Hi, guys Right now I own 2 displays: a BenQ XL2420T (24 inch 16:9 1080p 120Hz display TN) and an Acer P243W (24 inch 16:10 1200p TN). The Acer display is getting really hot plus it makes weird sounds once you get closed to it (when sitting at the normal viewing position you don't notice the...

Hi, guys Right now I have the following system: AMD Phenom II X6 [email protected] with the northbridge set at 3GHz Asus Crosshair IV Formula 16GB Ram GTX680 1080p 120Hz display While the system is performing pretty darn well, I can't get passed the idea that the CPU is holding me back...

Will a Thermalright Archon fit on a Asus Crosshair IV Formula with high profile ram?

I plan on buying a new monitor and right now I think the Asus VG236 is the right choice for my needs. At the moment I am using an Asus G73 notebook as my primary gaming machine. I don't have a DVI connection on the notebook so I will be using the HDMI connection to plug in the new monitor. Is...

I want to upgrade my graphics card (HD4870X2) to 2 HD5870 1GB in Crossfire. I currently have a P45 mainboard. Will the two 8X PCI 2.0 slots cause problems? Framerate degradation (compared to 2 X16 PCI-E 2.0 slots) shouldn't be a considerable issue, but would microsttutering be a problem?

I will use it/them as OS drive/s (win7 x64) + programs + steam folder. What is the best setup? For storage I have 4x640GB drives + 2x1TB drives.

Are there any good LCD TVs (32"-42") to use for games on a PC? I want something bigger and better than my 25.5" Asus VW266H. I will also watch plenty of movies on it so besides input lag and response time I also want good picture quality. Any help will be apreciated. Thx in advance!

I currently have a X-Fi Fatality Platinum Champion and wanted better audio quality from my headphones (Sennheiser HD595). Will the Xonar Essence STX give me enough quality over the X-Fi to justify the purchase? I will keep the X-Fi for games, and the STX for music (if it has better audio quality...

I currently have an Asus VW266H 25.5" LCD (it's one month old). I have a good offer on a 2 year old HP LP3065 LCD. Is this swap worth the trouble? I know the HP is one of the best 30" monitors, but its age is my main concern. What would you do if you were in my place? :( LE. Actually the HP is...

Can the Samsung 2693HM/LG W2600H-PF/Samsung T260 do 75Hz fluently? I want an 101% sure answer. Thanks in advance!

Why is this monitor regarded as one of the best monitors for gaming? When overdrive is 100%, corona effects/ghosting are present and are very annoying. When overdrive is set to 40%, the annoying ghosting is no longer visable/present but the monitor isn't that responsive as before. Another...

What is causing this frame skipping? Is it the low quality cable provided by Asus? Would a DVI Dual-Link Cable help? Please help! CounterStrike is really really bad at 60 Hz. :(

I have an Asus P5Q Deluxe (P45 Chipset) and 2 x 2 GB Ram. Right now i have set my quad-core (Yorkfield) to 475 Mhz FSB. If I add an identical memory kit will I be able to obtain the same FSB with this combo without stability issues? Is anyone running this exact setup? I know that the previous...

Right now I am trying 3.8 Ghz but it gets errors from the very first minutes in Prime95 blend. I've tried different combinations of voltages but it simply won't get passed Prime95 without errors. This chip has done 4 Ghz on another mainboard. In my daily work (including gaming) I didn't have...

I've installed one hdd on the RAID related ports and it won't work. I've seen in the BIOS that there are only six hdd slots. What is the explination? Are those raid ports unusable with non-raid setting? Thank you in advance! LE: I've solved it myself. I activated Drive Expert and everything...

I own an HD4870X2 and today I installed Windows Vista x64 with pretty high hopes, but reality was not so pretty. Absolutely all games run slower than the previous OS, a Windows Xp pretty darn old. I've tried 9.3 and 9.4 beta drivers and performance is almost the same. What is the problem? :(

Which would be the best option between the E8600 at 4.5 GHz and a Q9650 at 4 Ghz strictly for gaming this year and maybe the first quarter of 2010? I play at 1680x1050.

The question is how much will the E6750 at 3.8 Ghz limit the graphics card. I game at 1680x1050 all filters to maximum at the moment.

Are there tehnical/quality differences between the US and UK Version of the Logitech G15?

First of all, I want to know if this is possible. I already have a X-Fi Fatal1ty Platinum Champion which performs very well in games, but I heard that Asus Xonar DX performs better in music and movies and I decided to give it a try as a secondary sound card (only if possible). As audio devices I...

Currently I own a P35 DS3R board from Gigabyte. With my current CPU, an E6750, it worked like a charm. I was able to push it all the way to 4 GHz with the right amount of voltage. I am planning to upgrade my current CPU to an E8600 which I will overclock to at least 4.5 GHz 24/7. I want to know...

I will buy this PSU in a couple of days and I was wondering if the 40A + 40A on the 12V rails isn't kind of low for an 1000 W PSU. I've seen 850W ones with more amps.

I have a 600W PSU with 40A on the 12V rails, is this enough to power one GTX 280? Rest of the system is [email protected], 2x2 GB, 5 HDDs, X-FI, 7 ventilators.

The monitor enters saving mode/stand by and after wake up the image is resized and placed to the right side. The LCD is connected via a D-SUB/VGA cable. My video card is a HD 4870. Help please!

I am planning on getting the Samsung T260 display, is this good for games like Counter Strike: Source, Unreal Tournament 3, Call Of Duty or overall PC gaming?
