    SFF (ATX) HTPC Recommendation

    Hi! I recently put together the rig in my sig, Unfortunately my new apt. does not allow for a desk so I am forced to connect it to my TV and play games via the couch (so be it) and want it tucked away in my current TV stand instead of off to the side. I need a case that can fit...

    Single card solution to match Dual 4870s + DX11 support

    Been out of the loop for a while and almost skipped an entire generation of cards, which is pretty rare! I'm building a new rig and I've tried to be semi conscious about power consumption (less HDDs, more efficient PSU, less fans, etc.) and was thinking that surely I can find a single card...

    New mobo for Q9450+Xfire

    I believe my mobo as died (no post beeps, USB ports won't power gear, etc) PSU seems fine as everything turns on, spins up, etc. My dilemma is I cannot find a MOBO that supports the Q9450 AND Xfire (still using Dual 4870s) anywhere they're out of stock and I am not really wanting to shell out...

    She's dead, Jim...

    My rig finally bit the dust. Powered up fine all lights and fans, keyboard/mouse lights, HDDs spin up, etc. No beeps. No Post. No video signal. After one or two restarts the keyboard/mouse cease to light-up (they work fine with my laptop). So I check the USB ports with other gear. The...

    6.12s ate my sound card (ATI T200 Unified Stream Driver)!

    Installed a pair of x1950xtx this evening, and I had sound through my X-fi, discovered I had a '?' regarding the ATI T200 Unified Stream Driver, I let windows find the driver, it found it, I rebooted, no sound, my rig doesn't even see the soundcard listed anymore (comes up as no device...

    ARgh (PSU 12v cable length) and new case!

    So I pick up the Antec 900 - hated the build quality - floppy tray was a nightmare. Returned it for a P180b - on sale for $98! I have an Antec Neo 550w PSU (and a PCP&C silencer 750 I picked up last night as well). The 750 will not fit in the Pb180, not matter what, the Antec fits well...

    No room?

    I'm running pretty tight as is (see sig), it was a stretch getting my Audio card wedged between the Xfire cards and the slot at the bottom my case is taken up by my firewire card (which I use). With another card to add (I will get one) I will have to lose FW. Anyone eslse facing this?

    Good PSU Calculator?

    I haven't had any issues with my current rig (see sig) but I wanted to find out a way to see what my rig is actually consuming to see if I need a bigger PSU. Most calcs I have found on the web put me under 550w (around 520w), but with little overhead.

    X2

    I'm going to pick up an X2, but I don't know which one! I'm not going to overclock (unless I can do it easily, no water and if an improved HS/F will do the trick). Is the 4400 the sweet spot? 3800?

    Buy RD480 now, or wait for the RD580

    So I hear in passing (reliable) that there is going to be yet another delay (past February 23rd) on the arrival of the RD580. I want to build my rig! I have my Xfire boards all set and ready to go, just need to buy mobo/cpu/ram and I'm set. Would it be stupid not to wait for a sure thing?

    x2 4400 or x2 4800

    I'm building a new rig in the next few days and I'm torn between processors =) Obvioulsy the 3900 is the best bang for you $$ as far as overclocking, which I haven't been into in a while (running an intel/asus P4PE so not much wiggle room). Anyway, is it just a waste for the 4800 over the...

    Going up to 2G, use old RAM?

    Which AMD CPU?

    I'm currently running a P4 3.06 and I am switching out to a PCIE/SLI setup. My question is, which AMD CPU would best the P4? I'm leaning towards an X2 as I do other things than just play games, but I won't lie, I use the rig for gaming 80% of the time.

    Quietest P4 cooler?

    I'm not overclocking my P4 3.02GHz, but i want to keep it cool and keep the noise down. I'm using an older Coolermaster Case (ATCS 200 model w/Exhaust hole on the top; currently blocked off for noise reduction) and the stock Intel HS/Fan combo. Is there anything quieter than this that either...
