also, the cord for the onboard audio wont reach the place that it plugs into... anything I can do to fix this?

if your front side usbs from your case arent plugged in properly, it could kill the mobo. I had it happen to two of mine cry:

3rd pic connection is a 2nd mobo power connection

4th connection is power for a floppy drive

Forte 03-01-2006 06:44 PM

thanks. how can I tell if they are plugged in properly?

Forte 03-01-2006 08:01 PM

okay, I finished. everything is installed. plugged up what should have been plugged into the power supply. I just cant bring myself to plug in the keyboard/monitor and press power.

Jin-Roh 03-01-2006 08:39 PM

just shit in it.. the bacteria will repair anything and everything it touches when it comes to computer

Akuma 03-01-2006 11:42 PM

power it on!

as long as you have the case power switch plugged in correctly you are good to go.

That DFI board isn't crossfire enabled, the DFI LanParty UT RDX200CF-DR Crossfire is the board you;re looking for, although the new rossfire chipset is due out very soon and is much better.

Thinking about going with this barebone asus then building on top from there
http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products ... _uid=95028

good/bad idea? I know its limited to 1 pci slot and will need to go sata hd way but is it good enough to slap a decent athlon, 256mb ati x800 and 1 gig of ram in it? Plus it says mini tower but im confused as if it uses a normal motherboard or the smaller ones like in the shuttles?

elstatec 03-02-2006 01:33 PM

and with that memory 'DDR400 DIMM Up to 2 GB' and im usually used to hearing 3200, is this a bad thing or good?

elstatec 03-02-2006 03:52 PM

actually stfu me, decided on this, any opinions on it before i buy?

350 wat psu eek:

elstatec 03-02-2006 05:36 PM

350w psu is very adequte, im not aiming for crossfire, dual processors and 1235235 internal fans, plus its a MiniTower pc so guess what the recommended 'As for total wattage, buy a unit that matches the size of your system: MiniTower=350w,MidTower=380w, FullTower=450w and ServerTower=550w.'



anyway my final list ignoring the dvdr wireless and hd that were thrown in there to estimate final price.

I think i have a 450 watt PSU. My old 300 watt got blowed up.
