I recently built a pair of Overnight Sensations that sound excellent. If you are more project minded and don't mind spending a weekend putting a pair of cabinets and a simple crossover together, you can save some coin over retail and have something to be proud of.
Jumping on this bandwagon too. My U2412M arrived today and I had about 15 minutes at lunch to mess around with it and get a couple of quick BFBC2 games in. Having never owned an IPS panel in the past, I now see what I've been missing all these years.
A quick glance at LightRoom and some of my...
Not sure how to quantify your criteria, but I just ordered and received the Lian-Li PC-A05N and am very pleased with the build quality and looks. It's probably one of the smaller cases you can buy that accommodates ATX form factor. You might need to narrow down your criteria a little bit to give...
Just ordered my very own A05N and am looking forward to having some fun with it. I've got a lot of inspiration from the threads here and on OCN so I've definitely got some good ideas to get started with. Time to retire my old CM690 and move into a smaller, more elegant chassis!
Ordered 4 yesterday from Performance-PCs. Turnaround time on the order processing was incredibly fast! Had a shipping notification with tracking information a few hours after processing my order. Your choice of colors on sleeve and heat-shrink from Performance-PCs too.
Also bear in mind that for the number of bad reviews out on the Egg there is also a large number of satisfied customers (like myself) that don't post their positive experiences. Squeaky wheel gets the grease and all. It also seems that all of these P67 boards have their fair share of issues so...
I have the P8P67 Pro and have been pretty pleased with it. These boards probably took the brunt of the rage that consumers had over the whole chip set recall as they were pretty available (inventory wise) early on so I wouldn't take all reviews to heart. I can't speak for everyone out there, but...
Came from a similar system myself (e6750, 8800GTs in SLI, 4GB RAM) to a similar build (see sig) and I can tell you the difference was night and day. Only thing you are missing is a SSD.
Well forcing the driver didn't allow me to change resolutions either. I really can't understand what the problem could be with the DVI connection. I might try this monitor on a friend's PC to see if they can get the native resolutions to show up. Anyone else have any other insight on this?
Thanks Kolthor, I will definitely be giving this a try today to see what happens. I think I'm going to be getting a larger monitor (perhaps the ASUS VE278Q) anyway, but I would like to continue to use this monitor for both my PC and XBOX360 so I need both the DVI and VGA connections to work!
Haven't tried reversing the cable, but I opened a new thread yesterday in the Display forum as I tried running a VGA cable with DVI adapter on yesterday and that allowed me to choose any of the resolution options offered by the monitor. Something is up with either the DVI cable or the DVI...
Created a thread on the video card forum but after further testing, this appears to be a display issue as best as I can tell. I have a Samsung SyncMaster T220 which up until recently, was working fine over a DVI connection. After restarting from sleep the other day, it was displaying in 1024x768...
I'll have to check to see if that option is available in nVidia control panel. I don't recall seeing it there last night. It looks like other people have been successful using PowerStrip to create "Custom" resolution profiles to solve this problem. I just don't understand what changed as...
It appears this is a Windows driver issue for the monitor. After trying multiple times last night to get the drivers installed correctly, I still can't get the monitor out of these low resolutions. Looking in the Device Manager I see that the monitor is correctly identified however, when I look...
So I am a little perplexed. Set up this PC a few months ago and everything has been fine up until a couple days ago. I restarted my PC from sleep and when the desktop came up it was in 1024x768. I checked the display settings and I can no longer change the resolution to 1680x1050 (Samsung...
I believe that particular SSD received excellent reviews on AnandTech when it was first introduced; however, I can't speak to the model you linked specifically. Depending on your budget, for a little more money you can double the storage and still get a "decent" drive - Crucial C300 64GB. I'm...
I haven't experienced any issues with mine...not to say that there aren't issue out there, but I've been quite pleased with mine since installing it a few months back. Good deal!
Swapped mine without any issues. Didn't even have to re-activate my Windows 7 license...the one thing I was really dreading. Relatively quick and painless job.
Sorry to poke fun, but this story is pretty amazing. Sorry to hear about your troubles! Next time, no distractions when building with expensive PC components!
12-minute video was great but the only thing that kind of let me down graphically was when he was shooting the mounted .50 cal right before the buildings colapse, the bullets coming out of the ammo box aren't animated...looked kind of hokey
Other than that, everything else looks and sounds...
