Re: Acer Aspire Revo R3610-9012 ... Where to buy ?

Unwanted09 — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 18:00:06 GMT

I guess this is also listed as AR3610-U9012 or (PT.SCX02.002) ...

It is listed as Not in Stock at a couple of places now (such as bhphotovideo.com & cdw.com) ...

Anyone know when Newegg is getting this in?

*Note: Things like this are why I hate PR announcements that don't list exact release dates. Especially when they say "Available Now", and aren't.

Small Form Factor Computers & their uses

Boosok — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 06:53:40 GMT

I am curious on the other uses you can get out of a mini-ITX/micro-ATX computer without it pertaining to HTPC or a CarPC. These type of computers -- mainly mini-ITX -- fascinates me about all the possibilities of its use, but it stumps me to see and think of them all. I am looking into making a few of them for HTPCs around the house, although at the same time it feels like it could be a bit of waste to have so much power set aside for "entertainment". I know, I have picked a strange time to have a moral and ethical crisis on computer usage. :-P Also, I find myself a bit confused between all the different CPUs you can have like the Intel ATOM/Geode/ION vs the bigger, powerful boys.

I have built systems for over ten years, however, I have been a little behind in what's what in the last three to four years. When I realized that micro-ATXs are pretty damn useful if you do not want a large PC, I was pretty tickled about it. Now that I have discovered mini-ITX, I am even more tickled over the ideas that I can use them for.

Thanks in advance of any comments/clearifications that are posted.

Dumb psu question-are these psus compatible?

particleman — Wed, 20 May 2009 05:29:12 GMT

So...I have an EVGA X58 motherboard, Intel quad core i7 Nehalem processor, and the Antec TP-550 psu I bought to go with them didn't even get it to spin up (despite appearing to have the correct connectors, and me doing my best to make sure everything was connected correctly). I'm looking at these two Silverstone PSUs as replacements-

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256011

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256022

My questions would then be as follows-

*Are they compatible with my motherboard and cpu?

*Is there any difference between 24 pin main connector and 20+4 pin?

*Will either of these be ample enough to power 2 GTX285 video cards and the usual assortment of other things that go into a system, and do they have the appropriate hookups? I currently only have one video card but I am planning on adding more in the future.

*Alternately, would other psus be recommended for my configuration/needs?

Thanks for the help. I used to be good at this sort of thing, but that was back in the days when processors still had 86 in their names :P Also, if this is misplaced, I'll be happy to repost elsewhere.

cyberpower pc, is this a good buy?

scaraface — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 05:55:37 GMT

Hello, i am in the market for a desktop, and i need one fairly cheap. I already have this comp and i really want the desktop for gaming (not intense gaming). I was thinking of getting this

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229090

but then i surfed the web and found out that cyberpowerpc is rather infamous for crappy service/computers. Will it be any different if i buy from newegg? Is this a good buy for casual pc gaming? and before anyone asks, no i will not build my own computer, i have never done it before and i am not very confident in my abilities.

PC Build help $#&@$

atomicpa — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 23:30:36 GMT

Won't begin start up even after full parts/connector inspection.

Here's what I bought: (if you see a compatability problem, let me know... all of it should work together just fine)

GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor Model BX80570E8500 - Retail

pqi TURBO 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model PQI25400-4GDB - Retail

COOLER MASTER UCP RS700-AAAAA3 700W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Power Supply - Retail

COOLER MASTER HAF 932 RC-932-KKN1-GP Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail (she's beautiful and HUGE)

ASUS V52 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler - Retail (plus silver Thermal comp)

I have the CD/DVD Rom drives from the old PC transfered into the new Coolmaster case. Also I just bought a new HDD a month ago and transfered it to the new tower.

Here's the deal, I got it all in. It was all hooked up properly. I push the power button on the case and it slowly revs..revs...revs.. and then shuts off. I have no idea what the problem here is. I can't find a problem anywhere. I've removed the PSU and put in another from the old PC I was replacing (550 watt). That one imediately shut down and didn't even rev. So, I systematically remove possible componants (CD/DVD drives), leds, case fans and the like to see if that's the problem, still no love.

I'm about ready to throw something here. This isn't my first build, and I've modded almost every PC I've ever owned, but this $#%@& is driving me crazy people. If anyone has a decent idea as to what is going on (or not able to go on) I'd really appreciate the assist.

Thanks

Question Concerning DDR2 Memory For My Needs

Galilean — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 03:32:12 GMT

First, I want to thank everyone who is kind enough to take the time to simply help others out. I have quickly become impressed with NewEgg.com and the online community surrounding it's atmosphere. With that said.....

You all have already sent me in the right direction on Mobo,CPU,PSU and all but I have a few final question before committing to that "Confirm Order" button. Here it goes...

1.) The PC is going to be used solely for my gaming pleasure and has a Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0Ghz CPU, the Mobo has the room to go up to 16Gb w/DDR2 or 8Gb w/DDR3, should I go for 4x2Gb DDR2 800 or rather 4x2 DDR2 1066??? I play several MMO's (i.e. World of Warcraft, Warhammer Online, etc...) and have been plagued with insane latancy/FPS issues (Uber-LAG) in the past and merely want to ensure myself that I can get the most out of the games ( I want it SCREAMING FAST at least for what I can afford). This is my first time building a PC from the ground up and I am a little skiddish about tweeking the 1066 in BIOS, especially after reading the forums at OCZ's site and all the negitive issues revolving around it. I mean will 4x2Gb DDR2 800 give me what I'm looking for, or is it worth the time and money to continue to research and become comfortable in tweeking 1066???? 800 or 1066.... 800 or 1066.....AHHHHHH...HELP!

2.) Do I even NEED 8Gb ???? Or will running 2 sticks of 2Gb dual channel be sufficient?

3.) I would love to hear suggestions on Manufacturer's.

Thank you for your help, this will be the last time for several years (4-5 years) that I will have a chance to build a good PC due to $$$. And as I have a medical condition that prohibits me from doing much of anything outdoors, this is actually kind of important to me more than just trying to "Go Cheap". Thanks Guys!!

Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 - What do I need?

koolerator — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 22:23:37 GMT

I intend to purchase a Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 scanner. One scanner feature that I need is Bates Stamp numbering. It doesn't have to be "Bates"

specifically, but it needs to serve the same purpose. So, if anyone knows: (1) does the scansnap s510 come with that feature standard? (2) if not, does

the Rack2-Filer have that feature?

I have been told that "Adobe Acrobat 9 - Professional" has a Bates stamp feature. (1) Does anyone know if that is correct? (2) Is adobe9-professional

compatible with the scansnap s510? (3) would the rack2-filer and the adobe9-professional be unnecessarily duplicative of each other? if so, which is

considered to be a better product (vis-a-vis features, user friendliness, etc.)

It is probably evident from my questions that I do not have a high level of knowledge about, or familiarity with, these products. So, I would very

much appreciate whatever help or advice anyone has. Thank you.
