    Any Huawei Mate 9 Owners here?

    Just bought the Unlocked Mate 9 @ Best Buy for pre Black Friday price of $399. My HTC m9 was starting to act buggy, and I am very happy so far. Bright Screen, Dual SIM (big deal for me), very fast, and BIG battery (also big deal for me). Only complaint so far is the lack of Supercharger...

    Newegg RMA Technicians Are Breaking My Returns

    I originally posted in January 2013, re a New Egg declined RMA for a defective mother board, and since then have built three more systems for friends, and not a single item purchased from New Egg, nor will I ever. Also as a reminder, assuming you pay for your M/B with a Credit Card or PayPal...

    Newegg RMA Technicians Are Breaking My Returns

    I RMA'd an ASRock z77 Extreme 4 because the board would boot with only one stick of RAM, but not two (Code 55). Tried two different 2x8 kits (Corsair and Gskill ). Same problem. New Egg denied RMA citing CPU bent pins. I received board back and could see no such damage. Tried RMA'ing to...

    New i7 Build(s), Please look over it for me.

    Regarding a case, consider this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119197 Good reviews, price, cooling and lots of room (particularly width), plus goes on sale periodically at Newegg. Good luck with your build.

    Best 775 Heatstink under $30

    Ambient temps do make difference, but readings taken w/i 12 hours and there has been nominal change in outside and room temps. I'm going to reseat tomorrow and then give it a few days, before I make final judgment. This particular CPU has been running warmer than I expected, which may have...

    Best 775 Heatstink under $30

    Just replaced Zalman 9500AT with Xigmatek S-1283/retention bracket. Been running about 4 hours now and have noticed no improvement over Zalman. Temps both @ idle and Prime load identical. Using AC paste, so may be some break-in, but so far, I'm not impressed, and the fan dampers were a PITB...

    How to Add HDD-RAID to existing system

    GLSauron-My 80 is a 7200, so does your comment still apply? Since my goal is simply to increase my boot drive capacity, I have considered skipping RAID and getting a 160MB 7200. Thoughts? Will the 80/80RO be faster than a single 180? Thanks

    How to Add HDD-RAID to existing system

    First, thanks for all the quick responses. I like the idea of starting fresh, so will do the reinstall rather than mirroring. Fortunately, all my files, and data are on the other drives, and my 80 has only programs (Vista, Office, Kaspersky, etc.) along with some of my benchmarks (Prime...

    How to Add HDD-RAID to existing system

    I would like to add identical 80GB SATA HDD to my Vista system, and RAID 0 the two 80's. Suggestions on best way to do this appreciated. I have two SATA MOBO connectors open. Thanks

    New Overclock

    Thanks for responding-I may in fact do that, as my interest in OC'ing is one of want rather than need.

    New Overclock

    Thanks for taking the time to respond- FYI-According to CPUZ-SPD the 4-4-4-12 frequency is 266Mhz, and the 5-5-5-15 is 400Mhz, To your next point, I take it to mean-leave my external speed at 400Mhz, reduce my DRAM speed to 800 (1:1), and then set my timings to 4-4-4-12? If I have that...

    Outlook 2007

    I have that view now. Any idea which of your settings control this feature? Did you have to do anything for yours to work this way, or was it from installation? Did you install 2007 over earlier version, or was it clean install? Thanks

    Outlook 2007

    I'll try to explain: My "Contacts", vertical columns left to right are "Contacts"/Contacts/ and "To Do". My "Mail" vertical columns L to R are "Mail"/"In Box"/ and "To Do". My "Calendar" vertical columns L to R are "Calendar" and "Day/Week/Month" All the columns are under the horizontal...

    Outlook 2007

    Anyone know how to format Mail, Contacts, and Calendar, so that changing the vertical columns in one doesn't automatically make the same change in the other two? Thanks
