    New Mobo/CPU/RAM

    So I recently had my motherboard die, it suddenly wouldnt turn on one morning, but its about time for an upgrade. It was an nForce 4 with an AMD 3200+. Originally, I wanted to go i7, but being a broke college student, I think I'm gonna save some cash and go Core2. This is what i was thinking...

    Computer wont turn on :(

    So I woke up this morning and pressed the power button on my computer, and absolutely nothing happened. I thought the PSU might have gotten up plugged, but the switch lights up red when it is switched on, and it was lit. So the PSU is getting power from the wall socket. I then thought that maybe...

    Which Laser Mouse to Buy

    I have the G7 and it's sweet. I don't know how it compares to the MX1000, but all i can say is if you buy the G7 you will not be dissapointed.

    PSU Question

    I think if you are going to compare single rail PSUs to dual rail PSUs, you would just add up the amperage on the two rails. I am pretty sure thats how it works, but I'm not positive.

    To RAID or not to RAID...

    Each drive will still have the same chanch of failing individually, but overall, your chance is increaded 400%, like you said, which is 4 times. So overall, you are four times more likely to have a disk fail. Yes I know it's not that much, i explained that in my previous post.

    To RAID or not to RAID...

    Not exactly. Although you will get the same outcome, with four disks running, you are four times as lkely to have a disk failure. Granted you will rarely have a 4 disk spanned RAID setup, you get the point. With RAID 0, you are twice as likely to have a disk failure. If you do RAID 0+1, you are...

    My proposed HDD setup-comments/help please

    If you don't mind spending the money, option A would be faster. Your OS would load faster, and progams would run faster. 325GB for $230 If you don't want to spend the extra money, you could get more space for less money, (400GB for $180) but it would not run as fast. Really it just depends on...

    Need help buying a PSU

    I was looking at those and they seem like great PSUs, but the Hiper one appeared to be just as good, and I liked the modular design on them. Also it comes with a neat little toolbox to keep computer stuff in.
