ok I guess I'm easy, just bought a new mac mini from B&H Photo: dual-core Intel Core i5 2.6GHz (Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz), 8GB RAM, 1TB Hard Drive, Intel Iris Graphics, Mac OS X Yosemite No sales tax, free 3-day ship (unlike Newegg "smartpost") and free copy of Parallels 10. My wife & I are...

Yes! Any suggestions on where to find one (besides Ebay)?

Thanks guys. Right understood on the different NUC/Brix models. Not looking to compete with my mid-tower in terms of performance. Have this one in my cart at Newegg Intel NUC BOXD54250WYKH1 Intel Core i5-4250U Intel HD 5000 Series Graphics support 2.5-inch drives with a m-SATA SSD and add...

Hi All, Long-time member but have fallen behind the tech curve. I have nice gaming rig mid-tower, good-to-go there. But my laptop died and I need small box for my music studio. Nothing fancy like video editing, just need: - smallish form factor, don't need laptop as it will stay put. - have...

Hi, Thanks for creating this thread. I have basically the same question, started searching this forum & found this right on the front page. Hope you don't mind me jumping in. I'm running my 2500K with stock cooler, on Biostar TZ68A+ mobo. Haven't tried OC yet, want to give it a try but not...

Because that 24 incher is as much a TV as it is a monitor. This "HDMI but no DVI" config is on several other 24 inchers too. You can get DVI-HDMI adaptor pretty cheap. I am not sure why you gave away the Westy, I have the LCM-22w3 and I love it. Most 22" TN based LCDs use CMO (Chimei)...

proof?

Fair enough. I am not signing up for a photosite for this though, they are spammers. If you PM me your email address I will send you a JPG of my order status. I just received/installed the card, it came with ETQW game. :beer:

Geez you gotta love a guy who has been a member for 1/2 year calling me a liar. Only 152 posts in 7 years and you think I am trolling? I have better things to do then make a jpg, remove my private info, and post to a photosite to make you feel better. Believe what you want :roll: For...

You guys who ordered the MSI card at Dell for 208+tax don't cancel your order. I ordered on 11/29 and I was shocked to see that they shipped my card yesterday. I have DHL tracking number and have been following it to FL. Should be here tomorrow. The weird thing is that they changed my...

thanks for the replies but it turns out I am an idiot :o I found that my PSU does indeed have a 6 pin PCI-E connector tucked away in just the right spot to connect to the video card. So I should be good to go. The molex connector must just be there for legacy IDE devices.

Back in the day when I bought my last video card, Nvidia 6800 AGP, you plugged a 4 pin white molex connector into the AGP card to give it more juice. I finnlly upgraded to a new box, Dell Dimension 9200 (don't laugh, got a great deal) and am looking to upgrade the cheap PCI Express x16 card...

CPU-Z confirms that the memory speed is 400 (2 * 200). I guess I will go ahead and try the DIMM they send me. When that doesn't work we will see what they do next. I am guessing it is the BIOS and if it would let me change that memory speed setting I could get 533.

:confused: Hi, I bought this laptop for my son for X-Mas, I thought memory speed should be 533 but BIOS says 400 (and of course it being a Dell I cannot change it). I have a single Hynix 256 MB DDR2 DIMM, I looked up the part number and it is rated at 533. I also have Transcend 1 GB...

Hey MattStone, check your order status. my sam's club preorder shipped and i got a tracking #!
