Rob ... what did you end up doing? I am interested in 1 GB network as I routinely transfer 500 MB to a few GB files between machines. To augment this I am thinking about SSDs as the source & "sink" of the files. I haven't attempted to figure out or to see if there is any measure of the...

BUT it is out of stock == disappoint :rolleyes: Yes this i7-920 is the best system ever. It is the one I built in the old beige 10 y/o case (that was water cooled even then). I do get a lot of flak because it is not black. I have another identical case ready to go ... not black either. :o...

I did not know about the middle click bookmark ...:o ... I'll will start using that to see how it works for me. Shockwave Flash crashes here also. Since I almost always have other software working in the background, I have attributed the crashes to the combination. Perhaps not. Well, I did...

The last new build thread I started here led me (kudos to Rob for recommendation at the time) to a WC OC-ed i7-920. And, it is still smokin' hot at ~4.4 GHz. I have had interest in anudder system for several months. I have been very busy with work (self employed & thus reason why I can even...

Having become an accidental Chrome user late last year, I will add that I have no complaints. And, how else to evaluate software short of various benchmarks? Which for a browser comes down to speed of loading web pages ... which I never trusted given the statistical variance of the speed of the...

Nice evaluation. I need a new additional system & maybe this the way to go. I use some very serious multi-threaded commercial software but certain aspects of it are single threaded ... and both could greatly benefit from the fastest possible clocks. My stuff runs for hours so every ten percent...

I wonder if this can cause HD time outs when transferring very large files between computers in a LAN across a router.

I played snipes on a Novell network built up of IBM PS2s.

@ Optix ... wow, so I feel so un-whiney now. Glad you are all ok.

Since we are having a wining party (intentional bad pun), I just replaced a motherboard and then a PSU to still get NOTHING!?!?! I just received a cheap 775 CPU to throw that in ... sometime ... probably next given the interruptions:mad: in the next few days. bah humbug:rolleyes: Back to the...

mmmm, good point Optix. And damn computers anyway!

In your case to avoid further cat-tastropies, maybe sleep mode? Or would that be cat-nap?

I think I need to slow down ... a lot. I read that as $25 per bag of nuts.:(

I have not seen much here about virus issues. I believe that most of us "regulars" are smart enough to have an adequate prophylactic in place and just avoid *those* kind of web sites. However, since no man is an island, aka I do have female friends that have considerable inertia in their...

wow Ancient Greek Computer Gets Rebuilt Using Lego ... I am thinking about building just 1 of the gear boxes
