    Claims money from Fedex = Upgrades!! Suggestions please...

    Yeah I'll definitely look into the quad-core. And it looks like the Corsair PS is at a pretty decent price right now (with rebate), so I'll stick with that. But otherwise, everything looks good? No major changes anyone would make?

    Claims money from Fedex = Upgrades!! Suggestions please...

    So I shipped my computer to my new place out of state, and they dropped it/otherwise destroyed it, and I was able to drag $600 out of them through the claims process (which I'm OK with - it was a 5 year old machine I had built back when I started college). So now its time to build it anew...

    Best 19" LCD for gaming in the $300 range?

    I would, but I don't like the fact that its a 6-bit panel with 16.2 million colors. Color depth and accuracy is huge for me.

    Best 19" LCD for gaming in the $300 range?

    Anyone think its safe to buy the L90D+ again? I'd really like to buy one - its a great monitor at a great price - save for the vertical line thing. Its been a while since people have been having the vertical line issue - you'd think the problem batch of panels would be done by now. :confused:

    Annoying noise during DVD playback

    All right I'm going to try to explain this as best I can. When playing DVDs via my DVD-R drive (its a Lite-On SOHW-1693S), I hear a really annoying whining noise through the speakers behind the sound of the DVD itself. It is a noise very similar to the high-pitched whine the actual drive makes...

    Dell delivery estimate?

    which LCD did you order? - that could make a difference as well, depending on how much demand they've got at the moment

    Zalman is NUTS

    How do i take apart my laptop?

    the keyboard is definitely the easiest part to replace on a laptop. It's usually just a matter of a few screws to remove the plastic cover by the keyboard, lifting it out and undoing the cable from the mobo.

    Dell’s UltraSharp 2005FPW widescreen 20-inch LCD monitor.

    Out of curiosity, how many sales reps did you end up talking to in this hour? I'm looking to buy a 2405, but haven't been having much luck with the reps I"ve talked to.
