Hi all, As a belated birthday present to myself, I decided to buy a NEC 2490WUXi. I am really spoiled by the Dell 2005FPW (a S-IPS panel), but it starts showing its age, and the NEC looks like the most logical upgrade path. I briefly considered the 24" HP S-IPS, but I don't want to go through...

Hi all, I have been using a Belkin ergo kb for about 4 years now, and it stopped and somewhat reverted a bad wrists problem (exercising helped as well). Now, however, I absolutely require an ergo keyboard, or the wrist trouble comes back after several weeks of standard keyboard usage (pain +...

Hi all, A friend asked me for advice on his upgrade. Couple of years ago, he bought a Dell 2005FPW on my recommendation and has been very happy with it. Gradually he got into stock trading, and now wants 3 additional displays. 2005 and 2007 Dell models are not available any more, 2008 and...

Closing them up will not hurt the speakers in any way, will it? My BR-1 are only about 5 inches from the wall, and I'm growing increasingly annoyed by the wall reflection that muddies the bass. I'm sitting about 2 feet from the speakers, so room influence is negligible aside from the back wall...

Hi all, I was shopping for an ATA 133 40-contact cable (need a longer one), and noticed that 2 different designations exist: IDC40X3 and simply IDCX3 (this one is more expensive) Is there any compatibility difference or does the "40" just mean "40 pin connectors"? Neither google nor forum...

OK, I apologize for making threads so often lately :) but newegg has a rebate for X-Fi Fatality (good 'till Nov. 29, so I'm not late this time) which brings the final price to $133. (They also have a rebate for Xtrememusic, bringing it to $73, BTW). I toyed with the idea of getting an Elite...

And I thought I did my homework before buying parts... specifically, I saw many ppl running DS3 with PQI Turbo-667, bragging about great overclocks, etc. Well, my DS3 refuses to boot with this RAM unless I bump the voltage to 2.4 . The RAM simply cannot take it and about 15-25 minutes after...

Has anyone ordered from this website before? http://general-mall.com/product_info.php?products_id=908&language=en&cPath=4 It doesn't say "refurbished" anywhere ... Something must be fishy, right? Even the google search for "general-mall.com" returns nothing.

Thread title says it all, really. The only reason I'm asking is because Newegg has a $70 rebate on it right now, which brings the price to $210 (still not sure I'll get it, though... I planned to go with Juli@ sometime soon, but the deal is quite good) To be more specific...

Does anybody know of a decent desk lamp that can be positioned over the monitor, like this: If yes, what's the make/model and what is your experience? I am really looking to save space on my desk. I guess I am looking for something fairly large that would light up a nice working...

A while ago I made this thread: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1107179 asking for some input on my new computer build. I ended up getting the following: E6300 Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 PQi turbo 2GB ddr2-667 kit eVGA GeForce 7900GTO Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320 GB...

Hey every1, Has anyone used these: http://www.zzounds.com/item--QLKBS300 and has anything good/bad to say? My speakers are currently on my desk, and I don't have enough room to do homework comfortably. These stands are the cheapest I could find that don't look like flimsy crap. They...

Hi all, my current machine (in sig) really starts showing its age, and I decided that it's time for an upgrade at last. The problem is, while I still keep the "big picture" in mind when it comes to HW scene, I am really not on top of newest products, minute differences, etc. and I...

I think this is the correct subforum... My 1GB memorex flash key got corrupted somehow: the custom drive name is gone, XP thinks it's not formatted (but is unable to format it) and the capacity now shows as 16 megs. A qiuck google search gave a bunch of software I'm unfamiliar with and...

Hi all, I am going to build a computer for a friend. He is a 3d artist and stability under constant heavy load is the highest priority for him--he will be doing a lot of rendering. (SLI/Xfire and RAID are actually not necessary at all). It would be great if the price is not outrageous (i.e...

Hi all! Long story short, my friend (a 3d artist) is getting a new computer. He configured himself a machine from Tigerdirect (built by Systemax). The specs are as follows: A64 X2 4800+ WinXP Pro 2GB DDR400 250 GB 7200 rpm sata hdd All-capable...

According to slickdeals dot net. I don't need another one, but thought I'd share.

Disclaimer: I blame [H]ardforum(tm), particularly the "Computer Audio" section, for everything ;). Let me preface this by saying that I am by no means an audiophile, and don't really have any basis for comparing the Daytons with anything else. I just wanted to have good audio for...

Christmas is coming, and I really want to treat myself to a pair of nice bookshelves... My budget technically is <= $200. Here is what I have in mind so far, and some considerations: 1) Dayton BR-1. $150 for the shielded version. 45-18K Hz @ +-3dB. WxHxD: 8.5"x14.25"x11"...

I want to upgrade my sound setup to bookshelves + stereo receiver. After some research on receivers, it seems that Onkyo TX-8011 provides the best bang for the buck. It has 4 audio ins: CD, Phono, Tape1, Tape2. All look like normal RCA ins. My question is, how are the inputs different? Is...

A friend of mine who is getting into stock trading or somesuch, just asked me about a (cheapest possible) computer able to drive 4 (maybe even 8) monitors. Now, he did not give me any budget, just asked how much the cheapest solution would be. It is my understanding that 2 cards in...

Hey guys, Long story short, I got the 2005fpw recently with all the discounts going on. It arrived yesterday, I got it, but did not have too much time to examine it. The only thing I noticed last night were 3 dead light gray/white pixels. That did not bother me at all: they were in the...

What image stretching modes does it support? Same as 2405? (I.e. 1:1, fill screen, aspect stretch)? Sorry if it has been answered before, but I skimmed through the specs on the Dell website and found nothing, and the 2005 thread is just too long...

OK, I finally decided to treat myself with a nice audio setup. I am in college, and there is not much space, so 5.1 sets are out of the question. I am coming off onboard sound and 7-yr old no-name speakers. Also, I run Linux 95% of the time. So my questions would be: 1) Which sound card...

It seems that questions and debates regarding the Dell 2405FPW still appear regularly, so I figured a mini-review wouldn't hurt. Keep in mind that this is my 2nd LCD ever. My first one was a 15 inch NEC MultiSync 1550V, a 30 ms TN panel (according to Tom's Hardware). I never worked with...
