Im in same spot right now but I think im gonna get a 22" Dont think im ready to run games at 1600x1200.. what ever native is on 24" Once you set at that resolution theres no turning back so I dont wanna effect my self and have problems running future games. Enjoy what ever you get but I...

So iv been waiting for this card for nothing? I thought there was a 512 meg version of this 8800GT and was going to be 250 dollers. Theres no way ill spend over 250 dollers on a video card as its totally insaine.

LOL i remember those days of 400 being top end. That was with the ATI 8500 Still have that card. Was soooo sweet. Glad to see it also as my 120 doller 2600xt is a piece of crap. Also hate the idea of spending that much money on one part which is only needed for gaming. 250 should be top...

Thanks so much guys. I never see anyone sell them for that cheap though. I would be really lucky to pick it up for 250. Dont know why people sell them for cheap here.

Just wondering if these video cards are going to get a price drop? Im deciding if I should by this used one for 300cdn dollers which is the 320 mb version. Im hearing they wont make them soon and wonder if price is gonna drop anyway? Will the prices ever drop as to me 300 is really expensive...

Hi guys, I just put together my computer and for some reason my stock cpu fan on my athlon 5600 x2 cpu goes crazy for no reason. Im getting crazy rpms on my cpu fan and its driving me insain! I look into the bios and cpu is a nice 33 degrees and fan is like 3000-3200 rpm. Then in idle in...

Simple question, which one of those 2 monitors would you take if either one is offered to you for free? Main difference is specs are acer is 800:1 contrast ration and lg is 3000:1 Lg is 2 ms while acer is 5ms And of course acer is 2 inch bigger.

Yes the SN number matches the box and the chip just that ADA code is different. On box says the box at end but cpu says the 6CZ. Guess its nothing. Just got little curious just becuase the price was to good to be true at a little local computer store. Im installing this bad boy!

Well i just got home from computer store and I ended up buying the 5600 :) Its not 65 watt but at least its not 125 :) 155 cdn... cant complain. One thing i just noticed now though looking at the cpu the code number is ADA5600IAA6CZ which i just read is the code for the oem version yet i...

Thanks, you guys are awsome. Think im gonna go with the 65nm 5000 x2 cpu. Im gonna be playing games and watching movies in my room so its gonna run heavy load. I thought my old 939 3500 cpu ran hotter then 125w but in fact it runs at 89 i think and from what i remember it got hot in my...

Ok im not sure if im being a total dumbass then. Just wondered if the fan had control of that heat and really that extra 60 watt wont have effect on room tempature.

Hi. Im kinda concerned about how much heat my computer generates as it is in my bedroom and nothing is more nerve wreaking then being hot :) Im wondering is there actually a difference in how much output of heat a 65w cpu generates compaired to a 125w? I know of course it does but im...

Im on x2 3800 with 1 gig ram and 7600-7700 i dont know nvidia video card. I can play hd movies but when i transcode hd movies to my xbox 360 its choppy. Im wondering what kind of computer i need o run it smooth. This computer is in basement and xbox in home theater and it uses media center.

Is this actually true? I already noticed about a month ago they dropped like 10 dollers. Its gonna drop more again? I have all my computer parts but I held out on the cpu. Now that I hear this black box 5000 and price drops im freaking out becuase now might as well wait. Im considering the...

Is it just me or is this cpu absolutly not worth it unless you overclock it to 3.5. I mean te original 5000 goes for 130 CDN and theres reports of price drop next week. THe black box 5000 goes for 150 and doesnt even have a heatsink/fan so your adding min of 20 dollers. You can buy te 6000...

Wonder if canadacomputers and stores like that will get it. And its 20 dollers more then standered 5000.

Where you get this black edition and when does it come out? I was just gonna buy a normal 5000 cpu today when im reading this. I was deciding the 5000 of just the BE-2350 and overclock it.

Wow what a sweet mothrebaord. To bad its sold out and on back order everywhere! damn!

Well Theres no way im going to spend even 250 for a video card. To me its stupid spending that much money on something thats only needed to play games. Thats only one part too. I used to have a athlon 64 3500 with radeon x800pro and it ran halflife 2 pretty fine. Ill take intel route as...

I havnt decided on which monitor i wanna buy but its gonna be 20 or 22 inch so native res is 1680x1025. 20 inch with 2 ms is same price as 22 inch with 5 ms so im just debating on which one i want. Im gonna see if my friend at work can get me this motherboard since he has hook ups and gets...

Well i really dont have a budget. Just putting a limit. im thinking around 100 for motherboard and 150 for cpu. I wanna be able to play halflife 2 again. Counter strike source and upcoming Team fortress 2. Also I really hope I can play brotheres in arms 3, as it looks amazing and i love...

Iv been reading up on overclocking and want to try for my first time So far im getting a gigavyte GA-G33M-DS2R motherboard and I was wondering since the E2180 is like 40 dollers cheaper and same clock speed wouldnt it be te better buy? Im hearing that in fact its better at overcloking too...

I realized that i wont need a q6600. Im gonna use the computer in my room so its for playing around. Gonna do some gaming and watch movies. I already bought 2 gig or ram and radeon x2600 xt video card. Gonna use a 22 inch monitor. Using 74 gig raptor harddrive and audigy 2 zs sound card...

This is where it really confuses me. You can just buy a athlon x2 5000 which is 2.5 ghz already and am2 motherboards are almost half the price of intel motherboards. Im sure you can overclock 2.5 to 3 no problem as well. And you only spend like 220 dollers for both. To get same value youll...

Wow thats a really nice motherboard. Shame its so much money. Plus gotta order it online which not a fan of. Thanks, this is really on top of intel motherboar list. Sucks thats the intel gigabyte motherboard is almost double the price of the amd. Same as anyother make. I cant get my self...

Damn that looks sexy! You made me put this on my list to buy. Found it for 100 cdn at local computer store. But then i saw this MSI g33m motherboard which is 10 dollers more but at least it has 4 dimm slots and not just 2. Plus is a g33 chipset and says it supports the new 45mn cpus when...

Hey guys. Going crazy trying to find and choose the right motherboard. I am looking for a mini motherboard only as thats all I need and I only like keeping small tower in my room. Also im on the cheap side as i just switched my mind over to intel from AMD and all there motherboards are...

Nice motherboard. Looking for a cheap micro motherboard to overclock a e4400 cpu. Where you picking it up in canada? any other micro cases will do a great job in overclocking? nothing over 120 dollers canadian

But the 5000 is clocked at 2.6 already and dont think it can just as easy be clocked to 3.2? What im seeing is the cost CDN prices AMD motherboard: 70 dollers...

Hi guys. Im buying a new computer which I wanna throw some gaming in there too. I already bought a 2600xt ati video card and good 2 gig ram. Still deciding which motherboard and cpu to get. Noticing that the AM2 motherboards are almost half in price as the Intel really attracts me and the...

Just waiting for the price to drop.

Nice. Can this be done with stock fan/heatsink for cpu? I know ram is important so I did put the extra money into that.

Thanks. I sorta have the cash but dont like the idea of blowing that much money for gaming. Really people can do with the cheapest dual core cpu.. anything more is gaming and video editing.

Hello Just wondering if a AM2 athlon 64 x2 4200 or anyother speed for that matter as good to overclock as they say a intel dual core is? I just picked up a athlon 64 x2 4200 for cheap but wondering if it would be better to spend another 50 dollers and get a intel 4300 or 4400? What...

I dont like returning opened products. Also i noticed at futureshop the samsung monitors had HORRIBLE color. They demo this forest with dragons and stuff in a dark setting with glowing lights. THe samsung monitors didnt show any green hue in the darkness which made everything look so dark...

I hear alot of this A and S panels of this monitor but how are C panels? My local stores have C on theres and said S is hard to come by. Are these C versions no good?

The HP is a nice one. I work at costco and we have it but only sells with computer and not alone :( It really looks just like the samsung monitor though so go for that one if HP monitor is your liking.

I wrap mine in shrink wrap so it will perfect it from everything. You never know. I asked my grandmother where she gets those plastic covers for the sofas to see if they sell them for monitors. I already put it on my computer chair. LOL

Theres no point in 24 inch for a computer. First off they are so expensive and no one is gonna run their computer at its native resalution for gamming. So if you saying that moving to a 22 inch is worse becuase pixels are bigger then 24 inch is gonna look even worse. Plus we are talking 2...

How much cheaper can the 4300 be dropping in July anyway? Im planning on building a computer also and the parts you listed are the same parts on my list that I cant deicide. First I was gonna go with 4300 with 1950pro then I heard price drop so I moved up to q6600 with 8800gts 320 video...
