OK... RAM- check! I now have 1Gb DDR (1 apparently 'cause it's 184 pin)

NOw, I also got a FireGL video card... but my old one didn't need a power supply. How do I get power to the card?

cavit8 06-14-07 05:17 PM

You may have a power connector free, the same kind that goes to a hard drive. If not, apparently there's a Y connector that you can use supplied with the card: http://support.ati.com/ics/support/K...estionID=20432

These appear to be generic instructions - I couldn't find anything specific for the FireGL card

I_bRAD 06-14-07 05:21 PM

Didn't get one with the card...it was used, and I couldn't find a free power plug anywhere (I'll look again though). But for 20 bucks I'm not complaining.
Can I just get a connector from active surplus and splice into the power somewhere or am I just asking for trouble?

cavit8 06-14-07 05:50 PM

You should be able to buy one without splicing it yourself, Active surplus probably has them. How many drives do you have in there? I've got 2 drives, a DVD, CD and floppy drive powered in my box...

Socks don't count. Seriously, I have gads of stems sitting around from past fitting sessions. Let me know what you need and I'll probably have something sitting around.

I went out shopping yesterday up in Woodbridge with some friends and we were in Canadian Tire. So I decided to test ride a few bikes, and while doing that I noticed something weird. Canadian Tire has extra-long (71-91mm) non-recessed sidepull brakes for like $11. I've been looking for them on my single speed I'm building. I bought some on ebay, but I picked these up too.

They also have shorter ones.

I'm sure they aren't amazing brakes, but they'll do the job.
