    Can I use Cat5e, to carry LIVE TV from one to another, using self-bought ARRIS SBG6580 Internet Router, to second display? TO THE ADMIN, I guess this would be the most reasonable forum to post this question. If not, please inform me to which Forum I should be posting. Thank You! ALL I...

    IDE to Sata on Optical CD/DVD not working

    I just finished rebuilding my computer and wanted to keep using my older IDE PIONEER DVR-710 CD/DVD burner along with a new ASUS 24X Burner, which is SATA. My new MB is a MSI B85-G41 PC Mate, and does not have the IDE header on the board, only Sata. So I moseyed on down to Fry's and bought a...

    Problems with a new build...YIKES!

    No power, so I hooked new Seasonic PSU to my old MSI P-35, and board light went on, so it's not the power unit..good! Knowing I have power, and checking the other side panel and saw 6 stand screws, so I know that can't be shorting out the Mobo. Thinking now it's not the ground or...

    Problems with a new build...YIKES!

    On my Old MSI P-35 Platinum, it had 8 or. 9 Mobo stand screws. (Correct name escapes me) This new B85 has only 6, are these universal in size, I did not see any of these with the new Mobo, are they usually included? I'll look again. I was careful, counted only 6 screws, lined them up. I...

    Still need a GPU, with an Intel i7 4770 for VIDEO EDITING?

    Here I go beating a dead horse, but ..... Whew! For now I have the 1280 x 1024 Monitor, I will upgrade hopefully soon, to maybe a IPS LED 22"-24", up to 1200, or more expensively up to 1400 RES. Reading more articles about the CPU's 4600 HD Graphics outperforming GPU's overall, and...

    Still need a GPU, with an Intel i7 4770 for VIDEO EDITING?

    WELL..I WENT AHEAD AND DID IT! I was at Fry's last night, to get a few LED 120mm case Fans. Just happened to meander over to the Graphics Isle, and saw the EVGA GTX-750 1 GB/GDDR5, for $135.00 with a $10.00 rebate. All of these past thread posts going back and forth asking nice, seasoned...

    Still need a GPU, with an Intel i7 4770 for VIDEO EDITING?

    I already have this 3rd party Coolermaster EVO Tower 212, which a lot of peeps told me that I could have used the supplied stock CPU cooler, but even with this CM 212, your telling me I would still need a better Cooler? If anything, I think if I go with a GPU at all, it might be between the...

    Nu build PC, New HD Monitor for Video-Editing,Photoshop??

    That's my ongoing dilemma, whether to just use only the i7 4770's HD4600 IGPU for now, and then get a GPU later,....(if everything is not as kosher using Photoshop CS5 EXT, and Pinnacle Studio 15 HD....But if someone could tell me that with both, I could have VIRTU to give me a choice on which...

    Still need a GPU, with an Intel i7 4770 for VIDEO EDITING?

    Thanks, 1440, or higher LED Display? I saw a a 2560x1440 IPS LED on Monoprice for $400.00 and up! Although this looks tempting, It's way out of my price range. So my choice would be either a REG. LED 1980x1080, or a IPS 1980x1200....I'll but the 2560x1440, after I win the lottery...(fingers crossed)

    Nu build PC, New HD Monitor for Video-Editing,Photoshop??

    Thanks, Yes, the correct $$ range, but that IPS monitor is only 1980 x 1020, I thought the 1980 x 1200 is far better resolution that the 1020. I don't know if you work with a DELL PC, or not, but I would imagine their monitors would be much better than their PC's themselves..My sister and a...

    Hi, Sorry we have to keep going down this road to my decision about whether to solely use my onboard HD 4600 i7's IGPU, or buy a dedicated GPU...Just don't want to step in anything by making the wrong decisions, when I can take the money that I would have spent on a decent new GPU, then...

    Hello, I dabble with Photoshop CS5, and Pinnacle Studio 15 HD, but not professionally. I am rebuilding my rig after seven years, and although I really like my existing Viewsonic VX2035wm, regardless of only a screen RES, of 1280 x 1024, some folks are telling me I should get a new 1920 x 1080...

    Do I replace PSU at every new build?

    Thanks anyway, I hope by getting the 550W S12G will be enough to power,since this last one was the 700W, but it's 7 years old, and needs to be replaced, and given that I spent about $700.00 on the new parts, I would hate to blow all that on a aged PSU. My new question now would be about...

    Do I replace PSU at every new build?

    Hello, I have been told that it's smart to replace your PSU at every new build, about 5-7 years. Are their specs that the newer boards require out of a PSU, than they did let's say, seven years ago? I have a 7 year old Thermaltake Toughpower 700w, I bought seven years ago, and I was going...
