    Looking for a solid, compact NAS solution for home.

    I don't need a lot, like 4 or 5 bays. RAID optional, I don't mind just JBODing. Performance isn't a big deal. I just need a storage dump on my LAN in a form factor that isn't going to take up room in my already cluttered house. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Need advice for WC components for new 900D build.

    Hey all. Working on a new build. The only watercooling components I have so far are three EVGA Titan Hydrocoppers. Other than that, I'm still trying to decide how I want to do things. Here's my thinking so far: I've got a Rampage IV Extreme. I'm not even sure if I want to water cool it. It...

    Want a sanity check on this build.

    Sup gents. I've built like a trillion systems over the years but I like to put my builds out there to get a little criticism before I push the big red button. There can always be something you've missed. So let's get to it then. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web...

I will have a Wii game bundle and possibly some hardware coming up for sale soon as well. Proceeds will go to keeping a roof over my head and my Internet access turned on. Also I could use...

    Retailer Specific Pre-Order Bonuses

    Can anyone explain to me what the developer or publisher get out of this? I understand the obvious bonus for the retailers, but I don't get why publishers are all up in this scam. Do the retailers just straight pay them for it?

    Replacing a Dell 2408.

    Hey gents. I'm looking to replace my Dell 2408. It's gotten some strange vertical green and yellow lines that appear when it is turned on. They go away after some time but they've stayed around longer and there are 4 or 5 of them now instead of just one. What I'm looking for: 1080 or 1200...

    Switches for case lights.

    So, I need a couple switches to turn cathodes on and off. I'm not really sure what the cheap option is that doesn't require me to solder things or drill holes. Ideally here's what I would like, though I understand if there's no perfect solution: 5.25" Bay. 2+ On/Off Switches (no rheostat or 3...

    ~$250 Headphones to pair with Essence ST

    I searched a few threads but everyone seems to aim for the $100 mark for headphones. Couldn't find much on the $200-300 range. I will be pairing them up with an Essence ST, which of course has a reasonable headphone amp. Any suggestions are welcome, though I prefer an open set of cans to a...

    Silverstone Raven RV02 Cylon Mod

    Okay so I just ordered an RV02, and those blue LEDs have to go. I can simply unhook them, or I can do something significantly more awesome! I'm sure most of you are familiar with the Cylon Centurion and Raider from the BSG reboot. The little red eyeball can scan back and forth, and...

    Sound Deadening Materials

    So I'm getting a Corsair 600T as soon as they drop and it has mesh on the front cover. I'm not a real big fan of a lot of extra venting where there isn't a fan. It usually doesn't harm temperatures too much to block it off, and it helps quiet things down a bit especially in a noisy rig. I...

    EVGA Classified SR-2 1200W PSU

    http://www.evga.com/articles/00564/ It appears to be the same Enhance platform as the Antec TPQ-1200, with a few tweaks, and a sizable markup. Not sure what to make of this, but it seems pretty spendy for what you get.

    Tips on removing stuck sidepanel?

    Okay, so I bought a Storm Sniper for my new rig. The left sidepanel was a little rough when I first got the case, but i figured it would ease up after a few offs and ons. Now I can't open it at all. It feels like I've still got screws in it. I've dealt with a lot of cases over the years but none...

    Strange Windows 7 Behavior

    So I put together this new machine and installed Windows 7 Professional, punched in my key, and all that. It wouldn't activate, but I figured that was because I needed to call MS and have them reset my activation due to the new hardware and such. Well, I hadn't gotten around to it yet. Their...

    Removing a fan with stuck screws.

    I just got in a new case, and I wanted to rotate the rear 120mm fan so that the fan header could be more easily routed. I noticed that the bottom two fan screws couldn't be fully removed. They'd come out to a point and then just spin. I tried yanking them out with no success. I can screw them...

    Making sure I'm on target with my estimates.

    I'm in the process of putting together a new machine right now. The main power suckers are the i7 930 and a pair of GTX 460s. I don't have an absurd number of hard drives, probably 3 or 4 will be in this box. Before I push the button on this 750w XFX Black Edition combo that Danny Bui...

    Looking to shave about $200 off this build.

    Hey guys. For consistency sake, I will fill out the form from the sticky, despite having a build already in mind. I just like to get outside perspective on my builds since I'm really good at rationalizing bad purchase decisions to myself. I only build a new rig once every 2-2.5 years so I like...

    P55 SLI & USB 3.0

    I'm putting together a new rig with GTX 460s in SLI. Currently aiming for a Core i5 750. The idea is to get maximum gaming performance without wasting money on the usual "traps" designed to nickle and dime you for things that don't significantly increase gaming performance. Anyhow, after...

    What's the latest on a product refresh?

    Last I heard was a 2H10 target release, but I saw some supposed roadmaps a while back that showed it being in the first half of next year. I'm currently debating whether to replace the rig in my sig in September, or in March. Would I be stupid to do something like purchase a 5850 in September?

    Looking for a little outside advice.

    So first things first. Current rig in sig, with the exception of my E8400 sitting at 3.6GHz currently. I only upgrade my rig every now and then, and usually just end up replacing everything. I pondering upgrading the video card back in December, but decided against it. Wisely, I might add...

    Upgrade or not?

    Alright so I've currently got a 9800 GTX. It's always been a bit flaky and unstable, and I meant to do an EVGA step-up to something better but I procrastinated and it expired long ago. It works fine if I crank the fan up to 90% and turn my A/C on. For some reason it just freaks out if it hits...

    Linksys WRT54GL + Crossover cable?

    *grumble* Any legit way to get a Vista + SP1 DVD without buying another license?

    So after finding no reliable way to slipstream SP1 to my Vista Business DVD, I'm at a loss for how to get an SP1 integrated disk without paying for another license (I already own a legitimate license.) or some ridiculous TechNet or MSDN subscription. Anyone have any tips or ideas?

    Anyone with a GX2 wanna give me the run down on the LEDs?

    Couldn't find a manual to download that had the information, but I was curious what all the LEDs indicated on the GX2. The [H] review wasn't clear beyond the two power connector LEDs what the rest of them indicated.

    Intel! (Time for the waiting game.)

    Well, Intel AND Nvidia/ATI, really. Currently using an Opteron @ 2.7GHz and a 7800 GTX 256MB. I've decided to wait for Nehalem (and the next iteration of Nvidia or ATI video cards) to do my new build. The upside is I will have more cash saved by then. So, I broke down and replaced the dying...

    Why is it there are people so deadset on getting DDR3 that they'll ask for advice and just completely disregard any and all facts you throw at them and get DDR3 anyway. Now other than the 790i chipset, where you don't really have any other solution to a top-notch SLI board (even then...
