Don't pay any attention to the "start-up" juice numbers. It assumes ALL your devices will power up at exactly the same time, and that just does not happen. The main reason I was concerned with startup requirements, is because I had my system (I think my current one) not boot because I was trying to...

Athlon 64 PSU requirement confusion.
I've read Power Supply Fundamentals & Recommended Units and I'm still confused about how to determine what "enough" power is. I've looked for some Athlon 64 related threads, but didn't find anything helpful. PSU: I was considering the Enermax NoiseTaker 475 because of the 82% efficiency (although I ...

I've done some shipping work. I much prefer FedEx over UPS, but the cost is difficult to justify for everything. Shipping companies give discounts based on volume, so there can be a compelling reason for a business to go with one shipper. Personally, I'd offer at least FedEx if a customer wanted to ...

Something like this might work: D200 x W100 x H80 (mm). If I recall CD drives are about 200mm deep.

Well, the G4 guy is a guy, an industrial artist who strangely doesn't have a website (I assume you want a link to the guy's website). He had the case custom made by talking to the people who run that site, not by ordering it straight from them. Is there some other site where his case is displayed? ...

Here are some: http://www.silentpcreview.com/ Welcome section --> None of those links will do anything when I right click on them. What are you expecting a 'right-click' to do? Mozilla and Galeon (based on Mozilla) work fine for me. What version of Mozilla are you using? I don't think this is a sit...

Re: Site navigation / usability poll
1) Does "articles" tell you enough about what that section is about? First, I'll assume a user has a general idea of what spcr is. If not, then the big "Welcome" block should fill them in. At first glance, I'm tempted to say "Yes, Articles is descriptive enough." Before clicking on Articles, I look...

Why not just create an entire forum dedicated to projects? ... Each new post in the forum would be a new project, That was my intention. and discussions about that project would be posted as replies to the particular thread. Except here, I was still advocating a 'discussion' thread seperately. bit-...

Here's what I had in mind for the Gallery without allowing posts. Another site I browse has articles written about various topics. A thread is created in the forums under Article Discussions. This forum allows users to ask questions, etc. The Gallery idea could work very similar, and not be difficul...

Don't blindly trust me, as there's always an exception. First unplug from the mains, ATX psus are otherwise ready-to-go, even with the machine switched off. There are generally only two dangerous capacitors in a psu, big electrolytics typically 500-1000uF, around 200v, part of the US voltage double...
