    SLI motherboard question

    I want to set up a quick test linux system. Mostly been using XP pro with nfs software on it. These are backup systems (i.e. HP-UX machines nfs mount directories to backup data to). Question: Can I use a SLI MB (say ASUS M2N-SLI) and put one cheap video card in one PCI-E x16 slot and a...

    Socket 939 Compatibility Question

    Oh... Thanks, never even looked at the reviews... You are right, they don't look good... The only other brand newegg has right now is Tyan... Some of the reviews on them don't look too good either, sigh....

    Socket 939 Compatibility Question

    I have all the parts (except a motherboard) to put together a new system, based around a socket 939 CPU.... But I can't find a socket 939 board anywhere in the world! It is for work so I can't really do e-bay (just don't want to go thru the expense report stuff)... At newegg.com, they...

    KN9 SLI RAID 5 question

    I tried setting up 6, 750GB drives on my ABIT NK9 SLI, nforce 570 MB today.... To my surprise, in the BIOS RAID setup screen, after creating the array, it says the max size is 1.47TB... Any idea what is causing that?? I would have expected something like: 5 (usable) x 750GB = 3.75TB (give...

    Rebuilding raid stripe on a new mobo

    My experience is this. If you replace with the same motherboard, same chipset, same BIOS, same placement of connectors, you should have no problem seeing the drives pop right back up in their original state. You start messing with changing to a new chip set or say a higher BIOS rev, all bets...

    How do I stop this when I boot up? A8n-sli Premium.

    But if you do that, then I think the whole controller is turned off. The person said they still want to use the SATA ports, just not the RAID function. In all my days, I have never seen a way of turning this off unless you want it completely turned off...

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    As with everthing computers, and now I know were are aiming for soapbox stuff here, everyone has a different opinion of how things should work. For me, my ears can not distingush between what some people call good sound and some call bad. I just hear sound. For example, a $5.00 bottle of wine...

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    Thank you, that is the most clearly worded answer I have seen in a long time! I really did not expect that though, every board I have bought in the last 3 years with on board sound has had 6 connectors, did not know they were switching to auto-sense... So, I know you can buy a pci sound card...

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    Ok, one more time, I know that 5.1 speakers have 3 cables, I own them.... If you look at the picture on Newegg for the board we are talking about in this thread, there are 3 connectors in which to plug in 3 wires.... Let me change my question and say it this way.... If we are to assume that...

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    I still am not sure I am getting my question across correctly.... Is it not normal to have 6 wires to connect??? 3 for the speakers and the other 3 for line-in, line-out and mic???

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    I know the colors, but I have 6 wires in question, 3 wires are for the speakers and 3 wires for line-in, line-out, and mic... If there are only 3 connectors on the motherboard, how can I plug 6 wires into 3 connectors???? That is the root of question, the pictures on Newegg's site only show 3...

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    Right, that gives you the output to the speakers, but what I am asking is where are the other 3, line-in, line-out, and mic???

    DFI has released it's LanParty UT nF3 Ultra D

    I already own the s754 version of this board, love it to death and I still love my AGP card, so this new board looks like my next choice... That said... Upon looking at the pictures on Newegg's site of this new board, I see that it only has 3 audio connections on the back of the MB, my current...

    Heatsink for DFI UT3, possibly XP-90

    I just bought the DFI UT3, with a 3400+ CPU... I have a XP-120 from another system that is not set up, so I tried installing it on this system. I can not get the XP-120 installed on this MB, since one of the corners of the lockdown clip is about 2mm away from the 12V connector... Anyone else...
