yeah, i think i'll eventually venture out to a sleeving kit, but for the meantime i'll stay with the loom.
for those of you who were thinking, i'm using onboard video ATM (intel xtreme2 on the 865G chipset) because i've got my radeon 9800 on it's way to newegg. btw, is it possible for bad motherboard to kill a video card? because i wasn't getting video on my 9800 so i decided to switch to another motherboard, and i still didn't get any video. so i tried 2 PCI cards in my old (asus) board and still no video. sooo, i was confused, because one of the PCI cards was from my AMD Xp rig, and i didn't get video. i took it back to my xp rig, and sure enough, my video cards died. anyone know WHY?
also...i WOULD put my ccfl on the rail, but i've got some LEDs there at the moment. I'll prolly end up going with a 4" ccfl or something.
btw, why do 4" ccfls cost more than a 12" does? i've always wondered that.
btw: deal of the day:
