Woot. Finally bought a Clevo M570A barebone.
Well I finally gave in and ordered the barebone with a 7800 video card. I was able to get it from Pro-Star for a decent price of about $1400 or so with reseller status. The thing looks beatiful and I have parts coming in a few days. BTW its a huge laptop 17" FTW. Once I start building it, I'll ...

Anyone have heating issues with laptops w/ 7800 GPU
Seeing as how these laptops were released just a few months ago, I'd like to know if anyone has experienced issues with laptops with nVidia's 7800 GPU (More specifically laptops with Pentium M's as well). I'm considering buying one in the near future and would like to know if I'm buying a portable t...

Did I win yet?? j/k :) I was just wondering if there is a minimum age requirement for the contest. I told my little brother about the contest (17 yrs old) and he wants to join. Is the contest limited to one per household (same last name, different address)? Do I get disqualified if my brother joins ...

Just wondering if there are any rules about how many posts must be made this month or something? Or can anyone that google's and finds this contest can enter? Just wondering. I know of a few other sites that have the exact same contest, can I join a contest on their site too or would that disqualify...

Yeah MSI isn't the best brand when looking at motherboards. They are getting better but their quality is still lacking far behind of ASUS, ABIT and a few others. I've had to return 3 out of the 7 MSI motherboards I've bought (when building systems) because they either have no display or are too pick...

Yeah it is strange, I've never experienced a problem like this. I figure the problem stems from the fact that the card was manufactured a while ago and after doing some research Leadtek actually phased this model out a few months before the first AMD 64s were launched. I'm exactly sure when the firs...

Sorry for the lack of updates on this issue, internet has been down for a few days. Anyways over the weekend, I came to the conclusion that the specific video card (leadtek A350 TDH with VIVO) has some serious issues with certain AMD 64 Platforms especially the VIA K8T800 Pro chipset. I was bored so...

Well it isn't the best PSU but it should be able to handle the basic system configuration. Also the 5900 was running fine on some generic 400 Watt PSU. I'm going to test it with a different model amd 64 motherboard and see if I can get the thing to work. If has the same problems then either the Vide...

I think the power supply is okay, its at 18A here is the link to the exact product. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817153023 Just finished a reformat on his system, still doesn't work. Going to try a different motherboard, maybe the AV8 has some issues with some old crappy vide...

Bios is fully updated. 1. formatted the system when I first built the PC with the 5900. 2. put in the 5200 without reformatting at first. Worked perfectly. 3. then formatted the system with the 5200 installed (for testing) worked 4. installed then installed 5900 without formatting same problem. I di...

Haven't had the chance to try out another MB. Most systems I build have PCI-express rather than AGP. The hard drive is brand new, and I've formatted it.
