Where else to get a case?

I like the AOpen H450B, because it has a 120mm fan in the back and a place for an 80mm fan in the front, USB/, Audio, and Firewire jacks in the front (at least on the model I plan to get), and one of those TAC side holes. It's steel. I'm not sure about the included PSU and I haven't been able...

Where are the Nvidia 6150 motherboards?

Asus has put out a new manual for the A8N-VM CSM, version e2294: http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us However, I checked and the settings in the JumperFree Configuration section are the same. The only adjustment listed is for the FSB frequency (appears when...

Checksum - help me understand it please

I've used digestIT, a small program for Windows that adds an entry to the context menu in Windows Explorer (the right-click menu) with options to calculate and compare hashes: http://digestit.kennethballard.com/index.html

Please review the specs of my 3800 X2 build

One little bump for the overkill questions (too much processor, too much RAM?), just in case anyone else might have an opinion on the matter.

I'd be happy to respond, but I have no idea what you're asking me. In any case, if you're not into the Linux thing, I have no argument with that. To each his or her own, right? :confused:

Yeah, I realize that most of you all are Windows users and gamers, and that's fine. I chose to ask for your opinions anyway since I ran across that AnandTech guide that I keep mentioning, and it looked like it was intended for the purposes that interest me. So, I thought I might as well ask for...

That's it. ;) I'll probably ask my RAM/overkill questions at a board with lots of Linux users, too, since they might have a different perspective. But do you all think that the AnandTech guide recommendations (which include the 2 X 1 GB RAM suggestion as a good upgrade) are overkill in...

OK, everyone, let's drop the Raptor from consideration. As I implied before, I was really just toying with idea in the first place. I'm pretty sure I'll get 2 of the Hitachi drives, 160 MB for (multi-OS) boot and some archives, 250MB for my home directory and media files. And I am going to get...

Hmm, I'll think about that Gigabyte board. But I'm not interested in an ATI video card (is that where the link was supposed to point?), since their Linux drivers aren't as good as the ones from nVidia. It's just hard for me to judge how much video card I need since I'm upgrading from a really...

Sorry to have taken advantage of your moment of weakness, LED, but thanks for the feedback. And yours too, Gadzookie :) I probably won't get the Raptor. I do need to make up my mind about the motherboard and the video card, though.

Hi, I've been lurking here at AnandTech for a while, preparing to build a new system for the first time. I've never done this before, so there's a lot to learn. First I'll tell you what the PC will be used for, and then I'll list the parts I'm thinking of using. I'm not going to include links...
