    Old tech question. Half height card, DVI-D 1600p

    I have a very serviceable dell 3007 which I wish to use with a Dell box that uses half heights. The 200 series ATI card cannot do 1600p on its DVI-D port. I am looking for a reasonably priced recent card that would do the job. Thanks in Advance

    Slow intel 3500?

    I recently purchased an 800GB intel 3500 with low hours off of ebay. CrystalDiskMark was topping out at 410MB/s on reads and 460MB/s on writes. As a control a Samsung 840pro ran at 550MB/s and 510MB/s respectively on the same circuit. Perhaps it was a problem with this particular drive, so...

    AR Parrot with a Note 3... How do I connect with WIFI when internet is not involved.

    This is a touch frustrating. While the Note 3 recognizes the Parrot via WIFI, it bounces the connection because of the lack of internet. Is there a way without rooting to have the phone ignore the no internet from the Parrot drone? Note 3, Verizon Parrot 2.0 (version 2.2) TIA, david

    Moving from IOS to Android... Desktop music question

    I am planning on the purchase of a Galaxy Note 3, upgrading from an iPhone 4 (VZW). We are mainly a DiY Windows computer family with Apple tablets and phones, but I am finding the need for a larger phone screen. The thing is, I am used to working with the anathema, iTunes, and have not played...

    Would the double precision of the Titan make a signifant difference in transcoding?

    I am presently using Nero Recode and a 680GTX for transcoding. Just wondering if the Titan would make all that more of a difference, or would a second 680 on the cheapish.

    mSATA drive choice

    I am looking into aa mSATA drive as a boot for my 17r. It would seem the crucial m4 and the Plextor m5m are the standards here (mushkin atlas as well). I know what to expect from crucial (reliable, though a little slower on the writes), how does it compare to the Plextor? Should I be...

    I just bought a 4TB go flex drive.

    I cannot justify spending 200 for such a drive, except I did need another big drive, and this was available at what is today, a fairly reasonable price. A simple thin guitar plectrum gently and without a mark, popped open the case. It will be testing it tomorrow on a SATA3 port. It is indeed...

    What is currently that best thermal conductive compound?

    Having a megahelem (push pull fans) running warm with an o/c'ed 2600 (60c with 1.5v, 52c with 1.4v under full load according to the Asrock temp gauge), I purchased an H100, and the numbers are about the same (I will be testing push pull this evening). I noticed that the megahelem did not get...

    Weird happenings with my 4870's

    I have a pair of 4870 cards which seem to have suffered strange fates a few weeks apart. The first one began to artifact. Even without a load, it began to run hot. Cleaning the HSF and an application of fresh conductive paste only helped slightly. the other card was working fine until a...

    z68 boards brands, levels and overclocks.

    I finally caved and picked up a 2600k CPU. I have the DDR3, but need a board. Without the need for a half dozen slots ( a single 16x ,an available 1x and PCI would more than suffice). a budget model would probably do the trick. The question is, would the under 130 dollar Gigabyte or AsRock...

    2600K or i7 970

    I am looking into a build in the very near future. Assuredly, the hex core will be pricier, however if it gives a noticeable boost, it will be worth it since I will be living with this box for a couple of years. Hoping for a 5GHz on the 2600K vs. maybe 4GHz on the 970, which would be the...

    i5 and i7 turbo boost....

    OK... I sold my 13" macbook because it was a bit too small for for my eyes liking. With what I thought was decent research, I selected the 15" with the 2.4GHz i5. The machine works quite well, however I am getting a bit of buyer's remorse after learning the advantages of the i7 with regard...

    BFG ex-1200 or the PC&C 910

    I will probably be purchasing a new high end psu this afternoon. I would like for it to be the end all for my present and future multi-GPU, 10 HD main system. The additional power, lifetime warranty have me leaning toward the BFG..... but the quality and single rail stability of the 910 does...

    With Klipsch in absent from the computer speaker 5.1 market, I was wondering what were the present favorites. Should I flea-bay the Klipsch (a risk considering the flakiness of the subs and amps)? I am not interested in a receiver for the system ATM. TIA, david

    How would 8800GTS (g92) in SLI compare to the present offerings?

    I have a board which can do SLI and a 8800GTS 512. Is it worth the bother to nab another used GTS or toss it for a newer card, perhaps a 260 or 280.

    Can it be connected to a backplaned multidrive external enclosure? If so, can it use any form of RAID with said drives?

    If crossfire or SLI were not an issue. Which is preferable?

    750i/780i or the 38/48 series motherboards. I have the q6600 and 8gb of speedy DDR2 ram, but seeking a new motherboard. I heard the nvidia option has had video issues.

    CPU question Re: G33 based Shuttle

    My previous Shuttle build was a rather poor overclocker (approximately 5% on a P4 2.8GHz, which had no problem hitting 3.6 with a stock HSF on an ABit board). I have read of better o/c's with the newer generation. Would I be better off with a Q6600 and its 1066 FSB or the Q9450 and its 1333...
