    P5N-E SLI Problems

    Are you overclocking? Which bios are you using? What's the voltage you're using?

    OCZ GameXStream 700w Fan

    Hi Andy. I would do that for you, but I've already run the PSU in an open setup and it's the same deal. I have a P182 case and case temps are fine. It's just a sensitive PSU. Thanks for you help and interest though.

    No longer able to OC my Q6600

    Your northbridge voltage is way too low. Default is 1.392 or something like that. You should set it one higher to 1.5xx. I know this board's northbridge gets hot as hell, but it shouldn't affect stability. I've had mine at that for along time. Also this board supposedly isn't great for Quad...

    Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews

    I can vouch for 10e. I'm currently using my FP241W for my workstation and my 360 via VGA (Microsoft's VGA cable) and it looks great. It's true the colours don't seem to look as great as using component, but the visuals are smoother and less edgy with the VGA cable over the component cable...

    OCZ GameXStream 700w Fan

    That's exactly what it is I believe. It's just too sensitive and ramps up too early. The temperature of the air coming out the back of the PSU is rarely warm enough for the fan to be ramping up like that, but PSUs' fans are load dependent, so the greater the load the faster the fan will ramp...

    OCZ GameXStream 700w Fan

    It's not that I have sensitive hearing. It is loud. No if ands or buts about it. It's a very sensitive power supply in terms of its fan ramping up because of the load. Run any sort of benchmark on your E8300 system and see if the PSU starts ramping up in fan speed. If it doesn't then I'd...

    OCZ700gxssli or Corsair 620w?

    The corsair, only because it's quieter. I've had about 4 of these OCZ GameXStream PSUs and they're loud.

    Yeah, I believe someone did a comparison many pages back. I know it's a pain, but just sort through the pages or do a search.

    Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews

    I don't see why it wouldn't. Windows uses generic monitor drivers anyways, you don't HAVE to install the benq drivers, but I usually do. I'm running Vistax64 and it's running my benq just fine.

    OCZ GameXStream 700w Fan

    Sorry, but I've been through I think 4 of these 700 watt OCZ GameXStream PSUs now and all of them had horribly loud fans. OCZ is an amazing company and I love their products. I've never used another kind of ram for my systems or systems for my clients or friends/family. Thing is I really...

    Guys this could be your eyes playing tricks on you. If you've been staring at the screen for a while and your brightness and contrast is up sky high, you'll see rainbows on your screen. I sit in front of monitor for hours on end for work and play, so after a while I see rainbows. LOL...

    Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews

    You should always wait for electronics to get to room temperature before powering it up for the first time if it's been exposed to extreme temperatures like we get here in Canada. What's the typical of electronics again? usually in manuals it says 5 degrees celsius as a minimum storage and...

    Wow sorry to hear a the last few owners have had bad luck with quality issues. I would say to those who are looking at this monitor to pick up even the defective units if possible. Well those that have only a couple dead pixels or something, because there aren't any monitors like this out...

    Asus M2A-VM Video Problems

    supposedly it's a bios and driver issues from what I've read. I setup a system for my friend a while ago with this board and it had some issues too. Quirky board. I'm about to pick one up for an HTPC build. You have to update the bios and then it will work with catalyst 7.4 and 7.5...
