I have a 22" 1680x1050 Acer monitor that I got in 2005 if I recall correctly. Lately when I go to start it up it keeps resetting itself again and again for a minute or two but then eventually it will start working and it seems to be solid. But, and this started before that, my monitor has...

I would say most likely it will probably be sometime in september. I haven't kept up with computer parts and prices in years, so I figure it would just be best if you guys took care of that. I mean I've built a few of them, but I don't peruse computer parts like I used to.

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming and web browsing 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? 1000$ yes, but if you think you can get similar performance for less, then feel free to go under 1000$ 3) Where do you live? Illinois 4)...

He bought the monitor from his friend who got a black friday deal or something. It is 1440x900 iirc He has a windows 7 32 bit that he bought for his laptop that he plans on using for this. He wants to play some new star wars mmo

Oh sorry, what I said before was misleading, he has the monitor already.

Alright, well I thought intel was still clock for clock faster than AMD, I thought AMD was still using the inferior architecture, well good to know. How are biostar boards and how is their customer service? He said he doesn't care about upgradability, he's using a 32 bit OS as it is so as I...

Yes but the cheaper it is the better the monitor is 1440x900 COOLER MASTER HAF 912 RC-912-KKN1 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119233 GIGABYTE GA-G41M-Combo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128449 These 2 are a combo for 95$ E3400 51$...

China is probably more capitalist than the United States... They have an unhampered market and less welfarism, that's why they're growing so fast. You cannot say something is similar to the soviet union when it has primarily privatized production.

I don't know what resolution it is,if it is going to effect which video card you recommend I would say assume it is whichever one is the more demanding resoultion. I am able to build him a nice computer without making this thread, but I don't peruse hardware in my leisure time anymore so I'm...

Okay so apparently he already has plans for a monitor a 19" one, Now it is much more doable. He has a 32 bit OS as well.

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? 450$-550$ 3) Where do you live? United States, IL 4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a...

If I were to attempt something like that I would build a few VAWTs (vertical axis wind turbine) if you could achieve even a fraction of the efficiency these units are pumping out it might be worth doing. http://www.hsck.com/vawt-b.htm you probably wouldn't be able to match them but if you...

If you're going to wait, wait for Darkfall online they announced a release date January 22nd.

http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?p=1934142#post1934142 This is pretty good news but most people will have to wait for open beta

yea and i would suspect (depending on the race you pick) there would be almost as many allies as there are enemies

I have made a thread in the darkfall forums about why darkfall will be superior because it is so much less repetitive then most other mmorpgs heres a link http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=75483

well they had a presentation at athens digital week just go look at the http://forums.darkfallonline.com news and they said "open beta will be finished by the start of december" so that means open beta will probably start this month I'm pretty excited my friend bet me this game was vaporware

wow thats really productive proofreading my posts i could go around and nitpick the posts with poor grammar but what would i have to gain from that oh wait could it possibly raise my post count

yes because anybody who doesn't agree with microsofts business practices is obviously a communist anyway you shouldn't just say people who use vista typically prefer this or people who refuse to use vista are typically like this nothing is black and white ockie in particular ive seen some of...

vista is so secure you have no idea i can just tell how secure it is whenever do anything i am reminded how secure it is especially when im updating it vista offers great performance per dollar il add that in my cart along with a core 2 extreme qx9770 cpu and my asus striker 2 extreme and...

using any more than 2 cards is if your looking for bleeding edge and i dont think you would be using amd and i dont think any more than 2 cards is practical but multicard solutions arent about bang for buck the way i see it you might save 10$ on a motherboard by going amd look at the gigabyte...
