    This Is the New Microsoft Surface Pro

    I'm pretty sure this should be categorized as a "tick" release, rather than a "tock" - "ticks" are the architecture shrinks, while "tocks" are categorized by entirely new microarchitectures.

    Cyborg R.A.T. Mouse

    I bought a R.A.T. 7 in mid-November and very much enjoyed its aesthetics and comfort. I liked its specs and the ability for me to customize it. However, a few days after I received the mouse, I began to notice multiple tracking issues. The most annoying issues were that the cursor would move...

    Good idea for an upgrade?

    Yeah, that's a possibility - I haven't done enough research to figure out what the difference is beyond the bracket. Are there any? If not, I'll just reuse my current one. I'm using a Scythe S-Flex - it's either the E or the F version, I can't remember :-|. Good idea, except for one flaw - all...

    Good idea for an upgrade?

    Thanks for all the responses. I'm sorry about not answering the questions; I'll edit them back into the first post.

    Good idea for an upgrade?

    Hey guys! I'm about to pull the trigger on this new hardware. My current rig is in my signature. I'm going to sell the components I have now that I want to upgrade to a friend. Here's the plan: e6600 @ 3.6ghz w/ Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme --> Core i7 920 @ (>?)3.6ghz w/ TRUE eVGA 8800GTX...

    Is this a decent upgrade?

    Ah, I see. I'll add this to the first post, too: I think what I'm going to do is wait until early May to do this. I'm going away next month so it'd be pretty worthless to have a bunch of hardware to play with for only a month. Is there anything that we know of that's coming out between now...

    Is this a decent upgrade?

    Ugh, is it HX620 or 620HX? I've seen both! :-P And good point. I'll go with the WD unless I'm absolutely sure I'm not going to get a bad Seagate, whether that means waiting or whatever.

    Is this a decent upgrade?

    Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I had the G.Skills in mind as well. Sounds good. My PSU is a Corsair HX620. I've calculated that it should be okay, is that correct? And I thought that Seagate's firmware issues had been resolved? That was the whole fiasco with the intermittent freezing, yeah...

    Is this a decent upgrade?

    Hey guys! I'm planning on upgrading my PC soon. My current rig is in my signature. I'm going to sell the components I have now that I want to upgrade to a friend. Here's the plan: e6600 @ 3.6ghz w/ Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme --> Core i7 920 @ (>?)3.6ghz w/ TRUE eVGA 8800GTX --> eVGA GTX 285...

    T260HD - Buy or no?

    I'm thinking about buying a new monitor, and I was seriously considering the Samsung T260HD at Amazon. I currently have an HP 2207 that I'm selling to my friend. I play PC games as well as PS3. I've noticed some concerns about input lag; are those valid? My price range is just around $450. Is...

    A slight problem with my Seagate...

    Ok guys, here's the deal. This past Friday, my Seagate 320gb drive started acting up. The Event Viewer showed that the drive had bad sectors, and it would no longer boot. This weekend I went out and bought a Raptor and put my OS on there. I am able to see all the files on my Seagate and can copy...

    1394 MB Cable question

    Hey everyone! I've got a couple random questions here that I am sure someone knows the answer to. My case, the Silverstone TJ09, came with a regular 1394 Firewire motherboard cable. It also came with an extension cable for that. The extension cable has a few extra wires hanging off of the...

    Nothing but problems...

    Okay, I actually think I've found the problem. I don't know why I didn't think of this before. I took out one of my RAM modules and the problem went away. I put in only the one I took out and the problem occured. Wow. How could I be so stupid? I guess it's my RAM, then. Thanks, everyone, for...
