    NEC 3090WQXi-BK refurb $999+tax/shipping

    I just bought my 3007 for $1081 shipped (new) about a month ago from Sams. Seems like they don't sell them anymore though.

    XFX 5770 artifacts/glitches with Windows 7 + Aero

    Ok, checked the cable, one pin is slightly lower than the rest. Also if I plug it into the other DVI output the problems disappears.

    XFX 5770 artifacts/glitches with Windows 7 + Aero

    OCCT doesn't work (maybe win7 64?) FURMARK is 100%. It looks like a driver issue to me.

    XFX 5770 artifacts/glitches with Windows 7 + Aero

    Just replaced a 4870 that I had with the 5770 and also put the Dell 3007WFP-HC power+usb+dvi cables into one of those cable pipes 1/2" thick.

    XFX 5770 artifacts/glitches with Windows 7 + Aero

    Just installed a new XFX 5770. Windows 7 64bit Driver Packaging Version 8.681-091124a-092499C-ATI Dell 3007WFP HC. Looks like a bad refresh. Vertical lines quickly appear and dissapear as the window is being created/killed, also when restore and minimize. So basically when Aero is...

    4870 instead of 4850

    Great. Thanks for the help. I got the 4870 because I found a deal I couldn't pass up. I'm going to keep the 4870 and try to get rid of the 4850. I'll do this for now and try to get something more decent when prices start coming down.

    4870 instead of 4850

    Gaming isn't my main priority and I'm just getting the monitor today. I haven't added the 2nd half of the RAM yet either. I couldn't find any 4890s. How are the 280s? I can get a 280 GTX for $180.

    4870 instead of 4850

    Ok, I have the 4870 and a 4850 (got it cheaply). I'll keep the 4870 in the machine and wait for a good deal on a 4890 and then get rid of the 4870. Or should I go straight up to 5xxx? I'll also keep a lookout for a GTX card.

    I thought the 2x 512mb would do the trick.

    4870 instead of 4850

    Ok great. Just getting back into having a desktop pc. Been using a lenovo t61p. Should I then wait until I can find a 1gb card?

    Yeah it's on the back for the fan controls. My left bottom on (switch) is missing. Don't know if that's normal.

    Vista Home disc

    So I'd need to be subscribed to technet to get a disc? It would be illegal for me to get a disc otherwise when I already have the key?

    Vista Home disc

    I got Vista Home on my Notebook a while back. I've been using 7 and will now put my retail version of 7 (upgrade) on my new workstation. Therefore I have to go back to WIndows Vista on my notebook. I have the rescue disks with everything on them. Can't I just do a fresh install with the...

    4870 x2 on 650watt?

    I'm thinking it'll be fine. Just double checking. i7 860 + 8GB + 1TB + Antec 902. At the moment I'll have one 4870 in there. But I might want another.

    New soundcard with speakers?

    I recently acquired some M-Audio AV40s and haven't yet hooked them up (still assembling/ordering office furniture). I just have the onboard sound for now. Do I need a 3rd party sound card?

    Can I raid 0 a 300gig raptor - WD3000HLFS and a WD3000GLFS?

    I just got a 1TB Hitachi 7K1000.B. How does it stack up against the 500GB. I haven't seen many benchmarks. Specifically the 7K1000.B against the 500GB that you're talking about.

    Data Recovery, my disk is dead(ish). help!

    I'd try the freezer trick and then slap spinrite on a disk and give it a go. Btw. the freezer trick only helps with initializing the drive. The drive heat up pretty quickly after that.

    Mozy + WHS

    It's hard to find something affordable if you're going to be backing up those large amounts of data. In the end if someone is overselling their product (like mozy) it's hard to feel safe with more than 20GB of data hosted for $5 a month.

    HTC Hero on Boost

    Has anyone had any luck getting the HTC Hero on boost with data? I'm really looking to get a $50 per month plan for unlimited everything. That would really help me get on the Android bandwagon.

    What are the current top three phones provided by VerizonWireless?

    I've been using WinMo for quite a while and I am just aching to get away from it. Yes it syncs... It just feels clunky thought. Really craving an android phone. How does the hardware for instance compare to the HTC Hero?

    PC12800 lower timings vs. PC2000 higher timings

    I'd like to know the same. I just got some OCZ platinum 10666 7 CAS 2gb x 4. Would like to know how if that or say the 12800 CAS 8 or 9 would have been better.

    AZZA Helios 910R versus Antec 902

    Exciting to see what you've done with the 902, just got myself one after not having a workstation (just notebook) for such a long time. Can't wait. One question (sorry for high jacking). Some of the switches at the back and top are missing, should one of the holes just be open...

    1165 i7 860 cooler

    On the other hand, will it block a RAM slot? I've got 4GB in there already and another 4GB just waiting to go in. I bought the Biostar T5 at Fry's with the i7 860 when they had the combo deal.

    1165 i7 860 cooler

    Can I run dual monitors with Crossfire? I'll need 2x DVI ports for my 30". Can I run a 24" off of the other port?

    4870 instead of 4850

    I just got a great deal on a 4870 but it's only a 512MB. Is it worth getting another and using a crossfire config on them? I'm on a 30" so I'd love to play native resolution 2560x1600!

    4870 512MB or 4850 512MB or 9800 GT 1GB or 4870 1GB or GTX 260 or 9800 GTX+ 512MB

    Ok 4850 512MB (new) or 9800GTX+ (used) 512MB. Not really a price difference. Both 1GB cards have been sold.
