Will the ASUS P9X79-E WS or P9X79 WS fit in ATX case?

Hi
I have searched and googled for two days now and I have still not found an answer to this question.
I am planning an upgrade of my system to be a serious workstation and have recently bought hte Fractal Design XL Black Pearl Case that supports E-ATX. I love this case and would prefer not to buy a new one, so I´m trying to find out if the ASUS P9X79 WS (that Harm and others seems to reccomend as MOBO) or maybe the ASUS P9X79-E WS 8the one with 7 PCI-Es - Wauv..) will fit in my case? Both MOBOs are SSI CEB, but Fractal Design tells me that it might fit in the case if the mounting holes are placed equal to the ATX based MOBOs? Some say that it fits most cases with support for E-ATX (my case supports E-ATX as well), but others say that it does not fit anything but a few cases that supports SSI CEB....
Any clues?
Thx in advance....

When will the Asus RBG50VT-X5 be available again

I was about to order the Asus RBG50VT-X5 today. When i refreshed the page it was sold out. Does anyone know when it will be in stock again?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Those are factory refurbished units. Almost all models will be discontinued and new units are arriving soon that are loaded with Windows 7.

Will the optical drive from a 14" iBook G3 fit and work in a 12" iBook G3?(

The logic board in my 14" G3 finally died (after two replacements). I've got a 13" G3 that works great, but has the CD-ROM optical drive.
Will the combo drive from the dead 14" fit in the 13" (and, more importantly, will it work)? I'm not afraid of the disassembly - I've replaced iBook hard drives before, so I know the drill - but I don't want to start on the job, only to find that the drive won't fit or won't work.
I've read some posts online about master vs slave settings, HD jumpers, and so forth, but I don't think they're talking about a swap job like this.
Any help and advice is greatly appreciated.

Dick,
Here's the Apple part numbers for the 14" and 12" from the manuals:
14"
Optical Drive
CD-ROM 661-2667
CD-RW/DVD-ROM 661-2683
CD-ROM 661-1775
COMBO 661-1776
12"
Optical Drive Assembly w/Bezel
CD-ROM 661-1775 (Good)
Combo 661-1776 (Better)
So the numbers seem identical hard to tell from the info I have if the cables are the same but even if they aren't there are usually just adapters that screw into the back to adapt to different cables. Since you have both iBooks you'll have those adapters.
There also seem to be differences in the bracketing but you'll also have those so I'd give it a try.
Oh and also the bezels might be different.

Best Buy baited me and switched up on the ASUS G74SX-BBK9 vs. the BBK11 - not cool!

My question to Best Buy is - Have things gotten so bad in your business that you have to resort to what amounts to bait and switch tactics to get people into your stores?
I am a long time customer and Rewards Zone member. Between my family and my extended family I would say I have an impact on 7 to 10K in Best Buy business annually (conservative estimate really) as the family tech guru. Unfortunately more often than not I find BEST Buy, really isn't in the long run and I find that sad. Let me give you an example:
I have been following the ASUS G73 and now G74 laptops for the past couple years. I have been interested in getting one because I am a middle aged performance computer nut and will not settle for sub-standard performance even in my portable computer. The ASUS G74SX-BBK9 caught my eye and I went down to the local Best Buy with cash in my pocket to pick one up. When I arrived I learned that the BBK9 is nearly impossible to find but I am in luck, it has been replaced by the BBK11 and it is in stock!. Upon closer inspection I learn that the "new" BBK11 is really the same computer as the BBK9 with a low performance hard drive AND A HIGHER PRICE!!! Please allow me a moment to inform you that when it comes to IT hardware it does not INCREASE in value as the model ages, it actually LOSES value. And it is crystal clear to me that Best Buy thinks:
1. They can pull the ole switcheroo and no one will notice.
2. The customer is stupid and has more money than brains.
3. Specs are meaningless in high performance computer hardware.
4 or all of the above!
But what really got to me was the attitude of the staff. I asked if they could help me locate a BBK9 and I would buy it that second. After a couple minutes of a passive search they said it was impossible to find. Strangely enough it is on the Best Buy site - granted it is now listed as an Outlet item, but it clearly is available somewhere.
It does not make any sense to pay more for less and that makes me sick really. But I will be traveling for 10 days and don't have time to do an online order so I offered to buy a BBK11 but at a slightly better price than the $1249 it was listed at. Being completely fair - I would pay $1249 for a BBK9 in a microsecond if I could find one!!! But alas it has been marked down $70 and is only available in stores if you win the lottery and can find one. I am guessing it is right next the the unicorns and pot of gold at the base of a rainbow in the software section!! Are you starting to understand why this feels like a bait and switch?? The website says it exists, but good luck finding one - just feels like a foot traffic in the store come-on to me.
After a few minutes the lady I spoke with came back from a visit with a supervisor and said, "the price that is on it now, is the price it sells for and there is nothing we can do, and we have nothing else to talk about." I agreed that she was right about one thing - we have nothing else to talk about and I left feeling like an idiot for even walking into the store in the first place. A word of advice from a customer service manger - making your customers feel like idiots is not the way to build a business that will last. It is the way to alienate your customers and ruin your brand reputation in the long run.
Good luck and I hope you survive - but I think you are way off track........

So you are expecting for BBY to stock a discontinued model?
I agree that Asus dropped the ball. They did make an inferior "new" product. But that's not BBYs fault. There are probably a few BBK9s out there, hence why it's still on the website but online stock checks aren't 100% reliable.
If I was BBY I wouldn't have budged on the price either. They are just a middle man and because you want to buy it for less just means they will see even less profit on a razor thin margin to begin with.
This is far from bait and switch as it wasn't advertised, Wasn't put on an unbelievable sale, nor did they upsell you to another product. You researched what you wanted, thought you found it at BBY and when they didn't have an outdated model in stock then the next model was suggested I assume.

Arch on the Asus 900 (EEE PC)

Firstly, I'd like to ask if anyone's had any success with installing arch on the asus 900 and if the steps they took while doing it differed from those in the threads/guide regarding the 700 found on these pages.
Secondly, I've been poking around with arch trying to get everything (need before greed) working. I currently have gotten both the wired and the wireless network working, proper graphics and most of the configuration has also been done, so I'm kind of settled in now. At the moment I'm just missing the sound card, webcam and proper acpi support. I've been trying to get the 2.6.25.2 kernel running, hoping that it will solve some issues with the asus acpi support but haven't been able to boot it since I don't have an initramfs/initrd-fle that I can use.
Does anyone have any pointers?
Cheers /emilIO

B wrote:I know Asus themselves released some ACPI code for those EEE PCs ...
It's true that they have, but I can't even download it since the link is broken . I did however manage to download some of the eee packages for arch posted by people on the forums but didn't have any success since I kept getting error messages saying that stuff in /proc/acpi/asus/ couldn't be found. I figured that I needed the asus acpi module for laptops that is included in the kernel so I went about getting my hands on the 2.6.25.2 kernel. After compiling the bzImage, modules and installing the modules the kernel paniced during boot-up. I resolved this issue by compiling in the drivers for the SSD. Now it started panicing about /lib/modules/2.6.25.2-ARCH/modules.dep, saying that the file isn't there, only it IS! So I'm kind of confused now, any tips?

I am considering a purchase of the ASUS PB278Q 27"

I want to be assured it will work at full resolution with a late-2013 Macbook Pro 15" Retina. Does anyone have experience or knowledge of this?
I bought an HP 27" last month for this purpose and no amount of cables and combinations would make it work. I can't afford to do a repeat, paying shipping back, etc. The HP did work with my 2007 Macbook Pro and with my Mac Pro, but would not work with the late-2013 Macbook Pro, so its difficult to 'asusme' that it will just work with the Macbook Pro. I also had the Macbook Pro checked out by Apple and it was ok, worked with the Apple display with no problem.
Lots of folks seem to have had this same problem with the HP, so maybe it is just unique to that. I'd like to know for sure before if possible.
Thanks,
Tmy

I am currently using the Asus PB278Q monitor with my 2012 Macbook Air. I can run it at full resolution with a mini displayport to displayport cable. However, I sometimes see some strange behavior when I reconnect the monitor after putting my computer to sleep.
Most of the time, I can get the monitor to connect by plugging it in, turning it on, then opening the clamshell of my laptop (this process took a bit of trial and error to figure out). If I do this in the wrong order, or if it doesn't feel like working that day, then I have to restart to get the monitor to connect.
I'm still searching for a fix (terminal command to reset the monitor connection?) but until then, I can't recommend this monitor for use with a mac laptop, even though it mostly works at full resolution.

Will the Nexus 7 come to Best Buy?

Does anyone have any idea if Best Buy will carry the Nexus 7?

I see that two US retailers are taking preorders now. I'm a little disappointed in Best Buy for being behind the curve on this one. I personally just picked up the Asus tf300t. Same company makes it, similar specs a ton more memory and 10 inch screen.

My iPhone was stolen a few days ago. It appears to be offline on the Find My iPhone app. If the person who has it turns it on only for a brief moment and then turns it off immediately, will the location still be found? Once it returns to being offline will the location still be sent to me? And also, how can I retrieve my pictures from my iCloud?

Anything is possible.

Hi there bananas321,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder, what happens if I delete the photo in Iphoto ? Will the original file in the folder be deleted too?

When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder to iphoto, what happens if:
1. I delete that photo in iphoto? will the original file in the folder be deleted too ?
2. when importing, does the hard disk store 2 versions of the photo, hence occupying additional space in the harddisk?

1 - no -- iPhoto only manages fiel within the iPhoto library - it does not ever do anything with files outside the library
2 - No idea what you are asking - by default (and strongly recommended) iPhoto copies the original to the iPhoto library and you delete the source file outside the iPhoto library - iPhoto alwasy has at least two versions of every photo and some times three - it always have the original, a thumbnail and once a photo is modified a preview - this is not optional - if it is not what you want then iPhoto is not the correct progrtam to be using for phopto management

I think your Macbook came with a Mini DVI port instead of a Mini Display port.

I'm not so sure about that. I'd say the jury's still out until someone gets one and tries to use it single-link.
