    Hi guys & gals, My old 26" acer finally died so I went out and got a Samsung SyncMaster 305T. It's a gorgous 30" lcd. When I first hooked it up, it did nothing but display the color test pattern (cycling between black, white, red, green, blue). Even in the BIOS display. I hooked up a...

    Hi, I have two Athlon 64 systems (not overclocked, air cooled with Tuniq T-120-LFB) that are overheating.... Bear in mind that due to the heat wave in southern california it's been well over 100 degrees F in the room for a good 2-3 hours a day. Right now room temp is 107 (yes I'm dying in...

    Card Suggestion

    Hey guys and girls, I'm putting together my dream system (Core2 E6700) and I need suggestions for a video card. I was looking at the 7950GX2 Dual-GPU cards, but the motherboard I like is an ASUS P5W-DH Deluxe, which as I understand can only use one of the GPUs on those cards, so that's a...
