Looking for the best P4 HSF and PSU.

If $ no object, then top P4 cooling now is probably Thermalright SLK-900 w/ 92 Tornado fan (loud) or for quieter solution (still powerful) new Zalman cu7000. For PSU most people will tell you PC Power & Cooling PSUs have the tightest specs and can be ordered w/ adj. pots (look @ the specs on...

Calling all Lian-Li owners for help.

I don't think it affected all models, but I know for sure that the psu rested on a plate of aluminum in both the 70 model (presumably the 75 as well) and 76 model, thereby blocking the bottom fan of two-fan psus, neccesitating either a user mod of the plate or inverted install of psu. Current...

Calling all Lian-Li owners for help.

I found Newegg to be fairly competitive when buying my Lian-Li...it's also worth something to me to have the excellent service/return policies they offer. Just my .02. BTW your true430 will have no problem in Lian-Li cases...the two-fan PSU issues on some models have been solved with newest...

Best Intel based MoBo

Most of the Granite bay reviews have remarked on the stability of the chipset. If you are not looking for a lot of bells and whistles (ie: raid, overclock options galore, etc), the Supermicro board is at Newegg (in stock as of this posting) @$219.00. If you're a bells and whistles kind of guy...

How is your raid set up? I get about 45,000 on this test w/ P4PE/2.53b/2x80g WD JB on onboard SATA using 3ware adaptors. I noticed you mentioned highpoint370 on your pg1 specs, I thought on board chip on 8INXP was Promise ata133 or SiliconImage SATA ? You using a raid card? If so, size of...

PJ - noticed you're using an Alpha, is it crowded ? I have a Swifty 4000 w/ TTSmart2 I'd like to use on this board, but it's a little larger than the Alpha and any feedback would be appreciated. THX in advance:) Hope you solve your IAA issue!

If you have installed SP1 you should be able to find USB 2.0 drivers by going to device manager and highlighting controller and doing the find driver dance, the drivers came with SP1.

Good P4PE experience so far

Lou, the P4PE has one IDE raid port and two Serial raid ports.... you need to use any two of them for raid. If you want raid on this board you will need as least one parallel/serial converter. I can recommend 3ware's product, it works a treat on my board! Regards...

Good P4PE experience so far

Have mine up and running for 48 hours... looks like a good board. I noticed in another thread that people are adding some additional cooling to chipset... they seem to run a tad hotter than my old 845D. CPU 38 @ idle, 50 ish @ load, Board Temps 29-32. I'm using the serial raid connections with...

Latest 845PE Motherboards

Hi Lou, I don't know if they are going to work yet....so caveat emptor until they have been tested, I found them in stock at cdw.com, a 3WARE "preferred distributor". Their tel. is 877-352=2882 (direct line to Pradeep Anbudaiyan, excellent sales rep.) $42.00+ per unit, so feel the pain! LOL...
