I'm out of touch with recent hardware so I tried to help as much as I could. I'm sure there are better cost/benefit options out there so I'm hoping you guys can help tweak the build. It will be used for gaming at 4k and he said he can spend up to 3k (Dad would prefer less, lol)...
My son wants to make gaming related videos for Youtube. He started with Windows Movie Maker and using clips from the web. It didn't have all the features he wanted, so I did some reading and got him the free Lightworks version. It might be a little too advanced, but he's only just started with...
We recently switched plans, and so have no need for it any longer. It's good for Pay As You Go, or the monthly plan. I can mail the card, or scratch off the code and PM it. Asking $80 obo.
My old phone just died. so looking for something ASAP. Decent condition with good battery life is preferred. LMK what you have. I'm on AT&T, but I'm not sure if it matters.
I bought two of these, thinking I'd have one on the south-side on my house and one on the north. I ended up going with a single router solution, so I don't need these. I have at least one box, both power supplies and Ethernet cables and can maybe find the other box. It is this one here...
I'm not sure if there are any still floating around, but I'd like to buy one if there are. I was thinking $30 is fair, based on what I've seen previously, but LMK what you have.
I just upgraded to a 970, so I'm getting rid of 'ol faithful. It's basically a 7970 with less memory, and comes with the original box and all accessories. It was never overclocked, and kept in a clean, smoke-free house.
SOLD
This was sold at Target stores today, and went fast. I had to work all day, so I ordered online for store pickup, but they never fulfilled the order ;( I just want one bottle as a Christmas present for my son, to go with the game and the hardcover vault dweller guide I bought him.
Here's...
I looked through the rules, but I didn't see it mentioned. I have a World of Tanks account that I haven't played in over a year, and I'd like to try and sell it if possible.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming, game development
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$300 or so
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
McHenry, IL
4) What...
Ive been pretty happy with my system for the most part (rig in sig). Its lasted many years, and Im still able to manage High/Ultra in most new games, even with my recent monitor upgrade to 1440P (surprising to me). Ive been thinking about a new CPU/mobo for a while, and I know that my next...
I just got mine from the recent 30% off sale, and it's massive! I can't seem to get it to display 2560 x 1440 via the DVI-D cable though. I have updated to the latest 14.12 drivers, and my 7870XT should be able to do up to 2560 x 1600, according to the Sapphire site. It will do 1440 in safe...
After weeks of prodding, my 10-year-old son has finally decided something he wants for Christmas. I was doing some reading on the Disney site last night, but I'm still kind of confused. I see that they have the free download for PC available, and claim a bunch of free content :rolleyes:
I...
I was offered a free 1 month Gold trial when I created my Live account a couple of weeks ago. I wasn't interested at the time, and I assumed that I would be able to take advantage of it later. Now my son is wanting to try Halo 4 online, but I don't see a way to start the trial.
The last console I bought was an N64, but I just got a 360 finally so my son can do the Just Dance games. I've always wanted to play Red Dead Redemption, so that's first on my list. I'm wondering what other games I've missed over the years that I should catch up on. Not necessarily games that...
My Mom wants me to get an Ipad so that we can video chat (she is in another country), but I've usually resisted Apple products. I generally find that you get more for your money going elsewhere, but I have a few questions before I make my decision:
1. I'm guessing we can't do FaceTime if I...
I recently upgraded from a 460 GTX to the 7870 XT, and I've been very happy with it so far. I still get terrible stutter in World of Tanks, but I'm convinced that is an issue with their game or some other conflict (ongoing issue). Tomb Raider ran great on Ultimate settings, except when I...
I just installed it and the PC starts up fine, but the card doesn't seem to be recognized. I downloaded the 13.1 Catalyst drivers and it installed really fast, but nothing happened after that. There is nothing in the ATI folder either for some reason. I tried the AMD auto-detect driver...
I will be upgrading my existing HTPC graphics card (HDMI) to one with mini-HDMI. It seems I have two options: One to get an adapter and use my existing cable, or to get a new complete cable. I think the cable is the better option because I've seen some reports of issues with adapters, but I...
Don't laugh, but my kid has actually been gaming on it for a year or so. I was thinking $25-$35 could net a nice upgrade on the cheap from FS/FT. I seem to remember the 8800GT were good cards, but I think they were power hogs too maybe? I have an Earthwatts 430W (bronze) in there now, so it...
WoT left, $25 firm. Heatware required, and I prefer selling to established forum members. The code gives you 7500 Gold and 1 month premium.
Paypal only please.

Hawken code left, price dropped to $18. I will email the info as soon as payment is made. If you don't know, this is what the code gives you:
Hawken - 7200 Meteor Credits
Paypal non-CC only.
http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=60056
These were given away with Nvidia cards (along with PS2 and Hawken codes), and I'm interested in buying just the WoT one. I've seen the $50 code go recently for $25-$30, so I'd be prepared to offer about the same.
I'm waiting for World of Tanks tech support to get back to me, and I can't think of a better place to ask for help than here. I have included the report, and the response I got from them. I did forward all the ports they mentioned, and I checked the firewall, with the same results.
I should...
A few years back I turned my old gaming rig into a makeshift HTPC, using some spare parts. It's been fine at the job, and even allows some light gaming for my son. He's playing World of Tanks with me now though, and the choppiness makes it pretty hard to play at times.
Obviously the GPU isn't...

I'm looking for a significant upgrade to my 460, that will be ok with my Q9550 and PSU (sig). I'm a bit wary of Sapphire, but that looks like pretty good bang for the buck from what I can tell. I'll be gaming on a 21.5" LCD at...
I'm really overdue for a total system upgrade on my gaming PC, but we don't really have the spare cash for that. What's a nice upgrade for the 460 that:
1. Won't bottleneck too bad on the Q9550
2. Can be run safely on my PSU (in sig)?
Edit: Oh yeah, maybe around $200?
I need one for VOIP, but I would also use it for gaming, vent etc. I'm thinking something between the Logitech H530 and the G35, but not limited to that brand. I'm finding some mixed reviews, and I haven't seen any that stand out yet. Any suggestions?
My rig is kind of dated (see sig), but at least there is a quad in there. About how good of a graphics card can I get before it starts to bottleneck, and what would you recommend?
While I'm at it, would upgrading to 8GB DDR2 give me much of a performance boost in games?
I just found a new and sealed, standard edition that I forgot I still had. I'm asking $30 shipped for it. If you just want me to open it and email the code, it's $25.

Ive been out of the loop for a while, so Im posting this on behalf of two friends. I asked them to answer the questions as best as they could. From what I gather, they should be almost identical, except perhaps a slightly larger monitor for one.
1) What will you be doing with this PC...
I have a new and sealed, standard edition that I'm asking $32 shipped for. If you just want me to open it and email the code, it's $28.

I have a 3-month old Asus 460GTX (running stock) that I noticed a few colored dots on the LotRO character screen 3 weeks ago. This was the first time Id used the PC that day, but it had been left on for maybe a couple of weeks. The screen then went black a few seconds later, forcing a reboot...
I bought this at Xmas time, because I thought I’d be picking the game back up. That hasn’t happened yet, and I don’t think it will anytime soon.
It’s new and sealed, so I was thinking $32 is a fair price since they are still $40. I’d need about $5 to ship it, but...
I just bought a new GTX 460, so I'm selling my old card and the Hawx 2 coupon that came with it.
The 4870 has been registered, and has the transferrable warranty ready to go. I have the original box and all accessories, and would like to get $90 shipped for it. SOLD
Hawx 2 is $20, and I...
