    New Build - Looking for Suggestions

    Philly is about 5.5 hrs from me, unfortunately. But....I'm only about 2 hrs from their Cleveland store which might be worth the drive. As far as overclocking, I've done it with my previous builds but, it's really not necessary. I just know I have a tendency to want a bit more. I'd be happy...

    New Build - Looking for Suggestions

    It's been a few years since I built my last PC. I'm pricing out a new build that will be used mainly for Photoshop CS6, Lightroom 4, and mild gaming. I'm currently using a 21.5" iMac with 3.06ghz c2d and I find it struggling to process my Nikon D800's 40-50mb files. 1) What will you be...

    Orthos/Prime stable OC, then random system crash? E6750, DS3R

    Here's an update on things I have tried. Nothing is helping so far. I think I am going to have to RMA the board.

    Orthos/Prime stable OC, then random system crash? E6750, DS3R

    Yeah, that's very similar to what I'm experiencing, but I'm not able to OC again. I also had 450x8 to 3.6ghz and it ran great. Now all the sudden this? Edit: I also have ds3r rev 1.0

    Orthos/Prime stable OC, then random system crash? E6750, DS3R

    I got my system put together recently and started to OC it. Everything was going fine, I was able to get the processor up to 3.6 GHz. I ran Orthos and Prime for 6-8hrs just to double-check everything and CPU temps never exceeded 50*C, typically around 48*C. They hover right around 22-23*C at...

    Fresh build, no display? Please help

    Ok, stupid mistake on my part. I forgot to plug in the 4 pin 12v connector. Now the display works, but I still cannot connect my keyboard or mouse. Do I have to have a wired setup? I guess that would kind of make sense since there are no drivers installed.

    FS: Nintendo Wii and Dell AXIM x51v

    Is that a typo on the Dell? $25 shipped, I'll take it!

    $1000 budget build, am I missing anything?

    Thanks for the response. I originally had the Tuniq Tower 120 on there but newegg ran out of stock. That's what I plan to run, though. Thanks again!

    7950gx2, which motherboard

    I'm in need of some urgent help. I need to click the "Checkout" button on my newegg cart tonight, or early tomorrow morning. I am trying to put together a new PC build and I already have an Asus 7950gx2 video card. I need to know which motherboard to couple with this vga for optimal results...

    $1000 budget build, am I missing anything?

    So, since gaming is not my number one priority, I saved myself $90 and picked up a used 7950gx2. Do I need to change my motherboard selection in order to accommodate the 7950gx2? Are SLi capable mobo's required for this card? Here's an updated look at my newegg cart:

    I do plan on using the 64 bit Home Premium version. Thanks for the links.

    $1000 budget build, am I missing anything?

    Thanks again, guys. Unfortunately, my budget doesn't afford the q6600 or 4gb's of RAM.

    $1000 budget build, am I missing anything?

    Thanks a lot for the fast responses. I really appreciate the help. I am planning on running a 19" LCD. I really don't need anything bigger. I have seen a few on newegg that are right around my price range, I just can't decide on what brand to go with. This Acer seems to be a good deal...
