I'm having issues during start-up of my latest PC build. First thing: this PC works! Just having some weirdness on startup. Once started it does not have performance issues. I have been able to get it to start each day, after some trouble. Here's the system in question: ASUS TUF Z490 Gaming...

Pics!

Doing a new build and I'm going to be in the position of having two sets of matching SSD's. 2 X Samsung 850 EVO 1TB 2 X Kingston HyperX 240 GB I was wondering if it would be worth my time to do RAID 0 on the two 240GB drives as the OS drive. Are the real world speed benefits...

I just ordered parts for a new rig. I'm getting a GTX 980 Ti and was wondering if my existing GTX 680 is worth keeping around for PhysX? Link to the build

Upgrading from the rig in my signature. Keeping my existing Antec P280 case and Corsair AX1200i PSU. Intel Core i7-6700K ASUS Z170-A CORSAIR Veneange LPX 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 2400 2 X Samsung 850 EVO 1TB SDD eVGA GTX 980 Ti Since I'm renovating I figured I may as well get: 5 X Fractal Design...

Willing to pay $5 per GB + shipping edit: need desktop 240 pin

Clicky with the details from the developer.

Been going on UI design binge recently.. figured I'd see if anyone else was up to anything in this department. Here's what I've done in the last 48 hours. "Jazz" Nova Launcher Prime, Light Grid Pro, Zooper Widget Pro (flat out stole/modded "DaveDate"), ADW Minimalist Icons, TeslaUnread...

Google made the Nexus 4 available to purchase again recently. The website says will ship in 2-3 weeks. My confirmation e-mail says 6 weeks. And then this morning, two days after ordering, I have a tracking number: order has shipped. Looks like Google/LG finally have things on track...

This is really more of a suggestion for HardOCP. I love [H] and want to support you guys as much as possible, so when I read news on your site that I want to share with others, I feel you deserve the ad hits. Sharing a link from [H] to Facebook is a multi-step process that seems like it...

I am having trouble getting Promox to see my RAID controller's virtual disks. I have created two RAID1 arrays and made them both a virtual disk in the configuration utility. However, when I boot the Proxmox installer, it sees the 4 hard drives instead of the 2 virtual disks. Any thoughts? Is...

So I bought 18TB (6 x 3TB) of storage for the server I'm building in my new house. The hard drives are SATA 6gb/s... after doing a little research I realized this density would have been better served with SAS drives, but the trigger has already been pulled so I'm posting here to see what you...

I want a Nexus 4, so bad it hurts to even look at my Nexus S 4G. Sadly it looks like Sprint isn't going to get any love on that front. I'm currently with Sprint and I love it, but I'm no fan boy. It's like AMD vs Intel or AMD/ATI vs nVidia... sure I *LOVE* AMD, but I'm always going to get...

I found this on 4walled.cc... any guesses on what this person is using to drive this UI? The bottom bar looks like a pretty standard power control widget, but the radial menu and the status bar have me stumped

I've been looking for a super stripped down install... nothing but the base system and a display manager; no more bloat. I think I finally found what I'm looking for. Got Gentoo up and running in Virtualbox with gnome-light Nothing to really say about it, just wanted to brag.. no one in...

As of this morning's update my Google Wallet is now linked directly to my VISA cards... haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Any success stories out there? I'm using a Nexus S 4G, running Cyanogenmod 9 RC 2

Update: Everything sold, thanks for all the help!!! This equipment comes from my last build that had a faulty Hauppauge WinTV card plugged into one of the mobo's regular PCI slots. This caused the system to hang and the motherboard to revert to factory defaults. Once I had the system back up...

Just built a computer for a friend with this board and was fairly impressed. We got it into the case and wired enough to POST and it wasn't booting. Lots of fans spinning and pretty lights but that was it. He had purchased 24GB of G.Skill 1333 DDR3, I figured maybe he was having some...

Just upgraded to a 128GB SSD and am extremely happy with it. It’s blazing fast compared to my RAID 0 (2 x WD Black 500GB). However, 128GB isn’t nearly enough space to install all my applications. My Steam folder alone weighs in at 153GB. Unfortunately, Steam doesn’t allow...

Did anyone else get the e-mail? Seems they got hacked. Does any actually play RIFT? I never made it past the free trial.

Had a friend give me his PC because the video would cut out after some use. I told him the fan on the video card was probably shot. I hit the nail on the head. I noticed the sticker bling was half peeled off, so I removed it and found the heat shroud had melted into artwork...

Just loaded CM7. Really digging it so far, the phone seemed a little snappier after flashing the rom... quadrant says there is about a 700 point difference (~1300 stock, ~1950 after)... is that typical?

http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/natty/alpha1 I just installed Unity on my laptop to take a look... it's evolved quite a bit since I last used it on a netbook, but I'm still not really impressed. I mean, this isn't that big of deal "sudo apt-get install gdm" and fixed.. but I don't know.. maybe...

I was having some trouble installing dropbox in my Debian box At first it wouldn't install because it said this: But I was like 2.30.1-2 > 1:2.22.2, what's the problem? I said screw this and was able to get it install using.. sudo dpkg -i --force-depends nautilus-dropbox_0.6.7_i368.deb it...

I keep all of the pictures that I post on this forum (or anything else I find funny) on my web site here. I wrote a PHP script to serve up the pictures automatically.. Today I updated the script to serve up the pictures 10 at a time instead of having 150+ pictures all loading...

Installed Linux Mint isadora today. I loaded it into a VM at first.. that lasted all of an hour before I put it on my laptop. I'm really excited about this distro... it's really snappy, most of the GUI configs that I want are already installed... and not much else really... just bare...

Not sure what's gotten into me... I never overclock. When I got home today and hopped on my computer I didn't even let it get past POST... I just went into the bios and did it. So here it is, my first OC (on the system in sig)... everything seems good, prime95 is still running as I type...

(all of this troubleshooting was done over the phone) A co-worker was looking to upgrade his computer so his daughter could play the Sims 3. He's running a 2.8ghz single core P4 with integrated graphics... his initial attempts were met with some pretty hardcore failure. I tried to...

I'm using a Viewsonic VG2030WM 20" and playing EVE at 1680x1050... is old age catching up to me or are the fonts in that game ridiculously small and hard to read? I had to move the screen closer... really enjoying the game, just hate that it makes me feel like I'm going blind.

I just found a copy of Tomb Raider Underworld at Target on the discount rack for $14.99. I liked TR:Legend, but am not about to drop $49.99 on a new copy of Underworld. To make my fortune even greater, I took the game to Gamestop and found out the trade-in value is still $17 and some...

Right now I'm using an old no name ATX case I bought from a mom and pop shop in like 2001. It's a nice case for the era, the sides slide into place and are held in by a third peice that slides into the top.. one thumb screw, two slides and i'm in. But all is not well... the case is too...

I notice in my profile settings there is a place for my ICQ, MSN, Skype, AIM, and Yahoo ID's... Do you guys think you'll ever add fields in the user profile for Steam and MS Live? (Well now that I've typed that.. there is probably a way to link up MSN and Live, or at least there should be...

I'd like to be watch TV on my desktop in my office. I'm using a D-Link DIR-655 in my living room that is connected to the cable modem. I'm running a single cat5 cable into my office that is connected to an 8-port D-Link switch. What devices would allow me to stream my cable TV over my...

I am reformatting a computer for a co-worker. I'm charging her a flat $50 for the labor. (Hey, it's cheaper than geek squad!) She did not have any of the restore disks that came with the computer. I'd like to install Windows XP Home on her machine from one of my disks, but use her legit key...

I’ve been putting Ubuntu on tech illiterate friends and family for some time now... primarily to keep them from hurting themselves on the internet. I’m talking garden variety illiterates, those who just use their computers for the internet and maybe a game of solitaire. Over the course of the...

Right now I'm running two machines, my desktop (in sig) and a server (bottom of post). I use my server to compress video files into divx, download files, host ftp, host an old school bbs (online), fold, and anything else that requires lots of processing or time and minimal babysitting. The...

One of my best friends just bought a new laptop... as group computer geek it falls on me to scrub all the bloatware off of it for him so he can start using it. While doing that I fire up cpuz just to find out whats under the hood and what to my suprise do I see? A brand spanking new Penyrn...
