I'm relatively seasoned in shopping and building standard desktop-based machines (aka: i7) but I'm in the market to build my very first proper server and was hoping for a little help. I currently run a single machine that is both my daily workstation as well as my media+document storage/plex...
Hey guys,

Up until yesterday I was using 2x 24" monitors running off of a Radeon 4870 and everything was running fine. This morning I installed a second video card that I've had sitting in the closet which was an Radeon x800. I know this card has had driver issues with w7 due to it being legacy now but...
So I have a desktop that has been working fine for a good 9+ months with no complains. The other day the fan on my HSF died so I swapped it with the stock one that came with my processor. Ever since then something has been screwey with my desktop.

So heres the deal. I've been watching the forums for a while now and see lots of mixed opinions. So i figured I'd make my own thread and say specifically what I'm looking for and see if there are any choices that seems like the best. Yes I know there are a ton of these threads and I apologize...
So I currently have 3x19" LCD's which I'm looking to upgrade to 2x24" (taking suggestions on those too) and would like to potentially put them up on arms. I'll be freeing up some desk space switching back to 2 and would like to maybe even free up some more if possible.

I'm looking to do a large upgrade when I get back from CES next week and wanted to make sure it all looked pretty good and worth the money since its currently around $1,300 of parts. Here is what I'm lookin at:

So long story short, I have an Abit IP35 motherboard which, when you boot up, normally gets about 5 second into booting, then shuts down, then fully boots up. I'm not sure why but thats just how it works. The other day I returned to my apartment after being away for a while for the holidays and...

So I realize this may be a dumb question but I figured its worth a try. I run my dual LCD setup at 1280x1024, however, many of the older games I play don't support that resolution so in order to maintain all my AIM/winamp etc windows on my second monitor i just play them windowed. However, my...
So long story short I fried my mobo a bit ago and replaced it with an MSI P965 Neo and unless I'm just missing some sort of major bios update, this thing is a piece of trash and I've had nothing but problems. So my plan is to return in and get a new one but I'm lookin for some suggestions. Heres...
