What about cooler master silent pro m2 psus? Are they good? Cuz I heard they're very silent. The 720w seems interesting, 80+ Bronze certified (according to cooler master) though not listed in 80+ website as certified. I don''t know why.

i'm not sure i understand. what's "the platform"? for newbies, plz

does that mean that those PSUs have a false 80+ certification?

Hi, Looking at the specs of these PSUs at www.coolermaster.com they claim that all these series of PSUs are 80plus (bronze and above) certified. However, in 80plus website at: http://www.plugloadsolutions.com/80PlusPowerSupplies.aspx they are not listed as certified. How is that? Isn't that...

so there's no point in having a monitor with ARC feature if you have a Nvidia graphics card, it just won't work, right?

Hi there, I have a problem with ARC (Aspect Ratio Control) and my Dell U2410 (the fw version is Rev. A01 "M1F19"). The problem is that before entering Windows (for example in the BIOS) ARC doesn't work with my new graphics card (Gigabyte Geforce GTX 460) since it shows at full screen and very...

Hi there, I've built a new system: Asus P7P55D-E LX mobo (chipset P55), core i5, etc. It's the same as the P7P55D-E mobo, but with only one PCIE 16x slot. The problem is that the same hdd (WD Black 2TB) has far better performance in another computer that a friend of mine has with Gigabyte...

I need some help cuz I'm gonna build a new pc including these two components: an Asus P55 mobo and the famous Noctua NH-D14 fan to cool a Core i5. As those Noctua cpu coolers (3-pin connector) doesn't support the PWM function that has the 4-pin connector in the motherboard, I'd like to know if...

That reminds me that I forgot to mention that I also tried disabling the WD Smartware Virtual CD (it's an additional drive embedded somehow in the MyBook disk) before disconnecting the USB, but that also didn't work. I shutdown, connected to SATA and powered on the computer, like any internal...

hi, maybe u tried that with an older version of mybook. My version is the one with the white lights (WDBAAF0020HBK), not the previous version that had a blue light. Here is a pic: http://www.wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=730 And yes, I connected it back with the WD enclosure and the...

not gonna format it, man all my data is supposedly there but when connecting it as internal SATA, it doesn't show any partitions. Anyone knows the steps to take in order to connect WD MyBook HDD to internal SATA?

Hi there, I took apart WD MyBook 2 TB and connected it as internal sata hdd, but once in Windows 7, the WD20EADS disk appears as unallocated (Oh my God!!). When connected by the WD enclosure, it had a single 2TB NTFS partition. Is this normal? Have anyone tried this? Maybe should I put some...

I have a problem with the Realtek High Definition Audio card integrated in Gigabyte GA-790XTA-UD4 motherboard. When I plug my headphones to the output green jack in the back of the ATX case and play any movie/music or whatever, I hear some kind of popping/cracking in the audio. What is it?

Hello matt00926, it's a Antec Sonata III 500W ATX case problem. It's a buzzing noise when connecting headphones to the front panel audio connector. They say that the front panel cables aren't properly shielded and interferes with the graphics card. This is the discussion thread...

I'm considering drives from Seagate and WD and maybe Samsung for a 2x500GB RAID 0. Whch ones should I get? WD Caviar Blue WD Caviar Green (I think these doesn't work well in RAID) WD Caviar Black Seagate 7200.12 Seagate LP any other? I'm not considering more expensive disks like WD...

I'm looking some opinions about how this XL2370 compares to the famous NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi in terms of color quality and ghosting in playing HD videos and gaming. I'm kind of deciding between those two, since for the comments I've read, I guess the XL2370 it's not just another TN-panel...
