I dooooo have a MicroCenter nearby and I haven't been there in ages (usually buy everything online). do they usually have everything out to play with or so I have to go opening boxes myself lol

I've been reading about mechanical keyboards and the differences between all the different "color" switches. I'm really interested in purchasing one but I don't know which switch I'd like the best. I've read the descriptions but I don't think i'll "know" which one until I touch them and just...

I'm not at home but I know I have a D0. I made sure of it back in the day from a Micro Center sale.

Over in the Video Card thread it was suggested I OC my i7 920 because I was worried about getting a new 7970 or 670 with my old CPU being a bottleneck. I've never overclocked anything before but I'm technically proficient. I've seen a lot of guides just by searching Google but does anyone...

lol I didn't realize I've had that 920 for about 4 years now it's like a dinosaur is in my PC

wow i'm so noob I'm guessing since it's square you can point 'em w/e way you want so which way to do you point those things. down towards the bottom of the case, up towards the video card or front or back facing. Up towards the video card seems like a bad idea

I'm a bit hesitant to do that with my stock cooler on it. I probably need to research what's safe for that processor OC with stock cooling. I do seem to recall the talk about that CPU when I bought it that it was a really good overclocker.

I'm looking to upgrade my video card so I can play Far Cry 3, Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite and Crysis 3 comfortably @ 1920x1080. I've got the funds for a 670 or a 7970 but it's a bit of a stretch. Am I wasting my money looking at those cards with the CPU I have? Current Specs...
