    Try the P8P67 PRO, 4x Sata 6gb ports. Oh and if that were the case, any chance you want a second 57xx card? lol

    $700-$800 first time build need suggestions

    It could be, it would give you the option and if you have it then why not OC it. Then the CPU would be good for many years, by the time you need a new CPU you will have gone through a couple GPUs.

    $700-$800 first time build need suggestions

    lol @ the hyper 212 being huge, that's funny, try a V6GT or a Mega in push/pull config, now THOSE are massively huge.

    $700-$800 first time build need suggestions

    I love the CM V6GT but its a bit more, typically around $50 or so. Works great on my 955BE, personally if you could wait and get a good deal on a sandy CPU/board you will never need to upgrade your CPU, because by the time you want to you would be just buying a new system. I love my 2600k, not...

    Intel's Sandy Bridge Revealed: Core i5-2500K & i7-2600K Reviewed

    I have an i7 2600k sitting here in my old case. I OCed it to 4.8Ghz under my megahalems and wow what a difference, at stock speeds with no turbo it was hitting 86C on stock cooling when maxed out. Now at 4.8Ghz @1.4v it only hits 66C on the hottest core and 60C on the coolest. Its awesome, thats...

    Fixing the Windows Floating Context Menu Item Problem

    weird.... AFAIK I have never had this problem.... Although my keyboard does seem to have a problem dropping letters sometimes but maybe its just me or maybe more likely interference. That seems much more likely due to the fact I have 2 wireless keyboards and a wireless router in the area as well...

    Need an affordable but decent psu.

    Personally I would not skimp on the PSU or if you do do what I did with my original, I needed about 500 watts but I got an 850 anyways because it was worth the peace of mind. Also the best thing to do is look up any PSU your looking at on Jonnyguru. He is the devil to all PSUs that land on his...

    Is this a reason for concern?

    It looks like its reading it wrong. on 05 Current and Worst are 100 meaning its perfect Threshold means if it drops to 36 or less your drive is over halfway out the door. 0A and C7 dunno for sure. C7 seems to be UltraDMA CRC Error Count - The count of errors in data transfer via the interface...

    Crashed iPad? Recover the Data for $1,000!

    Really? what could you have on an iPad that's so important? you have to sync it with your PC so why wouldn't it be there too??? EDIT: After reading I feel that people are boobs. I dont see the issue since the data had to COME from somewhere so it would still be there be it email, a PC, laptop etc.

    Motherboard Manufacturers Outline Solutions to 6-Series Chipset Flaw

    My board is rocking right now in Foldenstein, 66% into a SMP workunit soon to start a BigAdv till I get me my dang 1156 bracket for my Mega (so I can hit 4.8 at less than 1.38v :p).

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Linked to Russian Airport Bombing

Its pretty obvious whats real and whats not and what you should and shouldn't do. In which case if your...

    New Build: Help Me with a Name!

    I think I have a winner for the folding machine, and that would be Optix's suggestion of Foldenstein and I also like TCS's for my current set of parts, sounds pretty good. I will be making my final decision when I do the build/rebuild.
