    Triple Monitor Mount for 30" LCDs

    Has anyone had any experience or seen any good solutions for a triple monitor mount for three 30" LCDs? This would be for a large, executive type desk that is up against a wall so either a wall mount or desk mount solution would work. Previous manufacturers i've used, mainly Peerless...

    8800GTS 320MB problem

    Here's the issue: I have an EVGA 880GTS 320MB. I used to have Vista Ultimate X64 running and every so often, when ending or starting a game the monitor would lose the input and i'd be forced to restart the computer in order to regain video output. At first I thought this issue was unique to...

    Looking for a quality USB headset with 40mm drivers and a mic as a present for a mate. Somewhere around the $50 range is good, a little more is OK too. I've always used speakers and never had a need to use a good headset so don't have much experience in the area, anyone got any good...

    rev E4 and MSI NEO2 question.

    Will the new E4 revision chips work in an MSI NEO2? I saw on the MSI site that there was a BIOS update for the E6 revision and wondered if anyone knew whether I would be able to run the E4 revision without a BIOS update, which incidentally is not actually available from MSI.

    BIOS update question

    Wasn't sure about this. Thinking about picking a used Neo2 on the boards here and I was wondering if i would be able to update the BIOS from, say, a pre E6 BIOS to the BIOS for E6/E4 chips whilst physically using an E6/E4 chip or would I need an older revision chip to update the BIOS...

    Interesting PSU dilemma

    OK, I used to run some OKIA (who) 550W PSU, never had any problems with it except the 12V always ran at 11.91(ish), with very little fluctuation though. My friend picked up a new PSU so i tried out his Antec 380W from a sonata case. The 12V rail ran at around 11.75V, I was really expecting...

    Investigations into Socket 939 Athlon 64 Overclocking

    So i was reading through this article, which i found to be very useful and informative, and noticed that the author, Jarred Walton, doesn't seem to have any issues with running the system with a VCore of 1.7V, when at high overclocks, using an XP-90. I was wondering what some of you guys...

    Upgrading my system - how's this look?

    1GB OCZ premier value 3200+ Venice MSI Neo2 Platty edit - I'm thinking about going with an XP-90C for cooling. Can i expect the XP-90C to cool substantially better than the XP-90? That's to go with the rest of what's in my sig. I'm not going PCI-E right now as I don't have the...

    Is there any point buying a 3500+ if you o/c

    Most people with a 3000+ venice can hit around 2.6 / 2.7. It seems most people with a 3500+ are hitting the same, maybe 2.8. (all with air cooling obviously). Are there any benefits really? I ask the same of the 3200+, i know it has an unlocked multiplier but from what ive seen on...

    380W Antec TP or 550W OKIA PSU

    Presently I have a 550W OKIA PSU, yeh i know it's crap but it was cheap and i didn't have money to burn, on a good note though it has never given me any trouble for 10 months and it runs my overclocked machine fine (though with 11.9V on the 12V rail). A friend of mine recently ordered a new...

    PSU

    I have a pretty cheap OKIA 550W PSU with: 3.3V - 32A 5V - 40A 12V - 24A on the rails. I run an AXP 3000+, 400FSB @2413MHz, 6600GT@545/1.12, a few hard drives etc ... I'm thinking about upgrading (of course o/cing) and wondered if i should pick up a new PSU. My main...

    Sticking mouse button

    I have a Razer Diamondback mouse and, whether through my own fault or natural causes (probably my own fault), the left button has started to 'stick'. Obviously i'm a gamer. It's ok when i just tap the button but if i hold it down for more than a second or two it will stick, usually for an...

    Overclocked 3000+ w/ 400MHz FSB

    I have an Athlon XP 3000+ w/ 400MHz FSB and recently bought an NF7-S in the hope of doing a bit of overclocking. It turns out that my CPU happens to be a pre week 39/03 chip so the multiplier is unlocked (guess that makes me kind of lucky considering I bought it in the last quarter of 04. So...
