Thanks. What headphones would you recommend?

Do I lose the increased audio fidelity benefits of the Core3D processor in my Sound Blaster Z when I use a USB wireless headset like the Logitech G930?

Good call, I will do so. I was also debating on whether or not it was worth it to upgrade my headphones (e.g. Astro A40 2013 edition for $150)...

I just bought a new Sound Blaster Z card after using integrated audio on my new build for the last year. I have been using Tritton AX720 headphones which came with a Dolby Digital II 5.1 Mix Amp to simulate surround sound. With the new Z card, should I be using the Mix Amp and connecting via...

I do have SLI enabled, but my PhysX option is set to Auto Select. Should I maybe force it to the CPU? I am at work now and unfortunately cannot test it until later tonight.

Thanks grambo! Now I just need a good deal on a 3770K and Sabertooth Z77 combo so I don't feel guilty pulling the trigger :)

Thanks Solid!

I'm thinking of picking up the Asus Sabertooth Z77 and an Intel Core i7-3770K and still using my Corsair H50 cooler and Tsunami Dream case. Any thoughts? I would like to upgrade to the Corsair 800D case but it's a little big for the space I have.

Judging by the fact that I have the highest 3DMark11 score (P8680) when filtering results by my processor (Intel Core i5 Processor i5-650), I am guessing my score is being CPU limited. My sig is up to date with my system. Yes, I have 2 x EVGA GTX 670's in SLI and am running a first gen Core i5...

I mean single digits... I'm usually the first to load the map but if I'm joining a game its nearly impossible to defend myself for a good 20 seconds.

I just built a new rig and Black Ops runs really slow for the first 30 seconds, even at low detail, then runs perfect. Here's my new setup: Asus P7P55D-E Pro Intel Core i5 650 @ 3.6GHz Corsair H50 CPU Cooler OCZ 4GB DDR3-1333 OCZ Agility 2 120GB SSD Seagate 2TB HDD Palit GeForce GTX 460...

Bump

So my power button is loose and I called up Dell to see what they could do. After 45 minutes on the phone the "technical support" agent decided to replace the monitor with a 2407WFP-HC. I am aware that its the same monitor with a different backlight which increases the color gamut to 92%. I play...

Anyone still have their order pending? I do :)

I have an extra XBOX 360 Pro that I just got back from Microsoft. I haven't used it and would like to sell it or trade it for a Nintendo Wii. PM me.Located in SoCal
