I also missed out on the key rush. If you have an extra one I would be grateful. Thanks.

Now there is $20 instant off the video card. and $70 of the PSU.

My old AMD socket 754 recently died and I not in position to do an upgrade as it would require an entire form factor upgrade (ram, cpu, video, mobo). So if you have an old 754 mobo laying around make an offer. Preferably with a nvidia chipset but anything is okay. Thanks, Jason

Is there any word on E8200 availability? I need a nice cool, quiet, cheap cpu for my HTPC. It's now February and they are still no where to be found.

Thanks for the help everyone. I'll go with the 520 and save myself about $30.

I've been out of the enthusiast's pc market for awhile and I need some assistance. I'll probably be getting the Corsair 520 or 620 as they gets great reviews and I like the modular design. For the follow system below what should I get. Q6600 8800GT (when I can find one) 1 Hard drive...

That's unfortunate for the loss in money, time, and effort but from the very beginning of these new areas (Console/Consumer) I felt like the good 'ol [H] was leaving its roots. When was the last waterblock or HSF shootout? Ya, I know you say there hasn't been that much change in the field and...

So I replaced a motherboard, same chipset and everything, but upon booting I get the error message similar to: couldn't load multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) NTLDR couldn't load multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) I'm pretty sure I know whats wrong I just don't know how to fix it I did a...

Video looks great... EXCEPT.. human movement. While the act of running and walking looks good the transitions from running to a walk or stand still looks goofy (0:47 , 1:02). I think it would also be cool if characters ran or walked a little different. I wouldn't seem that difficult to...

Supplied drivers didn't seem to help. Anyone know where I can get the USB patch?

Windows 98 (not SE), OPTi Firelink PCI to USB adapter, mother board is TX Pro II which I'm pretty sure is a SIS 5598 chipset. According to this page, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/184400 , it should just work as it is an OPTi card and is OHCI compliant. Yet, upon booting it detects the...

Man, of all games I never thought a RTS would bring my system down to its knees. Low on some, Medium on most settings, high on a few, at 1680x1050 and there is noticable slowdown with lots of action is going on. Does anyone else with a nvidia card get horrible quality of shadows that are all...

yes

Meh, it's a free magazine you grab on the exit from the grocery store....so they don't really have damages and its an older issue.
