    Acer Iconia W700 club :D

    I have been on the fence about trading in my Asus Transfomer Prime w/ keyboard dock for one of these. I am an avid League of Legends player, and the prospect of a tablet that can play that (as well as many other games) is extremely enticing to me. Do any of you W700 owners play full versions of...

    Help me find a replacement fan assembly for Asus 5870 w/ reference cooler!

    Gavinni, if I could kiss you via the interwebs I would. You're a saint. I just purchased the ebay one! For anyone curious, yes I did touch base with Asus, the card was out of warranty, and they refused to sell me a fan (Support directing me to estore, Estore telling me to contact support...

    Help me find a replacement fan assembly for Asus 5870 w/ reference cooler!

    Asus support just pointed me to the ESTORE, which is next to useless :( I think I'll have better luck finding someone with a stock HSF on here and swapping it out. Unfortunately, I don't have enough posts to post in B/S/T yet!

    The Million $ question: 680x1 vs 580x2 for surroundview

    I see you have 3 monitors, does the single 680 push 5760x1080 in bf3 without issue?

    The Million $ question: 680x1 vs 580x2 for surroundview

    The 580s definitely are power hungry cards, and throw a considerable amount of heat. I have everything I need to do "the mod" to my GTX580s (remove the stock HSF and adapt Antec Kuhler 620 closed loop liquid coolers onto them), so any card could be pretty dang quiet after that mod! I just was...

    The Million $ question: 680x1 vs 580x2 for surroundview

    ^^^ Thats what I was thinking. I currently get about 10,900 in 3dmark11, and I know single 680 systems can break 10,000 so I think the performance hit would be minimal. Toss in less power draw, and an overall quieter system? It really has me tempted. Also, my 27" monitors are HDMI/DVI/DP, so I...

    The Million $ question: 680x1 vs 580x2 for surroundview

    Hey [H], One of my first posts here, so go easy on the noob! I currently have, well, the build in my sig. I game on 3x 27" 60Hz monitors, and the SLI of 580s works dang close to flawless for me. Unfortunately, they are getting less valuable by the minute (as with all hardware), so I am left...

    Migrate XenServer --> ESXi

    Hi, I am hoping to migrate 2 VMs from Xenserver 6 to ESXi 5. I have 1 mission critical machine (Server 2008 r2 DC) that needs to experience minimal downtime (1 hour or less would be prefered). Should I just export the image to OVF format from the xen console (after removing xen tools) then...

    Need help picking ESXi compatible HBA

    I've had a complete change of heart since my last post, but for kicks I might as well explain my new direction: I already have a Poweredge 1950 running XenServer (I know, gross, not ESXi but my work is a Citrix shop so I'm trying to become more proficient). Rather then building a new physical...
