This has probably been asked before. But why does the edit button keep disappearing?, sometimes i'll see it and use it, but a lot of the time i don't see it. So are we going to have the Edit feature or not? Thanks.:)

Thinking about getting a Sapphire HD 4890 and i would like to know how hot does it get when gaming and how loud, i hear the 4890's are pretty loud and my CPU fan is already loud when gaming so i don't really want a whole lot of noise going on. Going to be doing tons of gaming and i don't want...

I plan to upgrade my Core 2 Duo E4400 CPU to something better( Or should i keep it?). I only game and do on the Internet on my PC. Alot of people say not to go Quad when for gaming, but wouldn't it be more future proof?. Plus on Newegg the E6850 is 199.99(its also out of stock) and the Q6600 is...

Heres the Link:http://www.nordichardware.com/news,8050.html Its also on Techpowerup.com This will most likely cost an arm and a leg. I think i will just wait till they come out so the prices for the Core 2 CPU's come down and i can get a really high end Core 2 chip.:)

I have a Core 2 Duo E4400 running at stock(and no i dont OC) and i mostly just game and go on the internet. I also plan to get a GTX 260 or somthing around there(maybe a 9800 GX2) and i am not to sure the my E4400 can handle those cards. But i really dont care about bottlenecks(as long as my...

On Newegg.com there is the OEM Q6600(comes without heat sink fan and sticker) and then theres the regular boxed version with a heatsink fan and sticker. I already have a arctic cooler freezer 7 pro(has lots of dust on it) on the motherboard i am going to upgrade with the Q6600, so all i would...

Which would be a better choice for an upgrade? I am also upgrading my proc to a Q6600 on my 680i board, but as for video card i am stuck with these two to pick from. I already have the 179.19 drivers so if i pick the GX2 i already have installed drivers for it. But i hear of micro stuttering...

Anyone know of such PSU? I am going to upgrade to a Q6600 and a 9800 GX2 sometime later on. But i doubt my current OCZ Stealthxstream 600W can handle it all. Plus it doesn't have a eight pin connecter. But i need it to be reliable and pretty cheap but still have good wattage.

Do i have to spread it around or what? or do i just put a small dot in the center? Thinking about using Arctic Silver 5:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835100007

I may upgrade to a Core 2 Quad Q6600 from my Core 2 Duo E4400 on my 680i SLI SE board. But do i need to reinstall my OS?. Also is it ok if i put the mobo on a box?(like one of my console boxes like PS3's). Even tho the back of the mobo may get messed up if i just place it on a box right?

This is the first time i have had my PC freeze. I decided to get the latest Nvidia drivers(175.19) and when downloading them i forgot to uninstall my old one first. So after i got done downloading and installing the new drivers, i went into control panel and went to where it said Nvidia drivers...

I dont plan on OCing, and the rest of the parts are the same besides the motherboard. I have price out both and the Intel build it $637 and the AMD build is $687. I have a 3870 in both. Every ones says Intel is better but the Phenom i was thinking about getting is a 2.2Ghz Quad core Phenom. The...

I saw on newegg on the M3A-32 MVP mobo and it the specs it says this :Memory Standard DDR2 1066/800 * DDR2 1066 is supported by AM2+ CPU only So do i need to get 1066mhz RAM?

I dont know much about AMD's best Phenom motherboards. Could someone please price out a good phenom system. I already have a case, monitor and KB/Mouse, but the rest is a mystery. I dont have plans to OC. I may go Crossfire in the future tho. And i need a DDR2 mobo that doesn't need a BIOS...

I am going to change the insides of my computer to a more high end system. I still need a motherboard, can someone please recommend me a good motherboard that is compatible with 45nm CPU's out of the box(like the E8400) and DDR2 memory. Heres the system so far: Intel Core 2 Duo...

I have my PS3 running in 480i res on a ''15 or so Memorex TV. Anyone else got a simular setup going? Hopefully i can get a better TV soon with at least 720p res. Sometimes black lines go up and down the screen which is pretty annoying while gaming. Any one as less fortunate as me?

Basically, How would you know a OS is corrupt or not?

I have a Evga 680i SLI SE and i have a stock C2D E4400 CPU in it and was thinking about upgrading to a Q6600 CPU. But can someone give it to me in steps for upgrading the CPU. Like do i need to reinstall or take the CMOS battery out? and for how long?

Thinking about upgrading from my 8600 GTS, and i would like to know how is the performance with it in games. I am also upgrading my CPU from a C2D E4400 to a C2D E6850. I am not getting a Quad since all i do is game and go on the internet, i don't benchmark or OC or photoshop. BTW do i need to...

So i walked into target to get GTA IV today and i find that there are about 25 or so copies left on shelf so i bought one. If anyone lives in VA,(Alexandria) and want GTA, just go to the landmark Target at bailey crossroads and there are tons of PS3 and 360 copies there. BTW GTA IV is very good...

I was just wondering if i can use the out-of-the-box BIOS of my 680i SE SLI motherboard to upgrade to Windows Vista? If so, then how would i upgrade to it? I reformat my HDD(or does the Vista CD do it?) and then i put the Vista CD in when its in BIOS or booted into Windows?

need some ideas for a good case. And i came to these, but i would like to see the amount of space in both of them. So if you have either please post it. Looks like the 690 can barely hold a GTX. So it might not fit any future cards.

Did anyone order a E8400 yet? Or are you waiting for the other ones to come out? I can't get Wolfdales because my motherboard(Evga 680i sli se) doesn't support 45nm CPU's.:(
