    can someone help clarify a few things re: iPhone / AT&T / grandfathering

    but video chat is going to be solely on WiFi for the rest of the year. also, streaming netflix over 3g would suck. another item to be used over wifi. neither of which would affect 3g data.

    Post your Phenom II and Sempron unlock or failed unlock results here.

    i've unlocked my 720BE at stock voltage, and pushed it to 3.4GHz on stock voltage, but when i go to change voltages, it says "system voltage not optimized" in the bios. i'm on a gigabyte ma770t-ud3p mobo. should i just do it anyway even not optimized?

    networking within my house, experiencing issues.

    okay, got the new plate today, and wired it up the same way as the other end, but i'm still getting an intermittent signal. :( so i plugged my laptop directly into the new modem, and it worked, so i've come to the conclusion that the problem lies in the cat5e cable i ran through the wall...

    networking within my house, experiencing issues.

    This is the first time i've run or spliced cat5e cable, and i'm having a bit of an issue. i've created two jack ends for a patch cable to run through the walls, and only one of the plates i got had a keystone jack on it. the other had a plate with screws and wires running from the screws leading...

    unfortunately my tv is a 32" samsung that displays at 720p, so i'll probably watch blu-ray's on my monitor, but i think you guys have solidified my decision. Asus it is.

    Pick me a monitor!

    was that an answer? or more of like a head-shaking disapproval? i'll be doing all the regular stuff too, school-work, web browsing, that sort.

    Pick me a monitor!

    Arite guys, the monitor is the last piece of the puzzle. i stumbled across the ASUS VW266H on my own, but a friend suggested the Acer P235Hbmid. Is the higher native resolution worth the extra hundred bucks approximately? I've got an HD5850, and will be playing crysis, aion, and will also have...

    good PSU for light gaming

    thanks danny, and i do apologize for fumbling around for the last few days. this is my first build, and i'm one of those guys who just hates getting something second-rate when i could've spent a little bit more and gotten more performance out of it. that PSU has no sata connections it seems...

    good PSU for light gaming

    sorry figured it'd be along the same lines? since i'll also be doing light gaming. will be running a phenom II x3 720, probably overclocking it, seen it is stable at 3.7, which is 900mhz above stock, 1 sata drive, either 4 or 8GB of ddr3 1600, inside an antec 300 illusion, with 4 case fans and...
