| 684672 | 2008-07-03 00:43:00 | Im not sure what you mean by changing the divider etc. Eventhough fulll towers are huge, i thout it would b good because it has more space for better ventilation. I found this case NZXT LEXA Blackline Classic Performance Midtower (500w psu optional) In the BIOS there's a setting that regulates how the RAM speed is related to the FSB. It's called the divider. I think the p5k-e sets it automatically, so maybe you won't have to worry about it. But what it means is that if your FSB is set at 1066, then your RAM will sit at 533 if you have a 2:1 divider. a 5:4 divider will let you have 1066mhz FSB and 800mhz RAM... unless I've got it all wrong. The BIOS on the p5k-e is fairly intuitive, so if you get it you should see what I mean. |

| 684673 | 2008-07-03 01:12:00 | Looks too basic. I want something with a bit more aesthetics and of course with good function. Antec Sonata 3 looks really nice and its powersupply seems pretty good too but not sure if its enough. |

| 684674 | 2008-07-03 01:14:00 | Gigabyte Aurora (www.gpstore.co.nz) is a nice case. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 684675 | 2008-07-03 01:16:00 | antec sonata 3 reviews: Pros: + Sleek look + Plenty of front panel connectors: 2 USB, a headphone, a microphone, and an eSATA + Easy Installation + A 120 mm TriCool fan with adjustable setting included + Fan filters + Noise-dampening rails + Well-constructed with no sharp edges + A decent 500W, 80% efficiency PSU + Quiet Cons: - Price - PSU may not be strong enough for high end system - Fan controller is inside the case - No firewire on the front panel connector - Fan makes rattling noise if not positioned right - Front connectors are not covered - No cable management |

| 684678 | 2008-07-03 01:55:00 | I dont buy cases every time I upgrade, so I tend to get a good\excellent case to last the distance. It depends if the case will be in full view?.... I look for pleasing looks, build quality, room for working in (full tower) and most importantly, the air flow setup..... I am lucky, my TJ06 was only $236, however they seem to be in short supply in NZ... If it was me building again, with the nice components you are putting inside, I would go for a Lian Li V1200 or a TJ09\10 or even 07...... |
