    Creative Sound Blaster Z Initial Impression

    I had this happen also with a regular Z. I updated my motherboard bios and moved it to a different slot in the motherboard and that stopped the disappearing/BSODs. Just FYI if anyone else runs into this issue.

    Creative Sound Blaster Z Initial Impression

    I have a quick question about the HD/Front panel header on the card. If I plug that into the card and then plug my headphones into my case front panel, does that still take advantage of the headphone amp? Or do you have to plug directly into the back of the card (or ACM but I just got the...

    Klipsch Promedia 5.1's - Amp repair

    Putting another good word in for Henry. Got my amp back last week and it sounds great. He stayed in contact the whole time, gave me a full list of everything he suggested replacing and all for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend Henry if you're looking to get your amp repaired.

    Creative Sound Blaster Z Initial Impression

    There's a review on Amazon where the reviewer says the audio quality is significantly degraded when using headphones via the ACM vs. plugging them in directly into the card. Perhaps from that.

    Is the Trophy still available, any scratches on the screen, and does it come with a charger?

    Bad Company 2

    Do you guys recommend running a dedicated Physx card for this game? Would be a 460 1GB and an 8800GT 512MB.

    Intel SSD G2: 80 or 160GB?

    Wow that is shocking. I've ordered from them many times without any issues. Never even bothered to look at their reseller ratings. They're quite good on Amazon. I just got a G2 80GB from them on Monday. All seems fine so far.

    Microsoft Habu and REAL Support

    Wanted to update everybody, looks like they're no longer shipping replacement Habu's :( They did, however, offer me a Sidewinder X5 instead. They certainly didn't have to do that, but I'd rather have a Habu :(

    Microsoft Habu and REAL Support

    Thanks, just put a support ticket in. My wire seems to be fine but my right mouse button is a mess. Sometimes it sticks and clicks repeatedly, other times it doesn't register a click at all.

    BenQ V2400W User Reviews @ [H]Forum

    Pick me because I have a P-MVA and S-IPS panel to compare it against. Let's see how this TN panel really fairs against the competition :D

    Rumor Has It

    Sorry to hear that if it is true, I also had good experiences with ClubIT. Ever since Newegg opened a warehouse in NJ, I've bought less and less from them because of the taxes killing most of the deals, mainly from ClubIT and ZZF.

    WD VelociRaptor

    I'll wait for the price to drop. Too expensive (but what isn't at release).

    Creative versus Daniel_K

    I was already done with Creative's crap. This was just icing on the cake. Can't wait to pickup one of the new ASUS cards.

    Problem with newly aquired 8800 GT card .. help?!?

    Don't cry son, we'll fix it. Gotta be a bios or driver setting somewhere. Have you flashed the IP35 to the latest bios? Rotated all the PCIx power plugs from your PSU? Worst comes to worst, do a fresh format / reinstall and see what happens there.

    65nm BFGTech GeForce 8800 GTS OC 512MB @ [H]

    GT still looks like the better buy. Glad I didn't wait for the revamped GTS.

    ASUS PN532-E SLI - BSODs, Graphic Driver resetting, windows2k.sys boot up errors ..

    I'm sure you mean the P5N32E-SLI but yeah, massive problems with that board. Check the reviews on Newegg. I RMA'd 3 of them and finally just gave up.

    Abit X38 Board Available!

    Well I picked up one of these, should be here next week. I just couldn't justify going with ASUS again, had so many problems with my last board from them (on my 3rd RMA). The IP35 is outstanding so I will give Abit a try again.

    8800GT's at Newegg

    It better not be just the GTS. The only reason I jumped on it yesterday was because Crysis was included. I see the Crysis CD in the picture (even though they always say actual product may vary, yada yada) so I hope that's what I get. The 'box' picture shows Crysis free inside with 8800gt so...

    p5n32-e problem

    It's more than likely DOA. This board has major issues, read all the reviews on newegg... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131073 I went through 3 myself, finally gave up.

    [system build critique] and a question about q6600s

    I know what you mean. Sorry, not trying to thread crap. I'd feel the same way, you always feel excited when you select a new system and ask for feedback and then everybody has a problem with some part of it :( Like I said, maybe you will be lucky. It wouldn't have 4 out of 5 eggs if it...

    [system build critique] and a question about q6600s

    I think you did fine with exception to the motherboard. I've now had 3 of that ASUS board and ALL of them were either DOA or the dead within a few months. Very disappointed with it. If you check out the review on newegg, you'll see what I mean. Some people made out very well with it but a...

    eVGA 8800GT Superclocked overclocking to SSC level?

    Well I don't know about the 8800gt, but that Q6600 will do 3Ghz+ on air with no voltage tweaks so get on that son.

    8800GT Overclock Database?

    Some NICE overclocks so far.... For those of you that have the cards and are OC'ing, can you also post what version you have (e.g. Non-OC, SC, SSC, etc....)?

    eVGA Confirms the "Revamped" GTS 640 was released today

    Still no Quality Professional Reviews of the 24" LG L246WP / L245WP

    Here's a little program I used that REALLY helped with the gamma. This wasn't the only setting I tweaked, but I did not see ANY dark details before using this and now I'm seeing them much better. http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1A.html#QuickGamma That whole page has lots of...

    LG L246W

    Did you guys have a lot of trouble calibrating this? I've read the whole thread and seen some tid bits here and there but I'm really struggling with it. I've spent the past 2 days fooling around with it and I still don't feel it looks right. I guess I'm kinda underwhelmed but maybe I expected...

    LG L246W

    Just picked one up, so far so good. Got BB to PM it to Compusa and I had about $460 worth of giftcards to BB so I got it for $69 (after tax) out the door, can't beat that :D Anyway, about calibration.... would you guys recommend the Nvidia CP for calibration or the Adobe calibration tool...
