    Help me build a virtualization box v. VMWare / ESXi

    If anyone could confirm if intel raid works in esxi, and if not suggest a raid 10 card? is it even required? wouldn't a super cheap card that does raid 1 and using two small ssds give way better performance anyway? edit: I guess something like a 64, 80, 100 or maybe ever 120 might not be...

    Help? 0% overclock with ASUS P8P67, 2500K and using Auto Overclock?

    Well, he is a "noob" and I thought this was a perfect way for him to do it himself. Many people have had it work just fine and there is a newegg/asus video showing just how easy it is. I'll walk him through that after work and post the cpu-z shots.

    Looking for a Core i7 or i5 uATX or mini-ITX board

    I agree, it does. 6x2GB is about $350 cdn 2x4GB is about $275 cdn, times 2 is $550, for 4 GB more RAM. The CPU and MB for the i5 solution are about $100 less, each, so it works out about the same, but you get 4GB extra. I certainly haven't landed on this as a final solution, because...

    Looking for a Core i7 or i5 uATX or mini-ITX board

    That board looks awesome - I will probably use that for another project - but, as I expected, the two ram slots make it unusable, I think. I will have to double check with some people but I think 8GB isn't enough for this project. That board plus a CUDA video card would make an amazing HTPC...

    Looking for a Core i7 or i5 uATX or mini-ITX board

    I am leaning towards the core i5 750 and 4x 4GB of ram for 16GB total, because it is a cheaper cpu and mb than the i7 920 solution, and the ram followed by the hdd i/o I think are the limiting factors. The core i5 750 cpu should be plenty quick enough for what I'm doing. And even if not, the i7...

    I hadn't looked at AMD because I have been out of touch with those since the s939/X2 days. A quick look at tom's hw charts show the core i5 750 around the same level as the AMD Phenom II X4 965 which looks like the top of the line cpu from AMD. I'm not opposed to an AMD based solution for sure...
