    ATI TV Wonder HD 600 PCI & HD 650 Combo USB

    It does come with a remote, I just didn't post a picture of it. From the review: "The ATI TV Wonder 650 Combo USB package includes the tuner box, USB cable and power cable, FM antenna cable, and an infrared remote and USB receiver. The infrared remote receiver is identical to the one included...

    ATI TV Wonder HD 600 PCI & HD 650 Combo USB

    DSperber, I'm afraid that the view you're asking for may no longer be available in the current version of the software, and in any case, I wouldn't recall how to access this view even if it were possible. It's certain that I was using an older version of the software for my original review...

    SteelSeries Ikari Laser Mouse

    I have no experience with the G9, and almost none with the DeathAdder. However, if past experience with Razer and Logitech products count for anything, I'd say that the Ikari Laser wins out in terms of useful features. The DeathAdder and Ikair have a similar feel, and I think both are...

    Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus 500 External Hard Drive

    Exactly. The drive functions like any other usb storage device. The drivers enable features like automatic backups and the encrypted folder.

    Just ordered the 2408WFP...

    That is a good point - I have a 2x4 wedged under the main portion of the desk, and a shimmed 1x6 on top of that holding up the monitor shelf. It's been working well for nearly two years.

    SteelSeries 3H and 4H Headsets

    Hey Rob, I can send you the Cyborg headeset I've got here. My experience thus far has been fantastic, and come on, it's a $75 set of 5.1 surrond-sound headphones - it must be great, right? [/sarcasm] It even lights up red on one cup and green on the other. Seriously.

    Saitek Cyborg Command Unit

    Yes, I've seen it in stores, and the tactile response is MUCH better than the Cyborg Command Unit. However, I have never been a fan of Razer's driver software - so you have an excellent point. It would be interesting to see if the Belkin unit has the software to back up it's build quality.

    Just ordered the 2408WFP...

    I'm definitely looking forward to your review, Rob. Although, I'm still pretty happy with my $140 Sony FW900. :p

    Saitek Cyborg Command Unit

    Wow, it does appear that there are at least two version of this thing, which I was not aware of. Thanks for that bit of info. As for the sticky keys, that was my main problem with the unit. The general cheapness of the keys' conctruction results in poor key action, including such problems...

    Realtemp

    Wow. If these temps are right, it looks like I've got another ~1.3V of headroom!! j/k

    Upgrade ideas....

    I say go for a cheap 8800GT - you can find them for ~$160 these days, and a decent 680i or 650i board for less than that. But considering the timing, I admit that it might be more financially responsible to wait.

    Help Me! (Need New PSU Maybe)

    If you're on a budget, I'd heartily suggest any of Corsair's units. 650TX 750TX The ol' 620HX might work too - IIRC, it has a single 12v rail.

    Thanks for enabling my laziness, Rob. :)

    Any chance at a comparison between the 9800GTX and 8800GTX at high res?

    SteelSeries Ikari Laser Mouse

    That reminds me, Greg: *obscure joke spoilers warning* For those of you not familiar with Ikari Warriors, here's a link to the complete introduction to the second installment, Victory Road. It's brutal to sit through. Also, for those of you who may be google-impaired, 'Ikari' is a Japanese...

    SteelSeries Ikari Laser Mouse

    I'm glad I downloaded the software for both the laser and optical versions - while they're both called Ikari, the differences are much more than simply laser/optical.

    What to do will all that Hardware from the last build?

    I wouldn't reuse old AGP GPU coolers on anything important. Apart from being generally noisy as hell (especially once the dust settles in) you also have to ask yourself how much of the MTBF has already passed. Most motherboards are already equipped with NB/SB coolers; if you'd prefer to swap...

    Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard

    Well, since the keypads are identical on the G11 and original G15, I'd say that the noise levels would be identical between the two. However, the newer (rev2) G15 is quieter. I stopped by Dubrovnik last August on my honeymoon and had an awesome time.

    9800gx2 performance.

    Not with that block it wouldn't. Hopefully EK or DD will get it right soon.
