    Quick Q about Sony 32" EX400 Pwr Cord

    The Sony manual on pg. 8 states that: "In the case of 32 and 40 inch models, the AC power cord is attached to the TV." http://www.docs.sony.com/release/KDL32EX400.pdf I take this to mean that the TV and power cord are inseparable, and thus any EX400 unit will ship with the cord even...

It does not have to be the latest gen that is selling on Newegg now (i.e. nforce 750i or Q45). I'm perfectly willing and even inclined to buy used older gen hardware off...

    8-pin PCI-E (F) to 6-pin PCI-E (M) Power Adapter for GPU

    I have a PSU with only one 6-pin PCI-E power cable and a GPU that requires two. My PSU has an 8-pin PCI-E power cable which I'm not using for anything. I want to convert that to a 6-pin connector to plug it into the second slot of my GPU. Problem is, I've only seen the reverse: 8-pin male to...

    Will GTX 260 block adjacent SATA ports?

    I have an evga 650i ultra mobo and a GTX 260. I haven't tried it yet but from the looks of it, there is no way to get this card in without blocking the SATA ports on my mobo. http://www.nvnews.net/reviews/evga_nforce_650i_ultra/images/board02.jpg I doubt that even right-angle connectors...

    Velociraptor WD3000HLFS - Not too impressed

    So I just got this today and it replaced an old WD2500KS as my system drive. Naturally, I was expecting a performance boost, and while there is a difference, it's not as much as I was hoping for. Yea, my system is faster but it still has periods of noticeable slowdown. Maybe it will grow on...
