD
Great condition, OCed very well (can't remember off the top of my head but my E2180 was running, easily, at 3.2Ghz) and I've removed the Lanparty heatsink to...
I'm thinking of upgrading two systems; a friend of mine with her 5700U AGP and my little brother's 7900GS. Cheapest options possible.
She doesn't really game beyond the Sims much so I'm wondering what would be better, but cheap, then her current 5700 Ultra? When I had my 8500GT I believe it...
Apple Wireless Keyboard - $55 Shipped
Bought it off another guy here and have been rocking it for the last couple days. Good keyboard but I kind of miss the slightly larger wired version with it's two USB ports (had my mouse's receiver and bluetooth dongle in them) and I had a hellova time...
Looking for a 4850 or maybe a 4750 depending on price. Post what you've got and for how much and I'll PM if interested. :)
Also, I won't be buying anything until 8/28 which is when I get paid.
ITX Depot has MSI's new Q35 (assuming it's new since this is the first I've seen of it) instock.

It looks awesome, especially since I had just gave up on finding a mITX board to swap into my KPC (nice case, basic...
I'm tearing down a dead Powermac and reusing the case for PC parts. One of the side panels has a worn screw so I'm thinking I'm going to have drill it out or cut it up so I'm wondering is anyone knows of places that sell parts; either a new side panel or replacement screws (or if anyone knows...
I'm so surprised this hasn't been posted yet, seems the G45 is still suffering from some of the same issues that plagued the G965/G33/G35.
So, yeah. Intel has been saying "hope for a driver update" since the G965 to improve performance but I'm not going to bite until that update is finally...
My Info:

So I just got my iPhone (it's running 1.1.3 if that matters) and I can't get the Wifi to work correctly. If I type in anything like "www.apple.com" it says that Safari can't find the server. If I type in the IP address "17.149.160.10" then it'll load the page. As you can imagine this is a major...
