Might as well just recommend a new case, this one is old. I'd rather spend an extra $50 bucks than have a cooling issue. add a case on top of the budget.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Mostly Gaming, Photoshop, Some video editing, general PC usage
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
I'm thinking $500-$550, maybe more for the right stuff.
3) Where do you live?
Boston

Cheap as possible? I don't have a set budget, I just want to see if I can build a decent machine for...
I need a wall charger/power cable for my Powerbook. Bought it from a buddy who fixed it up, but he didnt have the charger for it.
Anyone got one lying around? I have heard the 65w ones for the 15/17inchers work as well.
Thanks
Serious? You are *not* restricted to 4x6's with 35mm film. you just need to scan them bigger/better.
Films not for everybody... But if you shoot Velvia, you'll know exactly what is so great about it ;)
Welp. It is cheaper to go full frame on Canon than Nikon, BUT, I think Nikon cameras have the best ergonomics and, I feel, just as good if not better IQ than Canon. But, I was already heavily invested in Nikon when I shot film too. So.
Try to hold some. The d200 is still a hell of a camera...
Yeah, I need a bios flash I do believe, but the BIOS flash on the dell website is the same bios I currently have :(
The chipset and the board can handle more than 4 gb, but the bios doesn't support the memory hole mapping at the moment
Hmm. I figured it was just an issue with the way Vista was reading what the motherboard was giving it, because the motherboard does show "4095mb available".
After a little bit of googling the numbers on the motherboard I believe the motherboard is a Foxconn DG33M03 Rev.A00.
Ok, well, I just installed SP1 for vista and it now shows 4gb.
AS far as the motherboard, I honestly could not tell you. I didn't see a brand when i was poking around in there. I'll check, but the issue is fixed. Service packs ftw.
As for the Memory Hole Remapping, theres no option in the...
Ok, so I picked up Vostro 400 for reeeeally cheap (800 with a 24inch LCD monitor)
Specs as it sits:
E6750 - 2.66ghz
4gb XMS2 DDR2 800
8800GT 512mb
160gb SATA
320gb SATA
20x DVD lightscribe burner
Vista Business --64 BIT--
when I installed the 4gb of ram first, I added it to the...
Well, my current rig is aging badly, and I've been looking at building a new computer for a while. I came across this deal on the Vostro, and figured I'd get some opinions before I pulled the trigger.
I game, lightly. Source stuff is about the max I do, but theres some other newer games i'd...
Yep, its dying. Start backing up data while you still can get into OSX.
Laptop hard drives are put in much worse situations than desktops sometimes. Between heat, moving around, etc. I replace A TON at work every week, and hardware is not our main thing.
Nikon D50
Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8
Nikon 35-70mm f/2.8
Nikon 50mm f/1.8
Nikon SB-800 Speedlite
Nikon SB-600 Speedlite
Looking to go up to add a D200, Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 and some lights/strobes in the future, and leave my D50 as the backup/2nd camera (looking to do some weddings next year)
wow, thanks guys. I've been out of the hardware game for a while now, atleast 3-4 years, this is helping me make some decisions.
only reason I'm not going q6600 is price. I'm trying to keep this around or less than $1k. If I can dash down the price of the other stuff, I might consider it...
I'm looking to put together a new machine, E6750. No overclocking, just want rock solid stability and reliability with 2gb of ram (planning on Corsair XMS2) with a PC Power and cooling 610w PSU and looking at 8800GTS's, 640mb.
Was thinking the Abit IP35, whats comparable or better? Or is...
Movie was on last night, and all of a sudden I lost video and I lost sound, but the fans and such were still spinning - the machine was still on. Hard shut down, tried to turn it back on, no dice. It was late and me and the gf were going to sleep anyways. So I didn't mess with it. I didn't have...
Eh, I just got this monitor 6 months ago... I'm not gonna go upgrade again. I don't need anything bigger, 1280x1024 is perfect for me. So 8800gts would be a good choice?
So it looks like I'm putting together a new machine... and I don't really know where to go in the video card catagory... here's what i've put together so far:
PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610 EPS12V EPS12V 610W
Crucial Ballistix 3GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
ABIT IP35-E LGA 775 Intel P35...
Uhh, its an Antec TruPower 350, IIRC. And It is a bit older, quite a bit actually. I have been meaning to upgrade that as well, but it seems to be doing its job.
So I've had my 9800 Pro for just about forever, and I was wondering if there are any other AGP cards out there worth upgrading to. I'm happy with my current rig (in sig) but just on some of the newer games I think I'm looking for a little bit more grunt in the video department to run at native...
we have an older 14inch lcd in our room, and its showing all red. red and dark red/black. i think it got hit with a flying shoe (oh dont ask...) and i wanted to know if its at all fixable. I've got good electronics knowledge, but i'd like to know before going in what i'm looking for and whether...
Yeah, I've got some ideas for weights. whats so hard about putting it back together?
edit: had some time and pulled it apart, not hard at all, but not as much room inside as i thought.... best idea for weights? my idea is coins. pennies mostly.
hey there. so I just picked up a corded microsoft optical mouse. pretty basic, 3 button scroll wheel optical mouse, because basically, thats all I want. only problem is, it is WAY too light. what would be the best way to go about opening up the mouse? someone has had to have done this before...
