Looking for some feedback on a few final pieces of a new Sandy build. I have a few components already, so my budget is only for the final pieces. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Aside from the normal daily web browsing; Gaming, Web Development and...

So this weekend I'll be ordering the final parts for my Sandy Bridge build. Upgrading from the following to a ground-up 2500k system. Only pieces that will be reused are the peripherals and the case. So, now I have these parts to put together a HTPC: e6420 w/ AC7 Pro MSI P6N Platinum...

I just finished my first new build in 6 years (see sig) and I won some money at a poker tourney this week so I was considering adding onto it a bit. I'd like to add a 74gb raptor, but it was suggested to me that I might be better off adding it as a secondary/slave drive instead of doing a fresh...

The Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro is back in stock at Xoxide for 24.99. Just a heads up for anyone who was looking for one. I just picked one up this afternoon. :) http://www.xoxide.com/arctic-cooling-freezer-7-pro.html

Here's my setup that I'll be buying this weekend: e6420 MSI P6N SLI Platinum 2 GB G.Skill DDR800 EVGA 8800GTS Western Digital WD3200KS X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Samsung 18x SATA DVD Burner Corsair 620HX Silverstone TJ09 4 x 120MM Yate Loons w/ Blue LED AC Freezer 7 Pro Not looking for "OMG wait for...

Finally ordering my new machine this week. It's all going to be based around an e6420 and a P6N Platinum that I'll (in theory) be overclocking to 3 - 3.2ghz on air. I'm leaning towards the AC7 Pro for my heatsink, but I'm not sure if it will adequately cool my CPU. It's all going in a TJ09...

Need some knowledge on this guy: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151141 I know its a good drive, I've done the research, but I'm anxious to know if anyone has seen a silver bezel for it somewhere? I was getting a Black TJ09 so it wasn't a problem, but the silver TJ09...

I woke up this morning and my monitors power light was slowly blinking yellow. I couldn't get it to go green and come on, so I turned it off and reset my machine. The machine powered up again and the monitor clicked on.. then everything on the bios screen started flashing green like it was...

I just finished setting up a small network (1 Desktop, 1 Laptop on WiFi and 1 shared printer) however, I ran into a problem. For some reason the desktop recognizes the laptop and its shared files, however the laptop does not recognize the network and allow me access to the desktop shared files...

Well after some research I've narrowed my selection down to the following options: Opt 1: 1x 150GB Raptor (OS, Apps, Games) 1x 320GB Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200KS (Media Storage / Page file) Option 2: 2x 250GB Western Digital WD2500KS The deciding factors here are noise...

Sorry if this has been posted already. Feel free to bitch and moan and reply "search.." if it has been. Dailytech. :)

Yeah yeah there's been 100 of them, I appologize for adding to the mayhem. I'll make this short. For my conroe build, I'm leaning towards this ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231073 Uncertain as to which Mobo I'm going to use, as I might wait for NF5 and...

For my build I'm trying to decide between the following setups: 2 x WD2500KS 250GB drives or 1 x 74 GB WD Raptor + 1 x WD4000KS 400GB Drive (I know this choice is more expensive, so I'm kinda leaning towards my first option) The system I'm building is running off Conroe and wont...

My new system is going on order in a couple weeks, and I'm working out the final spots in my order. So far I'll be going with: X2 4400 MSI Diamond Plus x32 SLI Dual 7800GTs 2GB G.Skill DDR400 Enermax Noisetaker 600w 2 Maxline 3 250GB's and a NEC ND-3550A DVD-RW As for my case, It's a...

Building my new box sometime after christmas, and I'm 90% set in the components other than my mobo/video card combination. Right now I'm trying to decide if the A8N32-SLI is a good investment if I'm not going to be upgrading again for another year at least. So right now I these are my options...

Well I'm one of the few on this board that arent part of the overclocking phenomenon :p and my question is this: If I dont plan to overclock, would I be better off with 2gb of XMS corsair PC4000 DDR500 like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145596 or Should I...

Just curious if anyone had heard or knows of a competitor for the A8N32. I don't mean the DFI, Asus, or MSI boards that run 16x (summed) in SLI, I mean boards that run 32x in SLI. With my new box I'm planning on running dual 512GTX's and space as well as heating is an issue for me considering...

Well I think my current system has run its course and it's time for my standard 2 year overhaul. Most of the time I upgrade parts as I feel necessary, but I feel this is a good time to leap from 4x AGP to 16x PCI-e as well as dual core. Current specs: 2600XP+ KT3 Ultra 2 Mobo 120GB WD 8mb...

I've decided that my 2600XP isnt cutting the mustard anymore, so I'm gonna hop on the A64 train. I know I'm going for SLI, but the real question is coming down to which direction I want to go with the CPU. I'm not sure if I want to bite the bullet and go for a 4000+, or if I want to wait and...

Finally upgrading my system. I'm planning on going SLI and was hoping for some input from someone other than my roommate who insists he knows everything about everything, haha. Anyway.. its a toss up between: 2 x http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130215 or 2 x...

I've owned my iPod for about a year and a half and its been great. But the other day after the battery was recharged, I plugged it into my PC to transfer some new tracks but iTunes wasn't recognizing my iPod. It was there in windows explorer.. but for some reason I couldnt access it from...
