Hi Guys, Ok, so my mother-in-law's 6 year old Dell PC is fried due to a nice brownout during a thunderstorm. My father in law said that he would rather have me put together something new than try to fix the old dell PC. (This will be my ~7-8th build to date) He wants something that will...

So Razer decided to change the file type the stores the nostromo keyboard profiles and macros... Basically if you upgrade from drivers 1.01 to 2.01 you need to reconfigure your entire setup. Makes me want to punch the smart ass that thought of that... :mad:

Hi Guys, I am having issues with my Corsair CX430. When my HTPC is turned off the PSU starts making a weird high pitch squealing noise. I am starting to trouble shoot the issue. I need to rule out the extension cable from the back of the case to the PSU. Any other thoughts on what I...

Hi Guys, My new MSI mobo and i7 2600k are coming in today. I also have a Vertex 3 SSD ready to go. I keep reading about how it is important to switch my BIOS to AHCI mode. Can anyone walk me through where in the MSI bios I would do that? Sorry for the silly question. I just want to make...

Hi Guys, From a standpoint of gaming (@1920x1200) the performance difference between a i5 and i7 is not worth extra $$$s. I am better off saving my $100 bucks and maybe getting another SSD. Is that right? I am planning to get a P67 Asus Pro board for the setup. I will probably use the...

Hi All, Can someone recommend me a board for an i7 2600k and CFx setup? I know I will need new ram with the change but I am planning to re-use the rest of the components. I was looking at the ASUS P67 Pro but I am not sure how that plays with the CFx cards. Also, I am probably going to mess...

Are newegg coupons tied to customer accounts? Got an email with a 20% off coupon for select Lian Li cases from them. I don't want to share if it wont work for everyone so I figured I would ask.

So I am a satisfied owner of an HX850. I recently purchased a dual GPU solution, however, it seems that I misplaced my extra PCIe cables during my last move. 4/11 - Emailed Corsair tech support explaining my situation and asking where I can purchase additional cables. 4/13 - Tech...

Anyone else notice that they became rude in the last year or so? Maybe I am reading this wrong however the last couple of interactions I had with them were awful. Not sure what is going on over there but the level of service I used to get two or three years ago is gone. Seems that their...

So what are my options to upgrade performance a bit? Seems that the 6950 will not be a huge bump. Adding another 5870 vapor-X seems to be expensive, even if I can find one. Would adding another flavor of the 5870 for CF be worth it? Or should I just wait for the next round of cards? Rig: i5...

So recently I purchased a BenQ G2400W. My excitement of getting a new monitor was ruined by the realization that I have one stuck pixel in the middle section of the monitor. I am wondering what are some of the experiences by other people. I also thought it might give us some insight how...

So I finally got some xmas and bday GCs together and I am looking into getting a new 24 inch monitor. I will use it primarily for playing games (mostly COD 4, EVE Online, and WoW). I currently have a Viewsonic VG2230wm and I am extremely happy with it. I can only buy from Newegg due to my...
