I use the Silverstone MFP51 and like it quite a bit. It can be setup to accept signals from the Microsoft MCE Remote, so I use that instead of the iMon remote. One nice feature with it is you can turn the PC on from a complete off with it.

"I LOVE DORKS"

Seen on the back of one of my friends cars, her husbands last name is Dork. And no, she did not take it.

I have the XFX Force Fatality 8600GT. It's a nice card.

The problem with fighting these little wars is that we abide by international laws thereby tying our hands and those we are fighting do not. Sure we do break the rules a bit (the interrogations in Cuba), but we still have to fight humainly. I also think it's apparent we did not learn a thing in Viet...

Maybe we'll get another badass passive card like the XFX Force 7950GT.

I like my XFX Force Fatality 8600GT.

You can get longer screws. I believe Gigabyte even has instructions on how to remove the backside crazy cool heatsinks for cpu heatsink mounting.

I don't know this from experience, but I have been reading a lot in the forums, and it seems to me that the Arctic Cooling PWM fan has been recieved better. I have one on the way.

The new 7K200 series Hitachi's are about as fast as the last gen 500 and 250 gig 3.5 drives, nothing to scoff at.

If you plan on watching HD-DVD or Blu-Ray eventually with this card, you should get at least the nVidia 8600 or ATI 2600 series of cards for proper decode acceleration and optimal image quality. The 8400, 8500, and 8600 should all be the same in this aspect shouldn't they? I like the looks of the X...

You said "teats." Generally referred to as rubber or silicon fan mounts.

how do you feel the air flow of the Noctura's are?

Nice job. Though I must say you must have some kind of super hearing because I have two NeoHE 430s and both are silent.

Maybe you had a bad fan?

I would get a board with DDR2. No reason to blow the extra money on DDR3 right now. So if you get DDR2, CAS3 at the minimum.b Gigabytes fan control is OK. Asus is Qfan good. Abit Fan EQ is better. However, as stated, if Speedfan supports your board, you can do these functions via software. I persona...

I have some Asus "quietrack" drives. They are fine when not spun up, but like any drive, they are noticeable when spun. However, compared to say the Lite On drives I have had, they are not bad. Those Lite On's are unbearable.

I have my Ultra Extreme for sale in the Deals section. While it's certainly a good cooler, I did not care for the mounting on the socket 775, it allows for the HS to wiggle.

The hestsink is rarely warm to the touch. In her old case it was. Her machine is on 24/7, no issues.

Only other comment I can think of, if baby likes to hang out there, be careful when she's a little older & stronger, she could pull it down on top of herself by accident That's my youngest in the picture. The older one who likes to look at it knows not to poke or pull on the PC. my sister wanted th...

Just completed a upgrade of my wife's PC. Her previous case was in a purple Chieftec Dragon that she has had since I first built her a computer 5 years ago before we were married. It was difficult to cool quietly, and honestly, just too honking big. Her only requirements were that the new case be pr...

They only reviewed the SATA1.5. It would be interesting to see what the SATA3.0 tests out as. Newegg only has the 1.5 models.

Googling the model numbers for the 3.0 versions don't come up with much of anything except for the 200 gig version.
