I was finally able to order a new motherboard for my Dell 530s, I managed to break something while transplanting it from the original case to a new one.

Intel BOXDG43GT LGA 775 Intel G43 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard



Now I can get my other computer back up and running and move the Q8200 back into my bedroom.

Waiting on a new Debit card really slowed me down.

the USPS does not require the 9 digit zip to get something to you. Once a piece of mail reaches its city designation its divided into zip codes, and thn further to routes. While having the extra 4 digits will make it easier to route your mail it isn't vital to getting it there

Skildude, Please bear in Mind, Mail is not delivered beyond the post office out here as there are only 2 employees. You live in a city of what population size and not in the high desert beyond Barstow, Call the Yermo Post Office[(760) 254-2315] between 9am-4pm as Yermo has a population of 1191 and a Land Area of: 98.3 square miles or 254.6 square kilometers, So there's no delivery beyond the Post Office, I've lived here since 2004 and everyone in Yermo uses a 9 digit zip code, As the extra 4 digits represent a FREE PO Box number... Otherwise since there is no street delivery out here, Good Luck getting any mail.

The Post Office is to the left side of the Market.

Next to the beer? So a mail run could also be a beer run?

Only If Ya like paying almost Double the normal cost, It's less expensive in Barstow CA 12.5 miles away.

Well it's a good thing there are liquor stores on the internet then.

So what you are saying is everyone has the same physical address of the Market/Post Office and the only difference is the +4 to show them who the mail is for.

Allows UPS and FedEx to deliver to a address without the "We do not deliver to PO Box" BS most companies have.

I lived up at the Grand Canyon for a 3 years, we only had PO Boxes, mine was PO Box 492, my zip was 86023-0492.

UPS, FedEx and DHL all delivered to our central warehouse and then we had to go pick up the package from there.

Luckily I have a actual mail service out here, it is a contractor but that is still better than having to go somewhere to get my mail.

All the services deliver to my home as well.

We do ship to PO boxes as I take the time to take all the boxes to the Post Office but it is a hassle when FedEx or UPS will pick up in a timely manner. To have to pay someone to fight traffic to wait in line and all that would add quite a bit to your shipping. That is why so many don't, it isn't because they are jerks....

Well only UPS, FedEx and DHL come out to our homes(which is a street address as You do live on a street I take It), The Mail does not come to our Homes, Just to the distant Post Office as I've said over and over again... :getting PISSED off: Hisssss

So why did all this start? Mwave would have shipped FedEx and didn't need your extra numbers....

BTW most if not all delivered goods offer you a "comment" section or attn line. you could use that line to add your full zip code.

I'm also very aware of odd mailing distributions. I knew a guy from Kentucky whose family name was their address. they were so far off the track that they had mail delivered by name because the people of the town didn't have any real streets.

Mwave does not do that online, I wish they would.

Mwave wants an address, city, state and a 5 digit zip code.

My bank has My address, city, state and a 9 digit zip code.

And so the two do not match and since mail out here needs that extra 4 digits I can't remove It, Ok??? Don't ask Me about this ANYMORE OK????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I got lost in all the talk about what is & isn't an address.
Was MWave able to process your order?

Nope, he ordered from Newegg instead.

I found that same 2nd pic when I looked earlier. Never knew those kind of adapters existed. I'm not thinking about getting something like that to do some playing around.

I dunno, every notebook I've had for the past 12 years .... the first thing that goes on them are those built-in WiFi modules. At least now-a-days, they're cheap :-)

If you insist on getting online stuff try getting a PO box

That's the problem Skildude, all he has is a PO Box. His town is so small they don't have a mail delivery service to their door. They have to pick the mail up in the local saloon or general store like in the old westerns on tv.

Must be nice to live in California, my box just arrived in Phoenix and will be here tomorrow.

Of course I have ordered something from Phoenix, selected standard shipping(3-5 days) and got it the next day.

Well I ordered the motherboard on Monday from Newegg and what do Ya know, UPS showed up and delivered It to Me at My door today, As soon as I get the I/O shield and the Mini pci-e card, I'll post pics of them, But for the moment Here's the 1st pic.

Oh and why does the box say Asus P6T SE? Simple Newegg reused an old box, It looks like they recycle some, Neat.

Hey thats my box....My P6T SE from newegg came in a plain box...

Not much snow left around me, a little further east there is still some up in the mountains. Farther east, they probably still have a foot or so!!

@SJ
Do you really have to go with the older 2-PCB version of the GTX295?? These seem to be far more prone to one of the GPUs having memory problems and returning lots of errors crunching with CUDA. The single PCB version seem to be far more reliable in this respect (though FiveHamlet seems to have scored a dud or two). Since you won't be buying "new" - no RMA. That's quite a risk.

If It's like New and not registered, No risk, In any case I don't know which one I'll be able to get as there is only one sure place to get a GTX295 of any type from now on(1 or 2 PCB), Oh I do know of a couple places that have new ones left, But I'm not telling, Thats My info.

As to the 2-PCB vs 1-PCB, I've heard that there is no voltage control in the 1-PCB version, That sounds like the fan is not software controllable in the 1-PCB GTX295 to Me, So I'd rather have the old ones, As I can just run the fan at 100% and keep the case as filtered for dust as I can.

I really can't believe that the fan speed cannot be controlled in the newer version. Hopefully someone who runs them (Dave [FiveHamlet]??) can confirm one way or the other?

I have two later model GTX295's..single board.
Fan speed is completely controllable via the EVGA Precision tool.
