I really don't care about high performance or heat spreaders. I just want RAM that works in the wife's Dell, and the cheaper the better. Looking to spend around $30 shipped. Preferably a name brand RAM, at least, with my favorite being G.SKILL.

I just want something that fits in my damn PC. I hadn't realized these had gotten so huge until my 3850 came in the mail several years ago. Actually had to downgrade to a 5550 GDDR5 to get back the 2 hard drive slots I lost to that behemoth. Looks like there's some 7770s that will fit just...

I was just thinking of buying a 1TB hard drive and seeing if I could get one for $40-$45, and then I check Newegg and the cheapest, crappiest one they have is $130. I really hope this levels off soon and the companies don't think, "Hey, let's just leave the prices really high like they did with...

I see several things I want, but I don't want to inherit a ton of anime and have a lot of doubles of things I already own just to get to those. Oh well..

That was way before I built PC's, save for my Pentium Pro 200MHz that I used for a good five years with less slowdown problems than some of my dual-core PCs. However, I did like this old article from anandtech reviewing the mighty Celeron 300A At under $200 there is no way you can go wrong with...

Was it ever determined if Ivy Bridge would support Z68? If not I may just settle with P67 for now. Frankly, I'm shocked that a chipset older than 6 months will work with a next subseries of Intel chips. I had a Pentium D board that wouldn't work with Core 2 Duo, then I had a Core 2 Duo board...

I remember the Pentium D 805 had a ridiculous overclock for its time. My E4300 wasn't much of a processor, but I did get it up from 1.86GHz to 3.1GHz stable, a LOT more than 50% gain. I think others were able to overclock it by 100%.

I may have the board bought for now, but this time I won't confirm until the money actually changes hands on Friday :p Thanks for the offers, all

Bump. Had a motherboard offer for $60 shipped, but the seller waited until just now to bail. I'll try and respond to the other offers received, but I'd like to stay in the $60-$70 shipped area.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817104069&cm_re=fsp_500-_-17-104-069-_-Product I have a FSP 500W power supply that I bought from newegg a few months ago, but never got around to using it. It is brand new, still shrinkwrapped. Newegg is currently selling it for $59.99 +...

My Gigabyte motherboard died several months ago after only 6 months of use, and I'm having a difficult time finding a decent motherboard that supports my DDR2-1066 RAM anymore since they all seem to have moved on to only supporting DDR3. I'm basically looking for a standard ATX with at least...

Bump, removed request for much older cards. I forgot I had an HD-DVD ROM, and X800 series cards claim they have HDCP, but they are bait and switch half-truths.

Bump, I have an offer for a 4670 at $50. If that can't be beat by Monday, I'll likely go with that. The cheaper your card, the better. If someone offers an X850 XT PE for $15 shipped, they win.

Closed. Bought a 5550. Thanks

I was going to upgrade a cheap PC to the Phenom X4 965, but that was until I saw that the new X6's work on some AM2 boards. Are there any reports of the Phenom II X6 working on the Dell F896N, a motherboard for the Inspiron 546?

Switching to FS tonight. Closing topic.

eBay (264) GameTZ (90) Heat (2, only because I just now started selling/buying on [H]) I have an Athlon II X4 620 at the moment for my wife. She is a video editor that uses Sony Vegas 8. I want to someday trade her up to a Phenom II X4 965 125W. I don't know if her motherboard can handle...

I had an HD3850 for a while, but could no longer stand it anymore because the thing was ****ing huge. It was 9.5" and took up two Hard Drive slots. I downgraded to a 7" X800 just now. I'm trying to look for a new video card that has similar dimensions, but half the cards on newegg list their...

Radeon HD 3850 video card added, +3 more video games

Notice: The previous topic was locked by me and is no longer active. I am no longer SELLING my item, so I'm sorry to all those interested in purchasing the CPU. *NEW!* I also have a Radeon HD3850 512MB video card that I'm looking to trade for a video card that is under 8 inches. This is also...

Fine, now it's for trade only. razor, you can thank BerserkBen for forcing me to make it FT only. I told you this was a low priority. I'm not going to get banned because of BS like this.

She is using Sony Vegas 8. AFAIK, Vegas does not take advantage of a GPU at all. *edit* no longer allowed to sell

closing because stupid title can't be edited fully. BS

OK. I'll try and see if I can get her video editing program to the 64-bit version. I think she has a free upgrade for it. I knew that her work was a resource hog, but I just upgraded her to 4GB and Windows 7 yesterday, and I looked at the task manager today and she was already eating up 3.2GB...

Hello, The Dell Inspiron 546 in my signature below currently has Windows 7 Home Vista Premium x64 installed with 4GB of RAM. It has been proven through benchmarks in the programs that I specifically use that I will see a benefit in rendering large video files if I have more RAM. There was one...

If his motherboard is an Asus I bet it can't handle the E6300. He'd only be asking about Pentium D if he were stuck with it like I was years ago. I never want to look at a Pentium D processor ever again, nor any Asus moterhboard.

If by some miracle you're a video editor like I am, you will see a boost with that fourth core. Even the low-end Athlon II X4 620 is better than the 720 at almost all rendering benchmarks. If you're a gamer, forget it. 720 will last you just fine until the 965 drops to like 50 bucks or there...

I'm not gaming, I just wanted to know which was worth keeping. I'll upgrade to a 4770, 5770, or 4890 someday, but it is not necessary at this time.

I figured as much. To eBay with the HD 4350!

I have a new Dell coming in that has an HD 4350 already installed. Is it better or worse than my X800 Pro?

Everything's out of stock, son

PM me with price/trade offers for your Athlon II X4 or Phenom II X4 AM3 CPU. Anything from the Athlon II X4 620 to the Phenom II X4 965. Here's what I have to trade: PC Parts Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8 GHz (OC'ed to 3.1 GHz stable on a cheap setup, I'm sure it could go further with a better...

The PC is for the wife. She edits videos, but not as often as I do. I considered getting the 620 and upgrading her again next year to six core with the same motherboard, but I'll just get an upgrade now that should last her for two-three years. She's recently started editing HD 1080p videos, and...

I definitely want to have a recording studio whenever I build a house. Quiet PC is an absolute must. I'll probably line the whole damn room with acoustic foam, too. I really can't imagine one needing a powerful computer for recording, though. I did audio work on my Celeron M 1.4 GHz laptop for...
