Remember with rebates, once you cut off that barcode, no warranty or returns back to Newegg. You will probably not get the rebate from OCZ anyways... they have a Knack for declining for anything including a fly spec on the bar code when received... nope DECLINED. I have a 3 week OCZ SSD sitting...

Found out mine was a Patriot PS-100 drive.... noticed that when I got the RAID rom screen display. Need to check the IRST screen for firmware.. I never noticed that before being listed... thanks for the tip. But so far it is working great as a cache drive in a Z68 setup. I locked it up last...

We had a flood in Dallas yesteday... does that count? I didn't see any hard drives floating around the waters but do hds float? Rob in Mesquite,Tx

I wonder how the sata controller is hard coded to the WD drive though.. how would it have known the original drive wasnt back in there? rob in Mesquite,Tx

Bababooey; Your posted firmware date is showing 110322. That is newer than the posted firmware of 110309. That is interesting. With mine being a Raid drive in a cache, I cant see my drive anymore to get the information off it. Good luck on the format to get it installed on laptop. You might try...

I did the open the case for internal hd on the WD element 2 tb last month sale at Staples for 89.99. There is a link to show where to press the tabs back to open the case at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZUMh_H3B_Y. Many had reported that they received a WD Black Label but mine was a...

Supposedly the SSD was a TORX first generation according to the number they have on their website. I am running as a cache drive in a Z68X mb setup with no problems. Its a Sata II and not real fast but faster than a hard drive.

Are you asking how I set up the cache drive? I have the Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 motherboard so this applies to it: I downloaded the newest IRST from intel and installed them then installed the Intel SATA drivers by unpacking then control panel/system/device manger and updating drivers on the...

Thanks... did anyone happen to check the firmware version of the received drive? If it was a TorX TRB series, they only offer one firmware update V110309 (I assume this is release date 3/9/2011) Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Installed the drive in my Z68X system as a cache drive. After reinstalling the drivers, it detected the drive and operated just great. Now I have to RMA my Agility 3 SSD since it was junk. I am very happy with the 34.00 investment and their fast shipping. Does anyone know for sure if this was...

Drive is suppose to be here today via UPS.. (1 day shipping ... not bad).. I will hook it up and see what it does..... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Yeh, I am going to try it for a Z68 SSD caching since it really only needs 20 gb ssd drive for that.... I had a OCZ Vertex 60gb that quit on me after a few days (they are junk!). I hope this works just fine for this caching.. Hard to pass up for that price, even if it fails after 6 months, it...

I didn't but with my Powercolor 6950 blowing up 2 wks after I bought it, I guess, maybe I should have.

I had bought a Powercolor 6950 back in November 2011. It ran for about 2 weeks then blew up. Now, only the fan runs. I had to RMA it back to Powercolor... They have had it for like 3 weeks with no answer on replacement yet. I wonder if there is a problem with all 6950's? Rob in Mesquite Tx.

Gigabyte's Z68 motherboards are not much better..My Z68 has had a lan device quit and the raid rom quit working or being detected... plus the SSD cache device works intermediately. Its like they almost get something working then move on to another type bios/type motherboard... and they leave us...

This is the one I went with since it has touch panel controls and it has a large (2) 5.25" opening and looked nice when on. I should get it Thursday and let you know how it works in person. http://www.xoxide.com/aerocool-touch2000-lcdtemp-fancontroller.html

Gigabyte Z68's mb's allow Vcore adjusting but not Memory adjustments. Might try ASUS.

Looks like it would melt the plastic connectors at 390F.

Yeh, I was going to buy it for 19.99 but then I got to thinking, wasn't all the posting saying that the game was crap... so I passed on this deal....Sure like a good racing game

I think small form is cutting edge tech.... it's the wave of the future and we are leading the pack.... Someday all pc's will be small.... Size DOESN'T matter anymore!

It would have been nicer if they would have placed Vista Media Center on it and placed a TV card in it for a custom PVR/BlueRay player system.... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Yeh, 79.00 didnt seem to unreasonable of a price to pay for what your getting. I just pay that and save the hassle of finding a used one. You gotta pay to play.... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

If you wanted to get out cheap, you could get this system for 289.00 http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=TS-0008M-C2D818-R&cat=SYS add a cheap $100.00 19" LCD and a $80.00 ATI 4750 video card and he would have a nice gaming system/media computer that would be the envy of all his friends...

What is so special about the NEC chipset? I think I have 10 usb outlets on my system now and almost need another USB slot open. Rob in Mesqute,Tx

All I can say is that your are more honest about this than I would be. I would use this reasoning "the good Lord must've meant for me to have this motherboard and is telling me to build another system using this DIVINE motherboard". I then order another 1800.00 of stuff from Newegg to...

RE:I loaded one up for dad xmas gift, with a pci ATI 2400" Yeh I tried to find a PCI ATI 2400 on ebay but they wanted too much for them used.. they were going for about 50.00 each.. I run SAGETV on my K45 and record Satellite shows. I tested all the PVR software and that one seemed the best...

I know on my computer I use a 525watt Antec power supply with no problem. Although my 12V is running at 11.98v due to the heavy load of drives,lights,fans on it.. not to mention the 4870 which everyone knows is a power hungry beast! Rob in Mesquite,Tx

I had downloaded the Demo of Fear2 and now just ordered it for 29.90 from that gaming site. I will see how it runs on my 4870 card... the graphics on the Demo looked pretty good... I am more interested in the MP part though... Is MP pretty decent on this game? Rob in Mesquite,Tx

I just bought 2 Sidewinder X6 Keyboards and would like to get one of these x8 mouse if they are actually a good gamer mouse.. if anyone gets one, let us know how it works in a shooter environment. Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Yeh I like my little K45 system alot... I use it for TV recording (PVR)... but it is so damn cute, how could you not like it... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

I used my for a Beyond TV setup. I have a PVR tv card in mine that I can record tv. I dont notice the PSU fan making any noise.. Mine is really quote all the time.. I have a 120mm fan mounted in the back to keep it cool but its quite too. Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Anyone know where I could get some cool pre shaped covers for the K45? Rob in Mesquite,Tx

I have had good luck with the MSI Neo3-F Intel P43 Motherboard. I got the board fairly cheap at frys (80.00 range). The heat pipes and the overclocking was decent. Plus all those PCI slots (4) might come in handy somedays.... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Is a Antec 550 True Power Trio a good PSU for a HD4870? I sure hope so.. it runs my current ATI HD2900Pro just fine.... Rob in Mesquite,Tx

According to recent reviews the GTX260 is a tad faster than a ATI4870 in some games but the price is still cheaper on the ATI4870 so you have to weight price over small speed increase... I just bought a HD4870 for 152.50... couldnt pass on that one... It should last until the middle of 2009...

A good AGP card is a X1950.. they are cheap and they really have a good speed in playing games below 1280x1024 resolution Rob in Mesquite,Tx

Does price include shipping? Also does the card come with all the cables and connectors/box/software? One last ?: Take Paypal? Nacarob from Mesquite Tx

I actually like the MX500 keyboard/mouse better.. its a nicer looking keyboard with a nice blue color.. Ill buy one when they appear on www.justdeals.com rob

That shipping looks high on that one.. Maybe their computer got tired of adding the wt of all those items and just guessed at the shipping (in their favor of course).

ygpm on the razor mouse... lets work up a deal on it
