    Carbide 500R vs Raven RV03 vs Fractal Design Arc Midi

    Thanks for the reply. I had the raven in mind for some time but do you know of any downsides to the 90 degrees turn?

    Carbide 500R vs Raven RV03 vs Fractal Design Arc Midi

    Hey forum goers Title says it all. They are all the same price. (I'm in Australia) I've narrowed my choice of cases between these 3 and it is really hard to choose between them. The 500R is just a really well rounded case designed by a very reputable brand. The RV03 has a very unique and...

    Any suggestion for my new gaming rig??

    Also, since you are getting the 2500k, I assume overclocking, you should get an aftermarket cooler for that CPU. I cannot recommend any because I have never actually used any but I hear good things about the Coolermaster Hyper 212+. I also think that Asus P8P67 LE isn't made to overclock...

    I'm getting more opinions. The more informed the better I'd say :) From what I've read most would say that 12 phase is good enough, so yeah. And so I will go with the Asus because it is a trusted brand.

    Any suggestion for my new gaming rig??

    I really really think that you should opt for a 2500k instead because for $10 more you get the option of unlocked overclocking. Other than that I think it looks good.

    Core i5 System

    Uhh that's funny because I can get them both for the same price. (actually the Asrock is $5 cheaper) The thing is I would trust Asus more. These reviews are not helping either but if there are genuine advantages to buy it, I would. The dual LAN is quite unless to me at the moment. The same...

    Core i5 System

    Actually, nvm :P Other than booting faster, the Momentus XT is slower than Spinpoint because the Momentus XT is indeed a slower HDD portion than the Spinpoint. :D I think that's my build. Thanks for your help.

    Core i5 System

    Lol I would want to go with Asus just because I know Asus better than AsRock I'm definitely not getting separate SSD and hard drives. I know want to have the hassle of having to specify folders from the default. I'm actually quite interested in this one. Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ. Should I...

    So is the Momentus XT a good choice or is there something better? Also, is it better to get the ASRock P67 Ext6 over this Asus p8p67 pro if they are both the same price? Thanks

    Core i5 System

    Thanks for the reply. I'm getting my prices from https://www.pcdiy.com.au/ad/Pricelist.pdf and some other shops. Yea, I'm planning on overclocking. lol those are speakers not sounds cards. ;) I guess I could incorporate those. I still have a 250GTS which is why it's optional for me at the...

    Core i5 System

    Hey Everyone, Which board should I get/would you prefer? - ASUS P8P67 Pro - Gigabyte P67A-UD4 - Asrock P67 Extreme6 I'm trying (once again) to build a system. Could you guys critique it and see what needs improving, such as unnecessary or insufficient components. EDIT: All prices are in...

    Win 7: Removing security setting from folder

    I have Windows 7 multibooted with other operating systems and I have an external hard drive with a lot of files I use often between all the OSes. However, one of these files cannot be opened operating systems other than Windows 7 after I added it to one of my libraries. How can I remove these...
