    trouble reinstalling via usb

    Trying to reinstall Windows 7 on a Dell l502x. It is asking for drivers? An apparent fix is to use usb 2.0 but this machine doesn't have any. Also the DVD drive is busted. Any other way to install?

    MotherBoard for amd 6 core

    One tip is to make sure you get a "future-proof" board that will allow you to swap in an FX series chip down the road.

    fx-9370 at newegg

    Why doesnt Intel just rebrand the 4770k as the 4990k with a 4.7 GHz clock and require water cooling?

    First time OCing my i-7 860

    Does your board have any auto overclocks? If so, you can let it do its thing and see what settings are changed. You can then set it back and manually change. Most likely you will change the multiplier on the CPU first.

    AMD A10 6800K Temperatures

    How many case fans do you have? Typically, if using only one fan, it is arranged to exhaust air out of the case, thus allowing makeup air to flow into the case through available vents. Some use multiple case fans to exhaust and supply air through the case.

    AMD A10-5800k

    These cards? You mean APUs? Why are you using an APU with a 6950? If you arent crossfiring an APU, dont you think the iGPU is somewhat worthless?

    Radeon 6870 and my aching head

    SEE MY SIG As far as your issue, upon updating my driver since 12.8 I believe, when the update completes my monitor is black, but my system appears to be running fine. I reboot and everything is normal. I am not sure why this occurs. Could be some sort of BIOS conflict.

    How much RAM to feed trinity

    Just got my A8-5600k based HTPC up and running. By default, the ASRock Extreme4-M is feeding it 512 MB. I figure at least another 1/2 gig, but I have 8 GB of 2133 RAM, so I can easily afford to feed it 2 GB. Anyone have personal experience?

    GPU issue or not?

    No not at all. The system is fine. The action in the game is continuing around me, but its as if I cannot move or also can move but not fire the weapon.

    GPU issue or not?

    Recently during a specific game (FPS black ops), at times I will be stuck and not able to move. At first I thought I had a graphics issue, but Im not sure now. Anyone have ideas?

    Techreport 7950 vs. GTX 660 Ti "Smoothness" videos

    I made the mistake of updating from 12.8 to 12.10. My system hasnt been much different when playing BF3, but black ops (first one) has been terrible. Seems odd, my system specs are more than enough for the game and it was butter since I built the system. The graphics are nice looking, crystal...

    crossfire 6950 issues since i installed the latest drivers

    I guess I should not assume things - I though for sure I had .net4 framework installed like AMD mentioned for this driver. Im going to install and see how the driver is after.

    crossfire 6950 issues since i installed the latest drivers

    I installed the latest 12**10 driver and my system is pretty poor performing as well** I have a single 6870** In Black Ops my system lags often** This system has been smooth as butter with all other drivers in the past 2 years** This is such a joke!

    Upgrading From T2330 to T9500

    Remember - that boards interface is probably Sata II at best. Unless you pick up a real cheap SSD, it may not be worth it over memory/cpu upgrade. I threw a SSD in a netbook less than 2 years old and was not impressed with the minimal speed increase over the modern spinner it replaced. I even...

    2700k or 3770k :)

    I have a 2500k myself. I dont see any point in upgrading to an IB. If I was building a second Intel system from new components, I would choose the newest technology (IB) as long as price wasnt the most important factor.

    Looking to setup my house for internet access. I have a main/gaming rig and HTPC that I hard wire and my gf requires wireless access for internet/school etc. I have Turbo from TimeWarner - 20 mbps What is my best route? Wireless N router - hardwire items through this? Benefit of gigabit switch?
