Got a really good review, that and the fact that it supported pci express and agp meant i wouldn't have to replace my vid card as soon as id thought.

Whats so good about that setup? I'm not familiar with the difference between the regular AMD 64 and x2 and the AMD Opteron.[/quote:3f56d]

this site gives a quick view at the diffrent types of amd cpu's

r.i.p x800xt-pe cry:

Using this 6800gt right now, shimmer vision is sooo nice on the eyes. oOo:

Sooner i can get my new shit the better.

see piece of shit died.

Actually it was that pos motherboard that took it out, mad:

rofl gg assrock boards. And you guys tell me gigabyt sucks happy:

Getting a dfi board soon..and sending a virus to your pc. eek:

SECKS ME! beer:

dfi ftw

Im going for the DFI LanParty UT NF4 Ultra-D. ONly thing im slightly concerned about is ive read of a few people having trouble plugging in their gf cards since the northbridge fan is right a the end of the pci-e slots, then again some others have said it fit perfectly and their cards sit a few mm above it.

Pretty weird place for a chipset hsf. eek:

^ the best MOBO available, right? I don't even know how to compare MOBOs. eek: oOo:

Dunno if its the best available but its probably one of the better ones, seems to allow pretty high overclocks.

You alright there geRV??????????????????????

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha roflmlfao !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! happy: biggrin:

oOo:

Chipset doesn't interfer with cards at all. It doesn't even come close to hitting the bottom of a card. The only bad thing about the placement is that is gets all the heat from your video cards.

Well ive seen a few people post that their x1800 actually wouldn't slot in properly because of the chipset cooler. They re-seated their motherboards and 1 of them got it fitted, the others was still interfering with it.

Anybody that uses ZoneAlarm firewall.

I seem to run into this problem alot, when my pc is idle and goes to the screensaver or monitor shuts off, when I resume use, zonealarm doesnt allow ANYTHING to connect, I see the red bar flash constantly, I check and nothing is locked as far as email or internet access.

anybody run into this/know a fix/know another free alternative for a firewall?

Good or Bad?

DFI LANParty UT RDX200 Radeon Xpress 200 Crossfire

I'm lookin and this is the only DFI mobo I see on a here: http://www.gamepc.com/shop/custom.asp?rig=titan300

I really would only plan on getting ONE ATI Radeon X1900 XTX

Is that MOBO necessary? eek: oOo:

Its a decent mobo from what ive read but the usb transfer rates are meant to be bad on it. That radeon express chipset hasn't exactly the best reputation with most of the hardware sites either, although a new improved version of it is coming this month sometime (rd 580).

Better off with a DFI LanParty UT NF4 Ultra-D, or wait to see how the rd580 performs.

how do I check my PSU's wattage? I am upgrading my graphics card from a 5200 to a 5900 XT.
