    DIY Triple 27inch monitor stand

    I am about to start in on a monitor stand for my 3 asus monitors. Has anyone else tried this recently? I saw some threads were people were using pipe etc.. but in all honesty that looks a little "ghetto" for my taste. I have a full wood shop and figured this would be a good time to learn how to...

    Just mail it to the hotel or place you will be staying at to arrive the day after you arrive. I have done this many times and never had an issue.

    Bought some PC audio stuff

    I have had a bose companion 5 set for the past 3 months and could not like them. I had a HT system before that but I didnt like dealing with the reciever and didnt really need 5.1. Now I went into this looking for the best sounding audio I could find. I didnt really care about surround sound or...

    GTX 470 causes random reboots?

    After much trouble I finally figured it out. The black screen issues in 2D was because of the realtek drivers. I used driver sweeper and cleared them all out then put a fresh install of the LAN 08 drivers then the lastest 9/10 audio drivers. The blue screen and crashes was due to the card. I...

    GTX 470 causes random reboots?

    Let me know how this turns out. I have 2 GTX 470s and I get the same issue. Sometimes it even uninstalls the display driver and I have to reinstall. I am having all of the blue screen, Black screen and random reboot issues. So far I am hating my 470s...

    Overclocking for the first time. i7 920

    Its fine I was just asking, thank you. I would think that a 920 stock would be more than capable of feeding 1 470 right guys?

    I Made The Switch From BFG To EVGA

    Very nice setup! I wish my pockets went down as far as yours do :) You have 2 psus for that set up? What games do you play that require that much GPU girth?

    Need a new GPU, 460 GTX 1gb vs 470 GTX

    Get the 470. Dont let people scare you with the fan noise thing. I have 2 and it is not bad at all. It is actually quieter than my old 8800 GTs. You can pick up a 470 for around $230. I got mine for $215 each. Either way I think you will be happy

    I agree. If you want silent just watercool :). I wanted the option to overclock to a 480 so 470 it was. It really was hard walking away from that amazing amazon deal but oh well

    Slow Starcraft 2 Performance at 1920x1028 ultra?

    It is the drivers. I got 2 GTX470s and was only getting around 30-40 fps with the Nvidia 7/10 drivers. Uninstall the card in device manager and reinstall but use the drivers that windows gives you. It makes a very big difference. Your 460 should run that game on ultra everything/4x antianalising...

    I picked up the 470 over the 460...

    I had 2 GTX460s asus model from Amazon for $210 on order. Then the 470 went on sale for $5 bucks more and I bit on 2 of them. The heat and power was a concearn when I bought it but now that I have them they are no louder than my V6 GT. Granted that is at about 70% fan but I have not seen them go...
