Finally getting around to putting together a new build (come on Ryzen reviews :)) and have always wanted to do a custom WC loop. My plan is to just water cool the CPU for now, but want to leave room to possibly add another radiator for the GPU in a year or two. Doing this for both performance...
Hi All,
With my work schedule finally coming back to reality, I'm getting back into gaming again. I mostly play MMOs (STO until Elder Scrolls Online or something else comes out) and the occasional game of Company of Heroes, but will play more once CoH 2 is released. Right now, I've got the...
OK, it has been a while since I have done anything to my computer. 2 years I believe. I feel its time to finally do a refresh, but I have been out of the loop for so long I have lost track of what hardware is the direction to go. Here is a list of what I am thinking:
1. Obviously, want to...
Hello All,
I have been working on an excel data file that is exported from database. The problem is, the file lists numbers in the format that looks like this:
' ######### (apostrophe, five spaces, then a bunch of numbers)
However, to run a comparison with another data sheet, I...

The results of the poll about how many AGP and PCI-E users there are. Got me to wondering how many with AGP will upgrade their vid card before they upgrade to PCI-E. Thus, we have this pole.
My vote goes for a full PCI-E upgrade, since I just got the 6800GT and I am planning on doing a...

I didnt see a post on this yet so I thought I would start one.
I read the review, and am interested about this comment on Battlefield 2:
"The GeForce 6800 Ultra did not fair too well in this game. We were barely able to play at 1280x960 with 2XAA"
I have to disagree with this statement...
Hell all,
Just went through the computer parts I have and found a few things I am willing to part with (note: all prices include shipping):
(SOLD)1. BBA 9700 Pro. 128 mb Rev A00. Have had this card in my computer for two years. Overclocked for a short time after I had gotten it but...
Hi all,

P4C 3ghz 478 800mhz FSB
Asus P4C800 Deluxe (not E)
Enermax PSU (believe its rated at 430)
1 gig Corsair XMS...
Hello all,
Got a question. I recently bought a Lian Li PC65 and have been considering putting in a water cooling system for the CPU and GPU (maybe chipset if wc system that fits conditions would allow it). However, I have two conditions on which I want to place on a water cooling solution...
Title pretty much says it all, but I feel I should explain the situation. A buddy of mine has a MB that requires 2X 232 pin RDRAM RIMMs. He hopes to find PC1066-512Mb stick. However, several searchs (pricegrabber, google, pricewatch, newegg, zipzoom) have resulted with few options. What I was...
IT hought you guys would find this interesting. just noticed on the front page that the BFG ad was showing that BFG will start shipping Farcry with the 6800 OC. So, i clicked the link and also saw that BFG has started using their own cooling solutions. I am starting to think that once the GTs...
I was just looking on PCP&C website and stumbled across THIS . What exactly is the advantage of the 510 express????
edit- I just clicked on the diagram button at the bottom of the device and it has 24 pin connector and PCI-E connectors. I bet this is the PSU Destonomos had received the...
I have recently been looking into building my own computer over the next year piece by piece (i.e. buy a case this month, PSU next month, Vid card next, etc.) and have seen some things refer to BTX. What is BTX??? Is it something I should think about when I buy my case (I plan on keeping the...
I plan on building my own computer over the next few months/year that will be what I like to call a project computer (one in which parts will be changing as tech changes and what I can buy/afford at certain times, making it a hobby). However, there are some things I want to have that I wont...
I just looked at the back of my local Best Buy ad and lo an behold they have the BFG Ultra OC advertised for $399. I dont know if this is a mistake or whether this is reflecting future prices...I think i might go to Best Buy today and see if this is for real!!
Zero
edit: I just looked at...
I posted this in general hardware but am now getting the feeling it could be a vid card problem so Ill post it here too......

Hey All,
Here's the story. I Played BF1942 a lot a while back, to be specific a little while when patch 1.6 was out, but then unistalled so it wouldnt be a distraction during my studies. After some time I decided to reinstall it and then the problems began. After I had finished installing...
