    Changing GTX 470

    I would go with a GTX 760. I had a GTX 280, its about the same performance as a 470. Replaced it with a 760 this week and could not be more happy. I would only go with the 660 if you wanted a cheaper card with lower power consumption. Bang for buck however I would pick the 760.

My CPU is an I5 2400, with 4GB ram. The 660 is a steal a that price, but some people say spend the extra cash and...

    Best HTPC Mouse/Keyboard/Remote Thing

    I just got the Lenovo N5902 in the mail the other day. After using it a few times, it seems to do everything I need it to. Plus this version has a scroll section below the trackpad. I really thought the trackpad would be odd, but it works great if you learn to use it. This is what sold me on it...

    HDMI video issue

    I have tried all the usb ports, front and rear. The odd part is that this issue only happens when I use HDMI. The computer loads windows fine if I use DVI or the D-sub. I have gone as far as reloading windwos 7 sp 1 and using genreric drivers and no windows updates. The same thing happens. I...
