    WTB Micro-ATX AMD AM3+ DDR3 MOBO

    Honestly my biggest concern is just compatible with the 380x. I'm sure the issues I'm having with this mobo are just a fluke but I just want to make sure. I ordered a mobo on ebay with the 900 series chipset. So maybe If anybody has some cheap DDR3 and a AM3 processor i could use the biostar in...

    WTB Micro-ATX AMD AM3+ DDR3 MOBO

    If someone has a motherboard with a 900 series AMD chipset that would be preferred. I'm surprised that there seems to be no AM3+ mobos with PCI-E 3.0.

    MSI Shows Us How To Install an AMD Threadripper CPU

    As far as applying TIM goes I have a number of methods depending on the die type, whether is temp or permanent, etc. Method 1 (Heat spreader on chip, temporary): A small amount on the corners and a larger amount in the middle, just enough paste to cover the heat spreader without having to clean...

    AMD Ryzen 1700X CPU Review @ [H]

    Unlikely yes, but the capabilities of this "backdoor" are worrying. I was indeed trolling a bit :p Edit: The issue is that it's a pandora's box type of situation. Should the worst happen : ie. chinese/russian hackers get it. There's no easy solution besides swapping cpu's, and that might be...

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    Yeah i know for "broken" Lcds just swapping out 10bucks in caps will usually get them working again. I figure with failed CRT's capacitor ageing also plays a big role in their failure.

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    I have a AMD 7850 right now. Looks like the only mid range graphics card i can get that is able to output a VGA signal that is worth upgrading to is the Nvidia 970 so i think i'm going to do that and figure out a workaround later. If anybody else has any suggestions for a graphics card that has...

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    Id be looking for one that can do 1920x1200 @85hz, but the weird thing is that with external graphics cards on laptops they are able to output to the laptop screen through pci-express so thats why i was wondering if that could work for desktops.

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    Since its becoming more and more difficult to find high end videocards that are able to output an analog signal is there a way to run two graphics cards of the same brand and use one for processing and the other to output the rendered graphics through the vga/DVI-I of the other card? Or is there...
