    looking for an upgrade, is the A10 a decent option?

    I just got a A10 5800 with the Asrock Extreme 6 and 2x4gb of Gskill Sniper 1866. It ran me $280+shipping on newegg. I had a 6770 lying around from my HTPC which I also added. The hardware i replaced was a Q6600, EVGA 780i A1, 2x4gb of Gskill ddr2 1066 and a 8800 gts 512 Clearly, given...

    UPS/Power Conditioner for use with Gas Generator

    Thanks Nanan ill check that one out. And Sockman, from what i understand, the issue with generators is that they surge energy. They don't confine well to the 120V or whatever its supposed to be. Then again, i'm not an electrician. Really, its times like this where i wish i understood...

    UPS/Power Conditioner for use with Gas Generator

    I am one of many thousands of people in New England without power after an ice storm last week. The local power authority has estimated up to 2 weeks before we get power back. I currently have a 3500W Gas Generator powering my house. I am well aware that you can not run a computer off of a...

    Whats better an HD4850 1GB Version or an HD4870 512 MB Version?

    I would definitely lean towards the 4870, the increased GPU horsepower is going to have more effect on performance than the extra 512mb. of memory. Most games aren't going to properly utilize that much video memory anyways.

    A Guide to Encoded HD Video Playback

    Thank you so much for putting this guide together, it was a major help. Was using VLC with the default codecs to play hd movies and well...they just didnt play haha. Now the onboard video on my crappy 610i motherboard plays 1080p like a champ.

    Thinking about buying the Acer F-22

    I'm looking at new monitors and im thinking about this one. I can get it through a distributor at my work for $286.25. My use for it is 100% gaming. No real concerns about image quality for any other use. Is this a good buy? is there something else in this price range i should be looking at...

    Would this be good for gaming?

    Yeah, full 1080P resolution on a 22" is going to look sharp as hell. The dot pitch is low, and its 5ms. If it was 2ms, it would be better, but thats asking a lot from a hdtv.
