On another forum, lol. It's a local deal, no shipping. I just have to wait until Wed to get it.

I just bought the ASUS P5N-D (750i chipset) and I will be getting a E8400 in the next 4-5 days. Can't wait to start tossing the dirt on this nightmare AMD rig...

To be honest, this cooler will not do any better than that air setup. The PURE is more for silence. If you don't want to hear it, the PURE will be better. If you don't care about sound, get a 75CFM fan on that Noctua and it will cool better. BUT, the Pure will keep it under 65C even up to...

If you ask me, the 9800GX2 will hardly be worth the trouble and money to step up to from that card. You will be lucky to see decent drivers any time soon and since they never got Quad 7950GX2 SLI to work I doubt that will change also. Dual GPU solutions tend to be more trouble than their...

The read 120MM fan opening wil be hardly if at all blocked by the pure. It will push air through it nearly as effectively as if there were just a fan there. You will still get entire system cooling.

I would have to say it will cool that system fine. 2.7Ghz is not much of an overclock, and as you saw with my testing results, 3GHz was running 65C or so which is well withing the acceptable temperature range. I would expect you to get the same or maybe even slightly lower temps with the PURE.

It does use a 120MM fan. It would be nearly impossible to make it any quieter. In fact, adding a more powerful high CFM fan to it would probably make it more effective. As for efficient, this cooler is not geared towards overclocking, especially with a Quad core. This cooler is perfect for...

I thought it was more like 50Gigs

The Toshiba HD-DVD BetaMAX!!!!!!!!!! I personally didn't care who won, I am just glad someone did and now they can get to the price drops.

Download Seatools and do a full fresh clean format of the drive in DOS. Then Vista should see it fine. If Vista can not be made to see it it is defective. Vista is great for recognizing drives while setting up, far superior to XP.

A change of motherboard killed my XP64 evaluation install so I had to go back to Vista 64. Installed flawlessly on my current system. Gotta love it..

CPU price doesn't bothe me much, but the board price is too high. If you ask me, most if not all high end boards are drastically overpriced. I fail to see where the cost to build them is the reason for these crazy prices. Don't get me wrong, I love buying things that are too expensive too...

64 bit is kinda a pain, but I would not get anything else anymore myself. My gamer is XP64 or Vista Ultimate 64, depending on which I format with that week. My wife's PC is XP 64 and the PC I am using now, which is gonna be my file server, is Fedora 64. I just wish stupid adobe flash would...

I think it is Paypal that is keeping Ebay at the forefront. For some reason, people like Paypal. I find it expensive to use and it is the other reason my Ebay sales are pretty much done. Google should pick it up soon but Ebay just has the name recognition going for it and the devil's child...

craiglist is ok for some stuff. I sell on some of hte big forums as well. Honestly, there is no good alternative right now. I keep hoping a new auction site will start and take off, but ebay is quite effective at pushing them out so far. Too many morons content to pay all the paypal fees and...

As a long time seller, I watched ebay slowly creep down. Now they just suck. I hate selling and taking paypal since it is just double dipping. Not really worth the aggrivation anymore. I advise anyone to just give up on them since you get ripped off selling, badly.

No, it wouldn't fit in that case. You need a straight shot from the 120MM fan opening in a traditional case. You seem to not really understand what acceptable temperatures are for a processor. Considering it was nearly silent AND running almost 3.7GHz I was beyond impressed with my results...

I don't know, if you ask me, we should be doing the full fresh format for any new OS. I was not having any luck with ANY OS on my PC and it came down to the fact my motherboard crapped out. Kinda weird the way it did, but oh well. Gave me a chance to try 64 bit XP and it is alot better than...

HAHA! I am just so surprised it gave me so much grief on a setup that I was sure it would run flawlessly. Of course, doing an install at midnight on a day which you feel like death warmed over isn't the best idea.

I was not convinced at all there were any issues with Vista since my last 10+ installs all went flawlessly. Last night was just pure hell. Having to reinstall yet again today with XP was just another headache I did not need. Oh well, atleast it's up and running!
