Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

Thanks. One more question: it appears this Gigabyte board doesn't have the onboard Firewire connection. Is there a Firewire card recommended or ones I should stay away from?

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

Guitardom/Sunburst, do you know if the Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L is viable also? Not sure what the difference is between that and the "C" model, but it's about $50 less.

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

The Gigabyte EP35C-DSR3 doesn't list my memory. Does anyone know whether the Corsair XMS2 DDR2 1066 modules will work?

Thumbs down Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

Thanks, Guitardom, that's great info.

ASUS was slow in getting me the RMA, which wasn't a cross-ship (where they send you the new board before they receive the old board in order to expedite). ...

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

Good advice and that's actually exactly what I did today. I stumped another tech there, but that's not a slam as this is a crazy situation. So, they're RMA'ing me again and I'm going to try to get...

Thanks for the response, Sunburst. Yes, I saw that behavior at various times. The original problem was they would spin for five seconds and stop and that would repeat endlessly. After the new mobo...

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

I took it to Micro Center to diagnose. I ran out of...

The Nightmare Continues

As a reminder, I have a P5K mobo and the PC would only spin the fans for a few seconds and then die.

After a new mobo, I still have trouble. Narrowed it down (I think) to the video card. Now I...

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs

Okay, I'm back and I went into BIOS - the memory was running at 5-5-5-18 and not set to 1066. There are auto settings and I think they reverted. Here's the new Sandra report:

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs
