    Replacing a 6 year old Desktop, looking for build help.

    I double checked with my tape measure and 20.5" ends up being ok. Thank you so much for the help guys, looks like I have some triggers to pull.

    Replacing a 6 year old Desktop, looking for build help.

    Wow, this looks really good, thank you. One quick question: how much of a difference is there between the i5-4670K vs the i7 4770? Is it just the 2MB difference in L3 cache?

    Replacing a 6 year old Desktop, looking for build help.

    1. What YOUR PC will be used for. I will be using this computer for Gaming, web browsing, watching Twitch.tv streams, Netflix, and watching downloaded videos. I would also like to watch BluRay movies on this rig. 2. What YOUR budget is. $1800 3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts...

    Cant decide between these 2 keyboards.

    I don't know how deep into competitive FPS you plan on going when you're looking at fairly cheap keyboards such as these. From what I understand, a mechanical keyboard is the way to go, and I haven't seen one that's under $80-$90 because of the difference in build quality. Competitive gaming...

    Why does my second monitor flicker a little?

    Where would I access my registry in Vista 64? I don't fiddle with the registry and I want to make sure I'm accessing it properly.

    Why does my second monitor flicker a little?

    Even with a factory OC? I haven't done any OCing myself, it came OC'd a bit by Gigabyte out of the box. Should I try to "underclock" it some?

    Why does my second monitor flicker a little?

    I'm having this problem too. Just upgraded from a Sapphire x1950xt to a Gigabyte 5850 (factory OC'd: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-318-_-Product) and I'm now having the same problem on my second monitor, a Dell 2005fpw in landscape. My desktop is extended onto it from my 23.6" Asus...

    ipod classic concerns: itunes alternatives & file compatability

    Title pretty much says it all. I've had a Creative Zen Vision M for over 3 years now and the 30gig capacity is wearing a bit thin, as is the size and battery life to a lesser extent. As the Zune 120 was discontinued a year ago and I didn't have the money at the time to purchase one and I'm not...

    Can my PSU handle a 5850?

    So I'm looking to upgrade my video card from a x1950xt to a 5850. I'm using this PSU: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817194003 and looking to make sure that it'll be able to handle the card's power requirements. I'll be running a DVD-R drive and three hard drives (two 500GB, one...

    Brag if you got into the SC2 beta

    At the lowest possible graphic settings and resolution, why not? Obviously it won't run it at 1200x1900, but that's not really what the "minimum" in "PC Minimum Requirements" implies now is it?

    Considering moving to Cali - what do I need to know?

    Stop saying "Cali." It's California, CA, So Cal, or Nor Cal.

    Brag if you got into the SC2 beta

    For some reason I wasn't able to submit my computer settings with the little blizz tool months back when the opt-in started. Probably just a router setting and I was too lazy to figure it out. Re-downloaded the tool a couple hours ago and it worked just fine, odd. Crossing my fingers to get in...
