    Out of the game for years! Need help on a modest upgrade

    For audio recording and editing I use Reaper, for video I use pinnacle studio. Including a new power supply I'd like to do this for under 750.

    Out of the game for years! Need help on a modest upgrade

    Ok, I would rather not ruin some new hardware with a bad power supply. I'll budget for something new. I'll find something that has "haswell support". For my fairly basic needs, how much power is necessary? Would something around 500-650W be ok? Microcenter is only 30min away, so I can easily...

    Out of the game for years! Need help on a modest upgrade

    Thanks! Yes the card I have now is PCI-E. Though, with the advances since it came out, is it possible that on board video would be better than the old card? It looks like I can pick up a decent 4th gen i5, a mobo, a 128 or 256 SSD, 8gig RAM, and a fresh Win8.1 license for ~600.

    Out of the game for years! Need help on a modest upgrade

    I built my current PC ~6 years ago and it is in bad need of an upgrade. Here is what I currently have, I would like to salvage as much as makes sense to save some $. - Lian Li PC7B case (nice case I'd like to reuse it) - ASUS A8N-SLI mobo and AMD X2 CPU - 250GB WD caviar SE16 7200rpm SATA...

    Home Server Build help

    Thanks! What was spec'd for ~$800 seems pretty nice. That is around the price range I was hoping to be at. In terms of price vs performance, is AMD the way to go for this?

    Home Server Build help

    I want to build a home server and am looking for some help. Home Server. Storing movies, pictures, music, etc. It will be used to stream to a PS3 and backup data from my main PC. It needs some horsepower to do some transcoding during streaming, and some ripping of music/movies. I'm thinking of...

    Asus A8N-SLI fan headers .. Which work for fan control?

    I'd like to know about this too. I have the same mobo and would like to change the chipset fan speed to make it a little less noisy, but Speedfan doesn't seem to be able to control it even though it is a 3 wire fan.

    ASUS A8N-SLI chipset fan

    My MB temp has stayed below 30C so far, but I do have all the covers off since I'm not finished cabling. I'll probably call ASUS for a new fan. I've read some other options are a fan speed controller to keep the fan speed lower, or put on a passive heatsink. I'm just worried that the temps...

    ASUS A8N-SLI chipset fan

    I just built up my first rig in a long time, and I used a new ASUS A8N-SLI mobo. The chipset fan is pretty loud. It sometimes it buzzes around 6000 rpm. Is this normal, should I look into a new fan? Also, what motherboard temps are acceptable?

    eVGA 7900GT CO in stock!

    Just a FYI to those looking for a eVGA 7900GT CO. Tiger direct has them in stock for 319. It is a $20 premium, but I can't find it anywhere else in stock. I ordered one from monarch several days ago, but it won't ship until over a week after I ordered it, so I am cancelling and getting it...

    1st build got some questions hope u people have answers

    The eVGA mobo combo is only $50 more than the card alone, while the ASUS mobo is 160 or so. The combo is definitely a better deal, but I thought that if I bought the eVGA alone, I could use the step-up program in a month to get a 7900gt or gtx for cheap. I'm not sure if you can use the...

    1st build got some questions hope u people have answers

    I have almost the exact same system spec'd out for my new rig. The only other option I was considering is getting the ASUS A8N-SLI Premium Motherboard and not buying the 7800GT/mobo combo.
