Ermm...ebay? Seriously, it's the most realistic way to figure out how much your old Mac is worth. Everymac lists prices, but they are way too high.

Oh no! Are you planning to overrun Apple HQ by force and steal the secret G5s? If so, at least give me a keychain.

[quote] I would rather get the Athlon MP, as it is acually cheaper contrary to what you stated. Example: Athlon XP 1800- $107 Athlom MP 1800- $167 Okay, maybe I'm completely missing out on something, but last time I checked, $167 meant MORE…

[quote]The new Thermalright AX-7 is my personal favorite heatsink at the moment. Ah, I forgot to mention that. I've heard great things about it. Considering AMD is going to remove to mobo mounting holes from future designs (or at least is plannin…

[quote]To me, the Swiftech is still tops. The CoolerMaster witht he heatpipe is pretty nifty too. I don't know about the CoolerMaster, but the Swiftech MC462 (if that's the one you had in mind...) is quite a bit more expensive than the PAL8045, p…

Yep, that's the one. However, I'm pretty sure the PSU is fine because the fans work and I get the correct POST code (FF) that means the mobo is working. So if everything is peachy, and I know the monitor works, it's gotta be between the mobo--&g…

That's what I thought. I believe I'm thinking of the SiS 735.

Okay, I'm afraid of making long posts, so here's what I got, and some suggestions as to what you might buy instead: For the CPU, I went with an Athlon XP1700+. It was an OEM which means it comes without a heatsink and fan. It cost me $117 from Ne…

Ahh, we're in the same boat man. Just brush away all the guys trying to make you feel guilty. First off, resist the urge to get all the top end components with all the whiz bang features. Coming from the Mac side (like I did), you think "damn, I …

[quote]Ok. So when they put VPC on the Mac and they bring it home, and their applications/games like Everquest, etc. don't work, what happens then? "What? We never said it would work!"

Holy crap. That's a heatsink? Hell, my Athlon mobo has a HS and fan for the northbridge! :eek:

[quote]My favorite Apple book: Apple: The Inside Story of Intrigue, Egomania, and Business Blunders. Great book! Tells everything about the various steps Apple took and how they got to where they are today. Also, Gil Amelio's autobiography gives …

[quote]applenut's "Happiness Sensor" kicks in, and in rushes the voice of reason. Nice buy Torifile. Personally I don't see the need for CDRW on the road, so don't listen to a-nut.
