I recently purchased the above receiver as low end receiver for a dorm room. However it has been causing some issues that I can't quite figure out. When plugged into my ~5 year old monitor (HDPC compatiple) via HDMI my screen flashes blue when my PS3 is turned on. The PS3 dashboard is still on...
Fry's has a Galaxy GTX 570 for 259.99 after a $50 rebate with a free copy of Arkham City.
It's the cheapest I've seen a GTX 570 in a while.

I recently picked up an X5650 for cheap and now I need a cooler to pair it with. I'm assuming a hex core will put off more heat than a quad so I was curious if I would be able to go with a mid range heatsink or will I need to go more expensive? I plan to overclock some (if my board allows it)...
I am currently planning out my next computer upgrade and was given a Xeon X5660 (2.8ghz 6 core) and am wondering if it is worth going with the Xeon and an X58 motherboard or just going with the faster 2600k and a P67 board.
This will be primarily a gaming computer so 6 cores is not really...
First off sorry if this is the wrong forum but I figured I would have the best chance to get my question answered here.
I recently purchased a X-Fi Titanium HD and have found that when trying to play games through Steam with Dolby Digital Live enabled the game either crashes or will not play...
I have two questions and didn't want to start two topics so I will combine them
1) I have been looking to get either an MX510 or an MX1000. I know the MX1000 is wireless but is there anything else that would make the MX1000 worth the ~$30 price difference
2) I currently have a SB Live and...
I have been debating going with water cooling for a while and was wondering what is a safe vcore for a 130nm 3000+ on water. Right now I am a 1.69 on air and was wondering how much further I could go on water.
Thanks in advance.
I currently have a cheap PSU which came with my raidmax case. It is rated at 420w but only has 13A for 12v.
I have also had less than steller OC with my 3000+ cpu and was wondering if the PSU couldn't supply enough power would it cause the random reboots and cause my system not to be Prime...
I currently have an A64 3000+ Newcastle. I have heard that almost all will OC to 2.4 ghz and beyond. Right now the max I can OC is 2.389 ghz or 265x9. This is only Prime stable at 1.72 volts which is a little higher than I want to be running. My ram is running at 200mhz via a divider and my HTT...
I was looking for some PC4000 ram and came across this it is priced lower than other sticks I have seen but seems to have the same timings.
My question is this ram any good or is it cheap ram that will blow out on me.
I have been OCing my 3000+ and was wondering does using a higher HTT add performance like it did on the Athlon XP's or is 267x9 or 2403 mhz running the memory async the same as 240x10 and running the memory syncronous performance wise.
I was wondering what would be faster 1gb PC3200 memory running asyncronous or 512mb PC4000 memory running synchronous in games. And how much of a performance would you lose running async on a A64 I know its not much.
Thanks for the help
Didn't know where to post this but here is my problem. Today I was playing some games for a while and after about 3 hours my games would lock up for around 5 seconds then start up again. The about a twenty seconds later the same thing would happen. This has never happened before.
My question...
I was experimenting with OCing my graphics card when I came across an option for AGP bus speed. It has options from 66-100. I was wondering if there was any performance gain by raising this from 66 to say 80.
I hasve an A64 3000+ Newcastle currently at 1.68 volts and was wondering what the max voltage the A64's have. I have a Zalman CNPS7000 so heat is not a problem.
Thanks for the help
I currently have a 6800 GT and want to OC it. To get more voltage do I have to flash to the Ultra bios or is there another way to raise the voltage.
Thanks in advance

Sorry if this has been asked before, I searched and didn't see it.
I have an AMD 64 3000+ and 1gb of Corsair Value Select PC3200. I was wondering what is better for the A64's memory speed or timings. Is it better to be running at 240mhz CAS 3 or 220mhz CAS 2.5
Thanks in advance for the help.
I have had my Soundblaster Live since June and has been working fine but now when I look in the control panel under sounds and audio devices it says no audio device and will not give any sound. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and it still won't work.
Has anybody had this...
I just recently bought a DFI Lanparty UT 250gb and have been very happy with it. But the heatsink on the northbridge chip does not seem to be very effective. I was wondering how many people have swaped their northbridge heatsink on this board? Is it recommended? If so what cooler do you guys...
I have had my BFG 6800 GT for about 2 months and have had no problems with it. But last night when I turned my system on it loaded windows and then right after the windows loading icon goes away I get a BSOD for around one second and then my sytem will reboot. I thought it might be something...
I currently have an ECS 755-a2 (got it a fry's a week ago with an AMD 64 3000+) for $200 and I was wondering how much better of a board the MSI K8T Neo Fsr is compared to my current board. I am asking because in the Fry's ad today it said AMD 64 3000+ and an MSI board for $189. I went in to see...
I have been thinking of upgrading from an
AMD Athlon 2800+ Barton @ 2.3 ghz
ECS N2U400-A
BFG 6800 GT OC
1 GB Corsair VS DDR 400
and upgrading the processor and motherboard to
DFI Lanparty
AMD 64 3200+
I was wondering if this would be a good upgrade and how much of an...
