I was under the impression that they Sandy Bridge based laptops would launch at the same time as the desktop chips. I saw the Anand review and I keep hearing about different manufacturers talking about prices and specs but no release dates anywhere (as far as I can find). Also I couldn't find a...
I built a dedicated server for my website using an e8400 earlier this month running video streaming which eats a constant 60% CPU leaving the remaining 40% to the webserver. This is without a doubt cpu limiting the server causing slow downs on every other page. As I'm moving towards creating...
So this week I had 4gb of ddr2-1066 RAM go bad (defaulting to my spare 1gb of ddr2 800) on my current socket 775 build and I've finally decided to step up to the LGA 1156 platform. I do some gaming, video encoding/editing, and lots of multitasking between heavy production and light dare I say...

The stream consists of mostly 10-20 minute...

What would happen if I unplugged the 6-pin power connector to my hd4850 and booted on the integrated graphics with the unpowered hd4850 still in the pci-e slot? Is it safe and will it behave the same as an empty pci-e slot?
Lately I have been trying to reduce power consumption on my desktop build stated in my sig. To cut to the chase I want to know if there is any way to disable one of my pci-e slots in the bios. Namely my pci-e slot holding my hd4850. I have onboard graphics aswell and many times there is no need...

So about a year ago I bought this Westinghouse L2610NW-SP 2.5.5" monitor for real cheap used on ebay. When it arrived the backlight was busted, no light...
