    "Average time to sale" question and relative impact of Heatware

    I've had an HD6950 posted for sale for a week now at what I've been told is a great price, but it hasn't sold yet. Is it typical for a good deal on a decent-performing card to take more than a week to sell, or is it just because, despite being a member here for years, I have no Heatware...

    Tablet for playing movies in xvid, divx, mkv/avi containers, etc

    Not sure where to post this as there's no tablet forum. Here? General Hardware? Home theatre? Anyway, I have most of my DVDs/BluRays ripped and I want to watch them while I travel. Thing is, they're encoded for playing back here at home on 720p/1080p and HD/5.1 audio when possible. For travel...

    These Polks a good deal at $170 shipped?

    Currently, NewEgg has a 24-hour special on these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882290147 With $80 off email code, it's $170 and free 3-day shipping. Would those separates pair nicely with a decent receiver and a sub for 5.1? Are they poor on SQL?

    Steam - 60% off Splinter Cell Collector Pack - but does it have Ubisoft DRM?

    http://store.steampowered.com/sub/7849/ No mention of extra DRM in the right sidebar like Steam generally notes if the product contains it. If you buy this combo pack on Steam do they not have the extra UbiSoft DRM that some of the individual titles do? (Example...

    Looking for reviews/opinions from anyone with the Kingston 40GB SSD

    Do you like it? Do you find it big enough to serve as your OS/boot drive? Is it noticeably faster than a 7200rpm HDD? In Win7, can you somehow get it to trim despite it not having the actual Intel trim app?

    Can you RAID a WD 1TB Black and a WD 1TB Green together?

    Would there be any issues doing that, or would they just cooperate and work at the Green's performance level smoothly? Curious if anyone's tried this before.

    Which ForceWare to run for MSi P6N-SLI Premium (650 SLI) WinXP 32bit?

    Wondering what ForceWare I should run. I'm still running v6.86 and I see the latest on the site for 650 SLI on WinXP 32bit is v8.43. Wondering if others with 650 SLI are running 8.43 and if that's running well for people or if any reason to avoid it and go with some older version (but newer than...

    Reallocated Sector Count on WS6400AAKS - What's yours show?

    In SMART I see a value of 200 for it. In SpeedFan this shows a green OK symbol next to it but if I do In-dept Online Analysis, it rates it kinda low on the slider and only says Good, not Very Good. Everything else in SMART looks fine. Just curious if that's a normal value or not for the...

    Best price for Office Standard 2007?

    Standard is comprised of: Outlook, PowerPoint, Word, and Excel. $400 is ridiculous. $240 for an upgrade is ok but I'd rather have a full version just in case upgrade doesn't work or I want to install it fresh without first installing my old version of Office. There's got to be some deals...

    Any word on aftermarket air coolers for 8800GT that cover RAM/MOSFETs?

    Curious if there's any word from companies like Arctic Cooling or Zalman about a unified cooler that actually covers everything important so you don't have to mess around with trying to stick little dinky heatsinks to the RAM chips or MOSFETs.

    Anyone heard yet if their XFX 8800GT has shipped?

    Just curious. I was one of the first to order and provide payment info over the phone Thursday afternoon (their time). Was told it should ship Friday and should have a confirmation e-mail with a tracking number today. Since they're west coast there's still a good 4-5 hours, but just curious if...

    8800GT best aftermarket cooler: Quiet, adj fanspeed, and covers MOSFETs & RAM chips?

    Is there a decided winner yet for an aftermarket cooler for the GT that's less noisy, fan speed can be dynamically adjusted (i.e. connects to GPU's onboard fan header), and that covers the MOSFETs and the RAM chips?

    Can I push G.Skill F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ to 1066MHz? What settings?

    Curious what voltage and recommended timings to get my F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ to hit 1066 instead of their stock 800Mhz. Should be Micron D9 chips. Stock is 4-4-4-12 2T which is what I run it at with 2.0 volts. They are rated 2.0-2.1 volts. Would love to bring it up to 1066 to match my CPU.

    How can G-Skill F2-6400CL4D-2GBHK run 4-4-3-5?

    No other DDR2 RAM seems to come anywhere close to 4-4-3-5. Most are 4-4-4-12 or 4-4-4-15. How does it get that "5" in the final stat when everything else is 12 or 15 or higher? What's the catch? Here's the RAM I'm talking about: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231114

    Anyone have an ETA for the Thermalright Ultima-90?

    Curious when it'll hit vendors. Kinda looking forward to it since it's sort of a shrunken version of the Ultra 120 Extreme and should fit nicely in my Antec P150/SOLO case. :) http://www.thermalright.com/a_page/main_product_Ultima_90I.htm
