I am re-building my home PC and I am looking for a good web bulletin
board / community site where I can pose a few questions and some good
answers.  I am not looking for web pages that provide technical
information or 'how to' guides.  I want an interactive bulletin board
community, that has a decent size member base, accepts new users, and
offers high-level advice.  The bulletin board I need suggested will
have to provide reasonabily advanced advice; I will be doing things to
my computer like tweaking the BIOS and using unusual hardware
configurations and I would ideally like decent advice from
experienced, friendly people. Please help me find two (2) bulletin
boards that look appropriate. English only please.

that's really hard to say a board that provide you decent advive or
not, that is all depends on the users not the board really. but i
would suggest http://www.tech-forums.net/ they got some overclockers
with currently 172 users active and a category called NEW Technology
Services & Products.


i hope this help you

You will probably find most high-level geeks hang out in Usenet rather
than on web-based fora, which are regarded as a bit naff by many.
