Hi All, I lost the I/O-Shield of my intel DP45SG motherboard and I would like to get a new one. However checking the intel website I found that they dont offer the sale of that specific part anymore. http://click.intel.com/ProductDetails.aspx?id=1220 Part number: E30162-001 My question; does...

Hi Screwysqrl and HeyImGodly, thanks for your replies. Getting the 570 instead of the 470 will significantly increase the total price of the computer while I actually would like to lower the price. For the motherboard i'll follow your advise and change to ASUS M4A87TD EVO AM3 AMD 870 SATA...

Hi All, As the title says I need a new computer for graphical rendering (more detailed explanation below) The thing is that I dont exactly know what to look for, do I need a SSD so I can store the cache on it instead of in RAM or do I need a Graphics card with loads of RAM or should I look for...

Hey Janis, Thanks for your reply, I am still having problems with my mobo+OCZ combo, I have tried two sticks of OCZ platinum and 2 sticks of OCZ gold and both run unstable. I have tried 2 sticks of Corsair and it worked like a charm. I'll try your trick but I cant understand how upping the CPU...

well Frozenlead I actually agree with Michael here. You are right that opening a laptop and checking its hdd connection is quite easy, however for someone that doesnt know what ' no boot device' meens it sounds like not suchs a good idea, especially if there is no knowledge about warrantee...

Ah yes, the great thing about the netherlands is that everyone speaks english, the bad thing is: everyone speaks english so you'll never learn dutch ;) Anyways I adjusted the memory voltage to 1,6 and prime95 ran suprisingly well, however not well enough. Bios-Settings Dram Timing Selectable...

*Sob*

I hate bumping my own topics but does no-one have a clue about this?

hmmm, I tend to agree with Paperdoc, the motherboard can probaply cut it but then again why would you want it to? The good thing about connecting it to the motherboard is that you can see how fast it spins and that the motherboard can adjust it's speed. You cannot see how fast it spins and you...

what you need is one of these: http://pan.fotovista.com/dev/6/9/02334796/l_02334796.jpg Its a simple molex to fan adapter and come standard with loads of cases (I bet most hardware stores sell them for like 3 to 5 bucks.

A good rule of thumb when buying anything in the world (IMHO) is to never buy the cheapest thing available, always go one or two levels up. Besides that I think both posters above have got valid points, cheap card can work just fine but then again usually there is a reason that they are cheap...
