    I've got an issue with both my front and back USB3.0 ports (front panel USB plugged into header).

    Salmosa Middle-Click

    At first I thought my old Salmosa's middle-click was just broken, but then I discovered that their software just deactivates it. I know that the click is registering because I can set the middle mouse click to a left click, and it works perfectly. However, I can't get it to be utilized as a...

    WC'd GTX680 Extreme Heat

    Hi guys, I got my first watercooled loop up recently, and I thought everything was going fine, until I tried to play a game. The game has some bugs, so it might not be this, but the game was crashing my system after playing for only a very short time. I decided to download FurMark and GPU-Z...

    Best tool under $50 for cutting holes in a case

    I'm looking for the best standalone tool to cut a side window and several 120mm holes into a case. This means no jigsaws, tin snips, or nibblers, because I will have to get a drill to cut a pilot hole. I've been looking at Rotary Tools (I found a 16,000rpm single speed one for cheap) and this...

    Pulled slot load drive compatability

    Would slot load drives pulled from laptops have any issues working in a desktop configuration? I'm worried that the mobo won't recognize it and there will be no driver for it, or perhaps that it physically won't fit, or maybe the connector is different. The reason I ask is that these pulled...

    140mm fan to heatsink

    I picked up a couple Aerocool Streamliners in a recent sale to get free shipping, but the 120mm fan adapters don't work with my case- So I was thinking I would try to attach one to my heatsink (Noctua NH-U12P). Would this be effective and how should I do it? The traditional fan clips won't work...

    New System- Step-up or 5870?

    I've got a new system build just lacking a video card- would it be better to buy a Nvidia Step-up program applicable card now and upgrade to GT300 or go with an HD5870? As a side note- If I decided to go with the Radeon, would it be worth it to wait a couple months on the 5870, say until...

    PCie 2.o support of USB 3.0

    Most motherboards seem to have a couple PCIe 2.0 x16 slots open for video cards and then some smaller PCie 2.0 1x slots for expansion. I assume the x1 slot will be used for expansion of an existing system into USB 3.0, but won't the PCIe slot bottleneck the speed (4.8 gb/s) at its bandwidth of...
