    Samsung Announces 840 Series SSDs

    Just bought a 256GB 830 today, could not pass up the $170 price tag. I hope Samsung begins offering a mSATA version for my ultrabook so I can get more than 128GB of storage.

    Which ultrabook to buy?

    I am looking for an Ultrabook, I do not like tablets much and a regular notebook is too much to haul around as I commute to school by bike each day. Slimmer notebooks are more comfortable for typing on the tiny lecture hall desks too. The reviews I read of the ASUS said that the 4GB of RAM was...

    I have been researching Ultrabooks for awhile and I like both of these notebooks but need a bit more help deciding. I am willing to spend up to $1300.

    Computer won't turn on

    Tried the CMOS, set it up on the table with the bare minimum of components, have done it all except reseating the cpu. I doubt it is that because my h60 is literally bolted on to the mobo with the cpu sandwiched between. It has not loosened at all.

    Computer won't turn on

    I also set up the entire pc on my worktable and it reacts exactly the same as when it is in the case. I am going to just get an ivy bridge setup to replace it since I can use the new features.

    Computer won't turn on

    So I did the paperclip trick and my PSU fan comes on. I assume that means it is not the PSU.
