*** Official ABIT IS7/G/E (865PE) Thread ***

MajorKong, Quite frankly, if you're building these machines for a company, and reliability is the main issue you're concerned with, why on earth are you hand building them? It used to be cheaper to do it that way, but with the discounts a company like Dell gets, you're going to get more...

*** Official ABIT IS7/G/E (865PE) Thread ***

Just a quick update on my problem ... I bought a pair of 512MB Kingston HyperX PC3500 today at Best Buy for $120ea. (WOW)! Pulled the Corsair, popped in the HyperX, and my "mysterious problems" went away. Odd, because Corsair is usually the really good stuff, but suffice it to say that I'll be...

Well, this has been an adventure. I've got a P4 2.4C, and Abit IS7 (BIOS 14), and two sticks of Corsair TWINX 3200C2 (512MB each). The machine will post fine at all stock settings. The SPD is reading the ram at 2,3,3,7 ... the RAM is rated at 2,3,3,6 according to the Corsair website. I can...

Hottish? SonyEriccson T68 for $169 w/1 Year cntrct. Portland + Chicago + more.

First, the phone is $200 from AT&T because they're subsidizing part of the cost in exchange for the contract. As a result, the phone is "SIM Locked" to AT&T's network. Second, the phone is slow, but a pending firmware upgrade should speed it up, making it the equivalent of a T68i. I've been...

GA-8IRXP Issues

The only issue I have with my 8IRXP is that it can only see half my stick of 512MB OCZ PC2700. Other than that, I've got the F6 BIOS, and my 1.6 Northwood is running perfectly stable at 140MHz FSB at DEFAULT voltage. Now, if only it could see the full 512MB ... D'oh!

While they are up, I've grabbed screen captures of each page with the wording on it. If they want to try to screw me, they need to try to explain that. You know, it would have been very simple if they had just used the disclaimer "while supplies last." Idiots.

Either that, or they guessed the weight. Settle down, folks ... let's give Buy.com a CHANCE to do the right thing. Considering how short on stock they were, I'd say that even if you got one now, an one later, it's better than NONE now.

Big difference is that the Linksys cannot be rack-mounted like the SMC can. That's a big plus in my book. When the wife and I get our house, I'm putting a rack in the Garage to run all my home automation stuff. Being able to rack-mount the switches is a big deal.
