    Best current socket 775 motherboards. Worth the upgrade?

    I have an ASUS P5K Deluxe WiFi currently that I had set up for an RMA due to USB and cold boot issues. I currently have figured out my problems with the P5K but if I send it in I will be getting cash back on the RMA so I can get what ever I want and price is of no concern :). But before I pull...

    Koolance PC4-1036BK 1,000 watt cooling system

    I’m not sure if this is the pump you are referring to. http://www.koolance.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=37_57&products_id=334 It’s the only one I can find on the Koolance site. How much quieter is it?

    Help Me build the ultimate system with 2.5-4K Dollars and a pile of hardware

    Is that only with Raid5. will the parity calculation be a problem with RAID 0 on these new boards. Wonder if I should get a Raid card. Would it be worth it? or is the onboard RAID good? If not what would be a good card to go with.

    Take her out and romance her. Then at that magic moment slip her the good news about the new core 2 chips and how it will make life even sweeter than it already is. And how life shouldn’t be about money. But, that sometimes it takes a little $ for a lot of happiness. :D Good Luck Man! ;)

    What is the very best motherboard right now for the Core2 and Why? can you run a VapoChill all the time like a regular PC. I heard they are loud and take a lot of energy. I would love to get one if it isn’t to loud and can be run all day for regular use with my cpu overclocked year...

    Loosing internet after XP in running 2+ hours

    After changing the power settings for my NIC I checked the Network connection advanced details and it says “Lease obtained 03/03/06 9:12:51 PM” and right after says “Lease expires 10/03/06 9:12:51 PM”. I hope this fixes my problem. I will report back in a few hours and let you know. -THX

    Loosing internet after XP in running 2+ hours

    I was just looking at my Network connection advanced details and it says “Lease obtained 03/03/06 8:42:51 PM” and right after says “Lease expires 03/03/06 9:42:51 PM”. I am not sure what this is but could it expire in one hour and drop my connection? Does anyone know what this is and if it could...

    Loosing internet after XP in running 2+ hours

    Ya, I was just giving a rough estimate of 2 hours. After it occurs and I correct the problem with disabling and then enabling the local area connection it can reoccur in just a few minutes or last an hour or more. It's quite random in timing. XP firewall is disabled and zonealarm is...

    Help Me build a new system with 2000 Dollars and the pile of hardware on my desk :)

    OMZ- That board does look great! I wonder if the DFI SLI board would be stable with an X2 and SLI. Hard said it wasn't the most stable board in it's review. I do some encoding and wouldnt want it to crash. JSF35rhino- The DFI-LP SLI looks like a good option for the DRR and overclocking I...

    Help Me build a new system with 2000 Dollars and the pile of hardware on my desk :)

    Well looks like I will probably go for the 7800GTX, PSU, and Mobo. Will the ASUS SLI board take my 4400+ to 2.6-2.8ghz with good cooling? I have the mushkin 3500 BH5's that like a lot of voltage. how is the VDIMM on the A8N-SLI. Will I need lower voltage DDR and if so can you recommend the...
