    Netbook for farmville?

    Just want to say thanks to everyone. We purchased a Eee Pc with the 1.67ghz processor and honestly she couldn't be happier. It runs Farmville well. The only drawback is the screen size as it is a bit on the small side for the game, however it is a minor drawback according to her. Overall she has...

    Wifi signal from my 54G netgear Router interferes with my surround sound speakers

    Partly because our cable internet access only extends slightly beyond our entertainment center. I guess I could get an extension cable though. Any foreseeable problems with that? Also just looking for confirmation that this is the cause. Could it be also that the speaker is not magnetically...

    Wifi signal from my 54G netgear Router interferes with my surround sound speakers

    Just wondering if speakers/receiver interferes with the wireless router signal? My signal has slowed to a crawl. The only thing that seems to fix it is when I unplug the speaker that is about a foot away from the wifi router. When I do this the internet is smooth. I do notice that the sound...

    Netbook for farmville?

    So I have seen the youtube video which demonstrates that the game runs fairly well. My gf is completely addicted and completely monopolizing my comp. So I am thinking a netbook would be a nice cheap way to get her off my comp. I went to best buy all ready to get one of the Asus Eee PC...

    Laptop for photoshop CS4

    That's okay, its kind of a tough call. Well I ended up with a Sony Vaio CW VPCCW21FX/W It seems like the equivalent to the 13" macbook pro. The salesman at best buy was actually nice enough to take an open box 13 mbp and compare it side to side with the sony. He actually found the same...

    Laptop for photoshop CS4

    Main things are viewing angle (meaning if I tilt my head a little up or down, left or right the image is not going to change in contrast, brightness, etc). A basic graphics card would be great, I am not even sure that photoshop is helped much by a graphics card these days is it? I think as much...

    Laptop for photoshop CS4

    Want a laptop for mainly CS4 and really only to view raw files from my camera so it would be good if it had a wide viewing angle ala IPS. I will use this mainly just for viewing my photos on the road and then when home it will be docked and used with my 22" monitor. It would be nice if it...

    Affordable 750watt MODULAR PSU?

    I think the 750watts was for sorta of future proofing my system, but I feel like if I upgrade it will be years, and years. For what I do this system will last a very long time. I mean the only game I am even remotely interested in is D3 and that is still 2 years out I think if not longer.

    Affordable 750watt MODULAR PSU?

    Is there a reliable/affordable modular PSU out there? Would be nice if it was $100 or less. Thanks. Actually if I am not overclocking do I even need 750watts for this system: The system consists of 4 gigs ram evga 8800 GTS 640MB Vram AMD A64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ Running at 2.21GHZ Raptor...

    Which case is best for cable management?

    I should mention I have throttle back the cpu to the stock 2.2 ghz. I do not game anymore with the exception of a little d2 now and then. So the case does not need to accommodate overclock really.

    Which case is best for cable management?

    Unfortunately my gf would hate that case. I think its great, but it is a little ugly in the front and this is kinda in our living room so almost everyone will see it. Thanks though.

    Which case is best for cable management?

    What Lian Li offerings would you recommend. I like that 800d but really that is just too far out of my price range as I want to invest in a new modular psu as well.

    Which case is best for cable management?

    Right now I am using an Antech 900 and I would just like something a little more cable management friendly without having to use power tools (live in apartment). Anything under $150 would be great but understand if it has to be more. Fan cooling is fine. The system consists of 4 gigs...

    23" Apple Cinema Display problems (aluminum HD model)

    The funny thing about this is that Apple supports windows OS on their computers so why can't they put out a measly driver for their monitors?!?! Thanks for the suggestion!

    23" Apple Cinema Display problems (aluminum HD model)

    The mouse does not show any evidence of that problem now that it is plugged directly into the computer USB. So is there a way to get a driver now? I mean this monitor has been out for 2 years or more hasnt it? Thanks!

    23" Apple Cinema Display problems (aluminum HD model)

    So I was just wondering if this is normal for this display every now and then and especially after a couple hours of operation there is almost like a burn-in effect which is noticable when I am browsing the net. It is not permanent, but is this a sign that the monitor may be on its way out? Does...

    Cannot view my bios with Apple Cinema Display 23 HD (aluminum)

    So I guess I need a different monitor then? Apple don't call your monitor PC compatible if I can't even view my bios settings with my PC!!! @@$#@%

    Cannot view my bios with Apple Cinema Display 23 HD (aluminum)

    This is with these components: For some reason it does not display the bios. It will show the windows icon when booting and then displays the desktop fine. It also scales resolutions just fine and displays properly. GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe Windows Vista Home Premium

    Is there a front panel audio for the sound blaster other then what creative overcharges for?

    Great suggestions! I will have to look into this although I really dont like the idea of people being able to spill over a 10ft cable and also I can see that cable getting all notted up and just getting in the way in general. The computer is in the living room and I have to contend with my...

    Is there a front panel audio for the sound blaster other then what creative overcharges for?

    What? Why would I sell the fatality card? It is newer and better then the XtremeGamer card your recommending? Im sorry but I will not be doing all that crap just to plug in my headphones to the front of my case. Thanks for trying to help though.

    Is there a front panel audio for the sound blaster other then what creative overcharges for?

    No your right on the money. This is exactly what Im after, only I already have a Sound Blaster Fatality sound card. I just want to be able to get that panel that comes with the Hercules card at a fair price. Creative makes one, but they want $70!! That is an awful lot for me to justify being...
