    Micron C400 Benchmarks!!!!

    Seeing as how I was planning to use SATA III, my choices are Intel 510, Crucial C400, and OCZ Vertex 3. I didn't want to go with Vertex because of OCZ's horrible reliability and shady service. Intel 510 seemed to be a failure if all the reviews are to be believed, though I'm pretty sure that...

    Any information on Samsung S27A750 and S27A950?

    I was wondering if anyone knows of any price speculations or release date for Samsung's new S27A750/S23A750 and S27A950/S23A950? I've heard their both suppose to be top of the line 3d monitors, but I'm not going to wait for them if the 23" versions are over $400. Do any of you have any...

    GTX 590 Teaser vs GTX 580 AVP only video

    So I'm assuming this is official? The 590 is trumped by the 6990, but 2x 580s in SLI trump both? I'm trying to decide between going 2x 580s or a single 590 tomorrow. I just want to be 100% sure I'm not screwing myself with this decision. I'd be running 1 monitor at 1920x1080, it's a 3D monitor...

    Micron C400 Benchmarks!!!!

    Since I'm building a new system mainly for gaming, and that If I ever do download or save big files in my Spinpoint 1 TB drive, than the SSD that I'd be using to install Windows and my primary games should have better Seq Speeds than Random Reads?

    Hey everyone, I'm a bit concerned about the compatibility with my Case and Motherboard. I'm about to order the case off Amazon and the Motherboard from NewEgg when its available. From what I understand the RV02-E doesn't support E-ATX Motherboards, however, in the specs on Silverstone's...

    Intel's new SSD 510 series using Marvell controller ?

The board I'll be buying is a ASUS Maximus IV, it has 2 SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. So, I was hoping to take advantage of a new Intel 510 Drive, but the reviews have been...

    Files deleted from Hard Drive before Windows Boot?

    Hey guys, earlier today when I turned on my computer, before it reached the loading screen for Vista a DOS like typing popped on the screen, stating it was checking files for corruption or something. It started doing a index check and deleted random files. It went by too fast, but I think...

    High-End Gaming System

    Oh, I think he will. He said I can build a computer like my first one... I spent $6,000 on my first computer. Secondly my "benefactor" (Father), is a computer enthusiast like me, so he enjoys building computers as much as I do. He's actually really happy with the amount of money I'm spending...

    High-End Gaming System

    I was actually convinced earlier in the thread to overclock, so I will need a board to be able to handle that well. As for the PSU, right now the Antec TruePower and the XFX are the same price after the XFX's 30 Rebate. Besides that, I find the XFX far more aesthetically pleasing. Worth...

    High-End Gaming System

    I'm not worried about the price, but if its over 350 I'll be going to Vertex 3 or 2 depending on the prices once again. However, what would be a step down from that mother board? The ASUS P8P67 Deluxe?

    High-End Gaming System

    Me Again, I'm sure I've made the final changes to my build now. The SSD is speculation because I have no idea if the rumors about a 120GB being $280 is true. But everything else should be final. I actually got the Razer Headset for only 20 dollars, I just traded my Logitech G5 Headset for it and...

    Hey everyone, I need a new wireless printer, preferably no more than $100 Dollars. I have/had an HP Photosmart C4385 All-in-One Printer and while the quality and speed were pretty good, for the third time, the ink decided to explode in the system, and its too old to be covered by Warranty...
