    P4 Mobo PCI-E recommendation

    I am at work, providing all the pertinent information completely slipped my mind. I will post it later when I get home because I am not exactly sure whats all in it anymore or what socket. I know its a P4 3Ghz, but as for socket and ram couldnt tell you off the top of my head.

    P4 Mobo PCI-E recommendation

    I currently have 2 systems up and running, and since I cannot seem to get rid of my 7950GT 512mb card I was thinking of installing it on my older machine. The problem is my old comp has an AGP slot and no PCI-E slots. I would like to get a good board that is stable and has a PCI-E slot, what...

    Deal on the Antec 900

    True quad core processing

    I am not a fanboi I never really knew much about computers when I first started building them and I stuck with Intel because it was main stream or I should say was advertised alot. Right now fanboi or not AMD is in trouble, they can claim that Intel has copied them but the fact is Intel CPUs...

    Building kids' computer

    Seems like your going in the right direction, I would go with the Intel Chipset and not the 680i boards as they will not be supporting ALL the new CPUs to be released in the future.

    Wow 8800gt out of stock, where to get?

    Might as well wait the prices are still rising, my 7950GT is holding up fine, though the 8800 sitting in its box is tough to ignore. If I didnt want to get another mobo I would be running it now!!!

    New 780I boards

    Yea I have read alot up on the 780I but I am still leaning toward the intel chipset. I am so far behind and lost on the mobo issue that it will take me forever to find one that supports my current C2D and the new Yorkies (LOL) and still support all my old hardware and good for OC. I might...

    Case modding

    I used regular Krylon paint I just wanted to see what it would turn out as, I did wet sand it, but no Clear Coat.I plan on redoing it again when I rebuild my comp. I left the Mobo in and used a grease pencil to mark out where I wanted the holes. From there I just use a drill and drilled...
