    PS2 ribbon cable came loose

    Ok, I found a slot like thing under the CD-DVD drive where I believe this ribbon cable goes in. Cause right next to it, theres two other ribbon cables that go into similar slots and this one is open so I'm guessing this ribbon cable goes in there. My only problem is, I don't know how to push the...

    PS2 ribbon cable came loose

    I opened up my PS2 to clean it and after I was done, i was moving it and the top fell off a bit and the ribbon cable came off from the console. How do I fit it back on? It's attached to the top case part (where it hooks into the PWR and RESET), but its unattached on the other end where its...

    Feasible upgrade, please suggest

    What about an Opteron 165? Also, the Sapphire X1950XT @ Newegg has a combo deal with a X2 4200+. Is that worthit? Also, if I do get the 8800GT, will it play DirectX10 games for me?

    Feasible upgrade, please suggest

    Over 2 years ago, during Thanksgiving, I bought a Venice 3000+ and a DFI LanParty UT nF4 Ultra-D, promising myself that I would buy the rest of the parts. I still need a video card, RAM, and power supply, and now, Socket 939 is even phasing out! Will a Venice 3000+ on Socket 939 even hold...

    why spend $400+ on a video card?

    Simple answer: Because you want to. It is that simple concept. If you have 400$ to dish out on a video card, then you can do whatever you want with it.

    What power supply do I NEED?

    LOL, another opinion now. So, final decision, should I just go for the Corsair? The Antec deal is over....and no one's said anything about the Fortron. Is it a good value?

    My PSU smells funny!

    2GB of RAM and a 7900GT look a bit too much for even a 430W PSU. You should probably have 500W just to be safe. But then, it's Antec, it's a good brand but you just might've gotten a bad product. Call up Antec and get an RMA.

    What power supply do I NEED?

    Ok, well I have had bad luck with rebates in the past, so I will look at the Antec as 100$. Is it worth the extra money to just buy the Corsair HX520, or will the NeoHE be enough? Can someone give me a link for the NeoHE reviews on the 550W model? I'm just a bit skeptical about it (I used to...

    What power supply do I NEED?

    Hmmm...although that does look enticing, I've had bad experiences with mail in rebates, and are you sure the NeoHE can handle this? I've heard a lot of Antecs lately have problems....

    What power supply do I NEED?

    Looks good, but is it worth just to put in the extra $ and get a powerstream? And it looks like that Corsair is modular...or is it part modular, part normal? I see the normal cables in the newegg pics as well.....I somehow don't trust modular, the ones I've seen are a bit shaky. I'm hoping this...

    Does this Crucial Ballistic use micron chips

    Ballistix have a tendency to fry, especially if you don't use active cooling on them. Other than that, a while ago, a huge batch of them had problems.

    Which card SHOULD I get?

    All this time, I was debating between a 7900GTO, 7950GT, and X1950XT. Yesterday, I talked to eclipseoc (from here) and he persuaded me in a new direction. Why spend the extra $ for those cards, when I can get a 7900GS, which performs almost as well as the others? Here are the games I play...

    X1950XT....but warranty?

    Actually, an FX5200. My actual computer has been not working since 2004, and I had to RMA the FX5200 (luckily, it had lifetime warranty). However, it was actually the motherboard's problem. I just want a good card. Will the Sapphire die out on my after 3 years? I'm also afraid that I'll...
