388037 2005-09-14 23:22:00 oth....sort of ..

Its ECS and PCChips, though PCChips own ECS so its both....sort of ..

Anyhow, there are 2 different markets, and Asus ship more boards to the market but ECS/PCChips sell more to OEM's, Giving Asus THE #1 spot for selling motherboards.

Simple?


Dam you got it, you wern't suppose to lol Yep "Hengseng Technology"

I can't remember market share figure's but its something like 70% to the OEM's (so called brand names).

So my point is after all that, chances are the average end user has a cheap nasty fully cut down ( but ok) motherboard rather than a full featured board in there PC. I was simply shooting down the 90% of motherboards have case sencors statement, which I know is not true as I have probably repaired 5000+ machines of all brands.

388038 2005-09-15 01:56:00 yes and only 1 min to swap the ram

and 1 min to swap the CPU

and 1 min to swap the video card

and only 10 minutes to swap the motherboard.

See my point? guess guess guess, we could do this all day.
:

10 minutes to swap the motherboard. :D :D
The comp I have now took me 8 hours to remove old board and fit new one. Two hours just to get the front UCB connected. And another hour to work out where the wires for front switches etc. went.

Can I call on you next time? I'rd even give you a cup of coffee, but you'rd be finished and gone before it brewed

lol 8 hrs, what have you only 1 arm? hehe I think your pulling my leg.

Keep in mind i do this for a job. When I was a PC Bulider I could assemble a PC in about 30mins, the record at work is 9 minutes to post (everything laid out ready to go).

I replaced My radiator in my car a few months back and according to my car forum its a 45 minute job, 4 hrs later and a lot of swearing I was finished and as for working on my house..

388040 2005-09-15 03:40:00 Point 1

Never seen a CPU Sensor? really??.
wake up and READ or are you just blind ???
i never said anything about not seeing a cpu sensors. the discussion was on case/mobo sensors not cpu sensors.

i said i've yet to see one with an external sensor close to the cpu (not including the "under the cpu" cpu sensor) which exactly what you have just said.
just to make it clear for those who are blind and deaf........apart from the external cpu sensor the early boards (socket A -socket7) i have never seen a mobo with a mobo/case sensor that is close to the cpu, there are normally at the end of the mobo. the early mobo's have a cpu sensor under the cpu not a case/mobo sensor.

388041 2005-09-15 03:46:00 It's interesting that "heat" or "temperature" threads cause so much "overheating" .

Perhaps some of the people need proper cooling . The CPUs aren't the problem . :cool:
