Coolermaster fans? I used to have them before going for nexuses, and the noise difference was barely noticeable. Removing that side fan and covering the hole with some hard plastic though is good. no temp difference, and no more horrible turbulance noise. Yeah the hard drive vibrations suck. I tried...

Yeah, the drives were a lot quieter in my last case, but that was cheap and had no ps shelf, so the heavy seasonic pulled out on the back of the case putting stress on my video and sound cards. I also bought a sleeving kit for the power lines, but need to order a pin extractor. Had no trouble using ...

finally have a quiet computer again
I replaced my pentium 4 northwood and radeon 9800 system with an x2 3800 and all in wonder x1800 back in november. Unfortunately I went through a string of crappy unstable motherboards, a bad video card whose problems I blamed other things for, crap like that. Was never able to connect up my reserat...

I have the AIW 1800. Besides the bit of latency on the tv tuner part, which i guess is common with tuner cards, making it impossible to use it for my super nintendo, I'm happy with it. As far as chipset handicaps, I used to be suspicious, but just ran benchmarks after replacing my a8r with an a8n, m...

First thing: The a8rmvp is junk. Just look at their forum at all the complaints. I had one for a few months. Major stuttering and crashing. I just put in an a8n5x yesterday, working flawlessly. It's the same as the a8n-e but with the non-ultra nforce4, so regular old sata, and no nv activearmor what...

If it's not any better, I'm buying the first conroe ready board available and a cheaper p4 to last me until conroe's out. The way it sounds, it'll b...

Re: Asus A8N5X
I just recently upgraded to an Asus A8N5X. The bad: * Because of the low price, only the CPU fan has Q-fan support. ASUS has disabled fan control for all other headers, even with Speedfan. That sucks. The first page says speedfan compatible, which is a bit misleading then. I have this board due to ...

Cool, thanks for the warnings guys. The particular board only had two newegg reviews which were good, and google only turned up two other reviews, one of which mentioned memory problems. I think I've decided to just spend the extra twenty some for the asus a8n5x. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813135009 My asus a8r-mvp has been pretty unstable, and I don't exactly have a ton of money to keep trying boards.

Intel just revised that board and started shipping new ones on the 16th. Minor hardware changes were added to let it support the conroe chips. The previous revisions of the board, along with most 975 boards currently out won't work. It's not just a matter of a bios upgrade. Hope you didn't buy the b...

Well the non-32 version was supposed to be a winner, but ended up having major defects.

I got the premium version of that board about a week ago and will probably end up returning it. They hide the fact that when you put in 4 sticks of ddr400 it downclocks them to 333. Setting it to the correct settings manually caused the thing to crash over and over for the rest of the night, even we...
