    Monitor Shaking

    most likely its electro-magnetic interference with the room your monitor is in. It usually comes from unshielded speakers, fans, and un-protected wires in your wall. The best way to check would be to move the monitor into a different part of your house or room and see if it still shakes as...

    Quad Processor Motherboard Recommendations

    I'm building a quad processor system for a friend who needs to do some heavy similuations for work. Anyone have any solid recommendations on a motherboard? I was thinking of going the intel route with dual Xeon processors......Planning on spending up to 1500 dollars on it......

    Artic Silver

    I did those same steps from arctic silver's website but I still am getting horrible temps. I put a rice grain size as seen up above, and I wiggled the heatsink to spread it out. But my temps are still at 41-43 idle at stock speeds! :(

    new case and fans help needed

    if you buy the case with pre-installed fans you'll most likely want to replace some of them because they are pretty low quality, especially the blow hole on the top......but other than that the case is well built, pretty much every screw is a thumbscrew, everything is easy to install....

    new case and fans help needed

    well you just described a lian li case in a nut shell.....my lian li pc-65 has four case fans, removable hard drive cage, aluminium, and a removable motherboard tray.....it will prolly run you about $125

    Hot! Hot!

    Hot! Hot!

    my room is prolly a little cooler than room temperature, case temps get up to 32 C.....my case is right near a window as well so it should be alright......do you think better fans would help? The current ones came with the case and I would assume are pretty crappy......but anyway ill defnitely...
