Re: **Desktops and Laptops Thread**[ALL COMPUTER RELATED QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSIONS HE

alright guys. probably isn't the place to post, but i've had an account here, and kinda lazy to make an account else where. at the same time i'm sure people here have been tinkering of what i'm about to do.

i'm doing a heavy upgrade from my recent file server setup. and from the technology jump you can understand a few questions of mine. i did this when i was a kid, and stuff has changed drastically. i've done some reading, but it doesn't hurt to spit a few questions to the younger group that's been following this every day.

amd k62 450mhz 128mb, 4x300Gb eide ata/66, freebsd, non-raid

yeah, she's served her purpose for the past 9 years or so, been full, and i'm tired of shuffling around data. ive been experimenting with a handful of pen drives and getting myself familiar with mdadm on debian, i figured i'd b0rk useless pendrive data before wiping a 6tb array :/ problem is these pair of 2.4 p4 boxes that were given to me don't have pcie slots, and all sata6.0 cards are pcie. so i'm forced to buy a new mobo/cpu/memory and i'm planning of 4 fat 2Tb drives on mdadm raid6

i planned on getting this mobo/cpu combo, and $30 extra for 4gb of ram

hmm, and since i can't post links yet, i guess google this

"AMD A6-5400K Trinity 3.6GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) Socket FM2 65W Dual-Core Desktop APU (CPU + GPU) with DirectX 11 Graphic AMD Radeon HD 7540D AD540KOKHJBOX"

my only questions

1 is power supply, i have a 350 watt, but it doesn't have any power connectors for sata, or the 4pin 12v connector (honestly not sure what this is about). so i'm assuming it's safe to say the mobo can supply the hdd's with power? never owned a sata drive.

2 and also for atx, i have a full form atx case, so i'm assuming i shouldn't have screw problems lining up?

3 and instead of buying a 5th drive for the server file system to reside on, i'll probably do a small 500mb slice on one drive, and raid the remaining, a small size price to pay to span across all the drives with double redundancy.

$620 or so shipped. i'm going to assume that's an acceptable price, for such storage size, performance jump, at the same time not blowing an entire paycheck on it.

no video games, no web browsing, no multimedia, no gui, no compiling, straight up bash on a minimal debian install. all commandline.

only daemons will be sshd, ftpd, mdadm, and nfsd. not even samba, i don't have any windowz boxes. although i do wish android/kernel's supported nfs4...

i have a laptop w/hdmi for the 68", so don't get me wrong ￼ it'll be nice to pull a 1080 br mkv rip across the LAN. i do plan on keeping old faithful around. once data is moved i'll probably retire freebsd, and debian/mdma the eide's as well. slow, but redundancy.

opinions? cheap move? better move? different hardware choice? poor hardware choice? i don't plan on going over $700. at the same time i don't plan on this being the latest and greatest gaming rig to play video games.

thx for the input.

My plans are simply to play any racing, shooter, or rpg's. Right now I play Crysis 2 & 3, Hitman Absolution, Dirt 3, Assassins Creed Series, Battlefield BFBC 2, BF3, F.E.A.R 3, Mass Effect Series, Max Payne 3, Sleeping Dogs, The Darkness 2, The Witcher 2, Etc...

My First Build

So last night I completed my first pc build, everything was smooth sailing until the end. The system didn't want to power on, I reconnected all the cables and on the second try it powered up. I still don't know what the issue was, I'm assuming that one of the cables must have been lose. I upgraded from a Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop (Pentium IV 2.8Ghz, 2GB Ram, NVIDIA 6200). I also have a Dell Studio 15 laptop (Core2Duo 2.66Ghz, 4GB Ram, ATI Mobility Radeon 4570). I was trying to stay around $850 budget. I'm satisfied with my build, I just wish that the front audio cable was a bit longer so that i could run it around the back. I plan to get some rubber cable grommets to cover up the cut outs. I'm also thinking about installing the 2 extra case fans i have (not really sure how i am going to do it).

Here are my system specs, what do you guys think?

Case: Corsair Carbide Series 300R $80

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77-D3H $120

CPU: Core i5 3570K $230

GPU: GTX 560Ti 1GB (EVGA) $210

Ram: 8GB Corsair Vengeance LP (2x4GB) $47

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 7200rpm $60

DVD: LG GH24NS90 $18

Powersupply: Corsair TX650M $94

Total: $873

Extras not installed : 2 Corsair SP 120 High Performance Fans $14(one was free). I have one more fan header available and its in the lower left corner of the motherboard don't thing the cable will reach.

I just shorted out one of my front USB 3.0 ports ( lights were off I went to plug in headphones in the headphone port, got the USB port instead :banghead: . ) I will order new front I/O panel to replace the USB ports. My main question ? is there a chance that the front usb 3.0 header on the motherboard could have shorted as well. PC is running fine no issues, didn't get any bsod or freezes when I shorted the USB. It was working as if nothing happend. I just had the warning message saying USB hub exceeded power limits

Edit: I disconnected and reconnected the front USB header and the ports work now, not sure if I should even used the ports anymore don't want PC to fry.
