    areca ARC-1231ML-2G with P5Q Deluxe

    yes, it will work, and I would hook it up to a pcie x8 minimum, pci x16 will work (as previous poster noted, if it is a full x16 then you are fine. it should still work at x4 but with such a nice card, I don't think you want to limit the bandwidth. so... hook it up to the full bandwidth slot)

    Should I return my E8400?

    the cpu will not be damaged by getting too hot, but if you overvolted it that's a different story.

    Cooling 2 EVGA GTX 295's????

    even if they did, you're not anywhere close to needing more than 1200W. but just because you have "enough watts" does not mean you have a quality psu, nor does it mean your psu is in perfect working condition. if your system was using 1200W, that is about the same as a toaster oven. so...

    Best Earbuds

    I'm still listening. By the way I don't really know where to buy. Amazon would be fine. Newegg seems limited in choices. The philips ones at target look good for the gym... I do appreciate sound quality but maybe shure's are not the best for the gym.

    Core i7 GTX 260+ SLI Power supply recomendation

    Building a new computer soon

    with your budget you should be getting 2 video cards especially for gaming on a 24" screen. my pick would be 2x GTX285's. for a few more bucks you could grab an 850W corsair... not that you'd need it particularly, but it isn't going to hurt to have more headroom.

    EVE!

    my tip to starting out in eve is ... don't play. just train up your learning skills, and electronics to V, engineering to V, and some other essential skills. then the fun begins. just my opinion. the game seriously sucks for noobs. in the meantime, play some other game you enjoy...

    Local Pc store sales keep recommending Zalman

    Zalmans had their moment. At one time around the socket 478 to lga775 transition zalmans were one of the best, if not the best performing out there IIRC. My guess is those PC "experts" have gotten complacent that they know what's best... maybe they had good knowledge at one point but just...

    12v rail stress question.

    If a "rail" on your PSU goes over current, the system should shut down or reboot. If that hasn't happened yet you should be fine. Fans don't draw too much current.

    LED's

    LEDs are by definition DIODES which by definition do not obey Ohm's Law of V=IR. Diodes exhibit non-linear "resistance." A lot of people run them in series for makeshift projects or just stringing a few LEDs together, because LEDs are fairly forgiving as long as you are over the...

    Vista x64 RAID setup

    it's nice backing up to an external HDD. There are always occasional stories about power surges or PSU failures taking down "all the internal HDDs in my computer at once" while external HDDs should have their own power supply which you should hook up to a surge protector to prevent such a...

    Nehalem's official name: "Core i7"

    It's obvious. The letter "i" is cute. It is harmless. It is a nice little letter you could bring home to your parents. It can stand for "Intel." Or just "I," as in: "I have a kick ass new CPU." It's not EXTREME or ADULT-ONLY like the letter "X". Just the sheer magnitude of this...

    Building My Affordable Dream System

    There is no overkill. There is only price to performance ratio ;) ... this system is going to be rather high. Even 4 GPUs doesn't break (or barely breaks) the 700W mark... so 3 GPUs will be more than fine with 850W. See for yourself. http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3520&p=11...

    i7 920 or GTX 260 SLI

    SLI will get you more frames per second. I would go there first and worry about the i7 chips later when all the mobo/ddr3/cpu prices come down.
