My license codes for these 2 PC games that I received as part of an NVidia 1070 bundle. Free to the first poster that requests it.

It seems like it wouldn't be that difficult, but I can not find this monitor with an IPS panel. Only ones I can find have VA panels. Anyone know of a mfg that makes this?

Must be LGA 1155 / Socket H2 mATX or ITX form-factor. I prefer the Z77 chipset and/or something geared to gamers and audiophiles. Would consider the right ITX board if it has great on-board sound (e.g. ASUS ROG) I can pay via PayPal.

WTB a CoolerMaster WaveMaster for a rebuild / mod project. Prefer an unmodded case but will entertain almost anything as long as the front panel is in good condition.

Does anyone know what the life span of LGA 1150 will be? Has Intel released any roadmaps (or 'leaked' presentations)? I bought my I5 750 (LGA 1156) when it was first released and was not too happy when they killed my upgrade path with 1155 a short time later. I want to assemble a new machine...

I'm looking to team with some friendly fellow [H] members. Anyone game?

I bought this game at launch and paid full price. I was angry at this release due to the launch bugs, drastic system specs, etc. But I decided to give it another shot (over 1.5 years later!!!) while waiting for Skyrim. I can honestly say I'm glad I did. This is a superb game. The...

Anyone play Arsenal of Democracy? I'm getting a stupid stacking penalty of -33% when I attack with a single Lt General commanding only 3 divisions (the exact amount he's supposed to be able to command). I'm not attacking with anything else. This was an experiment to prove to myself there is...

Hi all, I want to pull the trigger to get a 5850, but within the $320 or under range. This is my first non-EVGA / non-BFG card in years, so I'd like to make sure I go with a company that is *known* to have a good RMA process. Not that I expect the card to go out, but just in case, I want...

Hi all, here's what I have. Make an offer, let's work a deal! I will check back often. I have 100% ebay feedback, and I've bought & sold here before. I can give each item a non-DOA warranty. Parts were pulled from my workstation. Prefer PayPal but can do cash or check. Will discount for...

Hi all, I am an experienced .Net / web developer that has been tasked with writing a plug-in that can be used in Firefox, Safari, etc. I already have an ActiveX solution, so no worries about IE. Is there a good book for learning how to do this? I have looked through...

I paid for and installed Bioshock2 via Steam last night and I'm trying to play this morning. It is taking me through some SecureRom activation / unlock request code bullcrap. The automatic activation is failing. The manual activation is failing. I am NOT mistyping the serial numbers. This...

I don't know if it's my bad luck or game-review web sites that are over-hyping games, or game reviewers that are posting less-than-honest reviews of games because of some under the table advertising deal or what -- but I have been really disappointed in ALL three games that I've purchased...

Let me give you the quick version: Bought and assembled a Shutttle XP38Pro 2 SFF for my 9-year old. It died after 7 days. I returned it. Shuttle, 4GB Ram, 7800GTX, 2.4 Core 2 Duo. 640GB hard drive. Around $375ish Bought enough parts from Frys a week later and assembled a PC for him...

Not sure where to put this since it is most pertinent to SG06 builders: After my son's Shuttle died after just one week of service, I'm going to build a SFF based on the SG06. I know all the parts I'm going to get except for the slimline DVD burner. Anyone have ideas and/or links to the...

Maybe this will help someone at some point. My new AsusP7P55D motherboard was only reporting 2GB of the 4GB of ram that was installed. Motherboard: AsusP7P55D CPU: i5 750 RAM: Corsair XMS3 1600 -- Part# CMX4GX3M2A1600C9 1. Updated the BIOS 2. As per the manual, I set AI Overclock...

Hello, I purchased a Shuttle xPC SXP238 Pro and assembled it last weekend. I put in a known working e6600 and known working OCZ 2x2GB ram and a used (ala [H] FS/FT) 7800GTX. Thing has been working every day for exactly 1 week. Now it seems to have given up the ghost? Powers on, power...

Currently for sale. All prices include shipping. $60 Abit AW9D-Max - Socket 775 Motherboard. Comes with full retail box and packaging and all *unopened* accessories (locking SATA cables, ATI multi-gpu bridge, etc. Full disclosure -- 1 of the 2 network ports may be bad, but the remaining one...

Hi all, I'm looking to upgrade to the new i5 750 and I want to overclock. I'm looking for a good heatsink, but I'm lost as to what is compatible. Mobo is a Gigabyte P55M UD2. Everything I'm reading is related to socket 1366 or 755. Can anyone enlighten me? Is the socket so new that...

Hi all, please help me get the needed parts for my son's computer. It's for his 9th birthday and he LOVES playing Roblox online. He also wants to play Team Fortress 2 with his friends. Parts I still need: 1. Socket 775 micro ATX (mAtx) motherboard that is DDR2 compatible. Must be able...

Hi all, I have been an XP Pro 32-bit user for years and years and years. Last weekend I installed Windows 7 RC. Installation went great. I Installed several games from Steam. When I went to play, I had 1 that said 'unavailable'. I was able to play TF2, but it seemed a little 'off'. It...

Ok, I have been looking forward to the release of Hearts of Iron 3. I found this to be absolutely hilarious! I haven't lol'ed like this in some time. Totally worth 4 minutes of your time IMO...

WTB Socket 478 Mobo for 3.0 Ghz w/HT CPU. Also need reasonably fast (for the time) AGP card. mATX preferred, but will look at ATX. Not looking for all the bells and whistles, just a solid performer, little to no overclocking (with I/O backplate if possible). PM me with price & info and...

I've been listening to a few tracks from various games (Need for Speed and others). I was just wondering if you guys had some favorites? Be specific or provide links so others can enjoy :) The obvious Born Too Slow (The Crystal Method, off of Need for Speed) I also really dig the Hearts of...

I used to have this game for the Playstation and I read that it is available for the 360 for download / purchase. I (think) I joined XBox Live / Marketplace / Whatever with my free 30 day trial Gold card. How on earth do I go about finding this game? Thanks for answering what I feel should...

Hi all, My brother brought me his computer the other day and asked me to upgrade it. I'm keeping some parts (DVD/CD Rom burner, Antec Mid Tower) and putting in some parts that I already own (Antec TruePower 2.0 power supply, PCIe Graphics Card, SATA hard drive). Questions & Answers for the...

I made a post and thought I had quoted an earlier member's post, but didn't. Now my post doesn't make sense. I tried to Edit it using the 'edit' link (that I've used many times before). It's not there any longer. What's up?

GTA IV is the first GTA game I've played, and by jove, I really like it. I would say it is in fact the best $50 I've spent on a game in a long, long time. Probably the most enjoyable game since the Baldur's Gate series. And I've played games since my parents bought a Pong console (or whatever...

I bit the bullet and bought my first GTA game. I bought it off of Steam and I'm downloading now. I sure hope it doesn't end up being a steaming pile of horse pucky. At $50, Steam sure isn't saving me much other than a 1 mile drive to my local Best Buy. Not sure what I can do, but there's...

The Stalker difficulty even on Novice is seriously.. um.. what's a good word... F!@#D up Ok, so that's two words. I'm a fan of both games, but the difficulty of CS is just stupid. I've been playing FPS's since Castle Wolfenstein on a 486DX2, and nearly completed or tried every FPS...

Hi all, I've been eyeing the BlueRay drives and building myself an HTPC around it. I've replaced 3 DVD players in the past two years much to my dismay. I've bought supposed 'quality' from the likes of Samsung, Sony, and Toshiba, only to be p'od by all of them going bad (or just plain not...

Ok, I play a lot of TF2 and I thought this video was hilarious! http://www.shacknews.com/featuredarticle.x?id=695#ignis

Hi all hope this is the right forum. I recently upgraded to a Q6600 from Fry's. I'm running 4x1 GB OCZ Plat Rev 2 DDR2 800, and an Abit AW9D-Max motherboard with most recent BIOS. My system has been rock solid since I bought it about 6 months ago -- until now. Now that the Q6600 is in, I get...

That's it, I'm sick of computers. I will no longer build any computers, so please, buy this stuff. I'm selling in LOTS, so no parting out of lots (unless I choose to later). While everything is negotiable, this is priced to move. PayPal or cash only please. Also must be willing to give a...

Hi all, I'm looking to join my fellow [H] members for some TF2 goodness. Is there an official clan / group / whatever? I thought I had read a few years back there was such a group for other games. I'm not looking to join a competitive clan, but I would like to know I'm online with my fellow...

Hi there, I just picked up Crysis for the PC on DVD. I put it in my Samsung DVD drive and it just sits there and makes funny noises and the light blinks constantly. Really screws with Windows too -- Explorer locks up and I can't browse anything. I made sure my drive is up-to-date with the...

Hi all, please forgive me if this is in the wrong forum. Can I run SLI on my Abit AW9D-Max motherboard? I have an 8800GTS card and want to get another for Crysis

Hi all, Can anyone recommend a specific brand of serial cable? I am using the ones that came with my drives and they are loose. One of them is so bad that it came loose when I moved my PC, thus degrading the RAID 1, and now the darn thing is going to take the next 6+ hours rebuilding. Not...
