    Do I need dual band?

    So my TL-WR1043ND v1 is currently not performing as well as I hoped, as it needs a reboot every other day. I live in area where my two neighbors have wifi, nothing else is really interfering with anything. I had no issues with wireless devices and their performance. Only one device...

    Cheap man's nvidia shield (Lapdock)

    Actually the title of this thread is misleading as the streaming from pc concept of the shield was my inspiration to this. To start at the beginning, I wanted the ability to play games or use my desktop pc in my TV room but in a small form factor (As I already have hdmi/usb 1.1 ran to that...

    CPU being eaten by video card

    Just want to pick your brains, I have been trying to fix an old Dell Dimension XPS. At first I thought there was some malware or some nasty virus eating up the CPU resources but after a total wipe and reinstall of the OS, I have determined the video card is the issue. The processor on this...

    Wanted some advice on what video card would be best with a Q9450 @ 2.66 (I suppose I could overclock it if nets me better options) Wondering what would be the best performance choice before hitting a bottleneck. Thanks (And I don't need a new video card right away, if the 7xxx series...

    4870 Issue

    4870 and WC3

    Hmm, seems that this older game doesn't seem to run to well on the 4870. Every other game runs fine.. Checking the FPS, it seems it is going at 60 fps, I intentionally have vsync enabled. Yet I see tearing. Anyone else having this issue?

    Dell SP2208WFP

    Sorry for not putting this in the LCD thread, but ... I have been looking around for the "perfect" monitor, obviously such a thing does not exist. But the specs following the SP2208WFP are pretty damn close to fitting my category. My expectations are retarded being how I am one of those...

    Just wondering

    I have a HTPC with a http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811163081 case and psu. I am wondering if this would have enough power to handle a (939) Athlon 64 X2 4200+, 2gb of ram, 1 SATA 250GB harddrive and *drumroll* a 3750 Radeon. No plans to have a optical drive nor a...
