Normal price, around RM330-340.
Pc Fair price, so far for the past 3 fairs, it's selling for RM269.

DFI P45 UT DDR2 version...
The Nikon D80 any chance of finding?

Bro, from the prices i see above, everything seems to be overpriced.
The GC is seriously overpriced IMHO. You could get a 2nd hand 4870 for that price.
And the Caviar Greens are actually 5,400rpm drives as mentioned by Lohwenli in our previous TT. If you're planning on using that as a boot drive, i'd say avoid it. Go for a Caviar Blue or Black instead. Or the WD6400AAKS is not bad too.
For the price of the extreme power, i think you'd better drop that and get an Enermax FMA II 535w instead. It might be 100w less than the xtreme, but there's a difference in quality between the 2. The CMs are good for their real powers, but the extremes are only good for the 460w model.

Below are the prices and spec you should expect:
E8400: RM600
P5Q-Pro: RM490
4gb of DDR2 800: RM150
WD640AAKS: RM225
Gainward 4850GS: RM640
Casing, PSU you might want to get them from GZ maybe. Get a CM690 and also an Enermax FMA II 535w
For cooling: The Xigmatek is just fine.


You can if you want to.
If the northbridge is running hot, then changing it will help get better temps which theoretically will prolong the lifespan of the mobo.
How hot is it running currently?

Regarding Phenom II, go to precess and ask Jack if he could help out.
Or you could always contact other forumers and see if they could help you get it in KL.
There are a couple of Penangites who are based in KL currently.

The Gainward 4850 Golden Sample is the Palit Sonic iirc.
Palit makes the cards for Gainward.
So basically, they both run on the same cooler, only different outlook.
In terms of cooling, both should be somewhere in the same range.

Bro, not sure if anyone carries it.
PC Depot's price list still doesn't list it.
The only way to find out is by ringing the shops up and enquire.

If it was cooled passively, that temp is pretty normal for an AAKS.

Btw, the only accurate way to get PSU readings is using a multimeter.
Any bios reading or software reading is always out to a certain extent.
However, the more reliable softwares which could monitor this is the Lavasys Everest Ultimate.

You should try doing that yourself.
Get a chipset heatsink like the thermalright HR-05/HR-05 SLI.
The attach a small 70mm fan to it.

Btw, a decent fan doesn't 100% be loud. Go for something which is tolerable for you.
Another thing, use the cm690 front intake to cool down the hdd.
Use the side as an intake. The rear and top as exhaust will be good.
But make sure theres ample space beside for air to circulate.

Bro, Wat mobo are you using?

Th M3A78-T should be pretty easy to replace.
Well, you could always ask Ace to guide you and you try it out yourself.
The Hands On experience is always different. Just be careful and dun do anything stupid, then everything should be fine.

Acey, X2 how much?
RM1 i want 100 units...

Lol...Haha, a lot of ppl keep calling me Meno, making me sound like Nemo the fish...

Btw, i need ur help if possible.
Discuss in PM...

Hey bro, long time no see, where have u been.
Seems like among the old batch of F3 users, almost all jumped ship to intel eh...
Can't resist the temptation of the Quads?

3Ghz, if it was the old F3s, anytime will hit 3Ghz...
The power consumption actually not that hiong lar, our quads eat more now...

Agreed hands and legs up...

Haha, dun worry, this thread was meant to share on all PC information and knowledge among PC enthusiast esp those from Penang area.

Same as i, i'll usually get Lian Li Bezels for Ah Lian and try to make it as unobvious as possible. Lohwenli's stealth mod is not bad too.

Lol, fast fast sell...So u can fast fast buy...For those who are looking for PSU, i got 1 for sale also...500w true power modular, come show some support lar...
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/927291

The dominator fan seems to be ok.
The airflow is pretty good. Should be doing a good job cooling down the pair of xtreems.

Haha, the backplate cooler, didn't you realise it looks so new? I did not even feel like fitting it on. Already know it won't fit, so wasting time trying...

For the fans, try get some 25mm Deltas to mount on the front and rear, and the center, get another 200cfm delta...

Btw, i saw u guys were discussing about the 4850 or the GTX260 216SP.
I was wondering, why not go for a 4870 straight, get the Asus Dark KNight, the temps are pretty good for the 1gb version.

My Q9550 @3.4Ghz, doing 48c when normal usage(Browsing+movie), never checked idle. Cooled using TRUE with Lau yah AC Ryan Dead LED fan..
Previously on IFX-14, on normal usage(Browsing+movie), Stock Speed, temp was around 43c.

I'm still thinking whether to switch to WC or stick to Air...

Wah, not bad...30c only...
I look at my temps, i headache. If i push up to 3.8 (if the chip will do), that'll be a little too much for the TRUE to Handle.

Never pushed beyond 3.4.
But now running 3.4Ghz on stock voltage with everything default.

TRUE fan bracket, earlier got one forumer sell some plastic ones.
If u want the metal clips, very expensive.
I heard it's RM60 per set, damn not worth, better take 2 cables tie the 2 fas together.

Hmm, wierd...But on the penryns, air cooling seems to be not really sufficient.

Wah, 3 sanyo denki. Rich guy...
I used to run the IFX on some deltas, but soon stopped using them, too noisy.

Actually industrial grade fans are not that expensive except if u buy brand new ones.
Most of these fans are stripped off servers.
I got some of mu high powered fans for prices of less than RM30 per piece, and from my understanding, that is considered expensive as well.

Btw, forget the CM 90cfm, tats a lousy fan.

Too bad the TRUE i'm using is only a temp solution.
I borrowed the TRUE from sonicscourge, i dun have a cooler now after selling the IFX off.
Thats y was thinking whether to get a TRUE or setup something based on a D-tek Fuzion 2,

Buy Darnell's Noistaker 600w...
Then when FMA come back, sell it off...

Btw, still thinkin of WC, let me see how 1st...
Maintaining hobbies is costly, need to split between my Camera and PC now...
Lichyetan, any nice stuff for WC to recommend? Cheap and nice stuff.
I was earlier thinking of a budget of RM500 only for everything, but after considering getting a Fuzion V2, seems like 500 will not be enough...

Btw, nobody go support our fellow POC member here ar?

Bro, i've been wondering for some time how the H2C Hybrid works.
Could you please explain the concept so we could all benefit from it?

I've been trying to find information about it for quite sometime, but just could not get 1 unit to try dismantle and see...

What sort of problem are you facing?
I don't quite understand it when u say Power On Self Test.
Do you mean you could not even power your system on with the X-Fi on it?
I have an Xtremegame Fatal1ty Pro as well and it sometimes gives some problem on my Giga mobo.
You'll need to have it mounted properly, say if it doesn't work, then try off the system and re-mount the card.
Once it's working, lock it in place and dun touch it anymore.
Tested another few X-Fi FPS on my mobo as well, and faced the same issue on every card.

Aiyo, wallet big people talk like this...
Where u hilang so long no sound?

Wei, grab HD4890, confirm+gerentee no regrets. (Then pinjam me play)

I'm good.
Ok non-official TT invite.
Everyone who is interested please start suggesting venue and date and time.
We try to find one which suits everyone best.

Haha, ya...
Mr AV king knows that.
Dun worry, when he get a 4890, there'll be a reason for him to upgrade the X2 as well.

Depends, sometimes is just pure hanging out and chatting, or sometimes we could plan some small side activities.
It's up to you guys yo suggest.

The J&W looks great, but the price...killing most wallets.
Maybe can ask Ace mei mei write a review on it.

Haha, speaking of FFK...Hmm, last TT kena few FFK cases. End up jz 5 person attend.

For those FFKers, the only thing i can say is, what goes around, comes around.
Whatever you do to others, will come back to happen on you someday, tats y we should forgive FFKers...Someday they will know wat it feels like being FFKed...

But if TT session, FFK, no excuses!!! Tat one unforgivable, cz no money involved...

KC, wat u wanna contribute this time for TT?
Any new stuff to let us play play and see see? Accelero Extreme, seems not bad, pinjam me play few days...
TT i belanja u AK(Ais Kosong).

Haiya, Dell Keyboard mau? Want next time i see got cheap cheap one bor help u get one.
Wait for next month lar.

Btw, tats y i gave up going to PC Fair. Hopeless event. Parking and traffic sucks big time, and nothing special.
And ya, the boredband not co hawt chicks, scary...

Haiya, sure mar...Ace mei mei easy easy can get free parts...just need to wear sexy sexy a bit nia...
