    $100 Gift Card with purchase of Xbox 360 at Toys R Us

    Pretty much everybody sells the 360 and its accessories for the same price. It's just the extra deals adding games and gift cards such as this, that make it worth your while. I'm getting a 360 this Christmas and this is the best deal I can find. I plan on spending the gift card on another...

    Laptop?

    Thanks for the comments guys. From reviews of the dv2000t, it seems that the touchpad buttons aren't built well and the battery life will barely hit 2hrs on high brightness and internet usage. I don't think I can deal with that. The Averatec is supposedly stocked at Staples, Bestbuy...

    Laptop?

    What about the Averatec 4200? It can be had for under $700, has decent specs, small, portable, light, and looks like a Windows MacBook.

    Laptop?

    I don't have a Microcenter anywhere near me, but I just wanted to go to bestbuy to take a look at the notebook itself, not actually buy it (get a better price online). I also just saw the hp pavilion dv2120us which appears to be about the same in size as the dell and compaq, fitting my specs...

    Laptop?

    Taking a look at some reviews... the best option seems to be the Dell e1405. The price is good, it looks nice, weighs about as much as more expensive ultra portable laptops, good performance, etc. I have noticed that the Compaq Presario V3000Z has everything that the Dell has, with better...

    Just normal stuff. I'll take a look at anything that fits into the specs I listed.

    Laptop?

    After visiting these forums for over a year I haven't seen that Notebook forum 'till just now :Q Laptop will be used for movies, music, internet, etc. Nothing too intense. I'm going to post this in the Notebook forum, a mod can delete this thread if needed.

    6600GT - 2 Monitors + TV Out?

    I was just going to use the monitor to display video from my computer. Actually, I wanted to use Slingbox on the computer and put the video on the TV instead of the monitor.

    6600GT - 2 Monitors + TV Out?

    I have a 6600GT AGP... right now I'm using both video outs for monitors. I still have the tv-out unoccupied and want to connect this thru S-video to my TV as a 3rd monitor. The only problem is that my drivers/software aren't letting me use all 3 screens at the same time. If their is some kind of...

    New TV

    Ok. Considering this is going to be a Christmas gift maybe they will have some 10-25% off deals going on then, and I'll stop by.

    New TV

    I've been thinking about getting a new TV in my room. Right now I have a 24" Apex TV. Nothing special, standard definition, mono sound, and curved screen. I was hoping for something a little bigger, like 27-30". HD isn't needed, but if it could be done it would be nice. I'm on a budget of...

    Losing monitor connection

    I have an older computer up and running with Windows, and after about 30min or so of being on, the monitor will act like it was unplugged from the computer (lost signal). Right after it loses its signal I can just restart the computer manualy and everything will be fine. Another thing is that...

    My final rig, need help!!

    That PSU has plenty of power...but a 430W Seasonic S12 could run that system for a lot longer (probably)...seeing as the Goodpower won't be able to power the 8800GTS in SLi, it would be better to get one of these: http://tinyurl.com/fyax4 Seasonic S12 430W w/ PCI-E...

    Can I use a spliter for 6-pin PCI-E connector?

    Yep, it'll work fine.

    Most pumps will pull less then 10W on either the 12V or 5V rail. Usually +12V though.

    New Build

    The 8800 series probably wont fit into the Solo (I have a Solo). Good pick on the PSU, it will handle the parts great.

    Dirty deed? You tell me.

    No, you can't do that. It's illegal and as others mentioned, they will probably check the serial numbers.

    Nothing happens when I turn on the power

    Have you made sure that the power switch on the case is connected to the motherboard properly?

    New PC Build since the millennium

    For that exact system a 450W PSU is overkill. A Enhance ENP 400W would run it great. For more upgrading room a Corsair HX520W can handle pretty much any system with one GPU.

    Antec Solo arrived today..

    I just put all my parts into my new Solo! The HD mounting system with all the doors was a little difficult.. but the manual had everything I needed. I'm loving the clean look, and my system is quite a bit quieter then before.

    Getting New PSU

    Remotely the same in quality? Fairly. I don't put PC P&C that much higher then Seasonic on my recommended PSUs list. Especially because an Emacs/Zippy will probably last longer anyway.

    need a PSU + suggestions

    The 400W Strider has very weak 12V rails for a 400W PSU. Just a thought :D
