I wired the cathodes off of the 12V line coming from the XBOX 360 power pack. We are getting the negative from the chassis as it is the negative/ground. I wasnt that hard but we did a good deal of wire hiding. Hotglue is a GREAT invention along with the dremel.

I would just like to say that when overclocking do not overclock unless you have the money to replace it. Moving on. You need a good motherboard, power supply, ram, and cooling. When overclocking try to keep your Core 2 Duo UNDER 65C at FULL load on all cores. Also a rule of thumb with...

OUt of those listed go with the ASUS 3870X2 as it has more features and better cooling. But the 4870X2's will be out and will be far faster. I suggest waiting it out.

Check out Look@LAN. http://www.snapfiles.com/get/lanlook.html This will scan your network using a range that you define. It can also detect the range you are using and then scan it. I use it at LAN parties to see who is active on the network. ~Tim

G4m3rof1337 and I host LAN's in the downtown area, Chicago, and in Willowbrook, IL. We are hosting a large one (150+) in December. Any interested?

Yup. looks great. Thanks for letting me help mod that!

The HD 2400 isnt that bad either. A friend of mine has the Visiontek 512MV HD 2400 Pro agp and it runs all his games (CSS, TF2, COD4, etc)

Yup. The combo locks will be better. No keyhole to pick.

Just curious as to if any of you go to LAN parties?

ASUS or Gigabyte P35 based board will be your best bet. Check out NewEgg.com ~Tim

Get a good Swiftech from Xoxide.com. The Thermaltake kits are a joke. That one you are looking at wont cool a QX6850 under 40C idling with an ambient temp of 23C. Trust me Swiftech is FAR better. ~Tim

Here are two that I have used. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151063 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817338019

Sounds like it is a motherboard issue.

it is probably because the PCIE bus is out of spec. Try a PCI network card and see if it fixes it. This is a common issue from my experience with Overclocking on the intel chipsets.

I have the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 and just curious to see what everyone else has them running at. Please list your voltage, FSB, Multiplier, Motherboard, PSU, and cooling method. Also if possible provide a CPUZ validation. Here are my 2 overclocking runs (stable and bench): Stable: E8400...

Hey whats up. I am a new member here and was just woundering if any of you had issues with Thermaltake Toughpower Power Supplies. I just recently had one just up and quit on me after 1 year of use. It actually shorted out and caused my battery backup to kick in the overload protection. Now TT...
