Great - so the reason we were all persuaded to go LGA1156 was due to the lack of cheap future upgrades for the X58 platform. If it keeps it's...
John T - I got myself an Eee Box (the original one) to use as an iTunes server. There's a hard-drive caddy on that system, similar to an old...
£323 on the Crucial site now! That's over £100 more than I paid. Novatech seem to be among the cheapest at the moment. I should have ordered two!
Good job - Dabs price now back up to over £270! Mine's installed and working, but awaiting Retail Windows 7 and a firmware update to enable TRIM.
All I can say is I'm glad I didn't wait! My 4850 will do just fine until I actually need a DX11 part. Looks like 5850 is the way to go when/if...

Still happy with my recent 4850 purchase for £70 inc VAT, delivered. Don't game enough to justify any extra outlay, and think my PSU will thank...
It's a good suggestion, but apparently it's DDR1333 @ 1.5V. These are they:...
Agreed. I might have to do some forensic work on the chips. The part number is definitely for a 1.5V kit. The 3-channel set of the same dimms...
An update: - Still with 2Gb RAM only I tweaked the timing to 2T from 1T, fixed the RAM voltage at 1.506V (these DIMMS are rated at 1.5V) and...
