I'll have to give that a try when I have time. I have every available mounting point screwed on.

GPU: Onboard and HD4000 series PSU: Antec Earthwatts 380W and Antec 700W

I don't.

I wasn't sure where to post this. The problem started with the computer not posting/booting. The lights, fans, optical drive, and HDDs power on, but nothing comes on to the display. I've tried 2 monitors, 2 GPU (onboard and PCIe), 2 power supplies, and eventually another motherboard. Is this...

What kind of issues were you having? I was able to get everything working with the drivers on the disc that was provided. I did have a problem with flickering during blu-ray playback, but I fixed this by updating the BIOS and updating the video drivers via nVidia's website.

I actually just got that motherboard today and paired it with an AMD 5050e. I can't really say if there's a better choice, but I chose it because it fit my "requirements: AM2 Socket for the AMD 45W CPUs nVidia 8300 w/ video and audio support via HDMI mATX to fit an Antec NSK2480 case I...

Are H264 files basically BD rips/ISOs? I was looking for quiet, cool, and energy "efficient" CPU.

Thanks! I will be using in a HTPC/File Server. I have another computer for gaming.

While looking at prices for a AMD 4050e CPU, I noticed that there's a 5050e. Of course the 5050e cost more, but are there enough advantaged and increased performance that would warrant the costs? I'm assuming the 5050e has more OC potential, but I don't really plan on OCing. In addition, I...

Thanks! I'll have to take a look at both. I've always leaned towards ASUS and Gigabyte.

Thanks! Can you guys recommend some Nvidia 8200/8300 mATX mobos less than $130? I was able to find these: ASUS M3N78-VM AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail ASUS M3N78-EM AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8300 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

I am planning to build a computer to serve as a HTPC, BitTorrent, and maybe even a file media server that will be used in my bedroom. I would love for the rig to be cool, quiet, and energy efficient. Here's a list of what I have so far: Antec NSK2480 mATX Case w/ 380 EarthWatts PSU 4GB...

Any opinions on MSI K9NBPM2-FID? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130065&Tpk=MSI%2bK9NBPM2-FID

1) What's your budget and what is included in that budget (tax/shipping, keyboard, monitor, OS, etc; if you're not in the US, please specify country)? $100 to $150 for CPU and mobo 2) What will you be doing with this system besides gaming (eg: media ripping/encoding, watching hd videos, CAD...

I was hoping I wouldn't need to upgrade my PSU. If I was willing to shell out more money on the mobo, do you think this would be a good option: MSI K9NBPM2-FID AM2 NVIDIA Quadro NVS 210S Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

My motherboard finally died on me after 3-4 years, and I wanted to go ahead and "upgrade" my rig. I plan to use it for light gaming and don't care for OC'ing. I plan on recycling: Antec Sonata w/ 380W PSU 2 IDE HDs 2 optical drives I recently bought: A-Data DDR2 800 2GB (2 x...

it's so hard finding a cheap one. i tried ebay and i can't tell what is real and what is fake

so when the installation finishes and you reboot you get that screen? if it's the same problem i've ran into before, take the windows xp cd out and reboot

how do you have your drives and cables set up? i'm guessing you have the HD on one IDE cable and the 2 optical drives on the other optical cable. check the jumpers on the optical drives just to make sure.

yeah. i'll tweak with it when i finish all my finals at school

First off let me give the basis as to what i have: Crucial Radeon 9700 Pro Chaintech VNF3-250 Athlon 64 2800+ 1GB Ram I just got the VGA Silencer Rev. 3 today. I took off the stock fan and cleaned the chip. I then applied the paste that was included with the VGA Silencer. I put it on...

i'm not surprised. i'm guessing their CSR's only take inbound calls and can't make any outbounds calls.

i think i'm starting to have similar problems

I just used the Chaintech VNF3-250 for my first build. Works great for me, but then again I'm an average user. I got a refurbished Crucial 9700 Pro w/ 128MB for $129.99.

i couldn't get Seagate's CD to work to reformat and partition. it would load in that "special DOS mode" and say i have an "IDE CD-ROM drive installed" and stop right there. i ended up popping in a Win98 bootup disk and formatted with fdisk. now i have WinXP SP2 installed. i used Norton...

As soon as they get it packed, they'll overnight it. That's what they did for me. I got an email saying I would get a free gift, but I don't see it.

looks like i'll be formatting thanks!

I partitioned my Seagate 120GB HDD in 3 parts: 30GB for OS, 2GB for Swap, and remainder for Storage. I kept getting this message in my system tray saying that my Swap is full. I tried using Partition Magic to resize Swap and Storage partitions. When I rebooted, the resizing didn't even work...

have you gotten your check yet?

i wish they would've did that for me. they don't even know when mine's going to be sent out

I have my eye on the Chaintech VNF3-250, but I might splurge for the Asus K8V SE Deluxe. How much performance and features, as an average user, would I be losing if I went with the Chaintech? I don't plan to overclock. Well, maybe not initially.

I plan put a A64 2800+ in one of these. At first I was planning to buy the Chaintech VNF3-250, but people told me to go with ABIT or ASUS. What do you guys think of both of these boards?

drinking while working the dremel looks good

i want to try to softmod it and save money! i checked ebay and saw 1 non-pro one. any place that still sells it new or refurbed? does the manufacturer matter that much?

I'm guessing an ECS mobo

100-200 I would really like to spend less than $150

I'm a noob and I don't know anything about video cards! I'm looking for a video card for a system I'm planning to build. So far I've got: Antec Sonata case w/ 380 PSU 1Gig of Corsair ram I plan on going A64 2800+ w/ the Chaintech VNF3... I'm a light gamer and wanted to know what would be...
