I knew that Convention center was shady, every time I tried to use a personal WiFi in there the connection was abysmal. I always figured it was due to the other folks using their WiFi hotspots as well. I'll be down there again this weekend, it will be interesting to see if the hotspots work...

I went from a Q6600 to the i3 Alpha, and am very pleased with its performance so far. I do a small amount of photography as well, (Pixelmator/GIMP) but that is mostly on my 2011 Macbook Pro with an i5 2415M. The two compare very closely to one another, so I would assume that the lighter work...

It took a lot of getting bounced around and talking to finally get them to even credit me a little bit of money back, $60, which I ended up just taking. On the Dell website they have a link to Price Match http://www.dell.com/learn/us/en/19/campaigns/free-shipping-easy-returns From there...

Ive been wanting to upgrade for some time now, and since I don't really play the latest and greatest games this looks like a nice upgrade for me. Knowing that my current setup is 7 years old (Q6600, along with a simple HD5570 I had to throw in when the original card died) Im just wondering if...

Is that just unique websites (such as cnn.com, or microsoft.com) or websites and their subdomains, etc?

The case reminds me of a slim PS2.

Same with me, I have to keep the alarm across the room from my bed, with the most annoying sound I can have on it.

I believe that EA may scale back the protection on RA3 due to the backlash against the DRM in Spore. I know that Mass Effect has some just silly protection on it, you need to register your CD-Key online to get the patch/extra content, and then the extra content itself comes with a CD-Key.

That is really, really, cool.

Here is a quick picture of the build: I'm still waiting on the extra fans to arrive, so I'm not doing anything strenuous to the machine, yet. I do have a question regarding fans, what do I want to achieve with the additional fans? I've got the two in the front, the side, the back, and...

I just finally upgraded to the multiple core bandwagon. My old rig: AMD Athlon 64, 2.0ghz 512 Kingston SDRAM DDR 3200 Some random PSU Gigabyte K8NS mobo Gigabyte GeForce 6800 (the neat one with an all passive heat sink) Some random case My sister still runs the same system, but with...

I will most defiantly post pictures for your enjoyment.

Although I'm sure it wouldn't happen, anyone else get an image in their mind of one of those punching clowns when they think of seeing the guys on the Segways start shooting?

All ordered, went with the vx550, thank you.

Thank you for the input, I'm not sure what I was thinking with the case/psu, it made sense at the time. I've changed to the XIGMATEK, Antec EA650, Antec Three Hundred, and the Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3L
