poor puter.....
In May this year Lightning struck my IMax2000 and shredded it it also took out the lan chip on 2 of my computers and 2 lan switches...i.e. my fathers puter and my puter...so i bought 2 pcix1 lan cards and installed them ,yea...i'm back on the internet... Sunday night after downloading a large file i cme to my puter room and the screen was black and the puter running i thought it went to sleep butthat was not it so i tried to turn it off and it would not shut off. so i turned off the surge protectot. monday the pyter would not turn on. I riped a power supply from a working puter and subbed it in and still would not turn on tried a new power cord still nothing. put the power supply back and put the cpu in that puter and it worked....so my mobo is shot and no longer in production and is unavailiable anywhere unless you have $984.00 or so i found some lesser mobo's that wpuld work moral to this is " buy an xtra mobo like yours before they are no longer made and get 2 or more just in case ...its a shame to waste an 8 core processor....

I had to pay $109.99 for a USED replacement board for a computer at work (actually just needed a piece on the board) for a motherboard that was $39.99 just 18 months ago. I feel your pain. I was lucky enough to find one.

re-
i purchased the board new in 2014 and in 3 years its obsolete and not being manufactured. but it would not duel boot period. i got 2 replacements coming on Monday and the PCI-e x1 slots are more appropriately placed on the mobo . wish i had the money for an A99 mobo and the new 10 core cpu. A99 rocks and was a step in the right direction. intell took several steps back and fell into the grand canyon with all chip sets after.... boo hiss on intel

just a thought here check and see if they still make your mobo if not then check for something that works and get two of them or just one by the time you use that one up hopefully you saved enough to upgrade to newer technology cause technology of just a couple of years ago is being phased out so don't get caught with your pants down and have to upgrade now because tomorrow your mobo bites the dust like mine did....
i.e. " something that uses you processor..." even if all you can find is a small form factor or mini atx mobo it will work till you get money for a new system with upto date tech...

They don't make my mobo or CPU any more.
LOL My system is just an ATI Radeon H7800 with 8GB of ram and a Core i5 2nd Generation CPU. It still works and is clockable up to 4GHz without extra cooling. Plays the new DOOM and Arma3 no worries... so I have no reasons to upgrade yet. |

i priced this stuff
$1100 for 8 sticks of 16GB ddr4 mem 1050.00 for 16 core cpu 350 to 580.00 for a mobo nice gaming case 300.00 =/- hdd i recomend a 12TB for system drive and 2 more 12TB hdd's for storage and backup that will push the cost close to 4k so save your money....... 12TB are so new they are not at newegg or tiger direct but they are 600.00+ bucks

Well, staying with a system like mine probably means I don't have the money to upgrade - well not to that level.
Too many other pressing issues asking for money ATM. So building my own systems is also the only way I can usually afford to do it anyway. |
