  1. Man that extreme card is one sexy looking card, I was never a fan of triple slot cards but that carbon look finish looks amazing and actually disguises the 'Bulky' look of triple slot cards quite well and I bet it also goes with any color theme build unlike some other brands that instill just red and therefore you're forced to go with a red theme or else theres gonna be a clash of colors(but then again thats just me been OCD )
  2. Ok guys, thanks for the info, I have decided to go for the ZyXel as I'll be using it for home network more then anything, LANs only ever happen once in a blue moon for me nowadays.The ZyXel one seems to fit my needs better. Again THANKS all for the quick replys.
  3. Hi everyone! I need help deciding which switch to get, I'll be Using it for: LANs ( eg. gaming, filesharing) I have 2 choices: http://www.zyxel.com/us/en/products_services/gs_108s.shtml?t=p or http://www.dlink.com.au/products/?pid=229 My question is which will be better in terms of what I'll be using it for, I'm leaning towards the Zyxel one as it is an 8 port one and the D-Link one is only 5 port, they are both equally priced. Another bit of info/Question : The Zyxel switch is called a Gigabit Ethernet MEDIA Switch (Zyxel has another one thats just a Gigabit Ethernet Switch) and the D-Link is also just a Gigabit Ethernet Switch, what is the difference between a MEDIA Ethernet Switch and a NORMAL Ethernet Switch? Thanks in advance.
