Need to see the difference between SATA and PATA connectors? How about ATX vs. ATX 2.2 power cables? CPU socket types and RAM edge connector differences? You'll find it all in this handy single graphic posted here... pretty nifty: www.101funs.com/possib...-save-asd/ _________________ "Once your reputation is ruined, you can live quite freely."

Wow.
That's like the computer equivalent of the Evolution of Man picture.

- Shades Wow. That's like the computer equivalent of the Evolution of Man picture. Yep! Although I saw they left out VESA slot types, I guess it's time to let the 90's go. And MFM/RLL HD connector types and S100 bus slots would have done well to represent the Neanderthal period. _________________ "Once your reputation is ruined, you can live quite freely."
