• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Habanos Torres, Corona

    Yeah ZZF is definitely for those who know what they want. I've been using them over NewEgg for just about everything now. Anyway, overclocking is fairly simple and with those components it should be fairly easy. Although, the stock CPU heatsink/fan will allow for some modest overclocking, a new...

    Made me laugh. I cross posted it at FISB, then again there is a distinct left slant over there.

    If you want an ATI flavored video card then I recommend one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010380048+4017+50001561+106790809+1068509619&Subcategory=48&description=&Ntk=&srchInDesc=

    Tom, are you going to be over-clocking? I put this list together thinking you would. I still would switch to ZZF. Anyway, I'll play on NewEgg. Core 2 Duo E4300 - $169 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115013 Good budget processor, lower FSB than 6300 and over-clocks...

    Musical Guilty Pleasure.....

    I ain't ashamed of my old school rap taste, I grew up with that stuff. I have to admit though, I occasionally enjoy some Joseph Arthur.

    What's your sound system?

    indyrob it sounds to me like you would be at home over at http://www.audiokarma.org/ . Anyway, the current setup is a Toshiba DVD player to a Marantz TA-100 which then goes to a pair of Fisher DS-825s and a pair of JBL 82Ts.

    Oh and Tom, something else I thought up. Are you in university at the moment? Most universities have a deal with M$ so that Winders is only like $10 or something. If you work, you may want to check if your company is a Microsoft partner, sometimes, employers have a deal similar to the universities.

    Tom, using NewEgg I came up with a somewhat different parts list. Unlike ZipZoomFly, NewEgg doesn't have free shipping on everything so the total is without shipping. I'm just posting the component and the part no. so you can search it out and look for yourself. http://www.newegg.com/ LG 18X...

    Right now, Intel holds the performance crown. I'd wait until AMD's Barcelona hits the market if I were you. As far as 2D performance on a video card... I'm told by my photographer friends that ATI/AMD makes the best for 2D other than Matrox.

    The processor and motherboard are not compatible. Socket AM2 is a 940 pin socket IIRC and not compatible with Socket 939.
