1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming and just general browsing and such. I will definitely be playing Civ VI when that comes out. Also looking to get Mafia 3 and maybe Battlefield One. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? I'd say...

Will you take $85 for it? Here is the Heat that I have.

I've never really played the Assasins Creed series before. Which one would you guys recommend?

I bit

Well I just thought I would update. I ended up puting in a 120mm fan even though the case doesn't offciailly support it and that seemed to do the trick. What I did is I changed where the hard drive wasa mounted and put a fan where a hard drive would normally be. The reported temps are definitely...

It should work. I don't see why not. The page from ASRock's site says that it supports up to four monitors.

The heatsink appears to be installed correctly. I will admit that airflow in the case is terrible but that still doesn't change the fact that the reported temperatures are not that high.

HWMonitor reports that the CPU/GPU is getting to 47 degrees. HWMonitor's highest temperature it reports before throttling down is 59 degrees and that is from the motherboard. Core Temp reports the same temperatures.

It currently has the latest bios on it and I couldn't find any options pertaining to increasing the TDP. There are actually options available to OC the CPU and adjust voltages, which I have messed with before, but currently it is all stock. I've noticed this behavior for a bit now. Once I did...

bump

Hey guys. I have a cheap HTPC with a Sempron 3850 and a ASRock AM1B-ITX motherboard. Normally, this works fine as I use it mostly just for streaming videos and browsing the web. Occasionally, however, I use it for some light gaming. I've noticed that after about 45 minutes to an hour or so...

Good riddance. There's no need for it with Intel's new Atom processors.

Really? I'd argue that CDs and vinyl sound nearly identical when both are mixed and mastered the same. I understand from a theoretical standpoint that vinyl has the potential to sound better because it is analog, but I don't think that actually translates to a real world difference in sound...

Happy holidays people

People just need to stop preordering videogames. My brother always does that but after getting the Halo Master Chief collection, he's finally convinced not to do that anymore.

I used this deal to get a 24 in Dell monitor for $85 before tax and shipping. Definitely worth it.

Thanks for the review. I bought the Toshiba Encore Mini about two weeks ago and it has much of the same specs as the HP Stream 7. The biggest difference is the Toshiba has a shittier display, only 16GB of internal, and a microSDXC slot. I can still return it and I'm thinking about returning it...

I remember paying $110 for a 4GB kit of Corsair XMS3 1600 back in 2010.

It says its $5 and instore pickup only...

I remember reading somewhere that the only reason why they had to do this is because in Germany video games are still considered toys and not media art.

I somewhat disagree with this. I mean anybody who absolutely NEEDS internet for their job will likely live in an area that already has internet readily available. I mean, no computer engineer or computer scientist is going to get a job in the middle of a rural area of Wyoming or something...

I'm going to try and get in on this retail edge deal. I really want to upgrade.

Isn't this a better deal? It's got DVD-D plus DP, HDMI and d-sub for $299

All I want is a new keyboard and they're all out of stock...

I'm sorry if this has been asked here before, but I'm curious to know what your guys' thoughts are on these 9-12 week coding bootcamps that seem to be popping up. I'm not considering one of these, I'm actually a first year CPE student. I just thought it was interesting that people go to these...

In a state as big as California, they only have one Microcenter! Come on.

Today's deals suck

Hmm. Looks like the deal's dead. Having said that, I bought mine on Black Friday last year and I'm sure you will see them on sale again this year. They really are awesome, reliable drives.

Well, although I would rather eat key lime pie, I see nothing wrong with Kit Kats. I don't get the big deal. A name's a name. In the words of Homer Simpson: "If you don't like it, go to Russia!"

I believe so. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/09/the-nexus-4-8gb-is-out-of-stock-for-good/

Damn. I would have waited about two months if I knew this would happen. I doubt it will really affect resale value in the long run though, unless Google continues to sell the Nexus 4 after the Nexus 5 comes out, which I think is unlikely...

Poor Australians...I'd hate to live in a nanny state such as that. Oh wait, the US is slowly but surely becoming one.

Is it really necessary to redesign the interface?

This is absolutely ridiculous.

A little bit of back story: A couple months ago, when T-mobile started their no contract plans, I called them up and got them to give me the new no contract rates for the remainder of my 2- year contract (pretty nice of them). My monthly bill for four smartphones is now only $100, which can't be...

Why do they continue to sell this if it so buggy??

woot. in for one

I was searching the internet and cam across this article about what people think about Windows 8 from a couple weeks back. Seems pretty interesting, since I only hear opinions from enthusiasts. My opinion on Windows 8 is really indifferent. I could see myself getting used to the interface. The...

And Bing is still superior :p

Eh, I disagree. I think Windows 7 Starter runs decent with 2gb of RAM. Of course don't expect 64-bit to run with such little ram, but 2gb is enough for 32-bit Windows IMO. I remember my netbook was slow as hell before I put a 2gb stick into it. Still, it's slow sometimes at starting up, but once...
