P5N32-E SLI 680i MCP and SPP temperature

I have an HR-05/SLI on the NB (SPP) on my Striker Extreme. The latest version of Everest Ultimate (4.50/1343 BETA) shows a temp of 84°C. I have an E6750 @ 3.2GHz, not a huge O/C. Does that temperature seem high, or is that fairly normal for the 680i? I suppose I could always put a fan...

Rougestar, True, but I am also finding out that the warranty is different with the OEM versus the retail.

Seagate ST3320620AS-RK (RETAIL)

Does anyone know where I can buy the Seagate ST3320620AS-RK? This the retail version, not the OEM bare drive that all the etailers try to sell us. Anandtech's RTPE has a couple of etailers listed as having 'retail' drives, but when you go to their site, it's always the OEM version. And, yes...

Where Are The Gigabyte GA-N680SLI-DQ6 Motherboards?

Justin, The cooling may be somewhat better, but, with the CrazyCool backplate it seems some modification is necessary for most after market coolers. As to the 3rd PCI slot, I can't really think what I would use it for? And anyway, who needs four ethernet ports? By the way, I just checked...

Where Are The Gigabyte GA-N680SLI-DQ6 Motherboards?

I have followed this thread from the beginning, eagerly anticipating Gary's review. It appears that Gigabyte's 680i offering is not much different from all the others (except for the backup BIOS and four Ethernet ports). I am not particularly impressed with this board, so I bought a Striker...

We all know how this works: Supply and demand. Wait a couple of months and the price will drop. I personally am waiting on nVidia G9x and Intel 45nm.

Only $329.00! I agree with Fallen; it was originally up on ZZF for $249, now it's $309 (but not in stock).

Where Are The Gigabyte GA-N680SLI-DQ6 Motherboards?

From what I hear, the Striker has stability problems. I really would like to see the GA-N680SLI-DQ6 released so the various review sites can evaluate it. I have been holding off for a couple of months on my new build in anticipation of a really killer mobo. I have always liked Gigabyte, I hope...

SATA power connector crimp-on terminal

Galvanized, Yeah, saw them on Jab-Tech, but I am having trouble with their checkout for some reason. We've been trading emails for the past couple of days. Hopefully I'll be able to get them there, as nowhere else seems to have them on the entire Internet!

CAT 5 Cable ?

I have had some experience with making lan cables, and let me tell you, it ain't no fun! By the time you buy the cable, RJ45 connectors, crimper and figure in what your time is worth, you might be better off buying premade cables. You can find cables up to 100 feet (you did say you only need to...

Fan controller?

Thanks for the info. I was hoping to find an integrated contoller/monitor, anyone else have any suggestions? Googleing isn't much help, so I am relying on input from those of you who have much more experience than I. Perhaps someone knows where I could get a custom made unit?

Thanks for the links. It looks like the DigiDoc is only a monitor and the Zalman is only a controller, i guess I could use both.
