    Computer Buzzing Noise

    I had my i7 920 in a Rampage II Gene and whenever I heard the noise, I knew the computer would lockup soon. Once the computer locks up, my only option is to hard reset or hard shutdown. Switching back to my P6T Deluxe board fixed it. I recently built two identical 1155 HTPCs and both of...

    Really Short RAM

    The half height RAM works fine as of now. Didnt boot up the first time. Took it out and re-seated and no problems. I wonder if the smaller PCB cuts energy consumption and heat.

    Really Short RAM

    I bought 2 of these from Amazon a week ago. Worked great and bought 2 more. The two that arrived today are much shorter. Same length and everything but are half as tall as the first 2. The info on the memory packaging says pretty much the same stuff except for some minor differences. The...

    Completely Fanless Computer

    Im playing around with the idea of running a silent 1156 computer. Anyone know what temps to expect running a stock clocked 1156 computer without any fans other than the PSU fan and 5770 fan? There will be a Cooler Master Hyper 212 being cooled passively positioned so heat rises from the...

    ASRock H55M-LE vs MSI H55M-E33

    MSI H55M-E33 vs ASRock Both can be found for exactly the same price. Was not able to cancel ASRock order before it shipped so I guess I created this thread in hopes that people will say the ASRock is better. But nonetheless, please give honest answers. This is a very budget build so...

    Sound Solution For Mini-ITX

    What would be the best option for audio for someone with a mini-ITX board. USB is the only choice as the PCI-E will be occupied.

    Asus P8P67-I Sandy Bridge Mini ITX

    Weak. They swapped out 7.1 audio for Wifi and Bluetooth. Its better to use USB wifi/bluetooth than USB 5.1 audio.

    SilverStone SG07 - New Mini-itx case

    Let me know what you do. I havent started this build yet and Im still thinking of a solution. I dont really want to screw the radiator to the grill of the AP. Its too DIY.

    SilverStone SG07 - New Mini-itx case

    He literally means just screw the H50/70 to the spiral grill of the AP. The hole mounts on the AP are 180mm. I tried looking for some 180mm to 120mm adapters, but only found 140mm to 120mm. You could do a 180mm to 140mm adapter on top of a 140mm to 120mm adapter to radiator but I dont think...
