Not really sure if this is the best place to put this, but it seems my motherboard might have gotten fried from a short circuit. Here's what happened: I unplugged the control wire from my CPU cooler, plugged it back in slightly misaligned, and the system shut off and wouldn't turn back on. When...

So 3 months or so back I traded with a guy on another forum. I agreed to trade the CPU, Motherboard, and Cooler from my old system in exchange for a pair of more powerful processors. My side of the trade went well, his side did not. He did not sufficiently protect the processors for transport...

So a member of another forum owes me some money. I won't go into too much detail, but we traded items, the items he sent me were improperly packaged and ended up nonfunctional. The difficult part is apparently getting money from his account to mine. We would use Paypal, but his Paypal is...

So this might be in the wrong section, but here's an issue I've had lately. Ever since I installed my liquid cooling loop in my gaming system I've been having issues with any windows that are open when the system goes to sleep. In this instance I had three chrome windows open, one filing each...

Alright, I'm in need of a bit of tech support. So for my gaming system I've got a Xeon E5-2680 v1 installed in an MSI X79 OEM board used for the Alienware Aurora R4. Now, I want to use some spare DDR3 ECC memory I had lying around to replace the non-ECC stuff I had previously (for reliability...

Anyone know how an LGA 2011 socket is supposed to come apart? It looks like there are 4 hex-type screws holding the hold-down plate to the backplate, but I don't know if there's more to it and I don't know the size of bit I'd need. Edit: Words are hard, bad autocorrect doesn't help.

So I can find cheap MXM cards on eBay and sites like that, and MXM is supposed to be a Mobile PCI-e variant, so why does no-one make an adapter to allow the use of MXM cards in PCI-e slots? I've seen pictures of prototypes like this one... ...But they apparently never made it to market...

So I apparently am the biggest basshead ever. I like listening to EDM music, but I haven't been able to find headphones with enough bass for my liking. So it's time to look for new headphones. What's a set of headphones with huge bass but still decent mids and highs? I don't really have a budget...

Mr. Pant's Sale and Trading Thread! Hey guys, I've got some extra electronics laying around that I don't use anymore, so I figured I'd sell them off. Everything I have is in like-new or very good condition and will come with the retail packaging if I still have it and all the original...

Pretty cool right?: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet Edit: How do I picture? Edit 2: Screw it, here's a link.

Hello [H] Members! I've been having an odd issue with the SSD boot drive on my server. The drive is a Sandisk Z400s, and every once in a while (maybe once an hour, it's all over the place) the system will just lock up and the HDD activity light on the case will light up solid. When the system...
