I've been on a prepaid plan for a few years now. I'm in the market for a new iPhone, and there are all these "deals" out there that give you "discounts" on the phones. However, they all require some postpaid "Unlimited" plan of service. These postpaid plans are all more expensive than my prepaid...

I want to go with a Ubiquiti router setup but they don’t seem to do long term traffic counting. I have a bandwidth cap and want to keep track of my month to month bandwidth. I do this easily now with my Nighthawk router. Any cheap and easy add on solutions for this?

I have loved my R7000 for 3 years until recently I started having wireless issues. I thought upgrading to a R8000 was a no brainer but it lasted 2 days before I took that piece of junk back to Best Buy for a refund. The range was horrible compared to my R7000. On 5G I was down to 1 Mbps in my...

I’m looking to spec out a new server for a nonprofit situation of about 25-50 users. A small AD environment with a couple of light database server needs. They are running on a ~2005 HP tower server with 1 GB of RAM and Server 2003 OS. They also use it as a file server. I quoted a couple of...

So, I keep around 20-30 Windows VMs on my laptop. I use VMWare Workstation. What technique or tool do you use to keep your monthly patches up? Right now I am booting each one up and connecting it to the Internet to check for patches. It sucks. I know there's a better way. What is it? Thanks!

I thought my graphics card was toast the other day. I turned on my PC and the monitor was dead, and the GPU was putting out 100% fan. I hard powered the PC down. Then I figured out that if I turned it back on, the GPU would work. There is a 50/50 chance that when I cold boot, the GPU...

I had to rip the mouse feet off the Razer DeathAdder I just bought from eBay because the right mouse button wasn't working. So I took the mouse apart and fixed it - but now I don't have any mouse feet. I saw the Hyperglide ones but they ship from Singapore and take a month to arrive...

I don't know how 10,000 DPI is practical. Is this for higher resolutions than 1080p? PS I just got an adjustable DPI mouse (had the MX-518 but it didn't have such a wide range on the slider) but anything over about 3500 DPI seems unusable to me...

Looking to buy one - PST. Thanks!!

So as the title alludes, I have had problems with my onboard audio for some time. I figured it was my old x58 motherboard and I didn't think too much about it. But now I am really annoyed I just upgraded to LGA 1150 and the new motherboard has the same hissing and static with the onboard...

If you've seen another thread I have you will know that I reinstalled my EVO 212 cooler many times due to a thermally unstable 4690k that is currently in RMA.... The last time I pulled it off I noticed what I thought might be damage to the motherboard traces around the standoffs. I noticed...

I'm just curious why some people's internet browsing technique includes having dozens or hundreds of tabs open in their browsers. If I have 10 tabs open, I am culling them down before opening more. What am I missing out on?? :confused:

MalwareBytes "Free Edition" with it's "Premium" banners, banners for blog headlines, red "X" marks showing that you're not a "Premium" member, "Free Trial" click links, "Buy Now" buttons has become a whorish piece of software. It used to be really professionally designed and I felt great...

I have reseated the Hyper 212 EVO cooler twice on this i5-4690k with Arctic Silver 5. Once with the vertical line method and once with the pea sized dot in center method. Both times I get the same result. Core 0 is 20C hotter than Cores 1-3 during Prime95. Core 0 gets up to 85-90C and 1-3...

I'm pretty laid back in the gaming arena. I like the occasional MMO like LOTRO or maybe I will get into something like Skyrim. I thought a $50 6870 on eBay might be a worthwhile upgrade to try CrossFire for the first time - but wow am I way down on this chart -...

Is it safe to ship a CPU locked in a motherboard socket? Google returned a few outdated opinions on this. Curious what all you guys here do. Thanks.

Please PM offer if you have a new or used one for sale. Thanks.

Maybe kind of a weird question - but how often do the bundle discounts at Microcenter change? I'm going to be around one, but not for 6 weeks. I'm looking at the 4690k + Gigabyte Gaming 7 mobo for $299, but no idea if this type of bundle will be around in 6 weeks because I'm so far from a...

I've got a Gigabyte board. Friends with ASUS. What's the [H] opinion of MSI boards? Eyeing the $309 combo on Newegg for the 4690k and the Z97S board for $309 this weekend... Thanks...

My PC has been power cycling itself at random times. It doesn't act like a reboot, it acts like I have pushed a hardware reset button, the tower goes dark for a few seconds (all the LEDs and fans go down), then the computer comes up to the booting POST screen. I thought the PSU might be...

I am just curious what your response to this question would be? Just generally, why would you want to upgrade your PC that is running this platform? PS - the question isn't intended to mean it shouldn't be upgraded ... in fact, I am curious for reasons/excuses to do so. :)

Trying to decide.. Not much into gaming for awhile now... But I spent many years playing LOTRO... Any thoughts on this one?

I built my wife a new PC for Christmas. I put a A8-5600K in it. Thought it would be peachy, but I have reapplied the stock cooler 3 times with Thermaltake paste and still having temperature issues. I read online that people seem to get about 60C tops on this. I am getting 90C+ in prime95...
