Which Asus P5 model?

I am comparing the different Asus P5 motherboards and wondering which model would provide the best quality and performance for my budget. The Asus P5 mobo series have so many models that they are confusing. I plan to build a PC with an Intel E8500 or E8600 within the next month or so. I...

What's a good Core 2 Duo/Quad motherboard for $180?

I meant reliability and durability. I want the mobo to be reliable and durable. I've never used anything other than original Intel mobos, so I don't know if Asus or Gigabytes makes durable mobos. I don't want the system/mobo to die on me in three or four years, or give me all sorts of...

What's a good Core 2 Duo/Quad motherboard for $180?

I would like to buy a better mobo because if I want upgrade to a better CPU, I can always easily replace the CPU. However, if I want to upgrade to a better mobo, that means I will have to replace the whole system and reinstall the whole OS. I'm not even sure if I will be able to buy or...

What's a good Core 2 Duo/Quad motherboard for $180?

I've expanded my search to ALL top manufacturers and not just Asus. I've also increased my budget to around $180. I really like Asus P5K, but I just want to look at if I can get a significantly better mobo with a different brand and an additional $30. If not, then I'll go for the P5K...

What's a good Core 2 Duo/Quad motherboard for $180?

Someone from another forum recommended ASUS P5W DH Deluxe because it's a Core 2 Duo board, and it's only a little above my budget of $150. How does P5W compared to P5K? Remember: I'm not going to overclock. So any extra going to the benefits of overclocking is just a waste of money in my...

Laptops: How Often Do the Hardware Break?

Do these things break often at all? For a desktop, if it breaks I know how to fix it. However, for a laptop, it's trickier. How's the quality of laptops nowadays? Do they break down often (i.e., the hardware)? What's the chances of getting a defective unit (much more likely than a...

unfalliblekrutch: "Also, i'd recommened going with a 12 - 14 inch laptop. 15+ inches is NOT mobile." It's not?!? Well, I do plan to use the laptop as my primary computer, so I will be spending a lot of time on it -- that's almost every night, 4 to 5 a night, and probably up to 8 hours if I...

I am looking to buy my first laptop. I have never dealt with a laptop or notebook PC, so I would appreciate any advice you guys can share with me. In the past, I have always built my own PCs and install the operating systems, so I am quite knowledgeable about desktop PCs. However, I am...

HP DeskJet 648c $44.99 after discount + rebate

Cheap printers but expensive ink cartridges. We still pay more in the long run. What's the point? Is there any good models out there that use really cheap ink catridges?
