I just made the jump to Sandy Bridge from my E6750, and everything went smooth except for the formatting of my secondary HD. I've got a 120 GB Intel SSD for my windows installation and other programs, and a 320 GB maxtor for my games. After I got the computer up and running with windows 7, I...

Hey everyone. I picked up my Motorola Atrix on the 26th, and I've been messing around with it and enjoying it very much. My only problem with it so far is that I cannot download attachments via email on it; this applies to both Gmail and Yahoo. In my case, my friend sent me an .mp3 file. I was...

Asking $230 shipped, but give me your best offer. I accept Paypal only. The iPod is a first gen touch, 32 GB. It's been in a rubber case with a screen protector since day one. No scratches, and has been taken very good care of. Smoke free environment. Can post pics if necessary. Heat under...

So I recently made a deal with a member here on [H]. I sold them a used Abit motherboard. I provided them with the tracking number on time, and told them to PM if there were any problems. I checked in with them when the USPS told me it was delivered to make sure they got the package, and I told...

Hey all. I've got a few things for sale, and I will be posting pictures later this weekend. I've got heat under "mrmetal_53." On to the merchandise :D I'm willing to look into trades for AT&T smart phones 60 gig PS3 - PRICE DROP -- $365 shipped or $395 shipped with MGS4 (preferred) Comes...

So having recently purchased a subscription to Microsoft Technet, I was thinking of all the things I could do with all the licenses I now have access to, and naturally, reformatting was one of them :D So I decided that I want to reformat my just-over-a-year-old Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop. It...

So I am thinking of building an AM2 rig, using some spare parts I have (this is all due to me picking up a P182 SE......gave me a reason to build another PC). Anyways, right now, on my gaming computer, I am dual booting XP 32 and Vista Ultimate 64. Once I put together the AM2 rig, I was...

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I figured it might be better off in the general hardware forum than in the hard drive forum. Anyways, I just received my free copy of Vista Ultimate from Microsoft for the WFP program. Instead of doing a fresh install, I was thinking of...

I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong forum. Right now, I'm running Trend Mico PC-cillin on my Vista laptop. I think it is a pretty good anti-virus program, but my subscription runs out on the 14th. I got in on the deal (through Slickdeals) where I got a year of a-squared anti-malware...

Anyone know of any hot deals on a 4 gig of 8 gig memory stick? Looking to pick one up to put some shows on my newly purchased PSP :D

....my 360 red-ringed. I always knew, in the back of my mind, it would happen. You just never know how it feels till it happens to you. I have all these feelings inside of me. I just wanted to play some Gears of War online :(

I just picked up Crysis earlier tonight from CC. I was so excited to play the "sequel" to Far Cry. But after an hour or two of playing, something is really bothering me. I feel like the KPA soldiers just pop up right in front of me whenever I hit a trigger. For example, I scanned a forest with...

System specs: e6750 evga 680i evga 8800 gts (600/900) 2 gig ddr2 pc6400 firestix silverstone 560zf ps tuniq tower 120 So I left my computer on during the night, to run orthos to see if it was stable @ 3.4 ghz (425 x 8) and I wake up this morning to a frozen computer. Not really thinking...

I am kind of a loss here guys. It's late, and I could use some help. I just recieved my new e6750, EVGA 680i, and Tuniq Tower. I installed the heatsink as per the instructions, although I did have a little trouble getting the heatsink on. I finish installing everything, and turn the computer on...

I am just about to pull the trigger on a 6750 (when I can find a decent price on it), and I've already got a 680i (A1) from EVGA on the way. I want to get the best possible HS for my CPU. I was looking at the Tuniq Tower, and most of the reviews say that it is a great heatsink, just a little...

This is kinda of a weird question, but I figured I should ask it here. I bought the mentioned RAM about two months ago right after the Hot Deal when the memory was going for $120 (got it for $140 shipped from a member here on [H]). I bought it in preparation for a C2D build. My current set-up...

I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I just bought the Westinghouse 37w3 from Costco, and of course I want to make sure that I take the best care of it that I can. I've got normal surge protectors sitting around the house, but I wanted to see if I need the most 1337 one that they make to...

Just what the title says. How long should I run ATI tool to make sure my 8800 gts is rock solid? Are there other programs I should run too?

Exactly what the title says. I recently purchased an 8800 gts (EVGA). I uninstalled the old drivers, ran driver cleaner, installed the new drivers (97.92), and then installed n-tune. I had my card running stable at 627/900 with fan on 100% under ntune, but then I restarted and the settings went...

I am in the process of overclocking the said processor, and I am just wondering 1) what other people are running their processors at and 2) what is the range of acceptable voltages for said processor?

I have to admit, I have never flashed BIOS before :( With my recent luck, I have come into posession of a 7950 gx2. I read online that I need to flash the BIOS to the latest version to be able to use this card. To flash the BIOS, I have to install the latest chipset drivers. I am a little...

So the story starts a month ago. My XFX 7800 gt just died, and I was upset, having just purchased an EVGA 7800 gt used from a member on these forums. I had only used SLI for a couple weeks, and then my card dies with wacky artifacts all over the screen :( So after talking with their rep on...

Well, long story short, it seems as though my 7800 gt has fried. I need to send it back in to XFx for an RMA. However, I have to get the Zalman vf-700 cooler off and replace the original fan. 1) What is the best way to get those zalman ram sinks off, so I can put the stock cooler on? 2)...

hey guys, i am in the midst of overclocking the said processor now that i recieved my new ram. i raised to voltage from stock (1.35v) to what it said in the BIOS was 1.475v. when i used AI Booster or PC Probe (two utilities that came with my ASUS board), they list the voltage as fluctuating...

I had recently agreed with Lighthammer to purchase OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) EL DDR400 Mirrored Platinum XTC from him for $185 shipped. On November 21st, I sent him the money via paypal and sent him a PM on these forums to tell him that I had sent the money. I recieved a PM later that day saying that he...

i have an xfx 7800 gt. i have now decided to go SLI as a last upgrade before i go cold turkey and wait at least another year till the new hardware comes out and matures. so i am in the midst of picking up another 7800 gt (eVGA) from a member here on the FS forums. i am running the 84.21 drivers...
