Since that last update this has been happening. It sounds like the optical drive is checking for a disc or something, but I don't have one in, and the sound is totally new aswell.
It sounds like a single "chug". I'm pretty sure it's not the hard drive.
I bought the console on march 11 and...

I bought it about a month or two ago, I started playing tombraider on my ps3 and at certain frequencies the subwoofer is making a buzzing noise. It's not constant only at...
The way my tv is mounted it will be very hard to plug in an optical cable so I am curious if I can plug in a soundbar through hdmi (my tv has an ARC port) and use it with my ps3? I don't know much about this subject so this may be completely wrong.
Could I have my ps3 in hdmi 1 and the...
I've been trying to sell my PC for over a month now through craigslist... It's been a nightmare to say the least. I have listed this system for $1000 and gotten nothing but offers of $500-600 and comments that it's a piece of shit while other systems are $500 that sport rat-nest cables and stock...
I'm asking $1200

Any advice how I can sell a 55" LED tv? I think shipping it is out of the question.. Craigslist has worked for my pc parts but they have been smaller items like a case. I am not comfortable having someone come into my house either, not really sure what to do?
I also drive a small car, I don't...

I have seen people mention Windows 8 OEM and Retail versions. I do not understand how licensing works for them. I need a version which I can reinstall after buying a new ssd or a new motherboard or just after wiping my installation. Which version has transferable licenses?
Also, is Pro worth...
I am looking for a very minimal temperature monitor, I just want to see what my cpu temps are when playing a game.
"coretemp" and that looked pretty good, but a lot of people are complaining that it has malware or some such shit. The site looks a little shady, there is a hidden download button...
How should the fans be set up for this case with an H80i?
I was thinking something like this:
Two intake in the front, two exhaust on the top, two intake on the side panel, h80i in exhaust.
Also, since I don't have any dust filters for the side intakes, could they be exhaust?
I hate dust. So I saw this really awesome looking product:

Or would this be a better choice?

I have been trying to wear a pair of Razer Electras for a while now, and no matter what I do they hurt my ears something awful. The bass is pretty good, which is why I keep trying to wear them. After 30+ minutes it feels like my left ear is being crushed, these usually leave it very tender and...
My brother needs a new PC, he is going to be playing tons of Dota 2, World of Warcraft, Minecraft, dungeon defenders, etc.....
He would prefer if it's around $500. Don't need to worry about peripherals, just a PC. Also, he would rather buy from amazon if possible.
I played the crap out of BF3 a while ago, col. 100, everything unlocked, etc.... It seems like there is nothing else to play though. I am playing Hawken a little bit and crysis 3 was disappointing. I have only played 1 COD game (MW3 on 360 for an hour) and it was "OK", maybe it was because I was...
I used wifi on my super slim ps3 for a few weeks, then was able to run an Ethernet cable to the back instead. I went through the connection set up again and changed it from WiFi to Ethernet cable, but from what I can tell the activity light is not working on the port. I have a nagging feeling...
I have a few mouse pads lying around, and thought, would it do any good to put one under my PS3 to reduce the vibration it receives from subs and whatnot?
Random question here:
I was looking at the PS4 specs and noticed that it will have 8GB of DDR5 memory. I know this memory is used on current GPU's, but why is our system memory only DDR3?
When will it be in my best interest to upgrade to a newer chip? Is Ivy bridge really that much faster? Or should I wait for the next generation of chips?
I am looking for a new 60" TV, preferably from amazon. I will be playing games and watching movies on it so I am leaning towards an LED. I am willing to spend around $1000 give or take a few hundred for quality.
I am looking at something like this...
First, I will ask my question: Has or will Bethesda fix this issue?
If you aren't familiar with this issue I will try to explain it, or at least how I have interpreted it after reading many forum posts on it.

Anybody know anything about these? Monoprice has really great deals and products, but I cannot find anything about this specific headphone.

Right now I am using a 27" asus lcd @ 60hz, I bought it a little more than 2 years ago. I have been looking at different korean displays. Honestly, I don't know much about these at all. I want something that would be an upgrade so 2560x1400 seems pretty reasonable at around ~$300.

Just bought an Asus 670, it's in the mail right now. What kind of fan settings are you guys running with similar cards? I haven't used an Nvidia card in ages so I'll assume the control panel is similar to AMD/ATI cards where you can just set the fan speed.
With my current 6970, I have to run...
Got it ~2 years ago. Is it even worth upgrading at this point? Or should I wait for the next generation? If not, I will most likely upgrade my GPU instead.
I have kind of an odd question regarding steam:
Are steam profile pictures/avatars that you see in games such as DoTA2 and CS:GO actually saved to your hdd? I was under the impression they were cached in one of the HTMLCACHE folders in the steam directory.
The reason I ask this is because...
Not sure exactly how to word this, I have been using an HDMI to DVI cable, the HDMI for my monitor and DVI for my GPU. I recently changed the cable to a plain HDMI cable because I got annoyed with having to unscrew the DVI cable. I have noticed that it takes longer to get picture to my monitor...
Later this year I want to get an Nvidia card, I have been using AMD/ATI cards for a long time. What will be a good step up from an XFX 6970 2gb in a few months?
I am interested in trading Dota 2 Invites for other steam games, Will take any of these games for 1 invite:

Negotiation is possible, pm me.
I would like to get $900 from this with the buyer paying for shipping costs.
Computer is gently used and is in absolutely pristine condition.
I would prefer if you lived locally (Brevard County, FL) so we can avoid shipping. If not, we can work something out.
