+1 for HT Omega. Same experience for me on Asus and Creative sound cards (driver issues etc)

Unless the killer nic does what it's supposed to I think the non-black edition of the rampage iii extreme is a better buy. I was hoping to get one of these motherboards but not now after reading about the disappointing performance of the killer nic. Oh well great review as always and...

I have these and the razer chimaeras. Overall I like the logitechs a lot more.

Just got the ASUS ROG gtx580 Matrix. Incredible card. Can't get it above 50c no matter how much I overclock it. And I can burn the profile so I don't have to load oc every time. Plus it has a reset switch in case I burn an oc that it can't handle.

Actually I finally got 1080p over hdmi but only at 24hz. I guess that's just how the technology works. A friend of mine has an extra emitter and glasses so I will borrow the emitter to have 120hz refresh at 1080p.

OK I just got this monitor. I am using hdmi (cause apparently the built in emitter only works with hdmi). Although the demos look great whenever I start a 3d game like burnout paradise or UT3 I get an error message that my resolution is not compatible with hdmi 1.4 3d. No matter what...

I like my altec lansing backbeats.

Pick Me! Pick Me!

For mindless fun I play Kung Fu Panda.

I have one of those laptops and I just put an x9100 3.2 ghz dual core processor in it. It made a big difference in some of the games. Also I oc'd the graphics card to 620mhz which helped a lot too. But yeah these particular laptops ahve different variants of mobos in them and some won't...

A friend of mine has a r.a.t. 7 with a problematic sensor. We tried a bunch of different mouse pads and the only one that worked with no problems was an xtrac pad with the hex design. I think it was an xtrac hammer.

I have one of these cards. I'm no longer using it. Every once and a while the sound would get totally distorted with the only way to fix would be a reboot. Also sometimes the process of putting the sound over hdmi when watching TV would cause the video signal to flash on and off. You can...

My vote is for the HT Omega eClaro.

Asus Xonar or even better HT Omega.

Monitor the gpu temperature. Perhaps some games stress the card more than others. Try underclocking the gpu a bit to seee if that helps.
