Anybody got any place they like to go to get their H/W for PC's. Looking to build a box to throw Linux on at home. Use to go to a place in Wilmington but can't seem to find them now.

Newegg.com

ditto newegg.
Check out the new Asus M3A78-EM. I'm just about to grab one this week for an HTPC server upgrade...

That newegg looks like a winner.....looks to be reasonable on the prices too...Thanx gents

best online service around.

thanks for tip about newegg

There is no need to go elsewhere than newegg
They are without a doubt,the best:btu:

For those older geeks that remember the EggHead stores - that is now Newegg.com - probably the best place in service and one of the best if not the best in price...

Ken, I'm thinking HTPC / Home server as well, now gotta check out that board... You do yours yet?

Thanks,

John

do you use xp/mce or linux/mce for your htpc?

mixed reviews on the Asus M3A78-EM at newegg.

Saw that too...

Not sure if I want htpc (mtyh), home server Win/Linux/FreeNAS, both :tooth:

Really hate to think I need to do a needs assessment and C.B.A. from home for home :wall:

I just googled what the hell you guys were talking about......yeah baby :humpty: Wife's not going to be happy with me getting back into the home PC builds.

Those htpc's look sick......

linuxmce has a interesting interface includes X10 and VOIP integration.
Not sold on it, WindowsMCE has free scheduling until 2013?
Need a better convert to dvd that what it has now.

So you going to hange out the htpc assessment and implementation shingle? Interesting option.

Home builds are the best.You get to pick your parts

All from newegg btw

totally sick gamer machine.
You need liquid cooling, btw

Yea, liquid would be awesome,Just too much more money
it would have added to the build,plus I haven't dabbled in that yet.
I'll try it in the future and thx. I love the way this thing looks.:lama:

How high are you overclocking?

google beyondtv. easiest thing to set up for a htpc.

John you just brought back some memories. Heading into egghead and buying kingsquest on 5.25 floppies

I wondered if egghead was newegg. Same great customer service. I give them all my pc and gadget spending money. They usually come in lowest in price most of the time too.

Haven't felt the need to oc this machine.:spin:
