They said they only charged $50, but did they sell you all the parts at full retail? If so, they made a bunch more money on the parts. When we build our PCs we get the parts at reduced prices from mail order places like Newegg. I think you could have built that same system for about $2000...

It isn't hard but it may take an hour or two. I guess they didn't want to spend the extra hour or two to make it look nicer. To make the front side less cluttered you will need to run the wires like in the link below behind the motherboard tray...

What was the point of them using a P182 case if they don't want to use the cable management aspects of the case? That is terrible that they would do such a sloppy job and then take your $3K. Show them this is how they should have done it...

It comes with a lot of features. Very good P35 board... http://www.gigabyte.us/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2589

They are vents to allow air in to the case for cooling.

Looking for a mouse? We found a dead mouse in a PC once. He chewed some wires. But it wasn't because the side was left off. It was because we left a PCI slot cover off.

I downloaded the latest chipset driver from Gigabyte for my P35-DQ6 mobo (at least I think I did). I ran the file "infinst_autol.exe" thinking that it would update my chipset drivers. But it seems like it only installed a program (utility) that is used to update the chipset drivers. It is...

My Gigabyte 680i has 3 PCI-e slots. Two of course are for sli and they are x16. I've been told the third (x8) could be used for a physics card. So could this be used for a ATI graphics card also? Or do I need to get a graphics card that is simply PCI? Here is the mobo...

So how does this work? Is the video card that you have a PCI or PCI-e slot card? The mobo we have, has a 3rd PCI-e slot. Would the third video card go in there? Do you just load both the nvidia and ati video drivers? Do you need to do anything to keep any conflicts from occurring?

My son runs a Gigabyte 680i board with a Q6600 and a MSI 8800 ultra. I was thinking about getting him another ultra for Christmas. I think he could use it especially since he uses a 30 inch Dell at 2560X1600 and he games alot. But he also likes to use his 20 inch Dell for a second monitor for...

I like my P35-DQ6!
