mmmmmm that new components smell... :) Gotta love it! Have fun with that build, its a great way to spend your idle vacay time Yeah, it's been raining here for the past 3 days so not much else to do. Got it all built except for the video card, new one should be arriving tomorrow, if not I'm just goi...

Thanks, I tried to do a lot of research both with Legit Reviews and Maximum PC magazine. Only thing I'm not 100% on is the memory. It's not on the approved vendors list from Asus but comments on Newegg lead me to believe it should work just fine with a bit of additional headroom for OC'ing.

I'm on vacation this week so I'm going to start my new build. Bought everything using Black Friday deals, on sale or rebates, so it wasn't too painful. I'll be checking in after I get it up and running for some help with BIOS and OCing. Wish me luck! Here's what I've got so far: Asus X58 Sabertooth ...

SATA II will work fine, it's backwards compatible.

Thanks XstollieX,getting the parts together using rebates and sales so it may be a while.

Persistence paid off, got one at Frys last night for $179 with $20 MIR, sealed box. Let the fun begin!

when i checked yesterday, the X58 Sabertooth was available on the egg for $150 openbox! Frys had three with open box today for that price as well. I'm not going to be able to build it for at least a month or so as I need to get all the components as I can afford them so I'm a bit leery of open box ...

Sounds like I'm going to get this board. Picked up the i7 950 today on sale, planning on buying 1 - 2 things at a time as budget permits. I'll be posting in another forum shortly asking about RAM recommendations on this board.

I've been reading more about this board and I'm thinking this might be a good start for my next build. Keep seeing the i7 950 for $199 at Micro Center, might just have to go get one.

Good Lord!

We've tried the FM radio frequency adapters and there was just too much noise and poor sound quality. We used this in my wife's Nissan Murano: http://usaspec.com/ It's just OK. Works with the controls in the factory radio, but hard to use IMO. I swapped out the head unit for Alpine's w/iPod specific...

Spoke too soon, hit 85 yesterday. Always seems to get warm in early September when the kids are returning to school.

Pretty mild here this summer so far.

If I hadn't seen the news article I'd swear it was a Saturday Night Live skit.

I googled this and found that New Zealand is 230v @ 50hz. The US cycles at 60hz so be sure the adapter addresses that issue as well.

I don't know if this will work or not but I had a similar issue about a year ago. I went to Internet Options, Connections, LAN Settings and unchecked Automatically Detect Settings and was able to connect again.

I too have a Weber and you've got to love their ten year warranty on their burners. I've had mine for 5-6 years and I leave it outside on my patio (covered) and the burners haven't rusted out yet.

Ummm...shouldn't these folks be heading home to get to bed on time so they can go to work in the morning?

Proof positive why the unemployed shouldn't be allowed to breed. Idiots!

I really hope their families see them in the video and turn their butts in. Maybe a reward would be in order?

I picked it up at Fry's because I needed it right away. We just bought a new home and it doesn't have ethernet in the right locations (yet). Paid $59 for the luxury of having it now instead of ordering from Newegg for $44.

Went ahead and got a D-Link DWA-556 (PCI-E) and it works just fine under W7 64 bit.
