Wait for Haswell.
And after you are done waiting, don't skimp on the Haswell CPU that you do ultimately purchase or else you'll just be back to where you are now thinking about upgrading a part that you shouldn't need to be upgrading.
Though I doubt this topic would be considered highly technical, I'll give this one recommendation:
Restart your PC and after POST, enter the BIOS.
Check the BIOS version and see if it's the same version prior to disconnect.
If you don't know what version was installed prior to...
A quality PSU can make all the difference.
For example, I have what I consider to be a great supply in this rig here. It's a Silverstone st50 something er other...been a while since I checked. Anyways, without it being plugged into any sort of UPS or conditioner, during brown out moments...
If the home has an attic space above the ceiling, you may very well need to go up in to inspect junction points as was already mentioned, but I don't know if you understood where the location of these splits would be.
If you want to figure this out without spending money then will require...
I'm so glad to see another air cooler roundup, since as the OP mentioned they rarely come around anymore what with all the hype and popularity of AIO water cooling.
It's a shame too that for many years there hasn't actually been what I would call a comprehensive roundup review.
I just want...
Another good place to check would be grow shops....you know....indoor hydroponics. I had a friend fabricate a custom square to round transition mentioned above. Was used to bring fresh outside air to a large industrial air conditioner. There weren't any local hvac/grow shops with a large...
I still drool over this almost every night.....waiting for the next enthusiast platform and now thinking I should test the waters with a small build before going whole hog on 3d vision surround with 30" accessory/primary for second system.
As of now this chassis is still at top of my list for...
That's the one.
I have just such a build in the back of my mind but three reasons why I wouldn't do it now:
1. The three systems currently running that two mITX boards in a single chassis would replace don't actually need to be upgraded yet and are not in the way or audible.
2. I don't...
I know nothing about the ECS board other than it is black/white. Probably too old anyways considering what you already have...but on looks alone it would be a decent match.
That gigabyte board you are looking seems to fit the bill and I was checking it out yesterday for myself but decided...
Ever since I saw the Azza 4000 super tower I've been itching to do a dual system build to consolidate the PCs floating around the house and making lots of noise.
The case calls me in my sleep and begs to be modded.
The time to build is 'just around the corner' and now the Azza 4000 is no...
You might be able to find a local automotive painter to do it for you. They are used to working on huge chunks of metal so a little PC case should be cakewalk for painters that know how to use air brush too.
It was never about the specific NIC. I have every intention of installing a pci-e x1 ethernet controller regardless of onboard brand but would actually use both at the same time.
I don't buy anything without knowing as much as possible beforehand, and given what I now know the decision was...
I don't know if this board has what your looking for as far as specs go but I saw this during my own research:

Well....after all that I take a final look at my choices and realize that for the first time ever I'm not finding a motherboard to fit my needs.
I've been tinkering with hardware for almost thirty years since the c64 and building my own rigs starting with 386sx16 but never had so much trouble...
