So windows 8 hits MSDN today and instead of hating on it I think I might like it more if I made use of the touch screen aspects. Are there any quality Touchscreen monitors? Keep in mind I currently have a 2690wuxi (1st one) so I am sensitive to quality. However I don't have as much money...

SOLD

I just sold my GTX 280 but now I realize it was a poor decision because I will have to pay good $$ for less than 5% improvent given the cards that are currently out. I don't really like SLI/Dual cards because of bad experiences in the past (both Xfire and SLI) What should I do? Are the next...

Its warm here in FL -- If the AC dies on us during midnight, we could fry our servers. Anyone have any experience with scheduling a windows shutdown in the event that, for example, the room gets to 90*F? We use a temperature probe from Ravica that works to tell temp and humidity but we need to...

@ RAID 6 Volume on Areca 1222 Controller: I have some files and directories I can't delete, move because they are corrupted. I asked Windows to perform a full check on this storage Volume but it always ends with "unknown error" after having supposedly found and deleted some orphan files...

Hi Folks Please help me put these things together: I have a GTX 280 that has SPDIF input: Pic I have a P6T Mobo that has a 4 pin internal SPDIF out. After these 2 things are connected via this cable, I am under the impression that I need a unique DVI+Sound to HDMI adapter to transmit the...

Hey, folks Here are the benches for my RAID0 w/ 2x 300GB Velociraptors as well as RAID6 w/ 6x Seagate 1.5TB HDDs (Using Areca 1220) The graphs don't look quite right -- like if there's a cap... RAID0: [SNIP] RAID6 [SNIP]

I'm adding 2x Seagate 1.5TB HDDs to my existing 4x 1.5TB RAID5 array. (on an Areca 1220 Controller) Can I add 2 drives to increase capacity? Can I convert it to RAID6 for more security? Thanks

Thanks all who replied ::NUKES THREAD::

Hey guys For my netbook, size is not an issue. What is the fastest SSD HDD for less than $300? Thanks

Anyone? I've set one up in our Production environment. Specs: q6600 Intel DG33FB 8GB 800mhz Ram Hyper-V Server on an old raptor 74gb The VMs are on a RAID 10 Array (4x WD640s) w/ Areca 1210 So far I've had no problems running this. Installing the drivers for the controller required using...

I wanted to test out the ramdisk app folks have been mentioning. I tried loading a Quake 4 level. From HDD: 45 seconds to load from Ramdisk: 25 :eek: too bad it is $100 cos I'd pounce on this thing if the x64 version was $50. is this really popular or did I happen upon some secret knowledge :p

Which should I do? This will be my OS install -- all my data will be in RAID6 Any ideas?

How do I initialize my new RAID5 array to be GPT so windows can see it? If I un-RAID them I can create a RAID array in Vista but it is 2GB max (huge waste of space). I am using the Intel Matrix Controller on my DFI X48T2R Any tips? BTW, according to this...

I'd love to have a really high capacity HDD. Are the current TB drives as good as a theoretical WD640 successor?

Hey, folks Is this possible? Using what tools? Currently I tried Vista's Backup and Restore Center to backup my AHCI Vista SP1 x64 to 3x Raptor 74gb RAID0 -- booting from the Vista DVD. Unfortunately, it wouldn't let me and it also spat out any drivers I tried to supply. Is the fact that I'm...

Hey, folks Does anyone know if it would be easy to remove the sticker on a GTX280? My Mobo is green and the Asus GTX280 is purple. Green+Purple=YUCK Also, if I remove the sticker: Should anything go wrong, what is the likelyhood of being refused RMA (provided everything else is in order)?

I saw like 5x Retail boxes for the Western Digital Raptor X 150GB for $109 today at best buy. I bought 2x; almost bought 3. YMMV, of course BB in Miami, Fl -- Dadeland Mall

WORKS ON ANY BRAND XT OR XTX This is a modified Sapphire toxic bios (Also known as Sapphire Blizzard). I changed all the relaxed timings to regular XTX speeds which makes it actually faster than the toxic card. The fan is made to run faster under load. My purpose was to not have to use ATI...

Basically, I notice that sometimes the settings for the profiles I created don't work. I have chuck patch installed. Perfectl example is using ATI Tray Tools I made an Oblivion profile that had the following: 6xSSAA, 16xAF. I launch my profile I have what appears to be 2xAA (or nothing)...

I tried everything -- the sucker won't let go... Anyone have any experience with this?

I'll leave a review of the 20WMGX2 as soon as I get it in the mail ::nevermind -- too lazy. review: awesome LCD

Anyone getting texture shimmering in FEAR? I'm using CAT 6.3+chuck. AA and AF are set to app preference (HQ AF enabled) and mip maps set to max. To be honest I've noticed more texture shimmering with my x1900xt than with my old 7800GT set to High Quality mode... Just wondering if anyone...
