Due to the usually smaller size and shape of the cases I've used in the past I have generally run my AIO coolers with the radiators on the top or in the case of my 250D on the side, primarily because I couldn't fit them in the front. I typically had the fans inside the radiator bowing out of the...

So I've been running an old LSI/3ware 9650SE-8LPML raid card with a few WD Red 5400RPM 4TB drives in raid 5 for a few years. I've transferred this raid setup between several server builds, and have not had any issues with the exception of a single failed drive when I first set it up. It is...

Zalman CNPS9900-DF (Dual Fan) Un-used, except when attempted to install it the first time, only to find out it was a hair too tall for my case. All mounting hardware and install tools included for AMD and Intel. This unit retails for ~$50 new, asking $40 shipped. Heatware: Zen_Dragon (good...

I have for sale a Corsair Hydro Series H115i Extreme. Purchased in February, replaced the stock fans with a pair of cougar 140mm fans that are a bit quieter. I still have the original fans which are included in the sale. 100% working, like new condition, selling only because it wont fit in my...

SOLD!

I have a SilverStone GD04 (this one), that I would like to water cool. I am trying to figure out where to put a radiator. It seems as though it would fit in the dual fan area on the right side (from the front) of the case. These fans are butted right up against eachtoher which the also seem to...

If this is released, it may be a compelling reason to switch back to AMD. http://www.extremetech.com/gaming/203210-leaked-details-if-true-point-to-potent-amd-zen-cpu What are your thoughts? P.S. Something was going on with my browser and I didnt see half of the posts in this forum, including...

I bought an EeeBox that was missing the drive mount... I cant seem to find a way to procure the mount that originally came with the thing so I was just going to mount my SSD directly to the motherboard. In a video of the tear down the manufacturer had attached what looked like 1/8th inch foam...

I have two cards in mind to replace the 6950 that I am currently running, which has been overheating massively lately despite my best efforts to reapply thermal paste and such. First card I am looking at is this: EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2662-KR GeForce GTX 660 2GB Good: Price, 2GB memory...

I am building a little media server based on a E45M1-I DELUXE, and a 3Ware raid controller with 4 WD Black (7200rpm) drives. I cant find the exact power requirements for the motherboard but Im guessing 30-40W, and according to the spec paper each drive uses about 10W under load, not sure how...

So I recently built a fancy new i7 Machine to replace a slightly aging but still performant Phenom II x6. However the Phenom has gotten an upgrade of its own to become a Hyper-V server running windows 2012 so far with only one VM running Windows Storage Server 2012. I also bought a 3Ware 9650SE...

I have a 6 Core Phenom II, 16gb of ram, an AMD 7950 video card with 2gb of ram, an SSD for the OS, and a couple 7200rpm sata drives for storage. It is by no means a server class box or anything super fancy, but I want to get a little more out of it. What I would like to do is setup an always on...

So I picked up an E45M1-I Deluxe for a fanless HTPC build, along with a 60GB OCZ Vertex 4 SSD and 8GB of ram. Fairly simple system, went together well no issues there. However I am absolutely appalled at the WiFi performance. At best I get about 5mb/s up and down, horrible latency and general...

It was time for some updating. My old system, though still running strong, was starting to show its age. Dual core black edition kuma 7750, 6gb ddr2 memory, origional 30gb OCZ vertex 30gb SSD and a 150gb raptor, 2TB storage array. Will make a good file server! haha So just got the new build...

http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-M14x/pd.aspx Upgraded to 6GB ram, and the more expensive NIC with WiMax, and added Bluetooth. I contemplated upgrading to the 900p display but it seemed kind of pointless at only 14 inches. Somebody please tell me I did OK before I have a nervous breakdown...

A friend of mine, an Architect, asked me to spec out a system for him for 3D/Architectural rendering. All of my builds have been mid-range gaming systems, so I dont have a whole lot of experience choosing hardware for this sort of task. We have a $2000ish budget for the build, most of which Im...

Ive got a ton of old parts sitting around, enough to build a complete system pretty much. So I wanted to throw together a system for a linux file server. The only think I'm missing is a motherboard. Ive been searching online and cant seem to find anything new, for any reasonable price so I was...

I have for sale or trade, two items: Razer Barracuda AC-1 Sound Card This is about 2 years old, but was only used for about 8 months. I had a 7.1 channel surround sound reciever plugged into this using the FiberOptic connection and it worked great. The sound was spectacular! I am selling this...

In the market for a new access point, Ive whittled my choices down to two. Not sure which one to choose so I just wanted to get some opinions before I buy. Right now the choices are between the D-Link DWL-3200AP and the Cisco WAP2000. Both appear to be very similar in price, and performance...

Why is it so hard to find wireless cards that work with windows 7 64 bit? I really dont understand this!!! The trend obviously is going towards 64 bit, so why is that very few wireless card manufacturers actually make 64-bit drivers??? I dont want some cheesy USB wireless card I want a standard...

So I've been putting this off for some time now. But my 5 year old power supply is now the only thing in my case older than a year, and through all my other hardware iterations I am still having the weird BSOD error after sleep mode. SO, I figure the only thing left to replace is the power...

I have a Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3, recently purchsed, seems to run just fine until I try to put the machine in sleep mode. Upon returning from sleep mode I get a BSOD every time. This has persisted though several OS reinstalls, first Vista x32 then onto x64 and now in Windows 7 x64. Im pretty sure...

I have a lightly used T-Mobile G1 phone for trade. I love android but the phone is just a little too big for my taste. It is in excellent shape and has never been dropped, it also has never been used without a screen protector. I am looking to possibly trade for a new or lightly used unlocked...

So Ive been out of the loop for a while. Still running a pre AM2 Athlon 64 X2 in fact. Ive been reading reviews and such on both intels new i7 platform as well as AMD's platform. And to be frank, Im a little confused as to why i7 is SOO much faster than its competition! I hear everybody touting...

So my motherboard has been on the fritz lately. Random BSOD (in Vista x64, which has been running flawlessly for months), usb ports suddenly not working, wont post randomly, onboard network card does not initialize, etc. I have doubts that it will even last till the end of the week and I don't...

SOLD! So I bought this thing a while back and have yet to install it. It originally retailed for $500. It was discontinued because it didn't sell well due to its sheer size, but is still considered one of the best 5 channel amps on the market. Its a massive amp; over 2 feet long, and is...

I'm looking for a working,older, even sub 1GHz Mini, Micro, or Pico ITX system, with at least two LAN ports. Preferably a full working system, but if it short some memory or something that's fine. Im looking to spend less than $200 dollars, not necessarily including shipping. Im not too...

Ive got my network, router (WAP54G with Tomato), wireless, etc. fairly well locked down. My wireless uses WPA2 w/AES encryption and MAC filtering, which is probably not infallible but secure enough to keep 99% of the random war drivers, and clueless hijacker's out. The wireless router itself...

Ive been looking for a linux/apache/php based blogging/article posting system that is fully customizable via CSS. I do not want anything that provides an interface other than the system itself as I want to integrate it fully into an existing site. I have found a few candidates, but I wanted to...

I'm looking for a reliable (as far as windows goes), and reasonably priced windows based hosting solutions to host some .net projects that I'm working on. Ive obviously searched around and found several windows based hosts, however I do not trust any of those web host review sites, and wanted...

Im looking to replace my trusty old WRT54G with something a little more up to date to support some a new business venture. Gigabit, Wireless-N, etc. Ive been doing a little searching on the net for reviews and what not but Im not sure I trust most of those. My question for you all is; in the...

Ive got a 6 month old CM 690 sitting under my desk, and Im thinking about doing a little water cooling. I was curious if any of you had tried to fit a double fan radiator up at the top there? It seems to me that it would fit but I dont want to go ordering stuff and not be absolutely sure. I did...

I just picked up an EVGA 8800 GTS with 320Mb for around $280. I was talking to a buddy at work about it who has the 640mb version. He said there was a pretty big difference in a lot of games due to the extra ram. My question for you all is; do you agree? Do you think the extra ram is worth the...

I've pretty much decided on getting an Abit AT8 as with the new bios it seems to get stellar performance reviews and seems to be quite stable. So Im searching around and I see that there are two versions; the AT8 and the AT8 32X. The only major difference that I can see is that the AT8 32X...

Im looking for a good windows based web host. I usually use linux hosts, but he wants to consider both options. The site has not been developed yet so we can go either way. Im not necessarily looking for something cheap, just something reliable with some decent storage space as there will be...

I know, Im really cutting it short on the VC at the moment, but I blew my cash on the a new motherboard, processor, and hard drive, now I just need a cheap VC to tide me over until I can recharge and get a nice one. I only have 100 bucks left give or take, Im sure I dont have a whole lot of...

Just bought a dual core A64 3800, and I was just curious if my trusty old Zalman CNPS6000-Cu will work with this new beast? This is my first A64 setup so Im not to familar with the the mounting support. Im sure it wont but it doesnt hurt to ask. I have a huge 120mm fan blowin on the thing.
