Thanks Paul, Kyle, and everyone at [H] for 20 years of great reviews, news, and entertainment.

Don't forget the PIII 550-E as a good overclocker. I got a stable overclock on mine to 860 with an FSB bump.

I have an original Z Force and love it. However, the screen does scratch easily since Shattershield is a plastic top layer. I have a tempered glass protector to compansate. Other than that one problem, the phone's been outstanding! It's very fast and I can go two days without plugging it into...

I will say that the Z800 is definitely a great system to be a hypervisor. I love mine. You can start relatively small with it (a single E5540 and 16GB) and upgrade it for cheap (bought two x5650's for $150 on eBay). It cost me about $800 to outfit it. It's not a deep pizza box so I don't...

I've used Seasonic power supplies in all my builds after buying a X-650 for my gaming system. Since then I've purchased a S12II-350 for my VMware host, a Platinum 400 for my wife's system, and another Platinum 400 for my parent's system. The quality of the cables is top notch. I love the...

YGPM, coffee. Plz respond.

$39.99. But remember, it's just a bracket that cools the VRM and RAM and also allows you to mount one of their water cooling units. And yes, you will need a stock cooler because it does reuse the fan.

I'm sending Steve a DL360 G6, so I don't think he'll have any problems with another server. Don't forget to write the system and shipping off on your taxes. Also, send it UPS Freight. It's slower, but more cost effective. Steve, is there a specific name we can use on our taxes to write it...

Don't forget...I'm not a fan of PMs. And thanks for the in-thread feedback, Makeroflostsouls! Bump!

Been awhile since I bumped this...so BUMP. Possibly a taker on the last two 7950s, though. Everything else reduced price.

EVERYTHING SOLD!

[Constructive Criticism] It looks like the amount of thermal compound used for your tests is way too much. In the pictures posted in the article, it looks like a layer of cake batter which tells me it's too much. Correct application should result in a very thin (extremely thin) layer of...

Driver updates and driver stability were the two main reasons why I upgraded from an AMD 6850 to a nVidia GTX 660ti. Even though performance is roughly on par for the two (for me), I had quite a few crashes in my games with the AMD card. When I switched out to nVidia, all my games just worked...
