This is the build I'm leaning towards. Graphics card and (additional) hard drive left out.

I'm putting my tax return and good credit to use and taking Newegg up on their 12 months interest free financing. I find myself pondering two different i7 builds. One with an SSD and 4890 and the other with a 5870.
I'm looking for thoughts and perspectives I haven't had. I'm really looking...
Thanks, OEM is the term I'm used to hearing.
Triple Channel vs. Dual Channel is understandable. I'm interested in thoughts on RAM amounts. I tend to do a lot of multi-tasking. Think several office applications open, plus photo editing. 6 gigs sufficient? I hate that slow down you tend do...
You guys rock. I love this advice.
A couple of questions.
1) What does "bare drive" mean? I've seen it describing a few different hard drives.
2) I've noticed no one has recommended over 4 gigs of ram with the Phenom. Any reason?
3) Also, are SSDs really that big of a performance boost for...
I've long since hung up my hobbyist spurs, and don't really know where to get started in peicing out a new PC. I would appreciate any insight and help those more in the know can offer (that would be you reading this).
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing...
That would be incredibly useful here. I've long since gotten out of practice of knowing every card that's been released and their relative performance gains. It's a bit daunting after 3 years to try and figure out "okay just what is better than my current graphics card, aside from the $500...
The 'ol memory has more important things to worry about these days ;)
I actually found most of the information I was looking for on Wikipedia, but figured I'd leave this open in case anyone had neat information.
Anyone know of a source outlining the lineage of graphics cards? I'm looking for both Nvidia and ATI, preferably performance based instead of time based since companies often release their high end cards before their middle of the road/budget line.
much appreciated!
It could be a power supply issue, but all of the board LEDs are lighting up when I plug the system in. Unfortunately I don't have a spare power supply, I only have the one. It's up and working now. I may just avoid turning it off. Luckily the little lady is a gamer herself, so she can...
I'm not even sure where to begin with this problem. I've noticed recently that my PC will not power on until it's been plugged in for a while. It sounds crazy, but that's the best I can tell. After setting it up, I do everything in my power to make it turn on. After getting thoroughly...
Thanks, but I abandoned it. I'm not sure I should praise the person that wrote it as a genius or completely retarded. I'm writing a visual basic script to do what I want using excel. Make it more robust and more updatable, but thanks for your help.
it wasn't HIS sheet to begin with. I equate it to writing terribly unmanagable, undocumented, and generally piss poor code. Unacceptable.
or better yet, writing a class and then somehow hiding the header file so that no one can find the thing that makes it work. Just genreally bad practice.
unfortunately "calculations" isn't the name of a sheet in this file. So that theory, while a good one, doesn't seem to work out here.
edit: EUREKA! the idiot HID the sheet called calculations.
I'm trying to reverse engineer a former employees work to figure out what exactly he was doing to make an outdated tool up to date. I keep running across this type of function reference
=IF(calculations!B2,"",calculations!G2)
now I know what the IF does, but it's the "calculations!B2"...
part of my point is that it doens't matter how we're keepign track of it. My original question still goes mostly unanswered, the cool guy up top that gave me the php code is still the most help
I'm not trying to make an all powerful system here folks, it's just a fun little toy. As for why the data is not qutie there....well because we've only been keeping track for 2 weeks. Jon leaves work at around 3:30 so we can't play in the afternoons like we used to. We have a keg at work and a...
a few posts up I explained in greater detail. The front end is here: http://www.hciunderground.com/pool.php It's going to be expanded greatly as time goes on to allow for "custom" queries to be run by the user (they select the combinations, then we return the results). this is just been...
excuse me? You asked me to type more, I replied that I had already typed more. You replied AGAIN that I needed to type more at which time it became MORE than clear that you hadn't read the post where I VERY clearly stated all of this. Yet you are calling ME a douchebag? Grow up kid.
no no no, I have completely control over this system. This is only my coworker and I's personal nerdiness. you can find all of the data that we're dealing with here www.hciunderground.com/pool.php We're just a couple of nerds that have a pool table at work.
We are storing all of the...
Okay I have 7 different variables. Each of those variables have different set information that they can be.
ex. Time - lunch/afternoon/other or Day of Week - M/T/W/R/F
I'm trying to come up with a way to query a database that's holding all of this informatoin and figure out what...
Thanks man, it's been ages since I've had to consider buying hardware (years) I'm so lost as to what's come out I didn't even know where to begin. this helps
What I am trying to do is figure out how to make the text on a tab word wrap so it isn't taking up so much horizontal spacing. See the picture below for what I mean, you'll notice that I increased the size of the tabs in hopes that when I set the width of the tab it would automatically wrap...
I'm working on designing a small webpage for my senior project. I'm trying to make the color scheme strike everyone as something specific as soon as they look at it. I was hoping everyone could tell me the first thing they think of when they see the layout/color scheme of the page. I'm not...
alright now I"m getting some funky results from IE7 you can check it out here at http://www.hciunderground.com/MOSS I'm not really sure what to do at this point.
thanks,
Bryan
For those that are concerned thanks, I'm well aware that some browsers do a shitty shitty job of supporting css so the site will be equpped to handle. For now the menu items will be links to small pages that pretty much give the same options as the drop down menus will, eventually I'll be...
For some reason I can't figure out why the drop down list is being dispalyed horizontally as well, I want the top list to be displayed horizontally and the dropped down to be displayed vertically. You can see it at http://www.hciunderground.com/MOSS

It is not spyware or adware NOR is it a virus. Not only am I particularly anal about keeping my computer clean of such things I just reloaded on Firday. I ran a game then looked at the page file, the page file did not MOVE! however I noticed this on the CPU history..

I have a Sager 8890 from pctorque got it brand new #14 in line. The specs are:
Pentium 4 - 2.4ghz

Now as of late I noticed I've been having some general problems playing games and doing many things at once. I know that it probably isn't the...
As usual Iomn75 is here :p At any rate I was looking a the source for the page and I htink you may want to invest in some lists. It looks like you've got it pretty well handled now but I think lists might be worth looking into.
honestly database design is one of those things I think is hard to teach yourself. Coding isn't so bad because you have examples. Unless you are lucky enough to find someoen's project and get infer what they are doing you are kind of lost. I would suggest hitting up amazon and looking for a...
well first and foremost you have to purchase the domain name of yoru choice. for example my domain is hciunderground.com and my email is [email protected] Nxt you have to have a server setup. You could run it on yoru own computer but..honestly it's not that great of an idea. One...
