*** Official ASUS M2N-E Thread ***

I'm thinking it should, as long as you have enough power from the PSU. On a side note, my friend is dropping a 6000+ windsor into his m2n-e, I see a couple of you guys who have it... I'm assuming it works fine and it can handle the 125W TDP?

upgrade now or wait for possible new releases

Your system in the sig section looks fine for another year. The new stuff coming out won't be top of the line and time-tested nor will they offer the best performance of their generation. DX10 won't magically become the new standard overnight so many of next year's games will only be the cream...

Safe GPU temperature for my eVGA 7900GT?

idling at 50 is pretty warm imo, my 7800GT idles at around 40 and, barring the larger hsf, your 7900GT should be at least closer to 40 than 50. However, load temps can go as high as 70 even 80 is no prob I think. As long as it doesn't boil water...it should be fine ahaha

CS:S vs BF2

lmao, i hated CS 1.6 and I still kinda dislike CS:S. BF2 is eating up some of my time but neither compared to Wolfenstein:ET. No respawns in CS meant waiting forever sometimes, the people that are CS freaks will get that headshot/awp shot 96% of the time, and you'll be back in limbo without even...

more BF2 EuroForce woes

I don't personally have it but I've read that you sometimes have to re-install BF2, then SF/EF, then patch it. I've only spent $45 on BF2 so far and I might get SF if it hits $20. Until then, I can't personally tell you that that solution works.

According to Valve's hardware survey, most people still use CRT's, Few People Use the X-Fi.

Doom3... scariest game ever?

Doom 3 isn't scary, Fatal Frame II: Director's cut, is unbelievably scary. Not only can you not do the daemons/ghosts justice with weapons, you are a young teen girl armed with a non-digital camera! Haven't tried FFIII yet nor the first one but this one just crossed the line after getting bored...

LOL I should also reiterate that the "next-gen" Intel CPU beats today's FX-60...as new technology should be expected to do. While I don't doubt that AM2 might take a while just to catch up to conroe as hinted by the AT review, it doesn't mean I'll throw away my baby x2 away once the end of...

Dual Core?

Going to Dual-core in general is an awesome bargain. Multi/dual thread apps/games in the future can be utilized better (so what if it's slower than at that current time's CPU's, you saved $xxx), multiple single thread apps are smoother, and it's almost saying you got 2 CPU's in 1! I did some...

Well when the base price is cheaper than the egg's base price before shipping + tax, I don't feel so badly "ripped off". ZZF I've found to be a no-nonsense online retailer. Imo after 3 orders their packaging/shipping may be a little slower than Newegg but my stuff has to come in from the west...
