    Gaming desktop FS or FT for older laptop/desktop/parts+cash

    I lowered prices to CRAZY low and will throw in the cooler for free w/ CPU purchase. That is $385 for EVERYTHING people just add a case and hard drive. That is like cheaper than a netbook for a quad core 4GB GTX260 gaming rig.

    Gaming desktop FS or FT for older laptop/desktop/parts+cash

    I'm looking to part out my gaming computer. What I'm going to do is basically downgrade the entire system, starting with the video card. I'm hoping to trade or get enough money to buy some used replacements (cheap components that is) and end up with a low-end desktop or laptop and some extra...

    FS: EVGA GTX 260 896MB and WD Black 1TB

    Plus I'm willing to knock off a good chunk if you can throw in a replacement video card. Something worth around $75?

    FS: EVGA GTX 260 896MB and WD Black 1TB

    Sorry guys, I've been away from my computer for a while. Still $50 for the 1TB, and $125 for the GTX260. You pay for shipping unless you buy both. If you want both and $175 is sent to paypal, both will be shipped via UPS ground in the same package on my dime. I don't have heatware, but I'm...

    FS: EVGA GTX 260 896MB and WD Black 1TB

    BOTH SOLD LOCK THREAD PLEASE I'm a broke college student trying to get by, and unemployment in Michigan isn't helping. I'm planning to downgrade my gaming rig for the time being. The GTX 260 is about a year old, I have the original Newegg receipt if needed, never overclocked. GPU-Z reports...

    Does IRST Really Work on SATA Drives?

    I have 2 Western Digital drives (640GB Caviar Blue for OS/Apps and 1TB Caviar Black for Media Storage) all on an Asus P5Q Pro motherboard (P45 NB/ICH10R SB). I just did the neat little registry tweak to enable AHCI post-OS install and I have noticed a slight difference, but nothing too...

    Running out of HD Space!

    I've had the build in my sig for over a year now (thanks to the advice of everyone here) and it is still running flawlessly. I knew this time would come, but I didn't know it would come so soon. The 640GB Caviar Blue (WD6400AAKS) is the only hard drive I have in my rig (the 640GB Black wasn't...

    TV Tuner Cards

    Okay, I finally bit the bullet and spent a whole $33 (including shipping) from monoprice.com. It took over a week to ship, but I finally got everything yesterday. Scroll down to the "Bottom Line" section of the post if you don't want your eyes to bleed. Sorry for the HUGE post, but I wanted to...

    TV Tuner Cards

    I just want to verify a few things. I have one DVI and one VGA input on my monitor, so I'm guessing you suggested the DVI switch because it's a lot better quality than the simple HDMI->VGA or Component->VGA method? By my STB upscaling, you mean that even though I don't have an HD package it...

    TV Tuner Cards

    Yes, I've been using VLC and CoreAVC for H264 files for a long time. I just got done watching an XviD at 624x352 and that looks completely fine to me in full widescreen. If anything can look equivalent to that, I'm a very happy camper. This is my monitor...

    TV Tuner Cards

    WOW, those last 3 samples actually looked great in HD fullscreen. It's just too bad that it's $200 and you have to be getting an HD signal for it to look that good. I've been looking for something sort of in between the KWORLD and Hauppauge, but no luck. Are there any other brands that are a...

    TV Tuner Cards

    I have AT&T U-Verse, and everything changed from analog to digital, so do I have pretty much what you have? I'm not sure if it's considered a "digital" cable package on u-verse, but I'm pretty sure its the same thing. You all keep saying analog, but I didn't think TV signals came in analog...

    TV Tuner Cards

    I personally have never used one, but a friend of mine has one on his CRT monitor. To be honest that looked awful, but he's just using an old ATI All-In-One card. I don't care what any of you video pros say, but if you're talking about playing standard def through a receiver->LCD monitor on a...

    TV Tuner Cards

    Well something must be seriously wrong on my end then. Watching on HQ in fullscreen it is so blurry and pixelated you can barely read the text or see what's going on in the games. If I don't put it to fullscreen, yes it looks fine, but I don't plan on sitting in my computer chair 10in away from...

    TV Tuner Cards

    Well, after looking at those videos I'm not really excited about getting TV on my monitor anymore haha. I know YouTube encodes the video and it probably looks a lot better than on those samples, but if I put them in fullscreen it was completely unwatchable. If I'm going to have to pump out that...

    TV Tuner Cards

    Yes, each TV has to have a receiver with U-Verse. I don't have an HD receiver because those cost more per month. Right now I'm just using a CRT TV connected to the box through a coax cable. The receiver also has component video, but no HDMI. That's great that I can get a decent tuner for only...

    TV Tuner Cards

    I'm moving next month, and the computer in my signature is going into the bedroom. I don't want to have to buy another TV, so I was hoping I could use this computer as a mini HTPC. I don't have any HD receivers, so my TV comes in standard definition. I have AT&T U-Verse, which comes with a...

    Best hardware site that ships to Australia?

    I have a gaming buddy that lives in Australia, and he's looking to make a new i7 build. What's the best website (best selection/best prices) that ship down under? I'm trying to talk him into getting a SSD, but the only site he found that has them is way overpriced.

    Highest Quality XVID to DVD Software?

    I know converting a lossy XVID to a DVD is not the best way to go, but that's what I have to deal with. I personally put all of my XVIDs onto a USB flash drive and stick it into the USB port on my Philips DVP5990 standalone, but I have a ton of XVIDs I want to share with friends who don't have...

    Which GTX260 Did I Get?

    So, does that mean that the driver is automatically overclocking our cards? Well, at least mine, seeing that stock on my version is supposed 576mhz?

    Which GTX260 Did I Get?

    Is there any way I can figure out which EVGA model it is? the 896-P3-1260-AR is what I payed for, but I don't think it's what I got. Here is what GPU-Z shows:

    Which GTX260 Did I Get?

    I didn't see anything that said streaming processor, but it did say there were 216 unified shaders. I didn't see the number 192 anywhere. Does that mean in November I got a 216 core for $219!?

    Which GTX260 Did I Get?

    I ordered this EVGA GTX260 from newegg about 2 months ago, and it has worked great. I wanted to overclock it a little so I could turn on AA without a big performance hit, so I installed EVGA Precision. What is a little strange is that the clock speeds precision is reading is different from the...

    FarCry 2 the most hated on game of the year?

    I wasn't a real big fan of single player either, but it was still better than most out there. I just have one word... Multiplayer! I haven't had this much fun since Counterstrike first came out. I would probably hate the game too if I just had the pirated version and couldn't play online...
