Yeap. You don't know how cheap people can get these days. LOL!!! I've seen things as small as a cap being rip off. Also, just because it isn't open, doesn't mean it isn't open. Why do you think they sell shrink wrap for????? LOL!!!!! One time, I was in line to return a cdrom and the guy...

This is something I never understood. Why create a new user account that wiill have Administrator's privileges when you should just be able to log in with the Administrator account? I understand it's one more road block for hackers to figure out the new administrator account name, but why...

I don't understand why new m/b coming out today are still populate with USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 are backward compatible? Why not just put USB 3.0 everywhere on the m/b instead of having a mix of 2.0 and 3.0 ports? The only reason why I'm guessing they still put USB 2.0 is because the USB 3.0...

Thanks! Reading up on Tomato and DD-WRT now.

Anyone know of any wired/wireless router that has a WOL feature? What I want to be able to do is turn off all my computers. When I need access to it, I log into the router and tell it to wake up computer X and log into it via RDP. When done, I power off the computer or it shuts...

Thanks! Searching for mini molex returns so much results, but after a few more researching, I found it. It's a EH Connector http://www.jst-mfg.com/product/pdf/eng/eEH.pdf

The white connector on the top. I searched google images and it's not the mico JST, nano JST, or PH connector. Went to Fry's and they didn't have it either. I was trying to build my own cables and need the connector that connects to the one on this picoPSU. Thanks!

Anyone know what the 2-pin connector that is right next to the white wire used for? I don't have a volt meter so I can't measure the voltage and amp coming off from each pin.

The motherboard has the 2x2 for P4-12V, but the PSU does not. I'm trying to see if I can avoid buying a 2x2 to a 4-pin molex for the P4-12V connector on the motherboard.

I'm building a new system using the Intel D525 Atom processor and was wondering how do you determine if you need the ATX12V P4 connector connected or not? The motherboard, Intel D525MW, has the 4-pin connector, but not sure if the Atom processor really needs the extra 4-pin for power since it...

I was also looking at the M350, but decided against it because of the following reasons: 1. 2.5" HDD cost more then 3.5" HDD 2. The ITX motherboard I was getting is passive cooling and has a big heat sink. Therefore, it will only allow for one 2.5" HDD. Whether I can install a 3.5" HDD by...

I am planning to purchase a picoPSU DC-DC like this one: http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-80 which is rated at 80W with a 12V input. Q1. Is it safe to connect a 12V 5A(60W) AC-DC power brick to this even though the DC-DC is HIGHER? Q2. Is it safe to connect a 12V 8.5A(102W) AC-DC power...

If the ITX motherboard is equipped w/ an ION graphics, how much wattage does that alone draw and what's the PSU capacity I need to jump to now w/ an ION graphic chipset? Thanks!

I'm trying to determine the maximum wattage I need on a PSU for the following hardware: Gigabyte GA-D525TUD or an ASRock A330ION 1 x 2.5" Seagate Momentus 5400RPM 1 x 3.5" WD Green 2TB 5400RPM 1 x Wireless N USB Adapter 1 x USB 2.5" HDD I check some of the PSU calculators and they say...
