<0> not really
<1> Mouse: depends what you are doing and how much tweaking you want to do
<0> but i didn't have this problem before
<2> I'm playing a game called Eve Online.
<0> with this motherboard
<2> In otherwords: playing games
<1> then I'd suggest AMD
<2> Why?
<1> better gaming performance for the buck
<2> Too bad I already have a P4 mainboard :(
<2> I have 1.6ghz in it atm
<2> was planning on getting me a 3ghz prescott
<2> because my mainboard supports it
<1> well... that might not be a bad idea
<2> Too bad they cost money
<3> okay so when I use my microphone through the speakers it comes out loud and clear.. when I try to talk in other programs it gives out a high buzzing sound
<4> Don Knotts died. :/
<5> yea
<5> say goodbye to Barney Fife
<6> anyonw know which retail store has cheapest DVDs usually?
<6> best buy, wal mart, circuit city?
<5> walmart
<7> marky, you still therE
<6> hrmm
<6> they dont have a huge selection though
<6> i think best buy usualllly has good prices but im not positive
<5> i dunno
<5> i just get mine at walmart
<4> sometimes they have sales at those stores
<4> otherwise shop4tech.com has good deals and free shipping usually
<5> yes
<5> very good place to buy media
<6> shop4tech is?
<5> ya
<4> yera
<6> they ship same day usually?
<4> yeah usually
<4> they're good.
<6> i need them by..
<6> tuesday ;p
<4> hmm that might not be easy since its friday
<6> well i mean i dont mind paying for overnight
<6> IF they save me money
<6> but i doubt that
<6> not enough to justify overnight
<4> well if you ordered them overnight today and they're in cali you might have them by monday
<6> waiiit
<6> im talking about DVD MOVIES
<6> not dvd blanks :P
<4> OHHH
<6> lol
<4> hah
<4> netflix - one day turnaround. :D
<5> lol
<6> noo
<5> ya
<4> just print out labels and buy a dvd case. haha
<6> i want to own
<5> or blockbuster online
<5> you can
<5> you can rent an copy an own
<5> lol
<4> if you want a dvd movie quickly, then just go to best buy or compusa or something
<6> wtf
<6> what was my quit message?
<5> * ChefWill has quit IRC
<6> lol whoops
<6> i accidentally clicked disconnect
<6> so best buy, staples, walmart...whos usually cheapest on dvd movies?
<6> er not staples
<6> CC
<4> i dunno, they're all probably about the same. they use the same distributers and carry similar profit margins. . . so...
<4> a dollar here a dollar there. . .
<4> not much difference between the big box retailers
<6> yea
<6> sometimes
<4> i find you can get better deals at smaller mom and pops places and video stores now and then
<6> well i plan on buying a good 3-4 movies tonight
<7> where can find a good guide on how much wattage various components draw?
<7> specifically, i need to know how much wattage each SATA drive will take
<4> just use a voltmeter
<4> on one
<4> and multiply by # of drives
<4> just go to a local electrician shop or something and ask him to do you a favor
<7> i suppose
<7> i don't really want to connect anything to a hard drive while its running
<4> but generally if you're going ot run 16 drives you might need to look beyond consumer and enthusiast power supplies
<7> the manufactuere says 7-40W
<4> why? you won't damage the drive.
<7> they aren't my drives
<7> i built them for my friend's business
<7> it's got a few years of backup on there
<7> can you link to me to where i can find a good ATX-compatible case and PS that will support this beast?
<7> i've built a ton of PCs before, but nothing this big
<4> you might need to look into a rack
<7> i'd prefer to do a big ole ATX tower
<7> or a double-wise
<7> *wide
<4> http://www.attro.com/ch***is/E460.htm
<4> 950w psu in that.
<4> hot swappable
<4> that was just a random google for a 4u ch***is
<4> but I would't recommend throwing 16 drives into a consumer box
<7> i was planning on using this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811112094
<7> plenty of room in there
<4> ok lian li is decent.
<7> and that will fit 16 drives easy
<4> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817703003
<7> $500!
<4> that's about as entry-level of a PSU i'd recommend for 16 drives
<4> dude, you're going to run 16 drives.
<4> an OCZ rebadge with a paintjob isn't gonna cut it
<4> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104015
<7> lol
<4> that's as LOW as I'd go
<4> you can't build a professional system for mission critical work with compusa 'overclocker' aisle parts.
<7> true enough
<7> I've always bough Enermax
<7> a few Antecs . .
<7> and it's 500W for $150
<4> i mean, you go to any major corporation, their dedicated server room has 4u racks with hotswappable, redundant PSUs
<4> that **** costs thousands
<7> this doesn't need to be 99.9%
<4> climate controlled room, etc.
<7> and it will prolly run in my living room
<7> i was figuring on buying a 1000W UPS that will auto-shutdown the computer on power failure
<7> "shutdown -s -f -t 01"
<7> he he
<6> is flight plan a good movie?
<7> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104126
<4> that would probably provide enough juice, i just have no experience with Athena Power.
<7> http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050922/REVIEWS/50921001/1023
<7> the highest Enermax does is 660W
<7> it's just a bit-barrel
<8> i watched flight plane last night
<6> is it good?
<6> thats where the daugher disappears
<8> its pretty good, nothing special, but it was worth the money
<6> worth buying the dvd?
<7> rent it
<8> yeah it was alright
<6> eh
<6> i hate renting
<6> cause like
<6> im busy during the end and starts of a week and not in the middle
<6> and then i forget and take it back one night and then i dont for several nights
<7> get a flex plan
<7> blockbusterdoes them for pretty cheap
<6> blah
<6> netflix is like
<7> it's like $15/mo
