What kind of range do most of them have. Does anyone know if you would be able to use more than one to extend the range even farther?

The only other fans are the one that came with the artic freezer 7 I installed, and the fan in the power supply unit. There is a vent in the back for an additional fan *120mm i believe* and that's...
Thanks. I'm not really sure.. I think it was a generic case from taiwan that I got for $70 including a power supply *which i replaced*.
All i know is it's a 200mm fan.

Ok I finally got my setup running the way I like it, and thanks to Wise Monkey, I managed to fix the extra video card dilema *turns out the drivers for the EVGA card i was using weren't compatible...
yes i was. I think it might have something to do with the fact that one is from Nvidia *no idea what it is, i got it off ebay* and the other one is a radeon HD3850.
Of course now for some reason,...
Well that worked fairly well with one minor glitch. Perhaps you could clairify something else for me.
When I put my older card in the second slot, it recognized everything, but would not display...
Does anyone know what the story with triple SLI is? Does it work? is it easy to set up?
I was going thru my motherboard manual *ASUS Formula Striker II* and it supports this new format and it...
Just for the record I took the motherboard back to the place where they got it and they said it was indeed faulty.
So apparently something from the spray got cold enough to make a microfracture...
thanks for the suggestions. But I had disconnected the drive completely from the PATA interface including the cable. so the drive led shouldn't light up at all.
Besides the POST procedure is what...
Ok I am completely at my wits end.
I had a computer made from an ASUS commando motherboard, 2 1g corsair memory modules, an ATI 3850HD video card and a server power supply and an intel celeron...

Well according to most websites i have visited, it is certainly possible to have a media center pc on linux.
However unless you have used linux before, i would say it might be harder to set up if...
Well I could be wrong, but I would definately start with the power supply.. If the motherboard has a 24 pin connection then its a pretty safe bet that you need a 24 pin connector.
I ran into this...
I got this a spam email about a new chipset from amd that will supposedly give HD graphics at a low cost right out of the box. There is a review which I am about to read here...
Actually if you've changed the processor on your old computer, then I'd say you are ahead of a majority of people who have used this site for a first build. That was the hardest part for me...
Well I left the computer on overnight and it's still running! I also hooked up the sound to my home theater receiver and it works! The dvd burner i had appears to be defective but I did have a really...
Well, I have no speakers yet, and I'm still having problems with the cd rom drive, BUT I am typing this message on my new computer, so obviously it works enough!
I would like to send out special...
Sooo the drama continues.. I got my half built computer back from the guy who said he would test the board and the CPU for free.
Turns out that the initial problem I described was due to a crappy...
Well since none of the experts have chimed in yet, I'll just repeat what they most likely would say, since I have been reading on this forum for a couple of months now.. :)
First of all have you...
Well it may work, but more than likely it won't. If you have a retail version of XP then it would be better to do a fresh install.
Well that's from my limited experience and from reading on here....
Ok, for everyone that wants to build a kick ass system, but don't currently have the money here's what i've learned.
Save up the money first and buy everything at once. The hassles you will save...
ok so i talked to a tech guy at one of the retail stores where I bought my motherboard. He said that the intel celeron may be incompatable with the celeron chip i purchased. It was designed to go...
Oh.. geez i've been so upset that I totally forgot to answer your other question.. The CPU was used, so it could be dead but I'm not sure if there's anyway to be absolutely sure other than buying...
ok.. now I'm confused *lol*
but.. yes to 1 and 2.
"What is this all about? You put the CPU into the computer, turned on the power supply but not the case, and you get this message?"
that's...
