    Recommend a CPU cooler for an i7 2600k

    So far so good! The all black look is awesome - I'm used to all the boards with a bunch of colors. I haven't had a chance to play around in the Bios much yet, but hope to this weekend. I was happy that all of my components went together without a hiccup and fired right up.

    Recommend a CPU cooler for an i7 2600k

    Fellas, I'm having a tough time deciding on a cpu cooler for my new build. I'm currently running the stock cooler. I do plan on overclocking my 2600k, just haven't done so yet (just built it this weekend). I'm not trying to set any oc records either, just a nice mild overclock. I'm very...

    120Hz LCD Info Thread

    I have the AW2310 and I like it alot. I just transitioned from my 1999 Dell Trinitron CRT 19" :) I actually ordered the DELL 2209WA and the AW2310 at the same time thinking I was going to keep both for different purposes. We use IPS panels at work and I like them alot for web...

    How hard is it for a gamer to transition from a mx518 to g500?

    Fellas, I've been running a mx518 for years and wanted to try something new. The 2 on the short list are the g500 and the deathadder. Went to Best Buy and both feel comfortable, actually the DA felt a tad better because of the side buttons. After researching here, it seems the 1800 dpi...

    Just ordered the Dell UltraSharp 2209WA

    Hey guys, I need quick confirmation I setup my custom resolution @75Hz correctly. I feel like it was too easy! All I did was under Advance Custom Resolutions, was change Timing Standard: Automatic to CVT Reduced Blank and bump up the Refresh Rate to 75. Is that it? I don't have to muck...

    Just ordered the Dell UltraSharp 2209WA

    I haven't gotten any replies in my other thread, so I will ask here, which is probably more appropriate. I just wanted to know if anyone else feels the text and colors aren't outstanding? I know alot of you are praising the text and colors, but I use an older 2001FP IPS panel at work and...

    Need help with 2209WA and Alienware 23" OptX

    Fellas, I'm making an attempt to ditch my 19" Dell CRT for hardcore competitive gaming purposes. I purchased both these monitors in hope one would wow me over, but both have issues, according to my eyes :) But before I start sending monitors back to Dell, I want to be sure I've tried...

    Which Keyboard should I get? Deck Legend vs Logitech g19

    Omerta, what board did you have before? The pics of the deck boards make it seem like the F keys are a bit further up on the board than most commercial boards. I'm not sure if you can comment on this or not, but I need those F keys for gaming! I'm in the market for a new board and really...

    What video card for 120Hz monitor?

    So, checked another thread, not sure if this still stands, but I would be looking at $350-380 for the GTX460 and $600-625 for the GTX480. Are these the only 2 flavors they are releasing this month?

    What video card for 120Hz monitor?

    Good info kllr, thank you. I was set on getting the 5850 or better, but I keep reading on BFBC2's forums about long map loads, artifcat issues, etc with ATI drivers. I know some are running fine, but I've never bought ATI before and now I have cold feet about it. As for DX11, from what I...

    What video card for 120Hz monitor?

    How would I know what cards can run one of these monitors at 120Hz? Kllr, I want to wait, but I'm gettin' antsy :) Are nvidia cards way overpriced right now like ATI's are? I saw the 275 on sale for $198 and from what I see online that is a pretty good deal, no? I wonder if a 275 could...

    What video card for 120Hz monitor?

    Eh, for now just refresh. I want to upgrade my card regardless, but I want to try one of these 120Hz monitors to see if its a decent replacement for my CRT. If not, its going back and I will just keep the card until something better comes along.
