How come it took more than 40 posts until someone even MENTIONED Baldur's Gate? If you take any pride in playing RPG and haven't taken you character from a measily lvl 1 in through both games plus...
I know the difference between size and speed. The memory was tested as being the fastest one around, hence the hefty price tag. It's supposed to be able to go above 1100 with the P5W DH mobo, so it's...
I'm beginning to suspect that my RAM is bad. I bought the Corsair CM2X1024-6400C3 RAM, which is more than twice the price of the C5. I bought it because it was supposed to be one of the best RAMs for...

The thing is that I can't get it above 899MHz no matter how...
You could try out the Antec P180. My setup is quite similar to yours (though I chose the Asus P5W DH mobo) and everything fits fine in this chassi. If you couple it with 4 Nexus 120 mm fans, a Scythe...
Oh...just checked another thing. Apparently the MTBF is identical on both drives, found some specs on the WD website.
The only "real" difference is that the Raptor 150 has TLER, but since it's...
Damn, I know you're right...I know you're right. It hurts so much when you got the whole delicious setup lying on a table here and then have to wait.
Allthough, in a month I'd be kicking myself if...
I can see from your sig that you're also planning on getting a 1950. I wonder what the deal is gonna be next wednesday, when the NDA is lifted? I really really hope that you can at least get to...
Damn, I'm sitting here in a really really tight spot. I just got my parts for my new rig (check my sig) delivered and it includes a x1900xtx. I haven't unpacked anything, so I could send the VGA back...
Update:
Now it seems like they've gotten it right. Got this email just now:
"Sorry, you are right, my mistake, it is just the RAID specific TLER that is the difference then, and the cover."

I got an email just now from WD tech support:
"The WD1500AHFD is a desktop model for use as a single drive. The WD1500ADFD is a RAID edition model with TLER and RAFF for use in a RAID array...
Got any sort of confirmation on the date yet?
Luckily I read your posts here like 5 minutes before my rig was getting shipped from my retailer, so I quickly called and cancelled my X1900XTX. Now...
That's what the WD homepage says. However, this could be just a marketing rephrasing and they could just as well be exactly the same.
There seems to be a great deal of confusion regarding the WD Raptor 150 and the WD Raptor X. Are they identical internally?
The question popped up in a thread at the Storage Review forum. Both...
