    Ultra X-Finity 600W, $40 off, no rebate needed!!!

    Trying to decide between this and the Newegg Antec TP2 550w PSU. I need a PSU for a file server, so something with tons of 4pin and sata power headers. The Antec has a rebate but works out cheaper when you factor shipping.

    Software RAID setup

    I'm going to pick up the Lian Li V2000. I'm still not sure what kind of RAID I'm going to implement yet though. Anyone have feedback on the XFX Revo64 cards? They're cheap, PCI, and the only reliable review I can find on them says the biggest issue is throughput, something that I don't care...

    Software RAID setup

    Why is software RAID through Windows horrible? I've never done it before, and the point for posting this is to figure out the pitfalls of my plan. I really like those hot swappable drive cages, but can I fit one in an Antec 1040? This case uses drive rails. Part of what I'm trying to figure...

    Software RAID setup

    Technically, I wouldn't be using onboard RAID for this, it would all be software. I would just connect the drives and format them as dynamic disk and let Windows manage them. I'm thinking I'll buy 5 300GB drives (I've already got one PATA and two SATA on the way) for the RAID5 array, and then...

    Software RAID setup

    I'm more concerned with protecting my data, but doing it effeciently. Right now, I'd have to buy a TB of drives to backup my current data. If I go RAID5, I'd be able to use that TB as storage and only lose a few hundred GB. Plus, if a drive ever fails, I'd just need to throw in a spare and have...

    Software RAID setup

    Hey all, I'm just looking for some critique on a home file server I want to implement. Currently, I've got six IDE drives, ranging from 160GB to 400GB, in an Antec 1040 case, but I need to backup all of these drives. I'd also like to implement RAID5 since it would cost the least. I realize that...

    Fried PSU -- what next?

    I switched out just about everything; turns out my opteron died. I had a 3200+ I was waiting to ebay so I'll pop that in for the time being. Thanks for the suggestions, all.

    Fried PSU -- what next?

    But the motherboard light goes on when I plug in the new PSU? I don't think it would do that if it were fried. Edit: What makes you think it wasn't the PSU that fried? Also, can anyone suggest what might have caused this?

    Fried PSU -- what next?

    So I tried installing OSX x86 on my PC and it just shut down after the first couple introduction screens.. I didn't think anything of it and left it alone until the next day. When I powered it on, nothing happened. So I thought I might have blown a port on my surge protector or something like...

    Warm - Corsair XMS 2x1GB for $157 @ Newegg

    I currently have 1GB of RAM at 237Mhz at 3-4-3-8, and I'm looking to get a 2GB kit to replace it.. should I get these and run them at 2-2-2-5, and drop the RAM divider so it runs closer to 200Mhz, or should I go for high bandwidth RAM to make up for the lower latency? Anyone have any suggestions?

    AMD Opteron 144 s939 OEM CPU $130.75*Now $150 :(* @ Monarch!

    I totally lucked out.. Monarch posted a $30 off coupon for an Opteron 165 on the Hard forums, only the coupon worked on everything. Most people placed orders for random items around $40, but I bought an opteron 144 and the Asrock board, and my order went through! $180 for an opteron 144 and an...

    eVGA e-Geforce 7300 GS PCI Express 256MB DDR2 Video Card

    I think this supports PureVideo, in which case it's pretty hot for HTPCs.

    MSI 7800GT Lite $348 AR

    One of the Windows Vista devs said that video RAM will be increasinly important, with 128 being minimum for Vista and 256 or 512 preferred. Important to consider if you're planning on plunking down $300+ for a videocard, even if Vista is over a year away.

    EVGA 7800gt/sli mobo combo deal w/free BF2 $448.50!!!! AR

    Deal is still alive, sort of. It's $100 more than the title but still a very good deal. You can find it here. Edit: D'oh. My link goes to the GTX, hence the price difference.

    Best setup for $800-$900

    I know that Battlefield 1942 and Vietnam run smoother with a gig of RAM.. Games will take advantage of it, if not right away, then eventually so I'd say go ahead and spring for it. The transition to DDR2 is still a year away.

    $45 off $300 on Digital Camera Purchase & $25 off $300 on all other S&P purchase @ Dell Home (Exp: 04/30)

    Anyone know if the $25 off $300 coupons on eBay are stackable on top of the other coupons or will Dell limit it to two coupons?

    Buffalo PC3200 512MB Winbond Newegg- $89.50 shipped

    Just a headsup, I think this is a board specific problem but my Abit IC7 doesn't work with the Kingston HyperX, even at rated speed. It's unstable and applications will start to randomly crash. I didn't try playing with voltage though because I'd just as well return it and get something that...

    ON FIRE: 1Gb Kingston Hyper x PC3200 176.00

    I tried this on my Abit IC7 and can't get it run stably at default SPD settings. Apparently, a co-worker with the same board has had issues as well but people appear to get it working with 875P boards so it might just be the IC7. Regardless, I'm probably going to call today or tomorrow and...

    ON FIRE: 1Gb Kingston Hyper x PC3200 176.00

    I ordered this last week, they tried to deliver on Friday. Hoping it's waiting for me when I go home today. Hoping it's a noticeable upgrade from the PNY with Samsung chips I currently have.. Got 512MB for $80AR. PC2100 with PC2700 chips and it's been running at 407MHz rock solid. Still, it'll...

    Free guinness keychain bottle opener(us only)

    The last time I did this, they signed me up for their e-mail list and ran out of bottle openers so they just sent me a stupid guinness bottle keychain. Not worth it.

    *** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

    Is anyone familiar with ABIT's RMA process? The stock Northbridge fan on my IC7 is dying and making loud noises so I'm looking to get it replaced. I was hoping ABIT would just send me a new one rather than me having to send it back to them since the board is only six months old but they...

    GoGamer 48 hour madness - Call of Duty $32.90 + shipping

    The gamespy stats say that BF1942 is the second most played game online, behind HL and its mods. Enemy Territory is a close second though. Frankly, I don't like either but I find BF1942 less annoying but more buggy. Anyway, if you're looking for something else to try online, you owe it to...

    Radeon 9800 np at Circuit City for $249.99 + free shipping (no rebates)

    I don't think you're going to have much luck getting Samsung chips. I think this current batch is all Infineon. Everyone that got in on the last BB thread and Newegg NP deals got Infineon and so is the one I got from CC. I could be wrong though.

    Radeon 9800 np at Circuit City for $249.99 + free shipping (no rebates)

    Mine didn't, I don't believe any 9800s or 9800 Pros that aren't bought from Best Buy do. As in, buy this from your local Best Buy if they have any in stock and you'll get a coupon but not from Circuit City.

    Radeon 9800 np at Circuit City for $249.99 + free shipping (no rebates)

    I just picked up one of these on Saturday at the Union Square, NY CC. I have copies of the old ATI HL2 webpage offer printed out so I'm hoping they honor it. $250 for HL2 and a 9800 is a quality deal.

    HOT!!!...for ...NEW RADEON OWNERS.. (any model except 9600np) get HL2 FREE!

    Yep. Found the old links in google cache. Let's hope they honor their old page though. It looks like they'll only mail you the CD for $10 though and not a coupon to download through Steam, which is what I'd prefer. Oh well.

    HOT!!!...for ...NEW RADEON OWNERS.. (any model except 9600np) get HL2 FREE!

    Anyone have the coupon link? I just picked up a Radeon 9800 from Circuit City for $250 and I'm hoping I can get the free HL2, even though the box didn't include the HL2 sticker on it. Any help would be appreciated.

    Sapphire 9800 pro 128mb $301

    For some reason, I always thought the Sapphire 9800 Pro OEM cards were clocked lower than the retail ATI ones. I could be wrong, I can't find a link to back my statement up.

    PC: Max Payne 2 - $29.99 A/C Starting 10/19

    I'm not sure if it was only valid on pre-orders or if it's still valid but EB was supposed to be giving a $20GC mail-in when you purchased MP2. If they still are, you can go in there and possibly get them to pricematch BB to $34.99 and then get the $20GC. YMMV on the pricematch, I can usually...

    My 1st post - Micro Center SMC Wireless G Router $69.00 and more

    Good deal, but does anyone know what's up with 802.11i, the wireless security standard? I remember hearing that most wireless routers would be upgradeable but I also heard that the first routers would be available over the summer. Did it die or change into something else or just turn out to be...

    Nearly Hot! Radeon 9800 128 mb $249.99 after MIR at Best Buy

    I can't find a single 9800 non-pro review on any of the major sites. Heck, I can't find any period. Anyone know exactly how well this card stacks up to an R9800 Pro?

    Nice, thanks! I was wondering when the FX 5900 Ultras were going to be available. I'm still not touching it at that price though. Were there any decent videogame deals?
