Howdy, I'm working with a browser based application that crashes 10-50 times a day at work. I can't fix the culprit but it would be a help if I could bypass the tediously long crash sequence. I'm not entirely sure these questions are relevant since I don't have much experience with...

Howdy [H] gods, long time no see! Without dallying: I'm looking for a new laptop with a Core 2 Duo or better and 2GB *dual channel* ddr2. Integrated graphics will serve fine with a around a 14" - 15" screen size ideally. Hard drive can be any size, speed, type. Does not need a burner...

Thanks for the advice guys! The EVGA board looks great. It isn't missing any features - says it supports 1333 FSB and DDR @ 1066 which is what I'm running. The video card spacing also looks to be identical to my old Abit board so I won't have to replace the bridge between my EK fullcovers...

Hello, let me skip the small talk and get to business: After two years of epic fail my Abit IN9 32X Max is dead. Unfortunately I'm married to the rest of the rig so I'm looking for a replacement that fits and *works reliably* above all else. Therefore I ask you this: if you HAD to buy a...

Hello, The system ( nothing is overclocked unless stated otherwise ): e6850 ( dual core @ 3 ghz, 1333 fsb ), D-Tek Fuzion waterblock Abit IN9-32X MAX ( 680i SLI ), active cooling fan installed on northbridge 2gb Corsair Dominator 8500 5-5-5-18(?) Ram ( 2 sticks ), rated at 1066 and running...

It's not installing XP that worries me, it's my bios not changing the boot order. Pick any OS you want it won't matter. I just want to be able to select the drive I want to boot from in my bios. For whatever reason the bios just defaults back to it's original order after I reorder my boot...

Hello, I'm running a Abit In9 32x max. The system has been *fairly* stable for the last 2-3 months aside from the occasional crash while playing a video game. Right now I'm running Vista and I need to install XP for a project I'm working on at Upenn. I'm installing XP on a second drive...

I mean that I have an Enermax Liberty 500w and that with two 8800gts an e6850, 680i motherboard, watercooling, raptor, and other odds and ends it's running hot enough to fry an egg on. Well past 50c, probably past 60. Voltages are very unstable. My cpu voltage fluctuates +- .03v. Imo...

Going with a 1000w supply is mostly overreaction to my current psu sucking and a healthy dose of paranoia. I can afford to spend an extra 50$ over a 800w psu. Am really hoping to get a recommendation for a 1000w psu or confirmation that the Ultra X3 is a good choice.

Hello, Really simple and probably noobish question - bear with me. I'm upgrading to a SLI 8800GTS and my current Enermax 500w isn't cutting it. I'm almost positive I want a Ultra X3 1000w. I like that it's a modular PSU and that it's a single rail psu ( vs, my old 2 rail Enermax. )...

Do FSB holes have to do with the clock generator? Or is it something random? I'm confident that I can add a NB water cooler to my loop, but there is no clearance under my video card to install a SB waterblock. What kind of cooler would you recommend for the SB? Also the motherboard...

Hello, I'm running an Abit IN9, I've gotten it to post and run at 1500fsb. That's pretty disappointing considering I've got an e6850 and that's only 3375mhz cpu. I'm wondering what's the max overclock you've gotten from this board, or from other 680i boards.

Seeing as how both of you recommended adding a second loop and getting more than 2x 120.2 radiators I'm probably going to have to upgrade my case. Any suggestions? Something that doesn't require a lot of modification hopefully :-P

Hello, I'm currently running a watercooling setup on my cpu with a D-tek Fuzion, a DDC 3.2 pump and 2x Swiftech MCR120 radiators. I've recently upgraded my video setup ( and motherboard ) - I'm now running 2x 8800GTS OC 640MB from XFX. The cards are clocked at 600/1900 stock and are...

:-D no need. My fps in Bioshock and Lost planet ( even at 1680x1050 ) is pheonomenal. Both in DX 10 mode. And the DX10 goodies look nice. Only other games I play - counterstrike and WoW, aren't really that hardware intensive.
