    Asus P8P67 M Pro

    I've got one as well paired with a 2500k and an 8GB Crucial kit. It's running with a 46 multiplier stable so far though I've left the voltage on whatever Asus' auto settings are and hope to play with it more over the weekend to get that dialed in. So far the board has been great. Gaidin

    ECS H55 Mini ITX

    I recently got this board paired with an i3-530 and the A-Data 2x2GB DDR1333 kit but still need to figure out what video card to purchase. For now it's using onboard. It only supports LGA1156 CPUs up to 87W TDP which *excludes* the standard i5-750/8XX series quad cores. It'll be interesting to...

    i5 cooler options?

    Scythe announced that a good number of their coolers already support socket1156 here. I'm using the Ninja2 with a different fan. Other than having a hard time getting the push pins pressed down enough (same exact push pins as the Intel retail cooler) due to the size of the cooler it's been...

    Any OC'd i5's out there yet?

    For the cooler I'm using the Scythe Ninja 2 with the Scythe S-Flex SFF21F (Sony fluid bearing things). The default fan that comes with the ninja2 is great for a non-overclocked system but it can't push enough air to effectively use the cooler. There may be better fans now but back in 2007 AT...

    My new setup is: i5-750 Gigabyte P55-UD3R A-Data cheap 4GB DDR3 13333 Scythe Ninja2 Right now I'm testing leaving turbo mode enabled as that seems like a good thing to leave on however I'm running into a few odd issues with it. It's currently running prime95 at 175Mhz BCLK at a 21x...

    MoGo Dapter - World's Smallest Bluetooth USB stick!

    That one does look tiny. I've been eyeing the Cirago bta-3210 which is also hardly larger than a USB connector. Newegg doesn't have it yet but geeks.com and xpcgear do. Gaidin

    750GB Seagate FreeAgent Pro - $199 @ BestBuy

    This is a good deal. 5 year warranty and the bare drive is around $235 so you're saving a good amount. Funny thing is the internal drive was near this one on the shelf and was marked at $282 for the same capacity/warranty... Gaidin

    Upgrading hard drive in a DELL 700m

    I had upgraded my old 700m to a 60GB 7200 rpm ide drive without any issues. Just be gentle wiggling the adapter off the drive. I recall there maybe was one screw you needed to unscrew and then the drive sort of swung upward where you could more easily remove it from the connector. Gaidin

    SFF fanless RAID box

    Have you looked at and discarded devices like the Linksys NSLU2? It's not RAID, but it can take 2 usb2 drives (could be fanless 2.5" enclosures if you don't need a ton of disk space) and is probably fast enough for most home uses. For a home built fully enclosed RAID system that's cheap, you...

    dslr folks question about exposure compensation and raw

    I believe you are correct. All the exposure compensation seems to do is adjust the exposure time (or aperture) up or down depending on how you have it set. If I understand you correctly by setting the exposure compensation one way or the other will just shift your overall range in post...

    Universal Laptop power supply high power 120 watt $20.99 at geeks.com

    Mine came today. It arrived with tips M5, N2, M1, N4. It's hard to tell which tips are supposed to be included from Kensington's site. It does not have the zippered pouch to carry everything in it but that is a small concession for ~$80 off new retail prices. The tips in the pic on geeks.com do...

    Ghosting problems

    Universal Laptop power supply high power 120 watt $20.99 at geeks.com

    Thank you for the post OP! I've been wanting to pick up this adapter for a while but felt the new versions at newegg and everywhere else are overpriced ($106 at newegg, $140 at compusa). The tip packs for whatever you need seem to run about $10 (ie if you have a newer Dell you need tip N19...

    Why does a vmware of linux not send traffic with zone alarm on the phyical machine?

    If the vmware nic is set to bridged mode you will receive an IP address from your home router's DHCP server. In this mode traffic is not routed through your physical machine's IP. If the vmware nic is set to NAT you receive an IP address from the DHCP server vmware runs for you and all the VM's...

    Low-Power RAID5 Fileserver

    Heya, You've got a number of options to build a home NAS with RAID5. If you are going to build a storage box I'd recommend dedicating that box to doing storage. You aren't going to like listening to 4-8 drives spinning in any enclosure while you're trying to watch a movie with it in the same...

    Young Micro USB 2.0 to SATA Drive Adapter $25 at PC Micro

    The one from pcmicrostore.com is great. The version linked has a power supply with both standard molex and sata power connector ends with power switches inline. The other ones either only give you one type or require you to carry around an additional power adapter/converter. This lets you safely...

    Anyone Seen or Heard of a Laptop w/External SATA Port?

    I bought a cheap pcmcia SATA adapter similar to this one Here Newegg has a bunch of them including expresscard ones. Most (all?) of them seem to be the normal sata ports rather than the real esata ones but you can just buy an adapter cable I believe if your external drive has an esata port...

    Network Monitoring Software

    ISA is only included in the Premium version of SBS. I'd try and monitor for something like bitorrent or other p2p traffic that opens up a ton of sessions. That can choke some of the home routers. Unfortunately in most of their web interfaces I don't think there's a way to track the active...

    Windows Server 2003 vs. Windows XP

    Well, The server versions of Windows are optimized for running services rather than single applications but I'm sure with some tweaking you could get 2003 to act very much like XP. I wouldn't bother if you've got XP working well now as there's probably the potential for more game related driver...

    To 3DES or not to 3DES?

    I was wrong on 3DES being easily crackable. I was mainly thinking that AES was designed to replace the DES standard in general including 3DES but it looks like it was designed to replace just DES and coexist with 3DES for some time still with the intention of eventually migrating to AES. This...

    To 3DES or not to 3DES?

    All vpns add some sort of delay when it comes to processing encrypted data at the endpoints. I don't think you are going to see any noticeable difference between DES and 3DES unless you have some really low end hardware on your low bandwidth link. The only way to know for sure is test it with...

    Which Micro-ATX motherboard?

    I would suggest taking a look at the MSI K8NGM2-FID. Yes this is for Athlon64 CPUs rather than the Intel ones however it has everything onboard that you will likely need including DVI, vga, svideo, and component outputs. With 1 hard drive, an A64 3200, 1GB DDR400, 1 80GB sata drive, cool n'quiet...

    MSI K8NGM2-FID or nForce 6150 memory question

    The BIOS has selectable memory ratios so you can run your memory at 100, 133, 166, and 200 Mhz (double it to get the DDR speed). While testing/overclocking I just set mine to 100 (1/2 basically) and it ran fine. I am using DDR400 sticks in the box though but the motherboard manual...

    Why would I * Not * get the Asus A8N-VM-CSM instead of the A8N-E?

    Well, yesterday I finally got my RMA'd cpu back. AMD was apparently out of stock on 3000+ so they waited a while and sent me a new 3500+. :) I swapped that in to another machine and put a 3200 into the MSI board. The board has the 3.0 bios for now. I've put everything into one of the Aspire...

    riad 5 on board

    Some of the DFI and Asus boards using the NF4-SLI chipset at newegg list RAID5 as supported by the onboard sata controller. Many of the more "deluxe" models add 4 more sata ports bringing the total onboard to 8 however I believe all of them are using the sil3114 controller which is attached off...

    Fortron PSUs loud? Fan swap?

    In general, the FSP PSUs I've used range from the average to quiet end of the spectrum. The FSP Group makes PSUs for a large number of other companies who then rebrand them. I'd suggest looking at SPCR's reviews of the FSP400-60GLN which is a 400W active PFC/efficient but still quiet fan...

    NF4Ultra vs. 6150???

    This works for sure with the Asus a8n-vm csm as long as you aren't using the initial BIOS release. From the other thread (or the hardocp threads) I believe the MSI had broken CnQ with its initial BIOS release but that has been fixed as well. Gaidin Edit: If AMD ever gets me my RMA'd CPU...

    Anyone try a RAID card on a 6150 board?

    I've tried it with a probably functional Promise supertrak ex8350 in the pcie x16 slot and the thing just reboots itself over and over. I've heard of people using the newer PCIe raid cards in the x16 slots successfully on some boards including Asus ones. Search through the forums at...

    I never used a proxy server and was thinking....

    Read up on the papers describing the program's operation on Tor's site. Effectively you gain some amount of privacy due to the fact that every packet gets encrypted once per node you travel through. Each node only knows it's ssl key and the previous/next hop (from what I remember). Only the...

    Umm, Tor and Privoxy make a slow (usually), encrypted, about as anonymous as possible internet experience. Your traffic hops through at least 3 nodes that only know their immediate neighbors. Sponsored by both the EFF and the DoD. :) The EFF's Tor site has some really good, easy to set up...

    Why would I * Not * get the Asus A8N-VM-CSM instead of the A8N-E?

    Heya, I'm still waiting on my RMA'd processor from AMD so no comments on the MSI board yet. The southbridge on the Asus does get warm and concerned me a bit at first. The blue zalman northbridge heatsink probably could fit but it will block access to some of the expansion slots. I think it was...
