Hi,
I am finally getting around to upgrading my modem. The internet speeds are decent, but there has been some slow downs at times, and I'm hoping a new modem will help make a more consistent connection.
Charter Spectrum modem with phone jack.
Upgrading to a Netgear CM400 modem without a...
EDIT: Answered all my questions. Hopefully everything will work fine now that I have a better understanding of things. Thx for all the replies. I usually search for answers, but this saved me a lot of time/headaches, and I appreciate it.

Hi,
I recently set up a new router (NETGEAR AC1750 R6400-100NAS) and hooked up a USB drive to the router to use as a media center. That seems to be working fine with various computers, media players, phones, etc.
I have 2 computers running windows 8.1 with the following settings...
Hi,
Looking for ideas on a new case that will support a Micro ATX mobo with a Noctua NH-D14 cooler and mounts horizontally.
I just picked up a micro ATX mobo from ASUS after my Gigabyte mobo crapped out and had issues with RMA. So one problem led to this different issue. The cooler is...

Is there a way to hide my ip while using one of the team speak programs like vent or mumble?
The reason I ask is that I heard of some person using some basic kind of ddos attack to bog...
Hi,
My friend recently dropped her toshiba satellite a135 laptop and the drive seems shot. I opened it up and the drive doesn't seem to be spinning. I'm 99% sure it's the drive, but could the sata connectors have broken off or anything weird where a new drive wont work? I doubt it's...
Hi,
1st time sandboxer here.
I've been reading how vulnerable win xp is now compared to vista/7 so I wanted to add another level of protection until upgrading. Though I might leave xp on my 2nd box. I run 2 hds a 640gb with 2 partitions (DRIVE C & D) and a 2TB storage drive (DRIVE E). Drive...
With all the deals on video cards, I was hoping to upgrade the onboard graphics on a couple of rigs to pci-e cards. Most of the deals are for dvi cards with s-vid, but there was one deal for a 1gig 4850 with HDMI for $120 that would have been good. I am sure there will be plenty of better...
I recently bought a Biostar TF560 to pair with that cheap BE2400 and I could sometimes get it to start booting into the cd rom with windows, but it would freeze up after a few seconds.
I thought it was heat from northbridge or a bad mobo, but I read a review on newegg that said some of the...
A bunch of people picked up that X2 BE-2400 from newegg for cheap. There has been discussion on which mobo to get (TF560 etc), but no mention of the TF720.
The TF560 is supposed to be a good overclocker and stable budget board. How does the TF720 stack up in that regard?
The TF720 is...
Hi and thanks for looking.
I recently installed a video surveillance system for a friends warehouse. It is a Q-see Net DVR complete set with cameras and dvr from costco. Installation and getting it running was pretty straight forward and it works as advertised.
Now my friend wants to...
I have 3 rigs: 1 for game, 1 multimedia, 1 as a server.
The gaming rig has a raptor that is fast, but loud at times. The multimedia and the server both have seagate 7200 drives. The server runs pretty quiet 7200.7 IDE drives that could be faster, but runs silent. My multimedia rig runs a...

I have a 7900GT that I'd like to silence and a 7900GS (KO) on the way that will most likely need some silencing/cooling too.
When I got the 7900GT there weren't many options, but one was to shorten up an AC NV5 cooler. I was hoping that there would be more low cost options by now, but...
With all the deals on oem SATA optical and hd's, I found this at tb and thought it might be good for people.

The price is ok at $2 each for the silver ones and the free shipping is nice since a lot of place will charge a few bucks to ship them. They also have a bunch of...
Hi,
I am looking for a new ps for the following system. I've read that some power supplies don't play well with this mobo. I'd like to spend less than $100. Modular would be nice, but reliability is my top priority. Something like the Antec true550 EPS12V.
Needs at least 480w, +12v...
Frys has the 74 gig Raptor for $189.99 with a $30 MIR for pickup. There is tax.
Nice price for a full retail kit with cable. Tax hurts it a little. But if you want to pick one up today like I do, then it's a good way to go.

I didn't find this posted and DVD>CD for easy installation, etc.
I don't think this is the lmtd edition but I'd rather pay a little more for the dvd version.

Has anyone tried the trade in program? Seems to be the cheapest way to get a 6800GT pci-e card.
I have a 6800 GT AGP card that I got from Microcenter for around $345 after taxes. Since it says that you have to trade in for a more expensive card, I want to trade up to the PCI-e version for...
A nice little device for people wanting to hook up their ipod, etc. and get good sound quality. I ordered one of these for my sony headunit/cd changer and it got to me in a few days. The sony changer aux input was $50. Shipping was around $6 and it was $30 cheaper than the list price. One...
I kept putting off upgrading my Athlon 3200 system, because of all the inflated prices.
Asus almost got $200+ off of me a couple times, but that DFI board was too much to resist so I placed a preorder at Monarch. Got a pretty good price on it too. It's supposed to be in next week.
-Edit-...
Newegg has this case on sale. It's not as cheap as some other off brand cases, but it looks really nice imo and got good reviews.

It's time to upgrade my system. I read that the 6600GT oc's well and that people were unlocking the pipelines on other cards. Since the 6800GT and the X800pro are the best you can buy, what lower end/less expensive card will give the best chance of matching their big brothers performance...
I recently picked up that ECS Nforce 2/ Barton 2500+ combo at frys. It runs stable at 200 FSB/ 3200+ speeds. The problem is my ram runs high timings to pull it off. I was wondering if anyone else is running this same board and if there were some bios options to make it perform better. That...
Intel brought out a P4 2.4Ghz Prescott w/ 1M Cache running at 533Mhz and I was curious if anyone has played with one. It's not ht enabled but it oc's well according to this article: http://hardocp.com/article.html?art=NjAzLDE=

Bought a 1.8A and Epox 4G4A combo from Frys a couple weeks ago. Was having problems at 145 FSB. My old ps was not providing enuff juice. I got that Antec 430 and got the cpu up to 2.7ghz. It'll run windows and the 1st 2 tests on 3Dmark. Than the test locks up. The stock cooler wasn't...
Frys has em for $300. Its "ATI Certified" and I think its actually made by FIC. Still its gotta be better than any NVidia card or anything else for that matter.
If someone picks one up let us know.
