U mean what, those opterons are still there or u mean the shop is still there?
2 possibilities:

1.) Maybe someone just opens it to pass time, not really needing the  income from the shop.
2.) Too many water fish in Penang who always gets slaughtered... laugh.gif

I seriously hope it was the 1st reason, if not i can't imagine how many innocent victims... shakehead.gif

oh..I mean the shop...and...

I don't think it is just open for pass time leh sweat.gif sweat.gif

So it means...water fish??? sweat.gif
Anyhow, i bet the owner will be swearing and cursing if he knows the existence of this thread, and if he is reading this, i hope he will realise the problem with his shop and do something to it.

I wouldn't mind if prices are slightly higher and the shop offers good service, but when the slight premium is almost one extra fold on the price, which dumb ass would actually wanna pay for them.

@Phoenixwunin
DDR is expensive...but the one i stated there should be considered cheap already. High performance ram for this type of price... thumbup.gif

And also, about upgrading to C2D...some of us 939 users still very sayang with our rigs and really feel it's not time to part with them. Anyhow to me, it still serves me well, so maybe Phenom or Penryn will be a better choice, let's just wait a little longer and see. thumbup.gif
*
May be have another reason, some part they sell also not so expensive..
But i just guess la, if not, how come can survive until now.. smile.gif

oh.. i really need a new proc soon, need to run my analysis.. sad.gif
but i just bought this 3000+ for 2 months ++ only, still have 9month + shop warranty.

It is just like.. a bit waste to buy a new proc+mobo. sad.gif

Oic, i was a USM student. Just grad last semester. But will be finding for a job in Penang.  Other than the stupid PC shops, every other thing about Penang is still cool. Love the food especially.

I guess you should just keep this rig and maybe use it as a BT rig, since it doesn't really worth much selling.
Where r u studying now?

oh.. that mean your convocation is coming soon ya. smile.gif
Congratulation rclxms.gif

I am Housing, building and Planning student.

Plan to keep the rig before... But have to see how lor. It still have 9 month warranty, If can sell it off, then it is better. smile.gif

Hmm, skool reopening soon. So all da best in the new sem.
Convo will be in August, but i'll be around in PG most probably starting next week.
Which year r u in?

Btw, Intel price dropping in July huh, so what do you plan this time? E6600? E6750?
Actually in terms of benchies Intel is leading, but in real life experience, the differences with X2 seems to be marginal...You don't really feel it...

yalor, tension, tension and tension.. cry.gif cry.gif

I am 1 st year master student.

I plan to buy Quad core. I am doing a rendering analysis, that is the reason i prefer Quadro FX. Unluckily i found out that my processor bottlenecks the Quadro FX performance.
If i just normal use or play games, i sure will take AMD, but i plan to do rendering, so only I plan to get a Intel processor. May be I will get a opteron too, but i havent decide yet. sad.gif

Dillema.. tongue.gif

Oh, masters... brows.gif
So u taking on part time or full time?
Taking HBP masters should not be easy, even undergrad is tough enuff.

Hmm, quad...So far your only choice will be Intel. For rendering wise, i think most benchies favor Intel, so i guess the verdict is pretty clear here...

I'm also in a dillema, whether to upgrade or to wait for Phenom then only decide... laugh.gif

yalor.. everyday tension .. cry.gif

oh.. i saw a active bulk for opteron 165, 170... alrd
It is cheap. May be u can have a look . smile.gif

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/449741/+200

I heard that opteron is stable enought compare with C2D, because it is a server proc.

So, i just worry that... i should prefer stable proc or high end proc?

oh.. If you computer now server u well, then dont need to change your PC lor.
Dont waste money smile.gif

Huhu, the ELHH82 Bulk, very tempting indeed.
It is really cheap, am tempted to get maybe the 165 but that will depend on budget limit. If i start working in this month then should not be a problem...

Hmm, stability wise, i think both of them should be stable enough. The 939 Opterons were actually meant for desktop usage rather than server, it's just adapted from the 940 server Opteron.

Bsaically, if you want to go for the opteron, you won't need to give up your entire rig, just get the proc, but if you get the C2D, then it's almost a whole rig change...

It depends on you needs lar...I think the opty should work quite well already, but if you do have the ability to go further, why not right?
*
Yalor. Tje Elhh82 offer a nice price for Opteron 165. Only RM430 and including postage somemore .. sweat.gif

yaya.. i plan to take opteron because i want to save money, but I only have 1G ddr Ram now, that is my problem. Opteron + 1G DDR is not cheap alrd. smile.gif

@MENO, u know where to get this cable in Penang?

Molex Cable Kit DMS-59 Dual DVI-VGA
http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/a..._1951_100188166

That cable ar?
Not very sure o, but why do you need that?
Wanna use up to 4 monitors?
If in KL you might find it at 3E Imbi or LYP, maybe can help you have a look this week. I might be going down to lyp.
U need the VGA-2 DVI or DVI-2 VGA?

Hmm, btw if you want to go for 2GB, i would recommend the Team Xtreme Cronos 1gbx2 DDR 500 kit, it's price less then RM500. And you should be able to sell your pair of Geil off for quite a good price.

I'm looking at the Opty 170 actually, but still need to wait because for the time being, no spare budget yet.
*
Oh. it is because i just bought a graphic card Nvidia Quadro NVS280 PCI-E 64Mb DDR which is use the DMS-59 as a out put.
So I need to buy a Molex Cable Kit DMS-59 DVI or Molex Cable Kit DMS-59 VGA.
If not, i cannot use it. sweat.gif sweat.gif

oh.. no leh .. Geil DDR 512MB X2 cannot sell in high price.. so down leh..

2G DDR RM500 + OPteron RM430, need RM1000 .. sweat.gif

if i sell off my CPU + ram about RM300, still have to pay for RM700 sweat.gif
So i am still think about it.

oh.. 170 is nice rclxms.gif

Oh ok, i tot urs are those High Performance Geil One TCCDs.

Oh, i tought thats a normal DVI socket. I will help you ask about the DMS-59 Cable Kit when i'm in KL. Btw, why don't you try in the garage and search for another 2x512MB Geil Blue? Should be able to get for the price you expect to sell... thumbup.gif

Oh.. thanks a lot.
I open a WTB thread alrd.
but i think it is not easy to get the cable in lowyat. cry.gif
When u go Lowyat? this friday?
May be need your help to buy it smile.gif

It is seldom saw people sell Geil Blue, I saw a 512MB X2 ram before. It is RM200.It is a nice price.
Unluckily that time i cannot found a opteron bulk.
Now i saw a opteron bulk , but the ram is sold cry.gif
That is life. blink.gif

Not sure about the price slash though.
Even if AMD slashes their price, i doubt if the 939 prices will be affected as they are already out of production.

If i go Lowyat, most problably will be either Saturday or Sunday, i need to pick up a projector from my supplier in Imbi this week, so might have time to go around before i pick my stuff up. Btw, you have any budget limit for the cable? It's easier if you let me know how much you expect the cables to be, so if overbudget i won't get it for you.

Ya, this is life...Always when i'm not looking for that item, loads of them are up for sale, when i have the budget, everything vanish.. tongue.gif
*
oh.. thanks a lot.
My budget is around RM30, if more than RM30, then dont need to buy for me.
Really thanks a lot ya. smile.gif

oh.. if AMD price slash, may be plan to get a new opteron AM2 proc + motherboard tongue.gif

oh... U purposely go to KL to pick a projector? The transportation alrd cost you a lot ya. tongue.gif

Later can plan to open a computer shop alrd.. rclxms.gif

You know what? Advanced Tech, that new computer shop, sells Lian Li! brows.gif other then that, the computer shop keeper there was very helpful and eager to sell... Maybe a little too eager. Unfortunately, I don't think he knows too much about computer modding though.

Anyway, Swisspac also has links to order Silverstone Casings if you order from them. Although I doubt it'll be cheap.

Competition seems to be heating up at BJ... brows.gif

I also just come back from Bj just now.

Check the computer part price in BJ, then compare with KL shops price list.
Some of the items even Penang shop are more cheaper rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

oh. Advance Tech bring in Lian Li oh.. but this kind of casing only suitable for rich person.. sweat.gif sweat.gif

Hmm, i'm personally interested in the Classical series, but when you guys said only one model...Hmmm, maybe still ATE will be a better place to search for my upcoming casing.

Acecombat,
Wats so special ar...Can i say that the overall built and material quality is better than those cheapo casings, and most Ah Lians are design with Airflow taken into consideration, so basically they should be offering better airflow compared to other generic cases. I understand they cost a bomb when compared to generic, but you don't get a full alu case when you get generic here in Malaysia. Considering that some CM cases are priced at RM2++, i personally think those entry level Ah Lians could be better buys...
