    samsung px2370 won't wake up

    Wow been close to a year since i lasted posted on this. Sadly as i stated I never went back to find an answer to this as I dont think there is one. My overall impression of Samsung while the view experience has been positive is that their Quality Control is very lacking. I have 2 monitors...

    Water cooling newbie

    barbs are fittings. if you decide to go with barbs you really should get some type of clamp to hold them in place. I would suggest you read the stickies up top to get a better idea of what i am talking about or at least look at pictures of machines to see them. As far as how much rad you...

    Water cooling newbie

    Not going to tell you what blocks to use as it seems they all do a great job and everyone has their opinions. I have heard great things about your CPU block choice so no worries about it. Now the rad. As i own the case you do know in order to use a 480 you will have to cut the top off and...

    samsung px2370 won't wake up

    I removed the HDMI cables from both and replaced with DVI. Walked away for 30 minutes and excited to see that shaking the mouse so far woke them up quickly. Not sure why HDMI does not work but at this point not worth my time if i get the same video quality to worry about it.

    did a ton of searching on this issue with finding a few people reporting but no solution. basic problem is if i walk away from the computer for like 30 minutes the monitors go into standby and shaking the mouse or hitting a key on the keyboard wont wake them up. I have 2 of them and they both...

    Single Loop i7 980x (2) 480gtx sli and 800D build w/ pics

    Well I heard the ATI cards run cooler then the NVIDIA cards so that will help a lot. Your options are you could cut the top of the case and install a 120.4 which is something i thought about doing as well. All you need is a rad grill to mount to and your good. Also could mount an external rad...

    Everything installed revision 1 :p Filling proved to be a PITA since air would not come out. We rigged up a way for the air to escape a little easier :D And now the leak test

    Single Loop i7 980x (2) 480gtx sli and 800D build w/ pics

    First thing that I did was remove the bottom hard drive bay. Very common mod so wont go into detail on how to do it. Instead of going with the bottom mount rad i decided to do a side mount. I got a rad guard and cut out the back side of the case to install it for the push/pull setup...
