Looking to breather some life into my 775 rig for a bit longer. If you have a Q6600 SLACR, paying $80 USD shipped to Canada. I am also interested in a Q9450 or higher instead if the price is right. Thanks

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has seen something similar: I get Windows 7 asking me to check the contents of my disk because they might be corrupt each time on a fresh boot. I usually keep my PC on and just stand-by but once a week or so I do a full reboot. The chkdsk never seems to find...

Hi, a question for those not using a media center type front end, what kind of (if any) software do you use to organize your media collections? As I do not use Vista MC or XP MCE, running through video files by hand to play with MPC is not very efficient. Would be good to be able to search...

Running the config that is in my sig on a 350watt honestly rated seasonic... Have a Kill-A-Watt meter hooked up and I am pulling 140watts idle and about 240 under full gaming load. I am loving seasonic... Anyone else running something decent on a "low" PSU ?

Pulled these from 2 different laptops. 2x256mb 200pin DDR2 667mhz from a macbook 1x512mb 200pin DDR2 533mhz from an acer (weird thing is that both of the ram have the same identifiers in cpuz. I think the 512mb stick is 667 too but the fsb on the laptop is limiting) All three chips are...

This is probably a longshot but I am looking for a 5.25" bay power supply booster. Like the 300watt FSP or even the 250watt Thermaltake units. Maybe I will get lucky and find someone with one. Looking to pay about 50 shipped.

This topic may have been done to death but I just want a few pros that have already gone this way to share their experience with me. I currently own a macbook with 2x512mb and was looking around at some very decent 2x1gb memory prices. Just want to know if it will be worth while for me to...

I was looking around and I read that the nb on the ds3 gets mighty hot when the board is pushed. Honestly, the cooler doesn't look that bad! I have a Zalman ZN-NBF47 brand new and I was wondering if anyone knew if this thing would be better than the stock nb cooler on the ds3. Thanks!

when you plug in, say headphones to front panel audio header does it turn off speakers? if so is there a way to wire onto the pins to make both work?

As the title says I am looking for some klipsch promedia 2.1 speakers with subwoofer. I have non-cc paypal and I live in Canada. If you have a set that is in perfect working order, small blemishes do not bother me, then please let me know! p.s. I have heatware under the same name, only 1...

So, did you know that the SMS is disabled under windows xp ... I thought something so primordial would be a hardware based protection system. Nope, so be careful when running xp or that extra bump might actually damage one of your pretty platters! This obviously only applies to XP booted using...

I have the comp in my signature running on a 350watt seasonic and i was thinking if i was reaching close to my max. I decided to buy a kill-a-watt off ebay. It arrived and I got to work measuring all sorts of info. Turns out under max stress load my computer consumes 198watts, and with cool n...

I was just wondering, I am switching from realtek 97 to an x-fi card (should arrive soon I hope). I am using altec lansing vs2321 speakers, I love them to death! price performance is awesome. I was just wondering if they are going to be the limiting factor for my new x-fi card and if so, by how...

Does going through the headphone out on your speakers, as opposed to directly from the sound card, when plugging in your cans degrade the sound quality any?

Would love to get a hold of this card. Anything lower than what I would expect to buy new will be seriously considered! pm me if you think you might be able to save me some money from buying new. Thanks

Quick question for an audiophile, which is better ? sennheiser 437 or 202. And considering the quality of sound these things put out which type of sound card would not be over powered but at the same time not bottlenecking me ? Thanks a lot in advance!

Kind of sucks how all the greatest deal sites online do not ship to Canada. Anyone who wants to contribute a great place to shop online for hardware purchase where shipping to Canada is offered ? Thanks

If anyone has this mouse i would love for you to shed some light on this: windows only detects it as an HID compliant device using drivers from 2001 and reinstalling installing double installing updating, nothing works. Not only this but sometimes the mouse won't register a click and...

Is cpu-z accurate at reading cpu voltage? when i keep it open i see a lot of jumping... I have it set to stock vcore but my newcastle is going from 1.58-1.61volts. Is cpu-z reading this right and is this normal? I am pretty sure my cpu is not overloaded and is stable(Seasonic rules). Thanks...

What is the general opinion on memory timings in an AMD system. I am running 2.5-3-3-6 at 223fsb and I know I could push this higher if I dropped the timings. Is it worth it? Will my gain be usable or will I lose just as much as I would gain? rig is in sig. Thanks in advance.
