OK, sorry I am taking too long to answer questions about this case. While I no longer have it in front of me, I feel I can still field these questions. 1. No problems for mine. Worked fine every shot and in fact too well when my kids would walk over and "press the pretty light". 2. You...

I'll be installing SP1 on my wife's PC as soon as it is released and then my PC if/when I get a replacement PSU and the rest of it is not fried......

You are not doing yourself any favors at all judging this card by the first set of benchmarks released. I am not impressed by this card as well, but I also know better than to judge it this fast.

All I can say is that for me, Vista has been relatively painless. Sure I've had issues, but they have been tolerable. It is so much easier to install than XP and it even auto-loads the proper drivers for you. I did not need to install 1 drive myself on my wife's machine. I am even further...

Well, I am starting to believe that this is the price I needed to pay for not having a single part failure for almost 2 years. Luckily, I managed to shut it down after the first signs of major trouble. I heard it "grunting" and arcing so I ripped the power cord out of the wall. I pulled it...

Vista is weak? I have had nothing but problems on my wife's PC with XP. specs: MSI K8N NEO4F/165Opteron/1GB ram/HD3450 video/500GB HD I installed Vista Premium 64 on this machine tonight and despite the low specs for running Vista, this PC has never run better. Seems like a major...

They are definitely the front runner for now. I just had a wonderful PSU exlosion and I am not sure if I will have enough of my PC left to need speakers, but if I do I believe I am going with those.

I have a Westinghouse 32" LCD TV and I love it.

I really want to build a personal home server with this OS. I tried in vain for 3 weeks to get a Linux home server setup and it is just far too difficult for a relatively new Linux user. I'm keeping my eye on this with the hopes of it being fixed by summertime.

Tigerdirect.ca is price gouging accordingly for $365.99 http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=3584440&sku=CP2-DUO-Q9300 The same CPU in the US is $299 from the same place...

I have to say the real reason I did not pick up a Phenom is the utter lack of motherboard choices. Initial batches are not supposed to clock any better than the current releases, but let's let the CPU's do the talking when retail samples hit the street.

Very nice! I will add for all those having "monitor envy" that that Samsung 245BW is a kickass budget 24" LCD. I have had some of the better 24" models and for half the cost this one is quite nice. It's no 2408 by a long shot, but the price is right.

They look worthy of the pricetag to me. I didn't notice if it was possible to use them without the intrusive software maybe?

Interesting read. To think I was one mouse click away from that OS about 2 months ago too.......

The GX2 is 2 PCB's facing each other. That is how they managed to keep it using only 2 slots.

Considering the cost, the GX2 BETTER beat the 3870X2. Far too overpriced for such a stop gap card. Even the GTX is a joke on paper.

OK, my Logitech Z680's are going into duty for my TV :( so I need opinions on a good 2.0/2.1 set of speakers. I am SOOOOO tempted to jump on the Z5500's on tigerDirect.ca for $290 shipped, but after my latest purchase of the QX9650, the budget is ultra tight. Here's my short list in order of...

I got an OEM on Ebay. There are 2 Canadian sellers with the proper feedback for this kind of purchase. Total price was actually $850 with full insurance and shipping. I was not happy doing it, but I wanted to buy something that would not be outdone in the next year. For me, Nehalem is going...

I am actually almost getting what I pay for!!! LOL!!!!

I gave up waiting and I bought a OEM QX9650 for $800. The rumors around overclocking problems with the midrange models scared me, and these prices listed here are definitely lower than what the retail sellers will mark them up to upon release. PS: Yes I know I am an idiot for buying the QX...
