    Can a faulty PSU cause this?

    In the past week my computer has developed a quark. Whenever I shut it down, it will not boot up unless I unplug and replug the power cord (no wait in between). The fans will run and the power LED turns on, but no monitor signal and no post. The system will also shut off instantaneously when I...

    Streacom FC8 EVO Workstation

    I bought it OEM from Amazon out of convenience, but I did see it in a few different places.

    Streacom FC8 EVO Workstation

    So my father needed a new workstation computer for his business, basically a computer to run MS Office, Adobe Acrobat, Chemdraw, etc etc. I figured this would be a perfect time to build a fanless computer, mainly because I've always wanted to build one, and also because he needed something quiet...

    Best low power gaming rig

    I'm running an AMD A10 5800k, 750 Ti, 8 gigs of ram, and a single SSD on a 160 watt picoPSU with 1 fan (thread here). You can push the power consumption even lower by start with an i3 or i5.

    Silent SFF Gaming Build

    I don't do anything too CPU demanding. Maybe some photoshopping and light video editing here and there, nothing that the current CPU hasn't handled fine. For now I think the computer is perfect the way it is :). And thanks for the link Stevo_. That's very interesting! I especially like the...

    Silent SFF Gaming Build

    UPDATE: Alright it's been almost a year and time for an update! I have replaced the HD 7750 with an EVGA GTX 750 Ti 2GB card. Man this little card is fast for 60 watt TDP! I can play almost any game at medium/high settings at 1080p now. I also threw on an Arctic Accelero S1 Plus heatsink to...

    Silent SFF Gaming Build

    I run a 192 watt brick and it actually doesn't get terribly hot.

    Silent SFF Gaming Build

    Half a year ago I set out to build a very specific computer. I realized that I didn't need a computer that can play games at maximum graphics anymore. I wanted a quality PC that can double as a media PC, a gaming PC, and a normal workstation. So my goals for this computer were for it to be...

    $50 headphones

    how will the JVC one compare to Philips SHP8500 (found them for cheap at a local store 2 years ago).

    $50 headphones

    I also forgot to mention that it should somewhat block out external noises. The JVC one looks like it'll block out more noise than the first two.

    $50 headphones

    I'm looking for a pair of around your ear headphones for music listening and gaming. Since I'm buying this off of a giftcard the price cannot be over $50 including shipping. Currently i'm looking at a pair of Sennheiser EH-150, can anyone comment of it or give me another suggestion? Thanks

    New SFF gamers case: presentation and advices

    Finally finished my transfer to Da Box Case without panels on. I know I know the cables are a mess but it's hard to cram so many things in without a modular power supply :eek:. More cable mess. I have officially given up trying to manage the cables. Side panels on. Theres a Zalman...
