Searching Google hasn't been very fruitful with this, and all forum threads on the topic seemed to be at least a couple years old.
I know that TigerDirect carries a few OEM CPUs, but most of the more recent CPUs are Out of Stock. Any others? Hopefully one that is offering pre-orders on the...
Looking around, it seems like most Z97 share most of the same features, but I am having a hard time finding a good, inexpensive Z97 board with 801.11 ac wifi (a prime consideration for me). I have always gone with ASUS, but the only Z97 board they appear to have with 801.11 ac is the...
What do you all think is the best (in terms of cost performance) 24" monitor out there right now?
Must be:
1. IPS
2. LED
3. Glossy screen
Prefer:
1. USB slots
2. 1920x1200
3. Very accurate colors
If the glossy screen requirement negates too many options, then scrap it (it seems...
Just upgraded to Windows 8 and I'm having an issue I never had in Windows 7. Whenever somebody sends me an archive (.zip, .rar, etc.) that contains file names that are in Japanese, they always appear garbled (文字化け).
1. I am using Outlook 2010
2. This happens...
I'm looking to get a new laptop with the below specs:
-128 GB SSD
-IPS screen, 1920x1080
-i5 processor
-6 GB ram
I like the VAIOs, but they don't allow all that much customization, and I really want to get something with the exact specs above. Any help?
I'm wondering if anyone knows what the best blu-ray disc player out there is for under $200 that can:
1) Play video from all regions
2) Play DivX and H.264 format video
Would love any input!
I am wondering if anyone could tell me what my bios settings should be for a modest air-cooled overclock with the following components:
-i7 950 (with Thermalright Ultra-120 rev. C hsf)
-Corsair DDR3 1333 Mhz RAM. I forgot, but I think this is the one I have...
I'm looking for a way to set the speed of a chassis fan (3-pin) connected to my ASUS P6X58D-E motherboard. Anyone have any suggestions on how best to do this?
I have tried ASUS' Fan Xpert, and it doesn't work for me at all: there is only the option to adjust all chassis fans at once, and even...
I realize this may strike many of you as very odd, but I am interested in hearing from people who have used a Wacom tablet for gaming. I have heard of the ergonomic benefits of using a pen as opposed to a mouse (I have mild RSI) and am wondering about the general experience of playing RTSs and...
I'm building a new system and need a motherboard that fits these criteria (at the minimum):
1. Crossfire support (for 2 6870s)
2. i7-950 compatible
3. USB 3.0
4. ASUS or other reputable brand
5. $200 or (preferably) less
Could really use any advice you all might have. Thanks!
Does anyone know the console command to run the "chase bench" benchmark in Bad Company 2? Is it a timedemo command or something?
Also, are there any ways of benchmarking gamebryo engine games like Fallout 3 or New Vegas?
Thanks.
Here's the short of it: I am completely unable to boot into Windows 7 either normally, or through safe mode. Running a boot disc and trying to reinstall doesn't work either.
When trying to enter Windows 7 normally:
It gets to the splash screen with the animating windows logo and just...
Have a couple questions about the new SSD drive from Intel:
1. Does a bracket to mount it in a standard desktop case come in the box?
2. If anyone has one of these, would you mind giving your thoughts on it?
This is not something that is easy to find on the web (I'm assuming because nobody wants to officially come out and say that one company is "better" than another on their website). But I'd be interested to hear people's opinions on the relative strengths and weaknesses of various video card...
I'm using a Seasonic 600HT (600W) power supply and it's only got 2 6-pin connectors. I'm thinking about getting one of the upcoming GTX295 cards (which requires a native 8-pin PEG) and I'd like to use the same PSU if possible, so would you guys recommend a molex to 8-pin adapter, or should I...
Does anyone know of a company that makes brackets to allow me to use a 3.5" drive in a 5.25 bay? I want to put my WD Velociraptor in there so the higher quality the bracket the better.
Thanks for any help.
I have a DVD-rom question and it feels like I?ve looked everywhere for the answer.
I recently put together a new system with a new DVD-ROM drive (Pioneer DVR-112) and Windows XP. My problem is that the DVD-ROM in one of my computers is not able to read data from CDs or DVDs while in normal...
I`ve been playing a lot of Neverwinter Nights 2 recently. It`s a fun game, but I find that you have to load new areas almost constantly in the game. Every time you go indoors, you get a loading screen. Come back out again - loading screen. With the amount of loading that needs to be done in...
