Fortunately for the 500r there is a large rear access cutout and I have been able to support the board from the other side with my right hand while pushing in the connectors with my left.

which asus tuf model number are you referring to?

Thanks guys. You're still awesome 19 yrs later!

So here's my situation. I have a Corsair 500R with stock fans (2 front 120mm, 1 side 200mm, 1 rear 120mm), 1 120mm top fan i salvaged from a junker, and 1 120mm bottom cpu fan that I turn into a case fan when i replaced it with a noctua. I want to improve my cooling because I just got a...

you're right, i bought it after I upgraded to a 4090 for Christmas. Pulled out my HOTAS all excited for some space simulator goodness. checked it out for 90 minutes before I realized it didn't even have joystick support... and for good reason too because there isn't even really any good space...

Starfield is 30% off.

I'm looking for someone that has the card in the subject for sale or would be willing to sell if they had one. Edit: Must be PCIe

i am looking to get a new case for my new components and this caught my attention. on newegg it is only $65 with shipping included. It comes stock with a 80mm fan in the front. I was wondering if it was possible to mod the Centurion 5 to take a 120mm front intake fan like the Coolermaster 532.

*ignore*

I was wondering if it was possible to mod the Centurion 5 to take a 120mm front intake fan like the Coolermaster 532. The cases look similar. Also is this a decent case? i am looking to get a new case for my new components and this caught my attention. on newegg it is only $65 with shipping...

The reason i want to buy a 6800 GT is becausei already own one. Just curious if i bought a 6800GS SLI would not work, correct? i'm going off what the first reply mentioned. If i am wrong this would be better since the GS isn't EoL

I am planning on buying a second 6800GT but the picture on the vendor's site shows the card having a different heatsink than the card i currently own even though both cards are Asus EN6800GTs. Is it possible that they are two different Revisions and if so does it matter if the Revision is different?

I am curious as to why after i installed service pack 2 that my defragmenter now shows me a constant 2+gig area of unmovable space when i don't have page file enabled on the drive? before the Service pack 2 was installed i didn't ahve any green bars when i had Page Files disabled.

Ok, so my friend wanted to over clocked his computer. He asked me to help him because i successfully over clocked my Giga-byte 845Pe667 Ultra mobo and Intel CPU. His BIOS only gave the option to increase the FSB and DRAM Voltage. The default frequency was 200Mhz so i had him increase it by 10Mhz...

But what makes it strictly 478? Is it that the surface that come in contact with the CPU is too wide, deep, shallow, etc. Or is it because the mounting screws won't allign with the screws on the Motherboard? I may have to just wait and use the HSF that comes with the CPU for now until i can...

I was wondering what made heatsinks Intel or AMD heatsinks or if it really doesn't matter. I have a http://www.swiftnets.com/products/mcx4000-T.asp and it's considered a Intel Socket 478 heatsink. However, does this mean it is absolutely incompatible with a Socket 939 for a AMD Athlon 64? Would...

Any other ideas?

If you can use a 98 Start-up disk, then you can just copy files over to a folder on the working drive as another option. I imagine some of the names are too long for DOS so it truncates them with a "~1". To get around that you can use wildcards. (e.g. i want to copy a file battlefield2demo.exe...

actualy it is a Maxtor Diamondmax I'm jsut wondering if it is something causing hte hard drive to do this rather than the drive going bad, because it's a brand new drive. like i say i've only had it a few weeks and it took 3 years for my 80GB Maxtor to experience this.

I dunno if this is the right Forums for a hardware problem, but i've been here before and have gotten help in various areas. I recently repalced a hard drive ( have had it for 3 years) that had been experiencing the symptom in the subject heading. It got bad enough that one day i lost my...

thanks all for you input

If i buy an SLI motherboard like the new ASUS, can i just buy a single video card for now and use it while i gather the funds for the second video card? Or do i have to buy two video cards initially and can only use the motherboard until i have two video cards.

The PSU is a Power Magic ATX-465W-PIV. It came with my case which was all of $96

Recently my system has acquired a problem. Symptoms: The computer freezes or a game crashes. I here a click within my system and then about 1-2 seconds mater i here a click that sound a little bit differnt (like yo uwould here opening and closing a breaker panel switch). Then after a little...

Anothing i've been worried about is that since my RAM is right bside my CPU, the hot air that is being blow out the base of the HS is pushed into my RAM. Is this much of any issue and could it cause my system to lose performance?

Despite the logic in that reply, i'd rather have a more in-depth response...please.

Ok the title pretty much asks the question. For a while now i've been having the air blow into the HS so that it was fresh cooler air from the room because i have my case side open because my HDD overheats because it has hardly any room to breathe. My cpu temps have been fine but i recently...

Thanks. One of the main reasons my HDD overheats is because in my case, there are only two 3.5" drive bays. Therefore my HD is mounted right on top of my Floppy. This causes a problem as you can see. And on top of this the 3.5" drive bays are mounted directly under the CD-Rom bays. This...

Come on! people i know you have case recomendations. Please give me something to work with. I see the advertisements for AMD and Intel of fanboys from each catagory. I want that from you people regarding cases. Please? Thanks. :)

Bump! Trying to get as much input as i can, this is a research phase, so more input is better, thanks. :)

Ok now that i've decided not to upgrade the hardware, the problem with the case still stands. My price range is up to $200. I might even go water cooling in the future so suggestions as to what cases to get for water cooling and/or air cooling would be apprectiated. I've been looking at the...

It's been a while since i been on these forums...the last time i was here was when i was building the computer i use now. I am hoping it'll be as helpful now as it was then. I am looking to upgrade my system's Case, and Motherboard. I have a 9700pro ATI card for my vid, so that's not too much...
