    Getting back to PC gaming

    Thanks Danny Bui. I haven't looked at the combo deals quite yet, Newegg wishlists don't let you load combo's into them but I did see that. Thanks for the heads up though. I didn't know that about the RAM, and I only picked that particular DDR3 1600 because it was on the mobo's compatibility...

    Getting back to PC gaming

    I had the 650 originally chosen, but I was hoping to pick a PSU first time around that would allow me to upgrade into an SLI setup further down the road without buying a new one. Do you think either of those, the 650 or 750, would be able to power 2 x GTX 570s? I could spend a bit more for a...

    "Not Enough Free Space" with 859GB avail....

    I just bought a WD 'My Book' external HDD. It's the terabyte model with a USB connection and my intent was to use it to store DVDs on it so I don't need to have disks around. I ripped some DVDs to my desktop using DVD Decryptor into .VOB files of about 4 gb's in size each. I have plenty of space...

    Odd RROD question...

    So I've got a 360 here. Had it for about 2 years and now its starting to break. I'll turn it on and the picture is very glossy, its hard to describe.

    Connecting the 360 wirelessly

    I just got a 360 and want to get it set up with Live. I've got a wireless network set up at my house with WEP encryption and a MAC address permissions list. Hardwiring the 360 sadly isn't an option right now and I was wondering what my options for connecting it wirelessly are. I don't really...

    Flaky Connection when Hardwired

    I've got a home network set up using a Linksys WRT54G and some repeaters. Several computers are connected to this network wirelessly and all perform fine.

    Using big HDTV as a monitor

    Well. I use the ATI Catalyst Center to configure the video card to run at an optimized resolution for 480 or 1080 so i dont have to scroll to the sides or up and down. If I use 480, it sets it to like 640x438 or something close to that, it's lower than 640x480. I can set it to 1080 and then it...
