    Looking at Routers and NICs

    I'm looking for a router that is capable of handling a lott of simultaneous connections. It doesn't have to have the most internal througput, just has to be able to direct packets from multiple wan sources efficiently. I do a lot of filesharing and nice nice to not have to be limited in the...

    D link or linksys wired router???

    I have used about 15 DI-604s and they are great for the price. I had a Linksys BEFSR41 and it kept dying on me, replaced it with another and had same problem. Units were becoming very very warm to the touch. Mind you I file share like crazy and I set my max connections, simultaneous connection...

    Maxtor 16mb on an AMD system? Also SATA vs 133?

    Alright, I guess I'm just biased. I don't like my pata 6B200R0 from them which is 200gb 16mb 7200.

    Maxtor 16mb on an AMD system? Also SATA vs 133?

    I see it as both 100gb and 133gb platter design on different sites. I don't know why,

    Maxtor 16mb on an AMD system? Also SATA vs 133?

    The 74gb raptor is hands down the best non scsi drive there is. AFAIK for NCQ being supported by intel only that's false, however, you do need an NCQ capable host adapter/controller and correct me if I'm wrong someone, but I don't think the nForce3-250/gb's included south bridge supports it. I...

    2 sticks=fast, 4 sticks=slow

    Best option is to get 2 1gb sticks. I know it's obviously more money per unit of RAM, but it's always easier on the processor. Even the newer cores have a harder time with 4 sticks, you can get them stable at 400 but have an extremely hard time overclocking. Whereas with 2 sticks you have an...

    Dead TwinMOS SP

    I'm sure it's to evaluate pricing and marketing. Like test a certain price and see if they make more money due to volume or whatever, chiefvalue also has those daily deals which I appreciate. Newegg probably still gets more than 80% of customers between the two so they can try more drastic...

    s754: Which non ocign board: cheapest/most stable?

    I really like this mobo: http://www.chiefvalue.com/app/productdetails.asp?submit=search&item=13-152-043 . It's the one I use personally and used it for another guy without any problems. It does overclock pretty well, I know you said non OC but the possibility is there just as an FYI. I got it to...

    Dead TwinMOS SP

    BTW Newegg only has 8 left as of this moment :P I also tried something out which I thought was pretty cool. I ordered the maximum at Newegg and found that they only had 12 left and then I went to chiefvalue.com and found out they only had 12 left. I ordered 4 from newegg and then checked...

    How big a difference would I experience from 1.8 ghz to 3.0 ghz?

    I find that everyday applications are more enhanced by hard drive and memory than processor. Depending what kind of application you're using, I'd opt for faster hard drive and more memory before I would a new cpu. If you're still using Plain Ol' SDRAM, an upgrade to DDR would certainly be a...

    MFM Hard Drive Adapter (Guru's Advice Please)

    Hi, I'm in the need for know-how. I'm a PC Technician and have been for 3 years now. MFM, however, is a drive interface technology that I'm ignorant to. I have a customer that uses these drives on a regular basis for his equipment. He's a technician for some sort of industrial automation...

    ASUS MB Not Recognizing CPU?

    I think your motherboard doesn't know how to do math... try a different timing and see if it's math gets better... 165 x13 multiplier or similar. 13x166 is 2,167. I don't know what there is to try other than reseating the processor.
