There are two screaming deals on Newegg right now, after all rebates are mailed in here is the offers. $133 for a MSI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) N460GTX Cyclone 768D5/OC Video Card VS $155 for a EVGA GeForce GTX 465 (Fermi) Superclocked 01G-P3-1467-AR Video Card Is $22 bucks worth the...

Yes and worse. I am finding that though it looks stable at the desktop the minute you start running a P5K-E board into a heavy game that if you are running a 1333fsb proc (your e6750 is the same chip I'm using and I'll bet if you look in either Everest or PCWizard you'll see it's being...

and that is an 800 fsb chip by nature chief, that's my point is that this mobo is rated for 1066 and even 1333 but people are only able to get stable using 800fsb parts to start out. Now my big question is is your ram either 1066 or 1333? If it's DDR2-800 that only further proves the point...

Contrary to what I was told Intels own site states the P35 Express chipset can handle all the way up to DDR3. Now is the p35 "Express" chipset different then the P35? Is that the whole issue or is this just back to bad implimentation on ASUS' part. Just trying to figure this mess out. FYI...

Considering what I am going through with that board and DDR2-1066 ram I would NOT use anything above DDR2-800 ram on that board. Please see my threads and responses for more details but long story short if you put anything above 800 ram on a p35 chipset your gambling with instability.

Pretty much hit my point on the head chief and this is why I am having such a beef with ASUS right now. I am a victim of overzealous marketeers because of the fact when I ordered this board I was not aware the p35 chipset could not handle 1066 ram. Now being the types we on here are you think...

All I want to contribute is that you be careful if your looking at a P5K-E based board not to fall into the nightmare I ran into with a ASUS P5K-E/WIFI-AP. Thought I got a steal deal and wound up with a flippin nightmare because I bought 1066 ram which this board and it's BIOS does NOT natively...

I have manually set the voltages for the ram which was 2.2v as well as the timings. Since I am not overclocking and using only one 8800GTX the 650W Antec should handle the power. Please school me if you have info I am all ears. For the one who has 1066 ram running on a P5K-E, which proc are...

There are a couple different tricks mentioned on the ASUS forums I found while looking at a different issue. Dig under all P5K boards not just your model and you should find a few replies that could help. Other then that all I can say is good luck as I have a P5K-E/WiFi-AP that won't run the...

I have been posting like mad over on the ASUS forum ever since I discovered this is a known issue. The numorous threads I have dug up and been posting on are located below. What I am looking to know is has anyone on here who has this mobo specificly been able to get it to run correctly with...

I'm at my wits end with this machine. Did enough searching to realize everyone says the ICH9R chipset and Vista for raid is a no go presently until Intel pulls their head out and gives us new drivers. Then I tried a straight up with the two drives in IDE mode and still Vista had some sort of...

Actually I did not plan on OCing as this machine is for someone else and I just want it bulletproof. As I understand the info I have been given I am either going to have to push the ram above it's rated 1066 (or 533 FSB) to 1333 (667 FSB) to match the processor, or run the proc at 2.4. Main...

Can I run my proc at a different speed then my ram these days? The mobo supports 1066/1333 for procs but only 1066 for ram, the proc is a 1333 and the ram is 1066. Am I going to have to downclock my proc to ram speeds or OC the ram to proc speeds to make this work? I'd like to run each at...

Can I run my proc at a different speed then my ram these days? Natural deduction leads me to believe this is a none issue but I figured I would ask those who will be more then happy to school my butt if needed ;) The combo I'm putting together all from Newegg: ASUS P5K-E/WIFI-AP LGA 775...

Thanks for the very informative post sir. In the end whatever was the real issue will haunt me but the work is done none the less. As you suggested I just set her to cook overnight and forgot about it, 3-4 hours later it was done. My biggest issue by far turned out to be an issue with the...

Thanks much for the tips. I did google a lot last night and did some more experimenting. To answer the first question I am gauging the speed of actually file transfer using 10-20 gig blocks of mp3s to give me a realistic base. Nessus is on to my biggest issue which is the drive I need to get...

Knowing this is the home of those that love to optimize I have a quandary for you all. Trying to solve the conundrum of why I can not pull more then 12-13% out of my gigabit network. I am a total newb at optimizing this part of my machine so I'm hoping some generous souls will spew forth some...

Someone more in tune with today’s naming conventions school me please. I was perusing Newegg much like my wife does jewelry stores and noticed these two chips. One priced at $525 and one price at $1159. One is an Opteron 2218 and the other an Opteron 8218 but other then those distinctions...

I have a few machines behind a company proxy that can't get out to upload the results but they download new packets just fine. I'm just wondering if anyone might be able to give me a quick write up of how to manually transfer the result files to say a USB key drive so I can have another machine...

me thinks the release date is more based on them selling the leftover 2405s, better go order one just in case :cool:

*bump* anyone?

Here's one for the books gents. Has anyone out there ever seen this wierdness. One of our machines has: IS7 mobo ATI 9600XT When you install XPs service pack two the graphics freak out, I mean windows won't even get you to the desktop in a way you can see what your doing the artifacts...

Geebuz has this issue been hashed. I think the last two posts sum it up very well. In the end IMHO the only thing to do is go to a kiosk or such and test drive one before you buy. I just bought a 2405 after hearing all the ravings from my buddies/reviews and am in love. But I'm 30 and have...

well on a lighter note at least i don't feel bad about buying my 2405 a few weeks ago

I'm a dork, just spotted jacuzz1's thread, just about all the comparing anyone needs. Nice but too pricey for my blood........yet ;)

I can tell you the 2405 looks gorgeous. Word has it the 3007 does not have the brightness or contrast of the 2405 so unless you absolutely must have the biggest, the 2405 probably looks better overall. Plus WoW supports the native 1920X1200 of the 2405 without fiddling. I can only imagine...

Well a little searching and I have learned the horrible reality that this vixen is discontinued, as I'm sure most of you know *sniff*. Guess I'm just that far behind the times dang...... Well since I'm not too keen on buying used gear with questionable lifespans, guess I'm sticking with my LCD...

Um where in sam heck are ppl finding fw-900s for under 1500 new? or was yours used? Because trust me, never did I say life was perfect, I said I could forgive the flaws due to the bennies. Tell me I can chase down a 24-inch widescreen CRT SONY for cheap and my girlfriend might just get a new...

Yes you little vixen and all I can say is I wish I had an extra 1100 laying around and trust me I would have gone that route *sniff*

Boy people get heated on this topic. Anyway all this debate aside IMHO test drive one and see if it matters to you. Here's my story: Had a Sony G400 19", colors so vivid you can swim in them, gorgous CRT that I swore by for years. Was at the same crossroad as you a few weeks ago. Got my...
