Thanks for the suggestions. I plan on putting this build in a SILVERSTONE SG03-B case. I am not that familiar with the matx m/b's let alone the mini itx m/b's. The matx board will fit fine in the SILVERSTONE SG03-B. Would there be any benefit in using a mini itx board versus a matx board if the...

Hello everybody. I have a spare Q6600 GO laying on my desk. I had replaced it with a Q9450. I was seriously thinking of building a SFF system using the Q6600. I did some research on matx boards but did not come up with much of a selection. Could somebody please recommend a matx board that can...

RickDStik, The Aspire Q-pack case your using normally comes with a PSU. Were you able to find one without a PSU? Thanks

Hello everybody. I was trying to calibrate realtemp by setting my bios to the default (no O/C) settings. I set my cpu voltage at 1.1. Which I know is too low. When I rebooted My comp would not post. The Screen stays in the stby mode. I rebooted several times with no success. I then cleared the...

I will go with 4 gigs then I will be ready for Vista when the time comes. Thanks again.

Thanks for the response! So I understand adding a 3rd stick would probably effect my mem performance. Therefore it best to add another set like I have? I never ran this much ram. Would the 2 sets still run in dual channel mode? Thank You

I plan on upgrading my sys. cpu in my sig to a Q9450. I was also considering increasing my memory. I run XP. Can I get any suggestions on what and how much mem would be feasible. Thank You.
