So I am trying to set up a bridge/repeater as per awesome diagram. First off, is this a repeater network? wireless bridge? The netgear router has a nifty option to set it in repeater mode, but the linksys has issues being connected directly to the modem. So I am now trying to make the...

So for now, my tearing and checkering issues have been reduced to a single scan line on my third monitor, which tbh, doesn't really bother me since its in my peripheral vision anyway. The only thing that has changed is that the scan line is no longer slowly moving upwards, but extremely slowly...

Ok, I installed the hotfix, and the checkering and majority of the tearing went away! :D but now I'm having issues with crossfire not working 100% :mad: Issues like crossfire getting disabled, one core clock running at overclock speed and the other at hardware defaults, etc.... :confused: I...

Like the title said, I've been having various issues which I am pretty sure are graphics related that I cant seem to iron out. Mainly, despite gaming with vsync enabled, disabled, and all combinations in between, (both via the catalyst control center, and/or the application settings) I still...

Ok, so an update: After erasing all the old drivers, and updating the card with the newest version, the stuttering finally stopped. However, the card kept losing network connection after 5 minutes or so and refused to reconnect until after a restart, only to repeat the problem. During the 5...

Ahh wrong message board! please ignore

I have no antivirus, and have all the updated/reinstalled drivers for both cards. I haven't really downloaded stuff (this is a new build) other than the windows updates and the like, so i doubt its a virus. I tried the D-link card again, and stuttering stopped \o/ of course now I have to...

I am having a weird problem that I cant pinpoint. For some reason, whenever I go online, or have a program that downloads stuff (i.e. steam) tries to go online, about 80% of the time my entire computer starts stuttering. The stutters last anywhere from .5 to 4 seconds and occur every 1-3...

I was intending on using Raid for performance. I know that RAID =/= Backup, and I do have a small backup external hdd for all my important stuff. Since raid 5 is out of the picture anyway, the only thing I was considering was having my two old 500 gb drives in raid 1 for program files and the...

Ok, the microcenter near me does have that cpu. Looking at some Z68 mobos, I came across this: GIGABYTE GA-Z68X-UD4-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard and Crucial M4 CT064M4SSD2 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) combo - $274.98 So I...

Okay, so after abit of looking around I found that I could not improve on Danny Bui's build. So this is pretty much what I have finalized. I included the harddrives in the total cost, but am planning on holding off on that purchase until I need it. However, I still have a few questions...

Thanks, Danny, this is pretty much what I was I looking for! I do have two questions: I'd like to keep my P180 case. Its roomy, quiet, and I love the look. Plus, if the graphic cards are extra long, i can remove the drive bay to make room. Any reason you recommended the other cases (other...

In terms of games that already are out there, I would like to be able to play DCS: A10C on all three monitors with high graphics. Also games like Mass Effect 2, Portal 2, Starcraft 2, EVE: incarnia, various FPS's, etc etc. Not planning on playing 3d games per se. If I do, I wouldn't mind just...

Hi everyone, its been a while (5 years!). Its about time I replace my aging computer, and realized that I am completly ignorant on the status of today's hardware. So, of course, I am asking for your help :D! I want to build a best-bang-for-the-buck computer that can drive 3 monitors at 1920 x...

okay, a bit of an update: using rivatuner and Rthdribl i was able to get the core up to 490 from 279 mhz and the mem up to 1377 from 1260. the weird thing was, putting the core any higher did not do anything until i reached 501, and then the actual core speed would jump from 490 to 513 mhz...

yea, my gigabyte board was PITA from beginning to end

I did a quick google and |H|ard search, and nothing that fits my problem showed up. Basically, I think its about time to squeeze the last amount of juice from my system and overclock it. since i was going to put a fresh windows install anyway, i experimented a bit with rivatuner and...

--i missed that discount code by 12 minutes... but about the thinkpad, I would've gone through with it, but my order from newegg just happed to ship, and if i had gone with the thinkpad i would have needed to return the ram for a pair of ddr3 sticks and thats too much trouble....

holy crap, you just sealed the deal for me. Im canceling my dell tomorrow!!!

alright, I went ahead and bought the 1420; but holy crap, that T400 is looking really nice... (in a specs sort of way, cause damn, that's one ugly laptop...) by graphics software i mean stuff like solid works, pro engineer, photoshop, and maybe even matlab (although i'd think it would be more...

Ok, after a bit of researching, ive come up with two configurations: Inspiron 13: 1280x800 res. core 2 duo T8300 (2.4GHz, 800Mhz fsb/3mb cache) intergrated intel media accelerator x3100 4 gb ram (from newegg) 320gb 7200 rpm hdd (from newegg) from reviews: ~4 hr battery life with...

alright so i tried out the compaq, (its a v2000). IMO i think 300 is a decent deal, but Im just looking for a second opion here. (heres my situation: im low on mula, and need a laptop; and $300 for a decent (at least i think) laptop that will carry me until my next big purchase is a-ok in my...

He let me try out the Eee pc and yea, its pretty small (I have gorilla-hands...). He'll bring the compaq sometime next week so I'll know the model then..

He's selling a Compaq and EeePC for $300 each. I'm interested in the compaq since I badly need a laptop for school. specs are: Compaq (~14" wide) 2.0 GHz 64-bit AMD processor 60Gb hd 1Gb ram 128mb ATI Graphics Card mem card reader Bluetooth/wireless/ethernet EeePC (~8 inches...

I guess its about time I upgrade from my 4000. asking price ~$35 for the 4800 and best deal for the fx. will do paypal, will negotiate

great, thanks

I am installing a computer right now and on its manual it says (vaguely) to hook up both the vga and dvi connections. i could do that, but i always thought it was one or the other. i have cables for both, and connections for both on the lcd and computer. currently its working fine afaik with...

right now the silver p180 is $80 amr ( $120 upfront) at newegg. question is, how much better is the 182; aside ffrom the w/c holes and mobospace in the back? does the $40 -$60 dollar hike deliver something worthwhile? or is the p180 fine as it is

I have a 550 watt, 24 pin FSP Group FSP550-60PLN psu that worked great until recently. (well, actually its been a while but w/e). the computer would not turn on at all, and the 5v standby line was acting weird (my mouse has a led on it that is usually always on, but now it was pulsing like...

Its been a while, but i have some updated info to the problem. I initally leaned on the psu being the source of trouble, but now im starting to think the mobo is the culprit. first off, i tested my psu's voltages, and everything was where it should have been. second i hooked up my psu to my...

ok, i bought a decent 24 pin psu (antec earthwatts 500w) and everything worked as expected. so im deducting that its my old psu thats busted. so, does anybody know if there is a page where to find what amperages one can expect from each of hte mobo connector's pins? or do they vary greatly from...

i dont really know of a viable way to fit just 20 pins of the psu on the mobo (well, anything short of hooking twenty wires from the mobo to the psu or buying an adapter...) however, there is a fry's nearby, so i might buy a test psu if they have a return policy...

forgot to mentions something: when the forton psu was hooked up, it seem to apparently 'pulse' electricity through. Basically, my mouse has led scroll light that usually is always on, even when the computer is shut down, and when it was hooked up to the psu, the led was flickering. i dunno if...

get a forton, they have pretty good quality psu's for lower-end systems

guys, i need some help... im not sure if this is a psu or a mobo problem, so im posting this in both forums. anybody have any idea what the problem is? first off, what happened as far as i can remember: equipment: psu: forton 550 watt fsp550-60pln (24 pin) mobo: gigabyte ga-k8n ultra 9 (24...
