    Good keyboard?

    That's partially true with old 80s/90s IBM model Ms, it can do certain 3 key combos (Like Control+Alt+Delete) and having tested with key test software there are cases where you could press 4 keys down. In the case with the Unicomp Classic 104 usb which I have, it comes with newer a...

    Good keyboard?

    Unicomp Classic 104 from www.pckeyboard.com which is basically the same design as the very long lasting and legendary IBM model M. You could even get a used IBM Model M if you don't mind using a 20 year old Keyboard. If you don't want to use that, you could look at a Ducky Shine 3

    Planning For A WHSv1 Replacement?

    I will replace it with Windows 7 or 8. I already pulled off all of the data and I am testing WIndows 8 on the machine right now.

    Anyone else get a Catleap?

    My Achieva Shimian has been good for 2 weeks. Now that a few friends have seen it, I suspect more sales of these monitors happening soon.

    I just got my Shimian. Looks like there are some companies in the US who are going to sell their own 27" locally. I saw something about Nixeus going to start to sell their 27" with multi inputs starting next week.

    Problem:Graphics card or power supply?

    I thought XFX had "lifetime" warranty. They took in a 5 year old 8600GT and replaced it.

    New GPU for ancient rig

    The problem with GTS 450 is that many come with DDR3 that really kills performance. Its still a $100 card. If you are not in the US it might help folks to let people know where you are.

    New GPU for ancient rig

    Ronin: you have the problem of nvidia not having a "great" choice for low end budget cards with lesser power requirements and AMD offers better choices. Anyways. The 550 Ti takes one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130625 The only other choice for $10 less is the GT 640...

    Computer Freezes!

    1.7v is too high for the memory. :( At some point you will have to find 1.5v memory. It may take time, but it has to be changed. A lot of people were mad when Nehalem came out since most DDR3 ram at the time was 1.65v and the specs were 1.5v (meaning they would have to buy new ram). HSF yep a...

    Computer Freezes!

    Squallypie: I live 30 miles from CM USA. I often forget that Anandtech gets people from all over the world and availability isn't the same. If its possible a photo of the HSF might tell us something. Yes, you have to clean off the HSF and CPU when you remove it and stick new thermal paste on...
