I need HDMI for HTPC use but will not do much gaming, mainly wireless web use. I am about to pull the trigger but thought I would get your opinion before I go with it.
I am looking for a laptop to play movies and connect to my TV. I currently have a CRT with a single RCA input (yellow) but will be getting a LCD/Plasma soon.
I have read that HDMI is the best connection for the flat panel TVs but is it a must have?
Also for connecting to my current TV, S...
I am wanting to spend about $60 or around there and need to know what I can go with and still be combatable with my mobo-ram. My rig is listed in my sig but here are some CPUZ info sheets.
I was thinking about this one.

I have many videos on an extra PC I have and am tired of watching them at my computer desk. So I would like to setup this computer to export to my SD CRT TV. I would also like the audio to go to my TV as well.
I am not concerned at the moment with having the DigitalTV signal go into the...
I am looking to buy a laptop for some wireless internet usage. I have a tower PC for anything else I need to do. I haven't been keeping up with the latest news in mobile computing and need some advice. Here are a few links to a couple of laptops I have seen, what do you think of the...

I need a set of computers speakers for a 2.1 setup used for gaming only. Nothing really loud but clear full sound. I have heard some speakers give you highs and lows but no mids. And shamelessly, looks are important, I want some speakers that look cool on my desk as long as they give me good...
I have been playing Half-Life and COD2 and I noticed in task manager my CPU runs 100% whenever I am in gameplay. Does this mean the processor is limiting my performance or do most rigs run like this?
What is the most compatible with my motherboard? See sig below
What has the best performance for future overclocking?
Shoud I buy DDR500 speed to give me performance?
2 x 1gb sticks
Price around $200 would be good?
Thanks

I am trying to install Windows on my Raptor 74gig and the computer sees the drive on the startup screen but when windows starts to install it doesn't show the sata drive, just my ide drive. I have tried to install sata drivers from a floppy but it never works properly. My mobo is the Asus A8V...
I just installed my EVGA 7800GS AGP and after my computer gets past the bootup screen and attempts Windows the monitor goes into standby mode like it has lost its signal. I have tried cleaning the previous drivers with Drivercleaner and the computer works fine when I put in a 9700pro. What is...
What display has the best picture quality for under 250. I don't care if it is CRT or LCD but would like it to be at least 17 inch and possibly 19. I have a new video card coming in the mail today (7800gs) and thought I would do it justice with a decent monitor. Right now I have an old...
Right now I have 2 512 sticks of ddr corsair XMS 3200 and am thinking of going to 2 gb. My question is, should I just buy another pair of 512 sticks or sell the two I have and buy two 1gb sticks? Is it worth the hassle of selling and shipping the old stuff?
I need to know how to switch the computer from PCI to AGP in the bios. I switched it to PCI frmo AGP and now when the computer boots up the monitor doesn't turn on like it is seeing a signal. I can't see anything to switch the bios back to AGP!
Here is the screen, what is causing this. It only happens when I wake my computer out of "sleep" mode. If I reboot it goes away so I have a solution, but it is still annoying.
Has anyone heard anything about the EVGA 7800gs agp KO edition? I just talked to EVGA for my step up porgram info and asked him about this card and he said they are making one but of course didn't know when it was going to be released. I suppose it will have EVGA's special cooling like the...
EVGA.com has their new 7800gs AGP cards on their website. They have 4 different cards offered. 375 1200 - 430 1300 - 460 1350 - 460 1350 with evga fan.
So is it worth the extra $110 over the 6800gs AGP????
Hi, I am going to beef up my sons computer enough so that it can play COD2, BF2 and NFSMW at at least minumim settings. Now it won't even load COD2 (not compatible with video card). Right now it is a 1.8 pentium with 384 of ram (speed??), 20 gig hard drive and ATI radeon 7500. I am hoping...
The 6800gs is at 375/1000 with 12 pipes AGP. And now the reviews are saying that the 7800gs also has 12 pipes and 350/1000 speeds PCIE. What am I missing?
I am have the evga 6800nu agp and am going to step up to one of these cards before my step up expires February 15th.
I went to register my videocard on EVGA's website and it says that my serial number had already been registered. This is kind of freaking me out because I have 6800 (for 1 month) and now am wanting to upgrade to the GS. Is it possible that my videocard was sold and returned to tigerdirect.com...
Hey guys, guess what, I just bought COD 2 and my radeon 7500 is causing my computer to lock up after one minute. So I think I need to upgrade. LOL I built a new rig about 6 months ago with a AMD 3200+ 64 bit 939 pin with an ASUS A8V deluxe mobo (AGP) and a gig of Corsair XMS ram. I pulled...

I have a ATI 7500 card with a new A64 3200 processor and it is obviously my bottleneck. I don't have much money left over after my new build. My brother will sell me his 9800 pro for $100 or a guy I work with has a 9800 regular for $50. My question is: Is the PRO version worth twice the...
These two cards are about the same price tag. Which one will perform better? My brother has the same rig as me with a 9800pro and I am about to upgrade my videocard. I know the 9800pro is a favorite but the thing I don't like about it is that it is old. The specs are AMD 64 3200+, 512...
I am wanting to spend about $200 so I have decided on the 6600gt. Now I am uncertain which brand of card to go with? I was thinking MSI or XFX but really don't know what is different between manufacturers. My computer is a ASUS A8v, AMD 64 3200+, 512 corsair xms platinum (will be adding...
