The APC UPS is a little small for a computer but may be worth picking up anyway if you live in an area where the power goes out in the spring thunderstorms.
Plug a lamp with a CFL light bulb into it. When the power goes out you'll still have light in one room. With a low draw CFL it will...
I don't remember the exact breakpoints but a power supply is more efficient when it is running between ~50-75%.(Don't quote or hold me to those numbers but the gist of the statement is true)
The lower % of its output that it runs the less efficient a power supply is.
Battlefield 1942 and HD3870 using Cat 7.11 has a problem.
Error message of " A debugger has been detected" on start up of game. Apparently the safedisk copy protection has a problem with the latest drivers. You can't roll back to earlier versions because they don't support the HD38X0...

It activates the copy protection and won't let it run. With a 3870 you can't use drivers earlier then 7.11 so it's unplayable.

What is the voltage supplied in China? Is it 115Vac or 220?
If you look at this picture, http://www.newegg.com/Product/...-2DB+500W+Power+Supply

Battlefield 1942 will not run under 7.11 or the Sapphire drivers that came with my HD3870
An error message of
"A debugger has been detected"
"Unload the debugger and try again"
appears.

Just a note to check your e-mails.
I just got a shipping notice for my E4500.
Only need a new hard drive now and I'll be building next week.
$70 IP-35E
$9.95/gig four gig HP 667 Ram

not bad, thanks to all the hot deal posters.
Perhaps ATI/AMD could have brought out an ultra-high end card which sold for around $500 which means only the top few percent of gamers could afford to buy it.
Instead they bring out a mid-priced card which the market has sorely been lacking in for the last couple of years. It uses less...
Won't be long.

I'm hoping the 3870 comes down a little, that's more then what I was hoping it would be.
Ordered the E4500 this morning.
Got the 'it's on backorder' notice this afternoon.
