Selling a couple of laptops as I am relocating and have been gaming primarily on desktop, happy to help with any pictures or further information needed. Dell Alienware R4 Core i7-10870H RTX 3070 8GB (125+15W TGP) 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD 1080p 15" Screen I'd rate it in "very good" condition, with...

Yowen's For Sale Thread! It's time to purge some of my collection of PC parts that I've amassed over the years. I will add more as time allows. SAPPHIRE RADEON 6870 (1GB): PN: 299-3E174-030SA Was used on and off over its life from gaming, ran fine when parked! Do not have any original packaging...

Hey guys, I have several pieces that could potentially come together to make a great system, but I could go several directions with it, what are your thoughts? I'm currently running the Gaming PC in my signature, it's currently definitely CPU limited (unsurprisingly). It does however still run...

So I've had the itch to build a new system, but no real identifiable need for one. So I figured why not get into mining? I get to build a new system, I get to learn some new things and perhaps I'll even make some money. I plan on just running Nicehash on my 1050TI tonight just to familiarize...

I bought 2x4GB of Corsair Vengeance 9-9-9-24 1600mhz DDR3 (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9). It's got the tall blue heatsinks on it. I already had Corsair memory at the same timings but at 1333mhz (CMX8GX3M2A1333C9). This one does not have a very big heatsink, just a cover around the memory. First when I...

Working on upgrading the system in my signature, +8GB memory, +250GB SSD, +Windows 10, just need a video card. I would like to get an Nvidia GTX 1050TI with 4GB. But would entertain other cards with similar performance capabilities, something with 4GB+ of memory that will run modern games. I'm...

As the title says and as you can see in my signature I have an i5 2300 system still (Sandy Bridge I believe). It's 5 years old and I built it mostly with parts bought here at the FS/FT forum. What a great experience by the way! This system has served me well over the last 6 years. I've just...

So I decided to play some good old CS... I used to play 1.5 and 1.6 to no end. Anyways, I like to play cs_assault, so I start shooting at ct's, as a t! No problem right? Well there was... I was shooting at people's feet before I could see their heads. WTF! How do you guys feel about...

For my job I have to send out purchase orders, this is usually done by email. What would be a good place to start to get something that will generate the email from information taken out of the PDF (most importantly the email address and purchase order number)? We use Outlook here...

What would you guys recommend to get? I'll admit it! I loved playing BF Vietnam and Battlefield 2 offline and was sorely disappointed when I found BF3 does not have an offline multiplayer. I loved it for those days that I didn't have internet or when I simply didn't feel like getting owned by...

Hey, I was wondering about this. I took a look at the shelves on my entertainment center and noticed they are fully enclosed on all sides but the front. Since the GD05B blows are out the side and out the back, That wouldn't exactly be great for airflow... Would I get away with this or should...

I've had this case in my cart for a while now and it went from $89 just a couple days ago to $70 yesterday, I've placed my order. I imagine the case is getting on it's age, but still a great deal for an HTPC case that fits a regular power supply...

Hey guys, maybe you know what might be wrong here. I have a 40GB harddrive that my cousin gave me, something happened to it when he let a friend use his computer to browse the internet, the computer will not boot up anymore. So I connected it to my usb adapter to see what I could salvage. Now...

So Have a 2.5" Hitachi laptop drive for my desktop right now, it's 500gb, 7200 rpm. It is a 7K500. Are the performance levels of this comparable to a recent desktop model? the reason this is on my desktop is that I bought just before HD prices skyrocketed, so instead of putting it in my...

Would this DVI cable be ok for going from my HD6870 to my monitor? The computer will be in my tv stand and the monitor is wall mounted about 10ft away. edit: Doh! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012SIGLO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A7XHMWMCZ9EID

So I am building a new computer tomorrow, I haven't quite decided how I want to handle sound. It will have this motherboard. But I also have this usb soundcard which I originally bought because my laptop was my only computer and i wanted surround sound. For now I don't have a receiver...

So the last time I had a desktop that had a fighting chance at playing the latest game was probably about 6 yrs ago. With it probably not being able to play any new release about 3, probably 4 years ago. It was a 754 Athlon 3200 and a Radeon 9800 pro (ah the memories...) Now, I have on my way...

Hello Everyone, I would like to buy the following: Case: - Still Looking! mATX case, something along the lines of a Silverstone GD05B Core i5 Processor: - Found! (i5 2300) I would like a 2500K, but if you have a reasonable price on a lower/non-overclocking model I will definitely consider...

I used to love playing this game. I recently had somewhat of a trip down memory lane by playing theme hotel on kongregate.com. But found myself wondering if you guys knew of any other similar games?

I will probably be needing around 20 - 30 ft. of 1/2 inch white cable sleeving to organize cable going along my white baseboards. I am thinking that'll make them look a lot better. It will be one DVI, one Power, one usb and probably an audio cable. I figure 1/2 inch should fit the bill? I...

Hey, I'd like to put a light behind my monitor, what sort of solutions have you guys come up with? I was just hoping to find a good way to put a light behind my monitor to make it less stressful to my eyes at night. Thanks for your input!

Hey guys, I have a Samsung 51D550 Plasma tv coming in on Wednesday. Now I am not really crazy about all this 3d trend going on right now, but I figure I may as well mess around with it a little bit. Do I understand correctly I would need a current gen AMD or nVidia card to display 3d content...

I'd have to get more exact numbers later, but I was wondering if I could reliably (any weather, any season) share an internet connection with someone I know in my apartment complex. There is almost a clear line of sight apart from some trees. From what I read online I can make or buy a...

This thing is starting to drive me nuts! I use it at work and I figure I can get them to let me spend a little money on it. It also helps that I do all purchasing here :D Dell Optiplex GX620 P4 2.8Ghz HT 1Gb Ram WD800JD-75msa1 (80gb harddrive) Radeon X600 Now the clear path to increased...

Here is my original thread (for reference) I figure I'd start a new one with a more relevant topic title. edit: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1619645 At this point I am thinking: Harddrive: This 5400rpm, 500gb: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136314 or this...

Dell Lattitude D620 Is it worth it? It currently has a dual core T2300, 80gb harddrive and 2gb memory and an Nvidia NVS Quadro 110M and have it hooked up to a docking station to a 1080p monitor. I was thinking an SSD and maybe another gb of memory would make it a little faster and I'd be...

I don't own either of these, but I do own a wallpaper website, so if I were to make wallpapers for these, what size(s) would I want to make these? I tried a google search, but need a little more info. I guess there isn't one end-all be-all resolution? What things do I need to consider when...

Hey guys, I am working on a wallpaper website and I want to start offering some custom resolutions for you guys with 3x Portrait setups and Portrait-Landscape-Portrait setups (just to mention a couple). Mostly curious of the bezel correction I did on this works for you. The one I did here is a...

Hey, I know this is weird, but I cannot fathom not having a flip phone! I have an LG VX8300 and its getting kinda old haha, I've had it for about 5 yrs and it still works. But two things happened, it won't hold anymore contacts (I think i reached 500) and I just graduated and got a good job...

Been reading this forum for many years, haven't built a desktop in about 6 years, I have kept up on the latest technology pretty well i like to think. I am somewhat leaning toward AMD, seeing as how I want a budget build this seems like a good way to go. I just got done reading the multi lcd...
