Thank you for your help. I greatly appreciate all your help danny bui. The last thing I would like to ask is:

Very true and the fact that a full pci-e video card gets in the way of some of the harddrive bays on the 900. You can't tell since I have removed the video card and put it in the 690.
So I just wanted to state that danny bui is the man he has helped me out on over 4 builds and all have been solid.
My most recent is a rebuild from a downed computer(that wasn't getting any beep codes). He helped me find a nice and cheap cpu/mobo/ram deal and they are working perfectly...
Thank you for all of your help with this! Since I do want to keep the pc up and running (as a server or htpc later) I am willing to replace ram, cpu, mobo.
I do plan to build a sandy bridge (high end pc) in a few months so this is just to keep me held over for now and then turn it into a...
Thank you very much for the welcome back.
I know this sounds lame, but I don't really feel like troubleshooting since I don't have a lot of extra parts. If you could help me pick out a nice mobo that would be greatly appreciated. :D
So I just got back from a deployment and found my computer doesn't boot. The computer will not post and the lights (from my antec 900) on my fans just blink even though they are spinning. My motherboard's 6 lights are all light and blinking and 3 of the 4 lights on my 4870 are lit up. I bought a...
So I built my roommate a computer six months ago before I went to Iraq. As I was gone he said the computer stop reading the display drivers for the vga port and dvi port, but the HDMI still works.
I was thinking of removing drivers and reinstalling newer ones, but if the vga/dvi doesn't work...

This is just my opinion, but if you want an all-in-one set I would just go:
GameCom 377

or
GameCom 367

Computer runs amazingly. I am actually using it right now. It runs Heroes of Newerth well and does pretty much everything. The only question I have is why does system say I only have 3.75 gigs of ram usable?
overpriced RAM.... That is the cheapest in 1333 for 2x2gb besides the crucial for 99.

3. my parents live in California
6. No
7.19" lcd

Sorry for not putting it in the...
So I want to build a computer for my parents since their last one is a p4. I looked at parts and build them something that is going to run down right amazing for them. All they really do is surf the net, but my little brother is getting into games so I want something that can do a little gaming...
I picked up and i7 D0 in january at a MC in california. It has been sitting on my desk since. Now I am deploying for 6 months and it is just going to sit around. If you are interested post here or pm.
Edit: will post pics when I get home from work.
Double post.
What is good about udac?
Edit: I was looking at the udac and I like the idea. Would I just use them during just muusic usage.
Would getting a nuforce icon be a good match with the udac.
I listen to music and paly games both audio going through the headphones. I will look into the xfi even though I care for the music quality over game audio. I mainly listen to di.fm or cds/mixes.
Thank you guys for the help. What information would help.
I guess I didn't. I was wondering if I should go with a soundcard upgrade or just get a dac and/or amp? What will I get better quality out of? Does it even matter with the headphones I own? Are there any good third party drivers for the cards you mentioned(thanks I will look into them)? Is there...
Hey guys I know you get these questions all the time, but am really getting into the audio scene. Right now I am using integrated sound on my mb realtek 889A with hd555 and soon to be dt770pro-80. I reviewed Arkangyl's "big audio post" and decided to upgrade to a dedicated soundcard before going...
Thanks man. But I was wondering if I would get a better quality if I got a dac and/or amp. Right now I am just using onboard hd audio. Again I have hd555 and dt770pro-80(soon).
I just bought these in guitar center for 169 but they charged me 14$ for tax :(
I am just wondering if I need a DAC or Amp to make my music sound better. (I am using them for the same usage as OP but I am listening to dubstep)
So a friend of mine bought new computer parts and got some ram from fry's. The timings on the ram need to be set to 8-8-8-24 1.65v, but I am not sure how to read his mobo's ram page. Below is an image of what his looks like, but that is not his I just found that online and the mobo and ram are...
Just hooked mine up. It looks a little better than my crt. Also I didn't realize how big 24" monitors are I mean DAMN!!!
So far I love it.
I almost went with 26, but I think that would of been too big.
I tried two different power supplies and still nothing. The only other thing I can think of is a different HD but I didnt have one nor an OS with me. : \
So I a buddy of mine has this compaq that wont boot. All it does is show the setup screen then it loops. I tried removing the ram and removing the cmos battery. I even tried switching to the on-board video. In the setup it still shows the cpu/ram/hd.
(Ithink it might be a powersupply issue)...
I think it is extremely funny how Main states a question then just fights everyone. Even when he created the thread which gives you reason that he would give back up information when trying to prove a point. Instead he just calls everyone fan boys or girls(insulting people trying to help you?)...
A buddy of mine has just put a computer together and the board is an ASUS M3A76-CM with a AMD 7850be. The core speeds jumps from 1406mHz with a x7 multiplier to a 2812mHz with a x14 multiplier is this just an idle speed for it why is the multiplier change just randomly with nothing being done on...
