    APC BACK-UPS RS 15600 VA 230V

    I have a 1000watt PSU, E8500 OCed, 9800GX2 OCed, 5.1 speakers, and a 26" LCD I want to back-up. The PSU is a bit much for now, but I may add a second 9800GX2. Would the 1000va version be enough for that? I really don't care much about having a long run-time with no power. I just want to be...

    APC BACK-UPS RS 15600 VA 230V

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16842101101 I'm in Korea and this is available. Not much else is. Everything in this area is about 60% more expensive than in the US. So I really can't afford to go to a $400+ US model which will be easily $650+ here. My one question is about...

    Can't Format C

    sorted! Apparently you have to enable the keyboard in the bios so that it works in the pre-windows/pre-bios situations. So when I pressed any key to boot from the CD, it wasn't registering. Kind of a Doh! moment. First reinstall with this mobo so I didn't really think/know about it...

    Can't Format C

    I'll try that. For the record, I disbled the HDD in the BIOS from the boot priority. I don't think I disabled it altogether.

    Can't Format C

    Maybe I will have someone do it for me if I have to, but is there any other way to do it on this machine without messing with the hardware? Does it sound like the HDD has issues?

    Can't Format C

    I'm using a bootable genuine xp cd. I see the message to press anything to boot, but whether I press a key or not, it still boots into windows. I have a genuine XP CD now, but before he had a crack copy that got around activation by tricking the computer into thinking it was in safe mode...

    Can't Format C

    I'm trying to put a fresh Windows XP install on my friend's computer that he is having issues with. The problem is that no matter what I do, it always boots into windows. Even if I disable HDD as a boot device and put NO DISK in the drive, it will still boot into windows. If I put CDROM as...

    9800GX2, RPG games, and the CPU

    I just took the plunge and bought a E8500. Probably could have just OCed my E6700 but I've never done that before. I noticed a major difference in my min. FPS in the kinds of situations where they drop the most in NWN2: around water, lots of shadows, or in big parties and big fights. It...

    9800GX2, RPG games, and the CPU

    Anyone with experience in RPG online games? Can anyone tell me if CPU DOES matter or is t all GPU? BTW NWN2 definitely uses SLI. How hard will it be for a total newb to OC my E6700? Money isn't a huge issue for me, so I might prefer just getting an E8500 rather than delving into the OC...

    9800GX2, RPG games, and the CPU

    I have a 9800Gx2 and play mostly online RPGs like neverwinter nights. I have good Ram and a good GPU. But my CPU is just a stock E6700 @ 2.67 Ghz. I have heard that NWN2 (and other online MMORPGs) can be a CPU intensive game and that water effects, big parties, or massed battles versus...

    Need help with high CPU Temps

    If you look at the newegg comments, many have complained that the CF900 fan just won't spin high enough. And there are posts about it on other forums. I did find that at least for my gigabyte BIOS the setting PWC let it spin higher than AUTO. Do you think I need to replace my Antec...

    Need Intel Board for 9800Gx2

    Some intel boards don't seem to handle the PCI-E Express switch on the Gx2 cards well. Or maybe it is because the PCI-E in the P5W DH Deluxe might be 2x8 instead of the required 1x16. I just don't know. What I do know is that mine won't enable multi-GPU on the 9800Gx2 without issues. I...

    need mobo for 9800Gx2

    I could. But I'm throwing away a perfectly good asus p5w dh deluxe because it isn't compatible. Lots of intel boards aren't working great with the 9800Gx2. If I move to a nVidia board I might as well be capable of Quad SLI. BTW will I have heat issues with a 780i? I only run the 3...

    forcing 1x16 PCI-E Bus on P5W DH Deluxe

    I stupidly bought a 9800Gx2 thinking it would work with this motherboard. But the 975x chipset has a 2x8 PCI-E bus with dual GPUs. The 9800Gx2 requires a single 1x16 bus. The 975x chipset sets the bus to 2x8 mode if it detects two GPUs I believe - EVEN IF the two GPUs are on one slot. If...

    Should I replace my Antec P180

    what about if I upgrade to say dual R700s in 8-9 months? Will I ever need a full ATX ? I'll never really have multiple drives etc... Or be OCing or watercooling so maybe Mid size is enough... The P180 is quiet - will an extra fan add too much noise?
