I'm looking for a PSU to power my new build and I came across the Super Flower Leadex Gold 750W. I seems like a good value proposition at approx 900DKK here in Denmark as an alternative to Corsair og Seasonic PSUs in the 550-660W range. The reviews that I can find of the unit are generally...

Hi all, It's finally time to build me a new PC, below are my current plans. I'd appreciate reviews and comments on the list. Thanks. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc This i primarily a gaming build (Star Citizen alpha, GTAV and The Witcher 3...

Hi all, I have begun researching parts for a SFF build within the next few months. Now I hope to transition the system to the Kimera Industries Nova once it's available, but until then I plan to build in the Fractal Design Node 304. This obviously limits me to mini-ITX motherboards and...

I have been toying around with an idea for a mATX / mini-ITX case that would accept a closed loop cooler like the Corsair H105 and ATX PSU. I would go for a 20L case to qualify for the SFF tag, fortunately that doesn't seem to be an issue currently :) I haven't been able to find what i'm...

I've been eyeing the Fractal Design Node 804, does anyone have any experience with the case? Specifically: Is it "small" form factor or is it just not ATX compatible? I would like to be able to have the PC on the desk as opposed to on the floor. How is the quality of the case? What...

Just wondering. With all the current rumor talk of Apple focusing on "retina-like" displays for upcoming Mac, when do you all think we'll see this drip down to computer displays and made available at somewhat reasonable prices (sub $500)? For the record I'm dreaming of 23" or 24" displays @...

I have my system as in sig. I am considering upgrading with an i2500K, Noctua C-14 (and some more letters), 8 GB of Memory, 120GB Crucial M4 SSD and Windows 7 but keep Case, PSU, GPU and drives. Good idea or bad idea? I mainly use this for games and BF3 is straining my computer.

Anyone who have experience with working in large excel sheets and what kind of build can handle it well? Specifically I'm analysing around 250.000 lines of data and nunning around 1.000.000 sumif and countif formulas in a sheet and will need to Pivot the dataset in the same excel file in as...

Hey All, I'm pondering a new system come spring if I'm lucky and have started looking for white midi towers to checl´k my options seeing that I'd like to do a white box. So far I have found these options: Corsair Graphite SE (White) Fractal Design (White) Coolermaster CM 690 II...

Hi all, Basically I have the system in my signature (just upgraded to the GTX460) and I've been wondering, what is my best bet for an upgrade path? I have been considering a new CPU so that I would at least go from 2 cores to 4, if I go that way I'll probably get a cheap quad like the...

Hi all, I've decided I need to upgrade my GPU in time for Fallout New Vegas and that I want a GTX460. I'm looking at either the MSI N460GTX Cyclone 768MB or the Gigabyte GV N460OC-1GI for approx. $50 (300 DKKR) more. Rig in sig, what should I get? Will the 1GB card give me that much...

I've just been to the theater to see "UP", an excellent movie by all means, in 3D which brings me to this question: When will these 3D effects make it into games?!? :D

Anybody playng the new Blood Bowl game? Is there a [H]ard League online yet? I used to play a bit of Java-bowl a few years back and will certainly have to play this too. Anybody playing now? Waddaya think of it? :)

Just a short account on my experiences with the new Spore - Galactic Edition, call it a review of sorts. :) First off a little about the Box contents: The Galactic edition costing me DKKR 499 or around $95-100 (the regular Spore edition is DKKR 429 or approx. $85) comes in a nice box which...

I just recieved my new MacBook AIR (1.6GHz, 80GB HD) yesterday and I must say that so far it has been an excellent experience. Compared to my old 15" PowerBook it feels light as a feather and speed and responce is great for what I need it for, which is mainly internet and office applications...

I am in need of more games to look forward to in 2008. Currently I have three games on the list, only one of them is announced to the PC though which kinda blows so I'm hoping for a little input... :) Anyways the games that I look forward to: FarCry 2. Who can say no to 50 square...

Just to share my enjoyment I just ordered this for my new tv/gamingchair (girl not included) and thought that I would share my joy. I will be taking this overgrown beanbag (it's 140cm x 180cm) home thursday and I'm very excited. :)

I have been looking to get some dedicated speakers for my PC since I'll be moving in two weeks and my PC will no longer be hooked up to my stereo then. I will use these for gaming mostly, maybe some light moviewatching if I'm too lazy to go into my livingroom and that's about it. The...

I have considered lapping my CPU / HS with a Dremel using the polishing accessories. Now have anybody tried this? Is it adviceable? Am I just a sick puppy who needs to be put down? Or am I a pioneer pointing fellow lappers to the stars?

I have been thiking a bit about this. Currently I game on a 22" Samsung screen and while I love it I keep pondering if the lower resolution and higher responsetime is acceptable considering that you can use relatively more AF and AA than on the 22" with the same card. Thoughts?

Success! I realize that this is not groundbreaking for most people, still I'm quite happy and want to share! :D

As the title suggests I finally got into Vista at [email protected] on my E6600, here's a pic: Now this is while idling and my temps are kind of high. As soon as OCCT starts loading I crash and reboot, is this a voltage issue? I would think 1.5vCore in BIOS should be enough as I can get...

Well. I am getting curious. After I have succesfully gotten my Corsair XMS2-PC6400C4 sticks to run 333MHz with 3-3-3-9 timings on 2.1V I'm wondering what it will take to make them go stable at 366MHz 3-3-3-9 timings. I have already established that it is more than 2.1V, I'm currently running...

I just thought that I would write a bit about my first experience with overclocking an E6600 or anything for that matter. My system is the one in my sig and I can tell you now, it didn't blow up (YAY!)... :p So I decided that I wanted a new computer a while ago and started looking for the...

Basically I'm now in the process of OCing for the first time and I was wondering... I have locked the CPU Vcore at 1.3V but are there any other voltages that I should worry about setting at anything else but AUTO? PS: Right now I'm testing 3GHz at 1.3Vcore with OCCT while watching temps on TAT...

The title says it all more or less, I'd just like to know how long I should wait before starting to OC with regards to the thermal paste (AS5) curing? I'm currently idleling around 35/37 C and I'm at approx. 50 C under load...

Just to say it again, I really do love this card, it brings a whole new meaning of the word gaming into my world... BUT! it's noisy... :( Does anybody know anything about when we can expect some good QUIET aftermarket cooling to this card?

I'm going to be cutting into a P180 tomorrow or the day after with a Dremel, so I'd just like to know how fast said dremel should run (5-33.000RPM) when cutting steel? Thanks! :D

Simple question to answer for those of you who have already played this game: How destructable are the surroundings in this game? While I'm well aware that I won't be able to take down an entire building (boy would that be fun) I'd really like to know if I can destroy lamps, furniture...

I'm getting this ram and I was wondering if it would be feasable to run them at 333MHz and at 3-3-3-9 timings maybe with a small increase in voltage. If any of you have any experience in trying this (yes Redbeard, I'm looking at you too ;) ) then please tell me how you did this. If it can be...

Another rate my build tread yes :rolleyes: Anyway: Asus Commando, Intel P965, LGA775 Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/640M, PCI-E 2 Seagate 7200.10 320GB, 16MB, SATAII (not RAID) Antec Performance One P180, Midi, Black Scythe Ninja Plus Logitech G5, Laser Mouse Corsair...

Now I must admit that I didn't expect the ABIT 680i board to top the Striker Extreme in price, is this just the case here in Denmark or is it the same around the world?

Basically I'm lost here as I see that there will be both 32 and 64 bit versions of all Vista releases. What are the pros and cons of each? What should one choose provided they, like me, just want to game, watch movies, do a bit office applications and maybe a little photoshop? Thanks for any...

Hi, first time poster here (Have been lurking for some time though) :D I a month or so I'm going to build myself a new PC, atleast if the semesters finals go as planned. Anyway I'm pretty much set on what hardware I want to stuff into the box except for the motherboard. I'm currently...
