I have three ASUS VS239H-P monitors connected through DVI, two are connected to the Radeon R9 270x and one is connected to the motherboard. My problem is that on the two monitors connected to the Radeon, all videos have jagged edges like this: http://i.imgur.com/NYbGANc.png versus smooth edges...

Crystal Disk Info should be able to tell you what model the actual HDD is.

Their limited information say that it has up to 40GB/s PCIe 3.0 bandwidth which comes out to 40 lanes. That's the same number of lanes as the X79 chipset from 2011 (although that one is PCIe 2.0) so I'll believe the 40GB/s number. Supposing each Thunderbolt 2 port gets 20Gb/s (note: bits vs...

Seems like the LOW P model only comes with the low profile bracket, when I got my regular M1015 it came with both brackets.

You think they make those PCI-Express cards with way over 1GB/s transfer speeds and never bother to make a single model that can saturate SATA III? SATA (at least III) uses 8b/10b encoding which means the theoretical transfer speed is 80% of the technical, so 600 MB/s (EDIT: as stated here). Add...

Perhaps you could consider buying a replacement battery for your current UPS? http://www.batterymart.com/c-replacement-apc-ups-batteries.html

What is very fast about a change of less than 1% for any of the resolutions?

How do powerline ethernet adapters work? How do HDMI to ethernet adapters work? Is the HDMI signal converted into a standard ethernet signal (802.3, Ethernet frame), or is it just taking advantage of the wires of an ethernet cable and utilizing its own signal? What about the powerline...

Disappointed at PNY's packing design. http://www.mylilsite.net/images/sandybridge-1/t2graphicsPacking2.jpg http://www.mylilsite.net/images/sandybridge-1/t2graphicsCard2.jpg Bent the plate back with pliers and it works in my Q6600 system for now. I also did not expect the CPU box's lines...

Good news guys, I ordered the ASUS P8Z68-V PRO and will be leaving a note on my door to say to reject the Asrock delivery of which a friend just confirmed for me that Newegg gives 100% refund (including the shipping cost) that way.

Ah, since I filtered as any Z68 board and sorted by Most Reviews (and mentally ignored mATX results, 'cause I'm too lazy to do further filters), I would have to go down the list pretty far to see either of the possible $170 and $210 Gigabyte boards... On the other hand, I sorted by Most Reviews...

The Gigabytes have no onboard monitor out ports, no mention of support for Quick Sync through Virtu in the specs on their site or Newegg, and have equally lacking information in the user reviews regarding the sole feature that even made me want a Z68 board. The MSI somehow managed to get...

lol, replies over a day later... eek.. So I ordered all but the CPU about an hour before your post, Danny. :p The motherboard was changed though. I figured that if I end up using my current PSU then I way underblew my target budget, so I'm going with the ASRock Z68 Extreme4 and the 2600K for...

So I've ordered the Crucial 64GB CTFDDAC064MAG-1G1 as a Shell Shocker for $89.99 + tax. Its almost the same model as the one in my parts list but I can't actually tell whats different about it other than the one I ordered has 5 eggs and more reviews. $178.00 SILVERSTONE RV02B-EW - Amazon...
