    Crosshair IV Extreme (updated??)

    I personally don't care about the heat pipe design because with my gfx cards, it won't really be visible anyway. Definitely getting this as soon as it's released! Ooooohhh, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait.......:)

    Need to find secondary/supplementary PSU

    Where the F*** was that thing when I was looking around for PSU's? I bought the largest one I could find at the time. Never even seen that one before. Well, that certainly is one viable option. Anyone want to buy a slightly used Enermax Galaxy?

    Need to find secondary/supplementary PSU

    No, I have plenty of molex connectors that I can plug into the PSU, I just want to alleviate some of the load on this PSU because the GTX480's are so power hungry. The supplementary PSU's I've found are also not enough to power the GTX480's. I may also run the water pump on PSU1, but I at least...

    Got some questions about water cooling accessories.

    So I'm about ready to pull the trigger on my water cooling, but want to make sure I'm getting the best stuff I can. I think I've got my VGA waterblocks picked out, but need advice on getting the best possible water pump and 3x120 rad. I'm going to be getting some pretty mean fans(highest cf/m I...

    Need to find secondary/supplementary PSU

    I'm in need of an additional power supply for my system, and was wondering if there is anything out there that will fit my needs. Right now I have an Enermax Galaxy 1250w PSU which does a good job, but I'm going to be adding water cooling, and I want something to power the water pump/s and...

    Need New Mobo/memory. Have some questions.

    So I'm trying to build one of the best gaming computers I can, while still sticking with an AMD setup(next one will probably be Intel). I've so far got the largest PSU I could find, tri-SLI GTX480's, AMD 1090T, a case that could fit a mack truck, and will be going all watercooling very soon...

    GTX 460 SLI or GTX 480?

    I totally agree! Plus SLI GTX480's just look sick side-by-side.

    Will damage result from using a cpu with higher wattage than board rating?

    Thanks for the advice guys. Going to contact newegg about a return. Already found a different board that specifically states that it's 140w compatible.

    Will damage result from using a cpu with higher wattage than board rating?

    Not that I don't believe you, but does anyone else think he'll be ok with this setup???

    Will damage result from using a cpu with higher wattage than board rating?

    I've already updated to the latest BIOS for the board from the ASUS website. I still get the same message. So I gather from what you're all saying, that it would be best to try to get a different board? This is for a buddy, and it's primary use is going to be for gaming. I just don't want him to...

    Will damage result from using a cpu with higher wattage than board rating?

    So, I just sold a buddy of mine my old AMD Phenom 9950 x4 black edition 2.6 ghz processor, and we perused newegg looking for an inexpensive board that he could use with it. We decided on the Asus M4A785-M as it supports AM3/AM2+/AM2 socket processors from the Phenom II / Phenom / Athlon II /...

    Finally got pics of my new Corsair 800D

    I know the feeling about wanting to be different, I'm the sam way, but you know after seeing this case, I don't care if everyone else on the planet had the same one, I would still get it. It's built just perfect for me. I don't think I could find anything to improve on. :cool:

    Finally got pics of my new Corsair 800D

    I freakin love this case. I'll love it even more when I get my liquid cooling set up installed. Looks kinda barren right now. Way too much empty space. :D http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k135/pdvannatta/DSC00616.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k135/pdvannatta/DSC00615.jpg...
