Avoid that DFI P.O.S. It needs major BIOS work and DFI admitted it's even going to require a new hardware revision (at least one). It will give you nothing but problems in its current state.
Visit the DFI Street Forum and check out the thread about it. It has almost 3,000 replies (!)...
Antec CS600 is a great, roomy case which I recently bought at CompUSA for $40 (after MIR). It's the same build and design as their more expensive SOHO options (it just doesn't come with case fans); I highly recommend it. Take the money saved and buy a kick ass power supply to go along with it...
I have an Athlon XP 1800+ Tbred running with PC133 RAM on an MSI K7T Turbo2 motherboard which uses the VIA KT133A chipset. It's extremely speedy and it the most stable system I've ever worked on :)
Enermax :thumbsup:
AWESOME brand, reliable power supplies...and like was said above, you won't have to use adapters to make your cables reach everywhere you need them to :)
You should've avoided this motherboard until they get a new hardware revision out and they release a working BIOS. Right now you are just wasting your time and money. It's a P.O.S. in its current state.
Sure thing. You dont' have to buy them in pairs; it's just "recommended" to do so because they've been previously tested to work together without any problems. You likely won't encounter any issues when buying separate 1GB sticks.
Here's the part # of the 1GB stick: OCZ4001024ELPE...
How do you figure that the KT800Pro isn't prime for overclocking?! It's great. The first revision of the Asus A8V Deluxe did not have a working PCI/AGP lock, but that was a long time ago. They've got all the tools to get the job done now :thumbsup:
Yes, I own the Powerstream 520w and the cables are nowhere near the length of my Enermax power supplies. I found the OCZ cable length to be tight in an Antec CS600 (where the PSU is mounted, traditional-style, at the top of the case where it's nearest the ATX connector on the motherboard)...
I'm just warning you that you're fighting a losing battle. DFI is suggesting a hardware revision on top of everything else. Read that thread more carefully. It's not just a matter of wacky hardware configurations. The BIOS revisions suck and now (today) it's being reported that DFI is...
