    Need Suggestions for 24" to 27" (no budget restrictions)

    Hi guys, I have a three monitor setup and one of my monitors just died on me. It's been about 3 years since I've even looked at monitors, so I'm not even sure where to start. I need some suggestions for the best monitors that would apply to what I do with it: Primarily reading and...

    24" or larger "low heat" monitor options?

    Hi guys - This may seem like a strange request, but I work from my home office and utilize three monitors (two Gateway 2485W and a HP 3065). These monitors put out a lot of heat causing my office to be about 10 degrees higher in temp than the rest of the house. With summer it means that my...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    You guys rock! I'm going to take a look at the options you guys have suggested here. I'll post once I've had a chance to review. The room treatments look particularly interesting as well as the Marantz receiver suggestion. I've been looking at the new SR5003 - what do you guys think of...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    Okay guys, an update on the journey to a higher end system... I've had an opportunity to talk to two dealers and both say that the Panasonic XR-57 is fine for a "retail" integrated amp, but they are recommending that I step up to a Rotel non-integrated amp. The models I'm looking at are the...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    Phide - thanks for that response. That really helped clear some things up for me. I called a couple of Usher dealers that are in my area (within about 30 minutes of me) and was able to talk to one of them. I let him know that I wanted to buy a couple of the S-520s. He recommended that I...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    Thanks for the help with this. I've done some searching and I can't seem to find where to buy the speaker wire that you like. Is there an online shop that you like that you get yours from that you would recommend? After doing the research on the speakers I think those must be an excellent...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    Warning my "newbness" is about show here... For the Usher speakers (I just read a review on them - thanks for the heads up there), should I plan on buying four of them? Or do I just need two? Also, you mention bi-wire and anti-cable speaker wire - is this the same thing? I'm assuming...

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    It's for my home office - I have a large desk (custom made), but also a lot of room under the desk as well - if that helps. Thanks for your help!

    Upgrade PC Sound System (speakers & card) - Best combo w/ $1,000 budget?

    Hi guys - I'm in the market to upgrade my sound system and get something top notch and I want to make sure that I do it right. I primarily use my computer for games and music (hardly ever watch movies on it) and I want the best system I can get for that purpose. This is an area that I...

    Can I run a 4870 x2 & 8800GTX on same board in Vista 64?

    Hi guys - Sorry, if this is a crazy question, but my setup includes a 30 inch monitor (main monitor) and two 24 inch monitors. Currently, I have two 8800GTXs (I don't run them in SLI) and I've been thinking about trying out the 4870 x2 on my 30 inch monitor. However, I don't know if I would...
