    NAS for HD content

    I may be totally wrong about this, but isn't FreeNAS software based RAID, so why do you need the hardware RAID Card? If you want to expand your setup, you could use a SuperMicro card that costs $100, no raid, but provides an interface for 8 more SATA drives. Connects with PCI slot, although...

    Help Building NAS/WHS System

    Hello... edit... long freaking post I have tried to do a fair bit of research for this project, but I am basically lost when it comes to what hardware I need, or what option I should pursue (I'm guessing WHS will work fine, but a NAS with RAID 5 would probably also be adequate) Purpose: -...

    swans d1080 with sub

    If you get a Y-Connector from your computer output (RCA Output, no sub out) to powered speakers and the energy sub, does that reduce the power/volume of the speakers overall? I would imagine it does, but I'm not sure, nor do I know how much it'd reduce the sound levels by... I could increase...

    Ear Force AK-R8 Cannot Install Drivers (HELP!)

    If you have winrar (I don't think winzip will work)... copy the contents of the cd onto a folder on your desktop or anywhere. Right click on the setup.exe, or any other file, and see if you can extract the content... Once you've extracted all the stuff into that folder... Go to device...

    Ear Force AK-R8 Cannot Install Drivers (HELP!)

    Have you tried going through device manager -> update drivers... then select the drivers from the cd? Might not get all the bells and whistles, but it should at least install the drivers required for windows to send audio to your headphones

    X-Fi Titanium vs. Xonar DX

    One thing you should know/realize about Windows Vista and presumably Windows 7 is that gaming audio, if it attempts to use EAX or directsound is butchered quite significantly. At least that's what I recall. It's basically to make Windows more stable. Creative has created alchemy, which...

    SONY XEL-1 OLED

    I think any news about OLED mass production should be handled with a massive amount of skepticism... People all over the place are making huge advancements in this technology... new problems will probably arise as old problems are dealt with

    BenQ FP241VW is supposed to be excellent for gaming... I have it, but I don't have a PS3... Fairly solid monitor and it should cost less than $600

    You should also test it a second time by switching what port the monitors connect to on your video card To make sure the video card doesn't have any issues in itself between the two ports

    How to run horizontal display?

    Some video cards (the new ones) I believe have two dvi ports, so you should be able to run two monitors using one video card I don't think you can use two video cards separately on one machine. You could run them in crossfire mode or whatever NVidia does... makes the computer think it's one...
