Sold Have a i5-12400F i purchased last year thinking I was going to build a nice general purpose system with. Never got around to that. Box has been opened and CPU was run in my Z690 board for a few hours before swapping back to my other 12th gen CPU. Runs fine. Still in retail packging with...

Wanted to do a sanity check with everyone here. Trying to discern if I'm a dumbass for buying used SAS drives for my home NAS. Between the absurd price of new NAS drives and the recent SMR drama, I wound up buying 8pc of HUS726060ALS640 from an ebay seller. These are recycled / refurbished...

I'm pretty out of the loop on video cards anymore. Although my aging 7970 has stood in quite well for the past 4 yeras, I have no interest in returning to AMD anymore. But, at this point, I don't know if I should aim high (1080) or midrange (1070 / 1060). I primarily game @ 2560 x 1440 @ 85Hz...

I'm preparing to make the transition to ZFS very soon and I'm still mulling over how I would like to approach this. Ideally I would like to host my ZFS server within ESXi using PCI-passthrough of my H310/9211 HBA. I just rebuilt my server with a xeon 1246 V3 and a supermicro X10SLL-F...

So, I've got some hardware on my hands and some of it is collecting dust. My day to day rig for a while now has been an 1155 based core-i5 system...It's plenty fast for a good bit of what I do at 4.6GHz. But, I've recently come to regret not having VT-d. Since I have two aging HEDT base...

All, I've lots other gear to sell. But these are items I want out of my space ASAP. The 34UM94 is practically brand new. I used it for about 3 weeks. I just didn't enjoy ultrawide as much as I thought I would. As well, I didn't really enjoy IPS glow on that large of a screen. It's IPS glow...

So, I've spent the last year buying and trying a couple new displays. A 34UM95 which i only used for about 3 weeks before becoming bored with. And my Yamakasi Catleap that I just recently discovered doesn't like to display moving 3D dark scenes in Stalker games without spewing red line aritfacts...

Have a Radeon 7970 and have a 3440x1440 21:9 monitor coming. 7970 is already too loud and too slow for a handful of things I throw at it with 2560x1440 resolution. However, I'm not convinced 780TI / 980 would be a big jump in FPS. I've been eyeballing the 980 STRIX cards. I noticed in ASUS's...

So, I've been having cold-boot issues with my x58 classified motherboard (Code 25). I originally thought I remedied the issue with a thorough BIOS flash procedure. Unfortunately, I found out days later that the fix was just coincidental. I have a new rule/theory to go on and it makes the most...

If my title doesn't elude to my ignorance, this should. I only just heard of an A-TW polarizer yesterday. Just bought a 27" Catleap. And while I'm very happy with the display, the IPS glow is a little strong. I could probably get used to it. But if I can do something to fix it, that would be...

I just bought a used EK waterblock for my E760 motherboard and I'm going to need to source some thermal interface pads. Since it's such a long unit, i'm leery of just using thermal paste, as there is likely to be some gaps on the VRM's and what not. I have a small bit of alpha-gel silicone...

I've gotten to the point where my media is stored across too many systems as well has having a ton of personal data with redudancy being provided by external USB HDD's. It's gotten untenable and I need to beef things up a bit. I was hoping to run ESXi for 2-3 VM's now and potentially more later...

So, we're working with a consultancy which is proposing we install a SonicWall primary firewall ($700) and an untangle firewall ($700) which will both be daisy chained on our incoming internet connection. So I'm told, they "offer double layered protection." To me just looks like they wanted...

According to camelcamelcamel, $77.81 is a all-time low retail price for this cable modem. I'm in for one, because I'm tired of paying TWC $6 a month rent for an obsolete POS...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815706001 See promo code. I know a few guys missed this deal the last time it was at this price.

Didn't think this warranted a main H.D. posting, since there's only one available. But, it's been at this reduced price for weeks now, and no one's gotten it. Figured I should point it out. It's an in-store deal only. if it shows up out of stock, change your favorite store to "Central Ohio"...

Hello all, My current HTPC is just a recommissioned C2D gaming rig with an 8800GTX... I'm looking to upgrade to something that uses less power, and would have native HDMI video and HDMI audio. I'm hoping a native HDMI card would resolve issues I'm having currently. My TV is a hand-me down I...

Just wanted to post something for pure discussion, and see what others think. TL:DR The TL;DR question would be.... What if you could buy a GFX card void of a pre-supplied cooling solution and I/O ports? Just a pure stripped down graphics processor board with: -No manufacture applied cooling...

Nice card here. As close to mint condition as you find for a card not still wrapped from the factory. 3GB Vram. Already upgraded to v1.1 firmware. Comes in retail box with all factory accessories. Priced to move at $450 shipped to your door. EDIT: Whoops. Wrote 2011 on the card---Guess I...

My N1 is is great shape. No scratches/cracks on the screen. No problems with touch screen calibration. Two or three of very tiny dings in the soft-touch paint on the back. Been wearing a ruberized back cover and screen protector almost since day one. Phone is rooted & unlocked with clockwork...

So, I've been playing Stalker Call of Pripyat on master difficulty with the CoP Complete mod for a week or so now. I'm a die-hard stalker lover, with hundreds of hours of play time racked up. Pretty much the only game series I can play and re-play over and over... The issue is, I'm quite...

Looks like two 12v (yellow) wires burned somehow. Computer was running fine last night, and for the past few months on end. Went to boot up this morning, and it was a no go. Investigating, I found what you can see in the pics above. (sorry for the blur. It's in a dark corner and my camera...

Hello all, I'm putting up my two 5870 E6 cards today. I bought them the same week the cards hit the retail shelves. (Which IIRC, was back in March) I ran these cards in a crossfire configuration, in the system you see in my sig. My guesstimate is that I probably put about 300 hours of run time...

So I'm making considerations for some system changes involving GTX480 in SLI using the system in my sig. The situation may require me to go to dual-ed power supplies (Actually, only if I decide to add an 8800 card for physX) The problem I've read about is that 'crossloading' a power supply is a...

Totally not meant to be a serious thread. I'm just curious how many people share the same opinion as me about the gawdy stickers a lot of AIB's put on their video card heatsinks. IMO, I think the XFX stickers are passable on the 5xxx series and that the ones on the HIS and Sapphire cards really...

SOLD LOCALLY TO bucd. Thanks!

EDIT. Never mind. It was a simple oversight. Can't believe it took me this long to figure it out :o Mods, please feel free to delete this useless thread.

So, I'm getting ready to put together my first CPU water cooling loop. I have everything I need on hand except some clamps and a reservoir. I held off on the reservoir knowing that I can just run a t-Line. However, I had another idea creep into my head.... Using a 5 gallon bucket for a...

Time to put up my GTX280. It has been a good card since I bought it new just over 14 months ago. Not a super overclocker. But, it spent 99% of it's life running at 648MHz core and 1302MHz mem. It could do better if it didn't have the stock cooler. To compensate for the extra heat of...

With crossfire and eyefinity having a hard time coexisting, would it be possible to use a single card to drive a single monitor? This would mean, if I want to do a 3x1 monitor config, I would simply buy 3x 5870's and NOT put them in tri-crossfire. Just have one card drive each monitor. Perhaps...

I've been out of console gaming for a long while. And this years madden looks like something fun...and since they aren't going to bring it back to PC, I'm thinking about buying a console. I know the main differences between the consoles, and based on features alone, I would choose the PS3...

No longer here

Reinstalled 180.43. Now, I get 0mhz core/mem. Riva Tuner and nTune can not detect clocks. Anyone know what's up?

I have a combo home-theater / gaming room with HD satellite TV and my PC listed below. Since my 24" monitor's VGA port just died, I was looking at this sony XBR 37", thinking that would make a nice upgrade. http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/productDetail.do?oid=215618 They also have a 32" of...

I did a quick search for this here, and didn't turn up anything. So here I go. I decided to finally upgrade from my 2 year old 8800GTS. I was looking forward to returning to ATI, and supporting the "little" guy by scratching my upgrade itch. Unfortunately, two games I wish to play very much...

http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0256694 Just showed up in my email. For those of you still on DDR1, this is pretty cheap.

So, I just got done doing a modest build for my Brother's family. I used a GA-MA78G-S2H mobo, which has the 780G chipset (HD3200 on board video, set to 256MB vram in bios) After setting up the system, I decided to play a DVD video back (There Will Be Blood) at 1920x1200 pixels in VLC media...
