Cooler Master Hyper 212 $17.99

Great heatsink. Allows you to mount vertically or horizontally on AM3 sockets. Cools very well, too.

PNY GeForce 8800GTS Video Card, PCI Express, 320MB, $279.99 (AR), SHIPPED

Looks like it's actually $299 after instant and mail-in rebates. Still not too bad if you're looking to get into the 8800-series. Tax would kill any chance at a hot deal, though. Better to watch for a deal on the 640MB part for $350-ish.

Does the P5B-Deluxe work with Antec 900 Case

Fry's was still selling the rev. 1 cases as recently as a few weeks ago. I bought one and wasn't lucky enough to get the rev. 2 case. I am not sure if they have pulled the rev. 1 stock and now have only rev. 2 but Antec is being extremely cool about this and sending out the newer bare chassis...

C2D/MoBo for 2x1Gb Crucial 10th 3-3-3-12

I'm really enjoying my EVGA 680i board. I haven't experienced any of the problems that others are reporting (knock on wood) and the latest P24 BIOS has allowed me to hit 3.4GHz with my E6400. I'm still testing and will be moving it up hoping to hit 3.6GHz but I'm pretty happy with the current OC...

P5N-E Issues.

Sorry to hear about your probs, Ed. If you check out the user reviews of your RAM at newegg, you'll see that many people had sticks die shortly after installing them. Corsair is aware of the problem and posting replies to the negative reviews at newegg. I'd RMA the memory and hope to get better...

How come everyone hates McDonalds?

I love McDonald's, especially the McRib. I wish they weren't retiring it!

Intel's latest offerings are your best bet (the dual-core "E" series). Check out comparisons for yourself in this AT article.

TigerDirect has the Bad Axe 2 for 199

I think he was talking about the original Bad Axe and not the "2" version. There is a debug "mod" that you can do with a conductive pen on that board.

EVGA 680i HSF compatibility

I'm using the Thermaltake Big Typhoon (with backplate) on the 680i in an Antec Nine Hundred case and it works fine. CPU temps are 32C idle and 43C running Orthos (E6400 running 8x400 @ 1.3V). The backplate does cover a couple of chips on the underside of the board, but the foam piece you apply...

Battlefield 2 or battlefield 2142?

I hadn't played BF2 in probably 10 months so i reinstalled it last night and played a couple of rounds for grins. Trust me, there is no doubt that 2142 is what you should be spending your hard-earned cash on. The graphics and sound are at least twice as good in 2142 and the gameplay is really...

I got a new monitor...

I don't even notice it anymore. ;) Buy it from a reputable e-tailer (or local store) so you'll have the option of returning it if it isn't for you. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how incredible it is if you'll take a few days to get used to the coating. Edit: Forgot to mention that...

Intel D975XBX2 Bad Axe 2 BIOS Freezing - Initial problem solved (?)

Good stuff, moosey! Nice to see some of the USB ports don't seem to cause the freezing, too. My interest in the board has definitely been rekindled, especially after reading a post in another forum with a response one user received from Intel about the HD LED: "We have a BIOS fix pending for...
