    ASUS RT-N10P as a wireless repeater?

    Hi, According to specs which I have RT-N10P has a repeater mode. It won't be breaking any speed records but it should give you wider wifi coverage.

    Ivy bridge stock cooler making high pitched whistling noise?

    In matter of sounds it really down to personal preference annoying whistle or hum of a fan is normal to another individual. However I tested a number of stock coolers, and they all are pretty quiet. So if yours is making noise, I'd assume bad fan. Is it brand new? never used before?

    Wireless router range problem

    Any regular router with 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz band will give you about the same signal strength and range. People are very brand oriented these days and don't realize that in terms of routers they all basically the same, its either Broadcom or Ralink chipset that handles the WiFi portion, difference...

    Help deciding on a new sound card.

    I'm using Xonar Essence by ASUS and I have to say it gives off a really good clean sound. Mostly use earphones beats by dre and by far Xonar gave me much better sound compared to onboard x-fi (Crosshair IV Formula) and SB Gold which I had from previous comp.

    Wireless G Modem/router with N router connected

    You will not get a range increase since 801.11G and 802.11G have the same theoretical range. Additionally 5Ghz frequency has more trouble with walls and looses more singlan strenght with each wall it goes through. You get the benefit of security since your roomates will not have access to...

    Asus vs MSI

    I hate to start a heated discussion but I got a friend, a so-called professional overclocker (if such profession exists) and here we have GTX570 and I think GTX560 from ASUS after one contest... I'm not going to say that OC will produce this result every single time... but after sending...

    Asus vs MSI

    Most high end card avilable now are fast enough to handle any game out there right now. Don't see much point in OCing a video card, unless just for sport and like in any sport, sooner or later you get hurt. I know many feel that it almost a matter of honor to buy a brand new high end card and...

    Asus vs MSI

    Brand is just a brand. Nvidia made the chip, nanya or samsung or elpida did the memory... board design is almost irrelevant as is the cooling solution. I tested several ASUS 660 TI and they are no better (and not worse) than the competition. The differences in GPU speeds and memory speeds show...

    ASUS M4A87TD EVO Motherboard & Voltage issue

    Here is a test question. If you set everything to Auto, boot into Windows, check voltages with say OCCT, put the comp to sleep, wake it up, check voltages again, are they also higher after the comp. wakes up or are the normal which would indicate that the MB properly regulates voltages?

    Can I replace the socket on my P6t dlx?

    The whole problem with socket 775, 1156, 1366 boards is the LGA design. Right now most CID (customer induced damage) cases among motherboards are LGA damage related. I'm surprised that ASUS even conciders replacing a socket in USA, in Europe it has to be an extreme special case to re-solder the...

    Picked up a Asus M4A785TD-V Evo for new build have a ?

    What are you basing that on? PCIe x4 has 2GB/s data rate, virtually any card (that is worth anything) on the market now exceeds this data rate by far, so if the 2nd PCIe is only x4 it will be a big bottle neck. I did a QUAD Crossfire on 4 ASUS EAH4770 formulas on ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer...

    HELP!! New 5870 won't let me to POST

    Do you know what chipset is the MB based on? Generally Nvidia chipsets rarely had problems with new graphics cards even ATI, but old VIA and sometimes Intel based boards would often throw a fit, especially those that had PCIe 1.0 controller.

    Here is a list who what kind of throughput selected videocards need http://forums.tweaktown.com/f69/16x-pci-e-vs-8x-pci-e-crossfire-sli-answer-33367/ In SLI and Crossfire the 2nd card always works slower then the first one, same with tri-SLI and QUAD Crossfire, in my personal opinion it is...
