BF2S Forums What tech did you buy today?

A small admission to make. I took a risk on this card, the auction said it for spares or repairs, and that it was untested. Well, quite the risk to take but it paid off.

n n n njoyyyy!!!

Cisco E3000 802.11N Dual Band Router\ Supports UPnP.  My old WRTG54 requires daily restarts.... time to upgrade!

Got one awhile back.   I finally have a weekend to completely rewire my network.  The gig switches will be sweet.  Funny thing, I'll be replacing my ancient WRTG54, which has never failed to this day.  Hopefully this new Cisco won't give me any headaches. 

Worth installling Tomato on this Cisco?

ha! i turned a WRTG54 into an access point using tomato . . .

Cammy, what CPU you got?

I got an Asus Rampage III Gene for sale, if you use i7:

Oh.

Well someone needs to take this off me before I'm forced to eBay it.

4GB of Kingston DDR2 667Mhz ECC ram.

why error correction? are you under-clocking?

well twas an auction on ebay, and I needed 4GB for my sisters pc as I have 4x1GB to put in it, and the motherboard only has 2 slots, so I had to buy 2x2. Just turns out that this ram is ECC lol.

Camm, good luck with that card man.  Hope it works the way its supposed to!!!

I shall let you know next month when I get a new mobo

But for now it makes a rather nice, if expensive, paperweight.

Well, you could swap it with your current one and see if you need a new mobo at all.
Or instead some more paper for your new £72 paperweight.

I need a new motherboard for sli capabilities, not to test it or anything. It is in my pc just now though. Working like a charm.

On topic: picked up a cheap system yesterday, 17" TFT screen, compaq box, with a HT p4 in it, 1gb ram and a 160gb hard drive.
Got it for £40, cleaning it up and punting it on for probably 40 or 50 quid profit.

That way, you will only have 32 or 22 quid net loss.

eh? fobeglish is drunk.

I bought it for £40, and I'm going to get about £80 or £90 for it ergo - £40 or £50 profit!
