I've been using an Asus VW246H monitor for about eight months and snagged another last week while it was on sale. I have the two side by side and have noticed there is a considerable difference in appearance between the two. Both monitors have been reset to factory settings through the OSD...

I just put together a new rig yesterday, specs as follows: Intel i7-2600K Asus Asus p8z68-v pro EVGA Geforce GTX 560 Ti 2 x 4 GB Corsair XMS3 DDR1600 Corsair TX850 Crucial M4 64GB Western Digital Caviar Black Edition 1TB 7200RPM/6GBSATA LG DVD-RW Corsair 400R Case When I hit the...

I am this (|----|) close to pulling the trigger and driving to Microcenter today to buy all the parts I need to build a new PC. The only thing that's hanging me up is the impending release of Bulldozer and Sandy Bridge-E. I have my sights set on the i5-2500K which I can get from MC for $180. I...

My dad is looking to compliment a home theater setup at our summer house that we rent out with a PS3, mostly because of its Blu-ray capabilities. The guy doesn't like to pay sales tax or shipping so he sent me to the internet to find him a deal. Anyone got any suggestions?

I've been using the same rig that I put together for about three years now and it's been in pretty good condition besides a few setbacks. A little over a year ago I screwed something up and was left with only one stick of 512 DDR where I used to have two. My specs are: MSI K8N Neo Platinum...

My dad bought a 27" Panasonic HDTV (4:3, don't ask) a few years ago and I've noticed that even though it says it supports either 480p or 1080i, the 1080i image is stretched and cropped. When running our digital cable receiver into the TV's HD component inputs, the image at the top looks normal...

I have saved up $400+ for an Xbox 360, and I would be good to go except for these stupid rumors about a PGR3 bundle in August. Some sources say August, some say Xmas, and all will concede that it is only a rumor. How much validity would you guys say this rumor actually has?

I'm trying to weigh the pro's and con's of paying sales tax vs. shipping. I was also waiting for the overstock deal but it looks like it's through. Where should I get one?

I am seriously considering buying a 360 in the very near future, but I'm not sure what games to get. One game that I absolutely must have is GRAW, and I am considering PD0 but I'm not sure. I also wanted to get NCAA 07 but I'm hearing a lot of crap about it that's really turning me off. I'm...

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,CRID=2166,CONTENTID=11868 It's going to retail for $70 . . . that's how much Newegg is selling the G15 for. How much do you think they'll start selling the G11 for?

I'm making a little bit of money this summer before I go away to college and I'm having some trouble deciding what to do with it. On one hand, I've been having some trouble with my PC (long story short I only have 512 MB of RAM now and to fix it I would have to buy a new motherboard) and I need...

My speakers are only analog, does that mean I won't be able to get true surround sound with the Xbox 360?

I while ago I posted a whole bunch of threads all over this board about problems I was having with my motherboard and RAM. Lot's of troubleshooting and some new hardware later I'm no closer to solving my problem. People having similar problems with my same mobo (MSI K8N Neo Platinum) almost...

I've been rocking a 350w Antec PSU that came with my case for about two years and it had a good run but it's starting to scare me. I've run into a whole bunch of memory and motherboard problems in the past few months and before I go out and buy a new motherboard I want to make sure that my PSU...

First off I just want to say that this thing sounds AWESOME. I was skeptical about the hype and was kind of worried that my speakers wouldn't be able to take full advantage of them (Logitech Z-5300's). Anyway, on to my questions. I've read a bunch of reviews and understand that the X-Fi...

How do I go about cleaning the Audigy's drivers? I hear that just doing so from add/remove programs doesn't complete the task

My MSI K8N Neo Platinum has overstayed its welcome, and RMA's and refurb's aren't doing me any good. I need to buy a NEW socket 754 with a decent chipset. I wouldn't like to pay more than $70.

I just rebought my same mobo because of two memory slots functioning improperly on my old one. Got the new one in the mail today and right off the bat I started to disassemble my computer. Everything was going fine until I got to the processor. I delatched the HSF and started to twist it back...

I'm swapping my motherboard later tonight and I figured I would clean up my case while I was at it. What tactics to people use to keep their cases neat and tidy?

http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?pfp=SEARCH&product_code=333984&pfp=srch1 I just ordered one, offer is good until tomorrow.

I'm dying to get a Logitech G5 and G15 and I'm astounded by how cheap the refurb's are on ebay. Should I take the plunge or just be safe and buy brand new...

I'm planning on getting an Xbox 360 (or a PS3) sometime during the next year while I'm off at college. VGA boxes usually produce subpar image quality and I've seen the 360 really shine on an HDTV. Is there anyway to reproduce this quality on my monitor?

I have a set of Logitech Z-5300's and never had to set them up in my room at home until now. At first I just set up all five speakers in front of me but I figured it was a waste of money if I wasn't utilizing the 5.1. I have tried placing the speakers behind me on top of boxes and it's working...

I have a Sound Blaster Audigy and Logitech Z-5300's. I know that neither of those components are top-notch pieces of electronics, which is why I'm wondering if I'll notice a substantial difference if I swap the Audigy for an X-Fi. I know my speakers won't be able to take full advantage of the...

I'm sending my motherboard back to it's manufacturer in California this Monday for an RMA and I have all of the original packaging that it came in except for the ESD bag. I looked through all the boxes in my closet and went to a whole bunch of stores (Staples, Kinkos, and a shipping outlet) and...

Two and a half years ago I got the Logitech MX Duo for Christmas (Wireless Elite Keyboard and MX700). They had a decent run, but they've always kind of bugged me with some noticeable lag and the batteries are a pain. I'd like to replace them with something nice, and I'm not ruling wireless out...

Tomorrow I'm sending my MSI K8N Neo Platinum back to MSI in California after having it for two years. I've never RMA'd anything before so does anyone have any pointers or words of wisdom? Also how long should I expect to wait between shipping it off and getting it back?

Two years ago I put together a pimp rig (1GB PC3200 DDR, Athlon 64 3200+, Geforce 6800 GT, the works) and up until now it has given me no problems. Now two of the memory slots on the motherboard have given out, leaving me with only 512MB of RAM. I've finally allowed myself to realize that the...

Post here. Screw all those new GPU's, the 6800 GT is where it's at.

A few months ago I tinkered with my RAM and as a result I'm only running half the amount of RAM I was. I have an MSI K8N Neo Platinum with two sticks of Crucial DDR400 512 MB, and three RAM slots on the motherboard. After tinkering I turned on my computer and the mobo beeped with no other...
