DFI is still in business they just havn't made any consumer boards in a long time. Not sure if they will ever build a consumer board again. Love to see a DFI X68 board.

I may end up selling this card soon. I just got it. I won it over at Hardforum part of a MSI give away. If I keep it I will take off that plastic wrap.

Is the first pic some bioses? If yes - sexy since easy to change.

The caps in pic 2 and 3 are sexy to me since they have no "break lines" ontop of them so that they leak even easier.
Hard to believe some companies use the easy to break ones mainly - might be better though if you use the cheapest caps on the market only to safe money and screw more customers. IMHO..

Looking good but when you think about it the chipset could suffer greatly from lack of air in multi GPU setups - is this true?
You know for sure since I´v seen your mega-rigs.

All the pics are from the Asus Xonar DS sound card I have. I upgraded the Op-Amp on the board. The first pic shows the old Op-Amp (on the right) and the new one (on the left).

mlee49 · Mar 28, 2011, 07:53 PM

Wish I could snap a picture of my brother's old Mini-disc player and disc collection. It was crazy awkward but 'revolutionary' at the time.

Googling shows they can be bought new for $200, LOL!

johnnyfiive · Mar 28, 2011, 10:04 PM

I still think laser disc's have some of the best sound in movies. Same opinion goes for vinyl. Theres just something about the rawness of vinyl that makes them sound better than CD's or even lossless audio formats. Old technology isn't always inferior to newer, sometimes production methods and savings are what retire perfectly awesome stuff. I miss beta tapes too.. lol

HammerON · Mar 28, 2011, 10:11 PM

I still have my laser disc player and some of the LD movies
