    Help With Computer Audio

    Well, a friend of mine offered to buy the Klipschs for 100 which is a good deal I think. They still work like new and aren't that badly damaged. A piece of the subwoofer has parted to separate due to humidity, etc. bad sealings but its too late to send in for a replacement. I wouldn't mind...

    New system - need PSU please help

    Okay. Can anyone recommend a Zippy/Emac that has 24pin connector, good amperage, etc.? Fits the ATX 2.0 standard, or something close to say the OCZ Powerstream.

    New system - need PSU please help

    From what I've read, yes. Very reliable. They are made by Topower I believe. OCZ uses them, and OCZ is like the current craze for PSs next to PC&C.

    New system - need PSU please help

    well main reason is that if I am not mistaken, most Antec PSs are dual rail? And I've heard rumors that the quality has dropped recently due to new manufacturers. I really would prefer a VERY strong single rail that can handle future upgrades - even to the point of SLI. If you absolutely...

    New system - need PSU please help

    Yeah, I did a lot of research - but the problem is, I did so much research that I found all of the "good" PSUs out there and now I can't decide which one is truly the best for what I need. Definately need a 24pin. Definately want VERY good amperage. Right now I'm using a Thermaltake 420W...

    MSI NF4 Ultra released in stock

    I am building a new gaming system and I have had to order quite a few things lately (obviously). I ordered three of the pieces I needed from Zipzoomfly. Everything with the order went perfectly fine. I was searching for prices so I ended up making three separate orders with them. All three...

    Chaintech VNF4 vs MSI K8N Ultra

    How do these two boards compare to each other? Whats the big difference between the two that warrants a $40 - $70 difference in price between them? I thought with the new bios that the Chaintech overclocked VERY nicely? Please help, trying to figure this one out... Someone with more...

    MSI NF4 Ultra released in stock

    Hey I am curious. How comparable is the MSI NF4 Ultra to the DFI Lanparty NF4 Ultra? Non SLI? Anyone know what the differences are? Also, can this one be modded to be SLI just like the DFI? If so, is there a difference between what the two can do in that sense? Or are they pretty much...

    dfi lanparty nforce4

    We all do. We all do. That, or any good NF4 ULTRA board for that matter. So far all we have are a bunch of whispered nothings and shifting dates on e-merchants sites.

    Building New System - Looking for Your Input

    Ahh I did not know this. I'm ignorant when it comes to OCing so maybe I should keep my opinion to myself in that matter. I myself will not be OCing THAT much. I'll see what I can figure out and if the temps are right, I'll stay as high as I can go without overheating or feeling like I'm...

    Diamond Bungle or Bundle?

    I don't think they ship to the US. I may be wrong but when I tried, it said shipping was too much so go away. =P Not exactly that wording, but same principle.

    From my understanding, the 3200 is a better choice because its not priced that much higher than a 3000+ and you are closer to the 3500 originally so when you do overclock, you don't have to overclock as much. Thats what I've read. I may be way off though. But I am 99.99998 percent sure that...

    Ok thats what I thought. SO thats another 30-50 bucks for a heatsink. Ok.. What do you people recommend? Whats a good low-budget heatsink that works well for OCing? Yeah I'm happy with my XP2200 so it will probably just go in another system. Since I'm pretty much building from the...
