Will the HX1000 fit in my P180?

I've decided to buy a new case, with Nehalem and r700 coming soon I may as well make a project out of it. But I did get it to fit by removing the fan in the lower chamber. I tried losing the plastic housing Antec stuck in there and screwing the fan directly onto the other side of the divider...

Will the HX1000 fit in my P180?

Seems I'm not the only one with this problem :D Will the Corsair HX1000 fit? I've heard that I might have to do away with the lower chamber fan, which would kinda suck because I like my hdds to be as cool as possible. With my current PSU the clumped-up cables almost touch it (Enermax 485W)...

Will I need to upgrade my PSU for Nehalem?

I'm quoting someone else with the same PSU, but: "dual 18A rails with a total of 32A" Also I heard aging PSUs can screw up an otherwise possible overclock, is that true? If I could get my 3.4GHz by simply upgrading the PSU I would do it in a heartbeat. Thanks for the replies!

Will I need to upgrade my PSU for Nehalem?

Hi, I would like to know if my 485W Enermax Noisetaker (original, not II) will work with Nehalem/Nehalem mobos. It's an ATX2.0 PSU, few years old now. If not can you recommend me one currently on the market that would also support the new 4870 graphics card from ATi? I run 3 HDDs, 4 sticks of...

Need advice about my winraid

OK, well I have a raid-5 setup running under windows XP. Basically I want something that can give me a 'snapshot' of the volume (just directory structure and filenames) and record it in a text file and email it to my gmail account. It has to be automated and scheduled as I'll just forget to do...

Evaluate my new rig

I just bought a p5b (non-deluxe), 2GB Crucial Ballistix PC6400 C4, e6320, leadtek 8800gts 640 and a p180. Just a few quick questions: Will I be able to get to 3GHz with no fuss? Will the gfx card fit without having to take off the chipset heatsink/other bs? I bought it all in a rush to...

Whats your take single 8800 GTX or 2 8800 GTS running SLI?

If you can wait, just get a 8900 when the refresh comes. Otherwise a single GTS is fine for that res...

2x EVGA 8800GTS 320MB KO ACS3 or 1 EVGA 8800GTX

People here always recommend single card over SLI. Driver support for SLI is not good last I heard. I'd probably agree with them and say sell the 320 to fund a GTX :D Also get a 24"+ monitor if you don't already :P

HD2900XT came today!!!

So you bought a 2900XT to play CS and CoH? I do not understand why anyone wants this card. The people who do buy it seem to be afraid to really test it with modern games.

HARDOCP 2900xt Review! (a proper review)

I also like HOCP, 3DMark is meaningless to real gamers. Instead of poring over 26-page dissertations you can use a drop-down list and click "page x - Oblivion" and get an instant real-world idea of how far you can push your card. I don't understand why people bash it when they also include...

How do I find out if my VGA port supports YPbPr?

I was trying to avoid the cost of a VGA box but I just bit the bullet and ordered an X2VGA 2. £40 delivered so not breaking the bank and I actually need a switching solution for my 360 and Wii so it's a worthwhile investment for the convenience I think.

How do I find out if my VGA port supports YPbPr?

I have a Viewsonic VX2025WM and want to play my Wii on it. I want to use a cable like this: http://www.futureshop.co.uk/btxl18008-c...video-to-vga-hd15-cable-08m-p-742.html and a gender changer to plug it into the VGA port. But it says it must be capable of supporting a "YPbPr" signal...
