    How To: How Do I Stream Steam to TV?

    Ah, so its only Pay To Play type thing? That looks simple as I requested. I thought I had to do some networking and could do it free, or as is. $60 it is! Off to EB. -=M=-

    How To: How Do I Stream Steam to TV?

    I am looking for a (very) layman How To on how to stream my Steam library to our t.v. We have a Samsung HDTV, I have Steam, and I have a 770, and wifi/cable network. I am assuming I can either use a wifi dongle from the t.v. to the network or cat5 it. Hoping those things are addressed in...

    EVGA RMA: 560ti SC > 560 Reg > 650ti 2 GB ?

    That sounds legit! I paid the $30 bux extra for 2 year in-store warranty. Hopefully Memory Express AND Asus are not in cahoots together... Dun duun duuuuun!

    EVGA RMA: 560ti SC > 560 Reg > 650ti 2 GB ?

    I called again... just to see... I explained what card I had, and what I was sent two diff times. The CSR laughed, and said that was odd, that was a downgrade. He went and checked on it and came back with a diff tone. All "Pro 650", telling me how much better it is. I said never mind, I'm...

    EVGA RMA: 560ti SC > 560 Reg > 650ti 2 GB ?

    On the original 560Ti SC, one of the fans started making a noise, and physically you could feel it was binding. I kept an eye on temps knowing this for a good month, but one day it obviously failed while I was gaming. I got a game freeze, shut down but before it shut down I was able to see...

    EVGA RMA: 560ti SC > 560 Reg > 650ti 2 GB ?

    I had a 1Gb 560Ti SC (Two Fans). After a year+ one fan died and it went up in smoke. RMAed it with no prob. I received a 2gb 560 Reg in the mail (single fan) for the RMA. It is so loud and because of the speed diff (I realize I can OC it, but two fan to one fan does make a difference) I...

    I'm Stuck On Stupid: Q9550 or Upgrade to AMD

    I really do appreciate your work going into this. Thanks folks. What type/brand of ram would you recommend with your B choice? Since I dont really bother with OC'ing anymore, I have found good ol'Kingston cheap to work. I am overwhelmed by my local shops amount of choices of memory...

    I'm Stuck On Stupid: Q9550 or Upgrade to AMD

    All good input - appreciate all your responses. I suspect my cpu is "fine" for the most part. Where does cost/performance intersect? Should I wait until August (end of oil season = bonus) and just spend @$500 on a psu/gpu upgrade, maybe get 2x 2gb (for 8gb total) ddr2? Wait one more round...
