  • IDE Sata question

    I got really excited when the latest blow out sale had a Seagate 320 G Sata HD on sale.  So I purchased it for my PC.  Then I decided that I rather have it for my notebook computer, and went online and purchased the AMS enclosure for the HD, not realizing that it's IDE and not Sata like the HD.  Both of the items were REALLY good ...

  • gaming/work computer

    Hey I am going to be building a new computer so I just wanted to get some feedback on my selections for the new computer. My biggest concern right now is the power supply because I want it to be enough if I want to do 2 or 3 way sli, add another cd drive, or overclock the motherboard/CPU/RAM/Video card.

  • HELP!.... again

    A couple months ago I completed my first solo computer build. Had some initial problems but eventually got it to start up and run. Gave it to my sister since it was for her, and she told me she was getting a blue screen with a message about a fatal error and windows needing to shut down. I went to check it out and all it does now is report a disk ...

  • "The Rise and Fall of AMD & ATI ??"

    I just now read that nVidia acquired Ageia...I thought that between Ageia physics and ''true'' quad core processing that AMD/ATI stood a chance of redemption by going a different route technologically. Around the time of socket 939 (seems so long ago) AMD seemed untouchable. Although ATI took the backseat graphically around that time, building ...

  • Need eggxpert advice with my first custom pc

     Alright so I'm finally building a new computer because my current one that my dad gave me two years ago for Christmas is absolute c**p! (40GB HDD, 380MB RAM, etc..). My budget is kinda low on this. I really didn't want it to go higher than $400 but it seems I won't be able to control that. Currently it's above $600 though and I REALLY need ...

  • First Build

    I just attempted my first build and so far it looks like it's a failure. I have everything plugged/connected right (i think) but i can't get it to power on. The green light on the motherboard turns on when I plug the PC to the wall outlet which leads me to believe the power supply works. I'm a little confused about the power buttons on the case ...

  • Building a new gaming rig.

    It's been years since I built a box and I've lost track of what everything is already.  Anyhow.. I bought a SATA drive (have they completely replaced IDE?) anyhow.. I was looking at the processors in the 75-100 range and I found this nice cpu. (Forgive me as it's my first post.. I haven't worked out how to get all the item details ...
