Decide to look at there inventory again to see if Christmas sales are good and customers reviews. Well for us regular customers, we are not important enough to give good customer service, is a major point for me. Bought high end motherboard and it was broke, they didn't take the motherboard...

Never had a problem with them, but I do register my products regardless if I bought or not. I build computers and strickly buy Asus, the only time I don't is when a specific customer requests a different motherboard. I am always nice even when I am a little pissed. They don't have the same...

Try CrossFIre. The point of that is to balance load the video cards. You get better GPU processing during gaming. To CrossFire you need the adapter to connect both cards.

The problem is more widespread than people realize, if you own a laptop with Nvidia graphic chip chances are that you see this problem. Sony also has seen this issue per an online article: http://internews.comze.com/?p=31 The book of interest: Surface Mount Technology: Principles and...

Read the post. Stating a fact that Model A1226 Macbook logic board is fixable if you replace the Nvidia chip, carelfully. Yes personal laptop, but why does it have to be a complaint if you don't understand the tread. If you actually understand this issue, it is a big problem. I belong to...

Had my nephew's MacBook Pro A1226 to fix from last year. The usual Nvidia graphic chip. I found a Ebay seller in China that sells the IC at a good price. Goldenchipset for $25 and bought the re-ball template for $7, just in case I have mounting issue. Shipping took 1/12 weeks. The original...

The info you looking for is in this Tread, one of the members posted instructions and pictures.

Ohm law is tool that we use to calculate basic electronic circuits parameters. It is referred to as ohm law which is resistance but since we use the electron as the basis of energy, or generating energy used Volts, Current, Power and Resistance. Where: P = power in watts E = voltage in...

Use Ohms law. I did a two card SLI configuration. And calculated the wattage and had a120watt overhead, it was fine the first 6 months. Built it for my boss to do Star Wars online gaming. He didn't want any video hesitation or reboot cause by the video card drawing over the power supply...

In opinion, their RMA process is the worst I've seen. Still following the tread to see if others are having the same issues. Even though motherboard problems have gone down, they are still mitigating their losses. You don't get that from Amazon. Always a return without question, no hidden...

Yes I saw the QX9300 but like you said, was out of my price range. This laptop is going to my brother as a gift for excellent work around moms house. Wasn't looking for max hardware operation, since this is a gift I chose in cost and functionality, and longer term use of the laptop. The...

Bought a used HP Elitebook laptop from corporate lease seller on Ebay. Attempt to put a Intel Core2 Q9000, a quad processor. Got it pretty cheap, and upgrades cost me $153. Cannot find a new Intel Core2 Q9000 new at a good price so bought used processor. Works! The good thing about this...

Never been asked to this before. Just delete my blog entry out and I will PM UnknownSouljer. Thanks but I don't mind email spammers, my box is up to >5000 emails.

Wondering if it is tied to the device. Anyway I have one too, and am willing to burn a copy of the software with the key. I don't mind sharing but very picky who. Your a season blogger on this site, and I am just a few year old in this blogging stuff. Reason I asked about model #. Not sure...

Model #? surprised you didn't ask DataColor for the software. You won't find anything general use software out there, this is most likely proprietary tied to the device design.

Easy one two three. Fry's Electronics has these types of components, you could do a search and figure a good compnent seller near you. Electrolytic Capacitors also help prevent voltage surge or spikes on the DC voltage, yes they filter out noise as well like the 60Hz. This one looks like it is...

I have the G73JH gaming laptop, works great for me. It is popular among gamers, friends and family. Your going to have heat issues with any laptop, it is heat genereated in small compact space. Suggest the laptop that has two fans, believe this model does G750JX. I use a cooling pad and...

Newegg is like the "invasion of the body snatchers". They draw you in with false promises, then boom the pod (Newegg) spits you out but keeps your money. New way... to do business.

Rare request to want both technologies on a motherboard. We are talking about server motherboards nothing else, regular motherboards would never support this message system IPMI. Most server boards I work with are VGA out, a few DVI out...

Even though there are some cheap software to burn DVD, in disk copy mode. Not many can do exactly what I wanted. Spent a couple years looking and nothing really good. I broke down and bought Nero 12 and AnyDVD (liftime updates). Total cost was $220.00. Worth every penny. I sptit the software...

Known issue with MSI boards, will not recogized the PCI-e slots or just one slot works. It is a hardware thing. Also driver suppost is important, power supply current is also very important. Re-calculate the max power consumption.

Go with PC laptop, it is the same thing as Macbook Pro, the hardware guts are the same. Buy the Mac OS on Ebay for cheap, dual boot the system to give you both Windows and Apple OS choice. Cheaper to do in my opinion. I know some true Apple geeks that finally switched over to Windows. Better...

Amazon in my opinion is a great company. They have an amazing warehouse, in how they do it. Customer service is also very important, more so now. Profit keeps the company going but keeping their employees working and offering great customer experiance is equally important. I buy from Amazon...

It is about how fast and how well a metal conducts heat out toward a cooler enviroment, the higher the number better heat conductivity. Aluminum is 124 Copper is 213 Gold is 235 Silver is >400 You want to have heat leave the component as fast as it can to either air or water. Heat moves...

I switch to buying from Amazon, they have a great reputation for their customers. Also buy local at Fry's Electronics. I still have the $300 motherboard I bought from Newegg last year, just waiting for the socket to come on to the market so I can repair this myself. Newegg broke 4 pins on...

So many choices to pick from. My recent buy at Amazon the Intel 4770K and H60 cooler fit the best outcome. Now need to buy the best OC motherboard, Asus Z87 TUF, Hero or Sabertooth will be my choice when I can afford it, hoping on a nice Christmas gift. Motherboard? My plan is to get it to...

Not a Nvidia fan at all. I had to fix several desktops and laptops with their overheated video chips. I stopped repairing them now because the cost to rework and labor out wieghs the benefit. AMD is not perfect but way better than Nvidia. I tell friends and family get a new laptop with either...

Well I had a rework operator do mine and it still has issues. To reball it takes the correct tools and the know how. My guy takes about a week on average to reball one IC, he is profectionis. I put mine in the closet until I find a better way to deal with oversheating, that is the real...

Took the certs late 90's for Winidows,Unix and Solaris. They have been saying things about it since then over 10 years. Hasn't happened yer. Microsoft is to strong of an OS, I know many Apple/Linux users going back to Windows.More drvier support for Windows than Linux. It is hodge podge...

If he pulled the money already, it will be between banks. If you put it on a VISA or Mastercard via Paypal, you call them and get some direction. Most credit cards have a purchase guarantee which would credit your card.

First thing VB or VB.net is not dead language. In the electronic manufacturing and engineering, VB is widely used more than other languages because for quick test routine development, it is so easy and fast. We do have extensive test routines in Java and LabWIndows. I started C in LabWindows. A...

Micro Center per their website none on hand. Ebay is to risky for me to buy at $300 or more part. Craigslist but again same thing a trust factor. What I don't get about Newegg. They posted a record a profit year in 2007, over 2 billiion. In this economy who has record profits in electronics...

Don't buy from Newegg, do a online search. Newegg is not honoring returns.

Newegg has been doing this now for several years. There is another thread in Hard Forum that several people who have been screwed by Newegg, including me. I do many, many builds and never damaged a motherboard. They said I did on a $300 Asus motherboard, which is a lie. Because they bent the...

Had a similar issue with my G73JH. Took a while but searched Ebay until I found equal type video card. Found one for $39 on Ebay. Came from Clevo laptop so took the chance. Noticed the card was a little smaller but heatsink did mount to the video card. Also I emailed Asus with a question...

Current Asus video card overheating. Bought another one from Ebay seller came out of a Clevo W860CU laptop, bought for $39. It works just fine without updates. The card is smaller but heatsink and X bracket fit partially. Three of the heatsink screws mounted fine and card screw to motherboard...

I have similar specs AMD II x4 965, except I am using two HD4850 video card in Crossfire mode. Your problem is how the video is getting handled by the CPU and GPU. Seen this problem on motherboards with onboard video from the chipset, you'll want to offload that video to separate GPU. I don't...

Good, glad to see others are getting the message that Newegg is not a place to do business with and if you do it is at your own risk. Last year bought new Asus motherboard for Intel i7 PC, it would not recognize the memory. They said send it back, so I did. In a week I got it back stating...

I Would pull the drivers from Toshiba's website, includes XP drivers, do it. Push it to a USB drive or burn it to DVD. I found that if Windows 7 does not update all the drivers then using Vista or XP drivers do work on most laptops. Windows 8 a no go for me until they iron out the bugs...

I think the Intel® Core™ i7-620M Processor is your option. Same socket pin type and temps are the same. Bios would need to support it, not usually a problem. The chipset does support the i7 processor so all you have to do is update the BIOS to latest version. See it on Ebay for $150 to $200.
