    What RAM should I get?

    Go with G.Skill that were mentioned earlier in the thread as I have heard nothing but good things about them. I would avoid Crucial like the plague. I have had to RMA my Crucial Ballistix Tracer 3 times within the past 2 years. Their quality has gone down hill lately.

    PC Keeps Restarting Before POST or Boot Screens

    That is what I am starting to think as well. I will be contacting Gigabyte Tech Support regarding the issue to determine if a RMA is needed.

    PC Keeps Restarting Before POST or Boot Screens

    Removed all non-essential hardware connected to the PSU and motherboard except 1 RAM and video card. Same issue still persists. My system turns on for 2 seconds, turns off for 2 seconds, turns on for 2 seconds, turns off for 2 seconds in a continous loop of that sequence. At least the failure is...

    PC Keeps Restarting Before POST or Boot Screens

    Went to turn on my PC after work today and it keeps restarting after 2 seconds. My LCD screen is just black and shows nothing. Not even the POST or Gigabyte screen shows up like how it should after pressing the power button during a normal startup. The restarts are an infinite loop, so after a...

    Has anyone ever bought a car from Costco?

    Exactly what this member said. Costco will refer you to a local dealership that offers a discounted "costco" price which is usually a certain amount over the invoice price.

    Uh how quiet is the PS3 supposed to be?

    The 40GB version is supposed to be a little bit more quiet than the 80GB version. But if you have it in an entertainment center, it shouldn't be noticeable.

    *HOT* Confirmed. 80GB PS3 MGS4 Bundle $499 + $100 WM Gift Card

    I tried 4 Walmarts today and no luck at all. Went to 2 stores in the morning around 7AM before work and 2 more after work. All the stores were either sold out or didn't receive the bundle. Sucks.

    Holy crap

    Just pick it up from Wal-Mart on release day since they will be offering a $100 giftcard with it. A much better deal than Amazon.

    Thinking about picking up the witcher

    I have installed the demo twice, but every time I try running the Witcher demo, I get the following error message. I give up trying to play the demo. LOL. The application has failed to start because d3dx9_25.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    So... CoD 4

    You are 2/3 throug the game. There is 1 more act to complete. Also when you beat the game, let the credits run all the way through because there is still one more mission after the credits are finished.

    Arrow keys for me. I just like how there are no other keys immediately adjacent to the arrow keys so I don't press the wrong keys while moving.

    Why do people hate Vista?

    Vista BLOWS. Having problems installing Vista on my brothers' new builds. After 2 days of trying everything, we gave up and decided and go with XP instead. Atleast everything is nice and stable. I wouldn't touch Vista until SP1 is released for it.
