I stumbled upon this website before and remember reading about it in a linux magazine, brushing it off as improbable, but there seem to be a decent amount of hype about this. I just havent seen any reviews or testimonies regarding bandwidth issues or lag or artifacts and was wondering if anyone...
Im not sure if this is an issue but I want to be sure. I have the 500gb samsung drive and I'm not sure of its model name, but I'm pretty sure theres only one 500gb samsung. Anyway it makes this sinlge click noise whenever it powers up and I don't any of my others drives have ever made that kind...
I'm looking to take any <$200 system that you guys have off your hands. I need something for file storage, simple server stuff and potentially a mythtv backend, so a PCI slot would be a plus. I'll take integrated CPU's or a socket 478 ITX motherboard. If your willing to sell your CPU along with...
For some reason EVERY SINGLE TIME I level up the game crashes in Oblivion. This is still true after many patches, re-installs, and even after I had to reformat my comp. I am at wits en d and I cant find any1 else who had this problem using google. Some1 here must know what the hell is wrong. Plz...
Im building a PC for college that might be somewhat too much for an SFF but would like some ppl's considerations before I make up my mind. It will have an x2 3800 or the conroe equivalent, 2GB RAM,74GB Raptor,500GB WD hdd,x1900xt(also wondering if the HIS version worth it),soundcard. I would...
Hey I've recently discovered the Google toolkit and I work part time for a tech support company coding in Java, and I thought that a widget driven service could really help our customers in an interesting new way. One option to code this seems to be using this new Google toolkit. Anyone mind...
I am going to put toghether an h20 rig soon with a tdx, mcw60(on a new x1900,not the 78 in sig), and I want it as quiet as possible. A BIP3 could be a PITA to fit, but supposedly they can have 3 fans on low rpms handle anything. But if a BIP2 could handle all the heat @ low rpms anyway ,except...
Recently the picture be it w/i a browser window, or the desktop it self, has been resetting randomly, whenever I startup the comp. Sometimes when I turn it on it happens ans sometimes it doesn't. Usually by either restarting the comp, or by changing the resolution to something else, and then...
LG w/ impressive numbers
The monitor seems good on paper, but I'm not hearing much buzz about, can anyone comment on this thing, at $500 it seems like a definate buy for me.
I just OC'd my core succesfully to 2.5 and i started to play some games on it. However for some reason the MBM alarm go off when it reached 60C so now when I ended the game I saw the CPU was @ 62C for atleast 45 min. along with the chipset @ 65 and the GPU @ 70. I haven't noticed any artifacts...
My bro has been eying my 4200, and I'm starting to think that moving to a 146 might be a good idea. However I'm worried that a 4200 which, even though can hardly reach 2.4 ghz, could actually play faster in games because of nVidias dual core driver optimizations, and because of upcoming dual...
I've heard that though the 9500 has some incredible performance it tends to get loud. Also those blue fans kinda clash with my cases lights. So could you put in your own choice of fans somehow?
My idea is to give my GTX better cooling by simply putting its face upwards instead of downwards. To do this I will use the spare PCI slot that's above the current slot that the real PCIx16 slot is hooked up to, and screw the GTX into this slot, facing upwards (with a few mods to its PCI...
I'm looking to buy one of the new 6100/50 chipset mobo's
I'm interested in both the biostar 6150, however I'm sceptical about it's stability.
I'm also interested in the new ASUS comptetitor, at the higher price.
My main goal is to make this PC into very stable, and possibly OC'ing extra...
I'm considering ordering an opteron, and getting rid of my X2 4200 since it sucks @ OC'ing. No matter what I do I cannot get this thing to 2.5 ghz. Sometimes 2.4 isnt even stable, and that just aint gonna cut it for some games. I'm lookig to be able to reach 2.6 @ a nice vCore and a nice temp...
I would like to thank any1 ahead of time for any provided:
Anyway, the problem is that because I change drivers and use new pieces of hardware (vid card, snd card, RAM,etc) and OC often the comp tends to become unusable and unstable after a while, and it is a major pain in the ass to reformat...
Say if I were to buy a nice set of headphones such as the HD595's which are known for great soundstaging, what sort of drivers, sound cards, etc. would I have to use to have accurate positional audio. Would I realy have to sacrifice Stereo music quality by buying an X-fi(EAX3,4,5/SMSS 3d), or...
As i said my 7800gtx is returning some dissapointing results.
70fps w/ 4STAA and 8AF in CSS stress test
60% <25fps, 30% >25fps <50fps, 10% >50fps (wtf!!!) this is with 1024 res, max everything but volumetric lights, 2x AA, 4 AF, soft shadows off,
I tried 78.03, 81.82, 78.05, 81.82, so...
-I have an X2 Manchester, which I will be OC'ing till atleast 2.6ghz, quite possibly higher tho, and at about 1.6 V, so lots of heat will be involved, I will be using either the MCW 6002 or the TDX
-I also plan on cooling a 7800GTX, which may also become an SLI'd 78, I will run the 3/8 Maze4...
like the tittle says, i ve narrowed my choices down to these 2 headphones, I'm still thinking maybe I should get the 595 but it is so much more expensive for supposedly small increases.
I'm going to be listening to a lot of music with these things, mostly rock tecno, jazz, so the upper lows and...
Title is self explanatory, I don't really know any good places to find these headphones,

What's the difference between these 2?
they are almost $100 apart, and I can't figure out the difference

Well Dell is having another sale 25% displays or something like that
I would love to get some F.E.A.R. on with a larger monitot (hope my 7800 is up to it :confused: But that means parting with my dear L90D. So the real question is...is it worth it?
I will be using my system to game on headphones about 40% of the time and listening to music on my headphones 60% of the time. 3d sound on the headphones seems like a really cool idea that I'd like to get into, in which case the x-fi comes to mind. However I hear that music can sound like pure...
Heres wat i got
-LiLi Pc65 case (might be getting a cube case later tho)
-X2 4200 Cpu
-Dfi Sli Dr Mobo
-4x512 OCZ plats
-Evga 7800 GTX
-WD2500KS HDD
I would like to cool as many ofthese components as possible, might want to overlook the HDD and the RAM however.
Keep in mind I hava...
Like the Title says I got PTC from my School. I'd like to use it in order to design my next watercooled workstation, and I was wondering if there are any good resources for PC component files for this CAD program, or if there are any places where people share their knowledge on this sort of thing?
I have the oppertunity to get a Dell 2005 widescreen lcd, for very little from a family member. However I like gaming and movie watching. For this money however, I could also get a good CRT and double it with my imagequest so i can get the best of both worlds. so my concerns for this display...
Hey
I am out and about looking for a good audio set up
Ive got my xfi handy, and about 150 to spare, so what set of cans would be best for me, (and amp if necessary)?
Im a big gamer so, positioning is important, as well as detail. However I rock out, as much as I game, so it should be...
