Hey there everyone,
I just ordered 4x new 3TB WD Reds from Newegg since they had it bundled together for $360 yesterday, which was finally within my target price range of $30/TB. Actually managed to get them a bit cheaper between the free $10 GC they sent me, and the $25 off 200 AmEx promo. I...
Hey guys,
I'm looking for some help or advice on an RMA to Gigabyte I'm currently going through. I heard some horror stories, but I had to cross my fingers and hope regardless, and it seems like it may actually be problematic after all.
I sent in a Gigabyte GTX670 a couple weeks ago...
Hey there, everyone.
I hope this is a good place for this, since it technically is home theater equipment, haha.
We still have a gigantic and very old CRT TV in the living room. I think it's about time we retired it, as the newest input the TV supports is the amazing component video.
I have...
Hey there guys,
I have a question for anyone who might know more about this stuff than I do.
As I'm looking to expand my data storage, I'm running once again into the limits of available SATA ports on my motherboard.
Currently, I have an ASUS Z77 V-Deluxe mobo. I have 2 external...
Hey guys,
Got a bunch of random stuff to sell, but these are the easiest to throw up, so I'll do this first, and list everything else separately later.
First up, some games.
I'm not interested in AC3, and my backlog is way too large to warrant holding on to it right now, so it's going up for...
For everyone who just missed out on the 15% code for NeweggBusiness, you can try the 10% code instead.
Slightly less hot, but savings are savings.
MEMKMYTEN
Does not stack with the 15% code, and also limited to one use per account, max of $100 savings.
I saved $130 on my new build between...
Hello everyone,
I am making the jump to an SSD, and taking the chance to upgrade from WinXP to Win7 at the same time.
Two firsts for me, which could be troubling but, I have a quick question about the AHCI drivers.
Should I leave it alone and use Win7's native AHCI drivers, or should I...
Hello everyone,
As the title suggests, I am currently thinking about getting my first-ever smartphone.
I am still using an old flip-phone and I have no problems with it, as currently I just make a couple calls and that's it. My friends claim once I start using one though, I will be hooked. I...
Hello,
I want to see if anyone has any idea what may be wrong with my hard drive.
Last night I noticed that one of my hard drives was missing from the "My Computer" explorer.
I think it actually may have been gone for close to a week, but since it was only a data storage drive, I never...
Hello everyone,
I don't know how my brother manages it, but he keeps screwing up his PC, and I always have to waste time dealing with it. Since he's contracted a couple viruses and trojans in the past, I've been stricter with his network access by blocking off some ports and associated...
Hello,
It's been a while since I bought/sold anything, so I'll let my old thread archive.
My Heatware is available here. (4-0-0)
eBay feedback is here. (7-0)
I have bought and sold to/from various forum members right here with no problems. I would like to expand my heat, but as I don't normally...
Hello,
I'm thinking about retasking my old PC for my parents to use. Mainly, they want to be able to chat with their relatives online via webcam. The problem is I have no idea what type of peripherals are good for this because I never bothered with it.
First, I need to get the old PC...
Hello everyone,
My main rig's system drive died (or is dying, rather) so I've got an RMA on the way.
Everything started feeling really slow recently, and explorer would randomly hang or stall for a few minutes, and it would take a long time to shut down. Long story short, I powered it off...
Hello,
I recall several people recommending (or at least buying from) techforless around here, but I'm not sure how safe it would be. Not 'safe' as in how secure they are (although this matters too) but rather, how safe it is to buy a refurb LCD from them.
I'm trying to find their LCD/pixel...
Hello,
I've been waiting for a while in hopes of getting a nice display soon, but it seems the trend is toward the wide-gamut monstrosity.
When I first saw the HP 2475 I thought it was going to be great - 24", affordable IPS and tons of input options. However, when it was released, we found...
Hello,
I'm trying to get a Dell laptop up and running for my parents. I've managed to slipstream SP2 into the Vista RTM disc via reverse integration. However, I'm kind of stuck now. I need to insert a language pack/MUI into it as well, since they don't know english. I've gotten the Windows...
Hello,
Have a few extra things to sell, so let's get started.
My Heatware is available here. eBay feedback is here.
I have bought and sold to various forum members right here with no problems. Unfortunately, most people didn't have a heatware and were unable to add their experiences to my...
Hello,
I hope this thread doesn't come across as a "when's the next card coming out" kind of thread, as that's not my intention.
I am excited by the current wave of super-high end/enthusiast cards boasting high numbers everywhere, but I hope I'm not the only one who's budget forces him to...
Hello,
My E8400 is slated to arrive today and as excited as I am about that, I still have some research to do lol. I'm planning to do a "minor" OC to 3.6GHz with it (9x400) but I'm concerned about a few things.
I'd like to enable the power saving features for obvious reasons, and I believe...
