    Rob's HTPC Setup (CableCard, Touchscreen LCD, etc..) PICS!

    Just FYI CAT6 is useless unless you are terminating to CAT6 standards. I.E. using the crap little EZ-RJ45 crimpers aren't going to get you cat6 speeds. cat 5 might as well = cat 6 unless you are shooting for 10gb ..so i dont get the upgrade if you really want 10gb youd prob need stp as well...

    Thunderbolt cable $50? What a rip-off...

    So has anyone seen a setup that used thunderbolt yet, other than a apple demo? It would be kinda cool if you could get a thunderbolt nas, switch/router, wired to the computer. I mean even cat6 is 10gb rated though, so its not like this is something new.

    Looking for new high end computer audio setup

    My previous setup was a X-FI XtremeMusic running some Logitech Z5300-e's. It was okay, but honestly didn't feel like it had enough bass, and felt rather bland at times. I don't have a desktop any more, just a laptop. So if a sound card is needed it would have to be external. I'm thinking...

    Are there any GOOD Mboards coming out in the near fture?

    Why is 680i "shitty"? How does the chipset not do what its designed too? What do you want out of a motherboard so it won't be "shitty"? 680i was made to run SLI effectively and it does that. Its your fault if you don't like a motherboard.
