    Is this PSU sufficient?

    Elaborate on your unhelpful statement please. Was I under or over estimating? Nonetheless, I just used some of the info from the following: http://www.anandtech.com/show/2923/7...

    Is this PSU sufficient?

    Motherboard? Will there be any other component running off the build (incl USB devices)? That PSU you linked would give you a realistic steady efficient 344 watts. Nonetheless, you could skate on ice with that PSU. Your video card alone has a 450 watt recommendation. The next model up will...

    Mobo 8 pin power connector

    Yes and no. Depends what you are running off the motherboard. For example, when I just used a 4pin on my old AMD 955 BE build (before overclocking) some of the case fans running off the motherboard 3pins did not have enough power and as soon as I connected the 8pin instead all fans worked. To...

    Seeking an awesome PSU

    Corsair HX and AX series PSUs. I got a HX750 and HX850 and both are exceptional. Over one year old for both now, and never had any issues/problems. Seasonic are not the only ones that manufacture their own PSUs. HX750 $141.99 USD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139010...

    I don't know what to get for a new pair of headphones

    Keep away from Sony. My DJ MDR V500 and (now thrown away) MDR V700 model headphones (used in home studio and not on the road) have deteriorated around the cups. Now I have complete strangers telling me when I go out in public places I have strange black pieces around my ears. :( The age of both...

    Any good cheap keyboards that light up?

    I got one too. Bought it after the bugs were ironed out last year. Never regret it. However, it is not always responsive quick enough for fast paced gaming (such as FPS). I use the Logitech Illuminated for mainly typing and the Microsoft SideWinder X6 (which also is backlit) for gaming.

    Why are all of these new mice coming out with braided cords?

    Well, the braided cords have their cons, but the pros outweigh the cons. Too many times my mice cords would deteriorate over time due to humidity and oils from fingers (and throwing the mouse across the room in fits of rage whilst playing games). At least the braided cords could be used as a...

    Passive CPU cooling possible?

    Yes. It is possible to passive cool even with stock volts and frequency, so long as your case has great airflow. Though, as some other members have expressed, you are better off on the safe side to get a aftermarket cooler with low rpm fans. There are quite a few heatsinks that can accommodate...

    Vdroop? Do you leave it enabled?

    I leave LLC on for my i7-870, i5-750 and i7-950 builds. I like the idea of getting more life out of cpus.

    Guys need help for Gaming Processor, pulling trigger tonight.

    Hi Marcdaddy. Nice components. Those OCZ SSDs are about to have a massive price drop due to version 3 coming out. Let me know how those sticks of ram go. I was thinking about those GTs for my 1156 build. Hopefully you can reach 2000Mhz with no more than 1.65v and CR1|1T. Isn't that PSU overkill...

    Out of curiosity, what motherboard model is it?

    What resolution do you play at?

    Yes, this I know. However, when in a car you are able to move your head around the joints. Different perception. Not everyone likes gaming in multi display. Now, if only there was one single long display... :)
