I have three ASUS VS239H-P monitors connected through DVI, two are connected to the Radeon R9 270x and one is connected to the motherboard. My problem is that on the two monitors connected to the Radeon, all videos have jagged edges like this: http://i.imgur.com/NYbGANc.png versus smooth edges...

Crystal Disk Info should be able to tell you what model the actual HDD is.

Their limited information say that it has up to 40GB/s PCIe 3.0 bandwidth which comes out to 40 lanes. That's the same number of lanes as the X79 chipset from 2011 (although that one is PCIe 2.0) so I'll believe the 40GB/s number. Supposing each Thunderbolt 2 port gets 20Gb/s (note: bits vs...

Seems like the LOW P model only comes with the low profile bracket, when I got my regular M1015 it came with both brackets.

You think they make those PCI-Express cards with way over 1GB/s transfer speeds and never bother to make a single model that can saturate SATA III? SATA (at least III) uses 8b/10b encoding which means the theoretical transfer speed is 80% of the technical, so 600 MB/s (EDIT: as stated here). Add...

Perhaps you could consider buying a replacement battery for your current UPS? http://www.batterymart.com/c-replacement-apc-ups-batteries.html

What is very fast about a change of less than 1% for any of the resolutions?

How do powerline ethernet adapters work? How do HDMI to ethernet adapters work? Is the HDMI signal converted into a standard ethernet signal (802.3, Ethernet frame), or is it just taking advantage of the wires of an ethernet cable and utilizing its own signal? What about the powerline...

Disappointed at PNY's packing design. http://www.mylilsite.net/images/sandybridge-1/t2graphicsPacking2.jpg http://www.mylilsite.net/images/sandybridge-1/t2graphicsCard2.jpg Bent the plate back with pliers and it works in my Q6600 system for now. I also did not expect the CPU box's lines...

Good news guys, I ordered the ASUS P8Z68-V PRO and will be leaving a note on my door to say to reject the Asrock delivery of which a friend just confirmed for me that Newegg gives 100% refund (including the shipping cost) that way.

Ah, since I filtered as any Z68 board and sorted by Most Reviews (and mentally ignored mATX results, 'cause I'm too lazy to do further filters), I would have to go down the list pretty far to see either of the possible $170 and $210 Gigabyte boards... On the other hand, I sorted by Most Reviews...

The Gigabytes have no onboard monitor out ports, no mention of support for Quick Sync through Virtu in the specs on their site or Newegg, and have equally lacking information in the user reviews regarding the sole feature that even made me want a Z68 board. The MSI somehow managed to get...

lol, replies over a day later... eek.. So I ordered all but the CPU about an hour before your post, Danny. :p The motherboard was changed though. I figured that if I end up using my current PSU then I way underblew my target budget, so I'm going with the ASRock Z68 Extreme4 and the 2600K for...

So I've ordered the Crucial 64GB CTFDDAC064MAG-1G1 as a Shell Shocker for $89.99 + tax. Its almost the same model as the one in my parts list but I can't actually tell whats different about it other than the one I ordered has 5 eggs and more reviews. $178.00 SILVERSTONE RV02B-EW - Amazon...

That's comforting news, thanks! :) So seeing as how the eVGA GTX 560 Ti I had selected no longer has its rebate, is this an acceptable substitute? $209.99 - Amazon.com: PNY nVidia GeForce GTX560 Ti 1GB DDR5 2DVI/Mini HDMI PCI-Express Video Card VCGGTX560TXPB...

With Newegg's current Shell Shocker being G.SKILL Ripjaws 8GB F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL for $59.99, I went ahead and ordered two. Also the order brought to my attention that the tax rate was 8.25% rather than the 9.75% for my county... So yay, kind of. Recalculated with new tax and: $178.00...

Draft list #3, not linked so to avoid that automated crap from my previous list post. $178.00 SILVERSTONE RV02B-EW - Amazon $189.99 Corsair CMPSU-850AX - Amazon $139.02 ASRock Z68 PRO3 - Newegg $196.64 Intel Core i5 2500K - Micro Center ALREADY HAVE COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus $142.65 2x...

Like stated in my previous post, Quick Sync using Virtu pretty much sold me on getting a Z68 board and I'm in the process of choosing one now. The ASRock Z68 Extreme4 costs quite a bit but I will keep it in mind. Sixthsense, what CPU are you using and are you overclocking?

Having Virtu to use Quick Sync sounds like something I want so I'm reconsidering the Z68 Micro ATX board, but I have an albeit outdated notion that Micro ATX boards are not good for overclocking the CPU. I don't know, maybe the board is fine, but its starting with a negative first impression for...

Thank you, yes the RV02B-EW would be preferred (well, windowless would be nice but the plain E version doesn't show up on Amazon). Just as a note, I'd say to notice the Vornado type of grill on the AP181 fans over noticing the sticker color. ;) I bet the older fans still have light blue stickers...

First of all, I was totally sold on the RV02B-1 case after looking at reviews, thanks for bringing it to my attention. :) Here is my draft #1 list of parts: $159.99 - 20 Rebate SILVERSTONE RV02B-W $189.99 Corsair CMPSU-850AX $129.99 + 8.25% tax GIGABYTE GA-Z68A-D3H-B3 $224.37 Intel Core i5 2500K...

Certainly, and my free Amazon Prime membership expires in December. :) I understand I'll probably need another PSU, but I'm still hopeful. As silentpcreview determined, the Nexus VALUE 430's fan noise at full load is still quieter than my former Corsair is at idle, and is the quietest fanned...

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming, Photoshop, some video editing (1080p), web browsing, virtual machines 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? $1200 after tax and shipping 3) Where do you live? Fremont, CA 4) What...

My only suggestion is to tell Steam to delete the HL2 game cache and redownload the game.

A video of the lag would be great, if you could. In such a case please make it a cam recording rather than screen capture for what should be obvious reasons.

A Q6600 is technically two E6600, a dual dual core on one CPU, so it is reasonable to give the Q6600 the 0.45A fan.

They will work, but my trust in them depends on what I plan on using them for... Middle man for copying files between computers? Yes. Booting an OS like linux off of it? No.

WHDI's own documentation states that 1080p60 (the highest WHDI can currently do) requires two antennas, but this one has five supposedly to help keep it reliable. But that's just it, they had to add three more antennas just to make it work right, supposing it even ends up being reliable in the...

You can read my edit.

Why would it matter if it had a cable? Once you install it, I really doubt you'll be spending lots of time staring at the back end of it for no reason at all... EDIT: I have no problem with a wireless video card BTW, this card is just stupid. I wouldn't call it a brilliant design considering it...

This card made me laugh at how stupid it is. You'd think when the engineers ended up with FIVE antennas that they would have thought "I don't think wireless technology is ready yet."

Do any of these software improve WMC's DVR functionality? For example adding another show recording option that does "New only", rather than just record series. I'd rather not have to manually delete/deselect all the reruns that get broadcasted. It would be great if WMC's DVR functionality could...

First thing is to make sure the ATA drives have their jumpers set to Master/Single, but it sounds to me like the two drives have a format that windows can't read.. What were the drives last used for? What does Disk Management say about the drive's partitions in the lower section of the window...

I put the card in other computers and they see it as IDE correctly and there is no RAID menu for the card at boot up, but when I put it back in the intended computer it still shows up as SATARAID complete with menu. I've completely cut power from the intended computer (including the battery on...

I have a Rosewill RC-209-EX which has the SiI 3114 chip and I have been unable to stop the card from acting in SATARAID mode. Solaris needs the IDE BIOS to be programmed to the card, but after I program it only the version number updates. Programming to the IDE BIOS did work the first time...

I think this applies. http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2075#comic

I can't seem to glabel the .nop drive [root@brisbane-1 /dev]# gnop create -S 4096 /dev/ada0 [root@brisbane-1 /dev]# glabel label wd20ears01 /dev/ada0.nop glabel: Can't store metadata on /dev/ada0.nop: Invalid argument. /dev/ada0.nop does exist btw. Any help is appreciated! :|

So what also chinese thing dictated that it couldn't be full 8's, 888.8GB?

You could also use a flash drive as the installation media rather than a DVD. With a Patriot DASH 8GB drive, the Expanding part of the installation took 5 minutes 22 seconds rather than 12 minutes 33 seconds using a DVD.
