    Yes it can be used for PSU reviews to measure ripple. Kayin has done it in the past.

    Way too low frequency for that sort of application! A 10+Ghz scope (what you'd need for a processor) is very specialised... And I'm not sure what tests you'd even perform with it...

    Have I maybe missed out on the point of what tests it could perform?

    Does that laptop IDE drive use a conventional ide ribbon, or require an adaptor?

    I've sent you a PM about the PCI graphics card (I didn't specify which card in the PM - I mean the older one)

    Would also appreciate pics of the monitor

    I'll get some pics together for ya, the laptop hard drive might be staying because I'm yet to wipe it of data - it needs an adapter

    If you were in the states I'd take those 10" CRTs off your hands. Not really interested in having it shipped across the pond though.

    Yeah I'd hate to have to skip them, they're really cool.

    Some updates:

    Radeon 4650 SOLD
    FireMV 2200 SOLD
    Mesh desktop PROVISIONALLY SOLD

    NEWLY AVAILABLE
    2 X 512mb Geforce 9600GT - £35 each, as with everything else open to offers on these

    Edit - £35 is probably a bit steep. One of you nice guys can have em for 30 each, or 50 for two...

    Stability of the supplied voltage under load. Check out HardOCP's PSU testing methodology for some more specific pointers. They really put them through hell and back...rather literally, actually..well, an oven at 45C, not hell, but they only have so much time for the review.

    OH. I read CPU, not PSU for some reason?!? Oh yeah it'd be well good for that. No storage on this one though.
