    Good PSU

    OCZ's are rebranded Topower units manufactured to OCZ specs which are quite high. So is Tagan a rebranded Topwer. The 600W OCZ has dual 12v rails, the smaller ~500W unit has a single 12v rail. The only reason you would need a single 12v rail is if you are running something like dual Xeons as...

    Is it worth it to try to build your own pc?

    I agree a pre-built PC with professional tech support is the way to go, but instead of Dell I am going to say go HP. For about the same amount of money you can get an HP Athlon64 versus a Dell CeleronII that will perform better. Since Dell started charging for shipping total price is about the...

    Socket 939 Opteron QnA?

    In general, no, though as good or better than x2's of the same week/stepping. It seems one core is sometimes weaker than the other and holds back the potential of the other core. Some people say you can "massage" weak cores with stress/burn-in at lower volts and improve their stability at...

    Socket 939 Opteron QnA?

    Yes. The only real difference between socket 939 Opty's and Athlons is that Opterons are of a higher quality silicon and as such will, in general, run at rated speed at lower voltages and cooler temps than Athlons though YMMV (Opteron specs call for 1.3-1.35v but mine defaults to 1.36v). Also...

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    SVC is good for that as well. Not the selection of ZZF or Atacom but good for pick ups of heavy items like cases to avoid shipping, or when you need a heatsink or fan that day. San Jose address but about half a mile from the Milpitas city limits.

    A8N32-SLI Deluxe BIOS 903

    It was a link to the 0903 BIOS that was not yet available on the Asus websites. It is now though.

    A8N32-SLI Deluxe BIOS 903

    Hey thanks for that. That sounds good because I am looking at the BIOS chip on my board and it says N32P9 0903 B83E GS C03. I'm gonna assume the 0903 means 0903 :) Saves me a flash! Well on my "bench" next to me I have my CPU installed, a first Big Typhoon install under my belt (very easy...

    A8N32 BIOS Mumbo Jumbo

    Hey, you are building my computer! I have my 175 and A8N32, going to fire them up tonight with some OCZ plat rev2 but the Redlines are on the way. I'll be watching for your posts because all those BIOS settings are bewildering to me, the manual is technically accurate but completely useless...

    A8N32-SLI Deluxe BIOS 903

    Hey, that's interesting stuff. I have mine new and unopened, was going to fire it up tonight and assumed that it was going to be 508. Anyone tried 903 or 1009 for any period of time? Should I go with 805? Not interested in RAID right now, I'll settle for stable overclock and accurate...

    Want your Big Typhoon to run 2C cooler in 1 minute?

    Hey davexl! Thanks for the tip, got my holes plugged and will be installing my new Typhoon for the first time in about an hour. I have a Panaflo Medium speed (~80 CFM) I was going to use but I was afraid of hanging that much weight on the end of the Typhoon...it has to be almost twice the...

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    No doubt he did. But things peaked at $600 yesterday afternoon with this poor fool (or should I say rich? or formerly rich?), and now there are about 20 boards available for $335 via Buy It Now!, several boards in regular auctions are still in the 200's near closing.

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    Yeah, I had an In Stock Alert/Auto-Notify set up on that and got nothing, not even in my spam trap. Went to NewEgg and my account still shows I have a request in to be notified. Good to know that does not work.

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    Should I let Arctic Silver 5 setup and cure for a certain number

    Yes, you can safely overclock immediately after application but you will not see maximum results for a few days and a few thermal cycles. From Arctic Silver: Important Reminder: Due to the unique shape and sizes of the particles in Arctic Silver's conductive matrix, it will take a up to 200...

    Which cpu cooler? - A8N32-SLI & Corsair Twinx2048-3500LL

    Just for anybody wondering, if you install it the way Thermalright instructs, with the over hang almost touching the northbridge heatsink fins and the heat pipes towards the RAM slot, then yes Slot A1 is blocked. From the Thermalright compatibility chart regarding A8N32: " *****The overhanging...

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    I got an email from ZipZoomFly that they had them in.... for a few minutes. In the time it took me to log in and put in my credit card number it was too late. It was "Limit 20 per Customer" so be looking for some more on eBay

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    $550 $450 $561 $340 I thought very briefly about selling mine when it gets here, but I am firmly of the opinion that an A8N32-SLI Deluxe will get me through times of no money better than money will get me through times of no A8N32-SLI Deluxe :)

    ati xpress 200 chipst+nvidia card=nightmare

    I have used ATI/nVidia together as well with no problems and concur it is almost certainly not a chipset/video card compatibility issue. The people here and here seem to think its the PSU, so unless you have time to burn installing drivers and fiddling with RAM try a new PSU already and be done...

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    LOL, I understand, but that's one of our problems, don't you think? All I can do is share what little wisdom I have accumulated at my advanced age, that being I have found often my appreciation of something is directly proportional to the non-monetary investment of time and energy spent on it...

    Anybody know where to get a AN32-SLI Deluxe?

    Yes, on a bench. I always wait until I have OS boot before placing into the case. Don't get caught up in all my particulars, just looking for an answer to the question I asked: Given one motherboard on a bench, no CPU, no RAM, no Video, no drives, nothing connected at all except power and...

    Diagnosing Failure to POST

    Given one motherboard on a bench, no CPU, no RAM, no Video, no drives, nothing connected at all except power and the case speaker, and assuming power is good, should I get any beeps at all from the BIOS? I was under the impression that I should get some response out of the BIOS even in this...

    Asus A8N-SLI and Antec NeoHE 500

    That PSU will not work with an Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe revision 1.0 or 1.01. Reason I know is I have a rev 1.01 board and the NeoHE 550 will not boot the computer, so I did a lot of research and I hear all other revisions and version of the A8N are O.K. then others say different. Something about...

    0kay.....p180 or the CM 830....

    I agree. In the same issue they spend a whole section on how to change out your PSU/Video Card/RAM/MB. That same info is available via Google, and info the majority of Max PC readers already possess. That's just not what I subscribe(d) to "Maximum" PC for.

    0kay.....p180 or the CM 830....

    I saw that too. It was mostly because their PSU had short rails and their MB power connectors were at the very top of the board so it made for a frustrating install. Also they were not impressed with the plastic side shroud. But do not put much stock in their evaluation, though. I own...

    Best 19" (or higher) LCD Gaming Monitor?

    No need to explain. All that matters is how it looks to you and your eyes, all the reviews and specs can go out the window. And yeah, these things are expensive. If I hadn't come into a bit o' money out of sheer luck there is no way I would have spent $700+ on a monitor, even the 19" little...

    Best 19" (or higher) LCD Gaming Monitor?

    I don't know what LCDs you have been looking at, but as an owner of an NEC MultiSync FE950+ immediately before purchasing a ViewSonic VP201b this past May I can say there is simply no comparison. I was quite pleased with my CRT up until I took delivery of my LCD, and my plan was to use both in...

    Best 19" (or higher) LCD Gaming Monitor?

    I love my ViewSonic VP201B, run you about $700-$750. I am heavy into UT2004 and HL2, and this monitor handles them flawlessly. So much more detail and color than my old NEC MultiSync 950FE+ CRT I really could not believe it at first. True 16.7M colors, not dithered "16M+". Also, don't make...

    Can not get my motherboards to work in PC

    I had the same problem, everything powered on but no video and no BIOS beeps. Tried a new CPU and I was off to the races. Try booting with no CPU and see if you at least get BIOS beep codes. I you do get beeps without the CPU but not with the CPU, its probably the CPU.
