Hey everyone!
I'm looking to upgrade to an i5-4670 or i5-4570 with this motherboard:
GIGABYTE GA-H97M-D3H LGA 1150 Intel H97 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

I'll be recycling parts from my current build...
I've tried with both the side panel on and off and that makes no difference. I don't think it's an overheating issue, as I've been monitoring temperatures and they are not unusual.
Another thing I've noticed this week is that sometimes when I bump my desk, the computer shuts down. Something's...
Update:
So I cleaned and re-seated the CPU heatsink/fan and, initially, it seemed to fix everything. Everything worked fine for a few days, but the same symptoms showed up again. I'm also noticing that on some occasions, when I press the power button, it starts for a second, then shuts off, and...
GENIUS! I'll try to locate the original stock cooler. It's probably in a box somewhere...
I'm also aware that "pull everything out and reseat it well" is a good place to start, but I've definitely been procrastinating it.
Thanks for your suggestion. I'm starting to feel optimistic after...
Thanks for your suggestions, guys. I guess I haven't been able to COMPLETELY rule out how securely the cpu/heatsink is attached.
I'll get some thermal compound soon and try re-seating it, as well as checking my RAM. It's been a little while for me but is Arctic Silver 5 still the way to go...
Hello friends,
I've had my computer (the one in my signature) for over four years. As of two weeks ago, it's been randomly shutting down. Sometimes it shuts down after a few hours of gaming, sometimes it shuts down a few seconds after booting and requires several attempts to start, and...
Hey everyone,
I have an i7 920 with a Xigmatek HDT-S1283 in an Antec Mini P180 and was wondering if anyone knew if this fan duct would fit on my heatsink:

I know it's very unlikely that any of you have both this exact duct and the S1283, but if...
Hello everyone!
I recently built an i7 computer and would like to overclock it. It's been a few years since I've done any overclocking (Opteron 165), and even then I was at best an amateur.
Here is my build:
Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz
w/ Xigmatek HDT-S1283
w/ Scythe S-Flex 1200rpm 120mm...
Does the 32RV530U have any ghosting issues?
I bought the Sceptre X32BV-FullHD from Costco recently and am using it as a computer monitor. I've noticed slight ghosting in everything I do. Significant ghosting when looking at fences in Half Life 2, in the trees in Crysis, and even some ghosting...
What types of PSU's are you guys getting for this case? The ones with a 120mm top intake fan, or the ones with two 80mm fans (one intake out exhaust)?
I'm confused about the 120mm fans on top because of the HD cage.
I've been sitting on my hands and waiting just like you're doing, but just this morning I bought the eVGA 8800GTS with $30MIR and free supreme commander. Just do it! :D
...i hope i don't regret it... im sort of feeling advance regret :(
The Supreme Commander for free combo is also available for the 640MB model, which is 340AR.

So far from what I've read, you'll notice the most difference between the 320MB and 640MB if you have a monitor resolution higher than...
I currently have the ASRock 939Dual-SATAII which features both an AGP slot and a PCI-Express slot. I'm running with an Opteron 165 at 2.2Ghz, 1 Gig of Corsair budget memory, and a BFG 6800GT AGP all in an Antec P150. I was wondering...
1)What type of performance boost should I be expecting...
I recently bought myself an 8GB iPod nano using christmas money and put some music into it. After only a day of putting my own music, not to mention the music I will want from my friends, It's already filled up to 5 gigs! I really love the way the nano looks, its anodized black aluminum and its...
You register the game-key to a Guild Wars account, so he's actually selling the account. Especially since you don't need the actual retail game to play; you can download it.
Okay, im going through my final stages of OC-ing.
I'm running the 0610 on an ASRock 939Dual-SATA2
with a Zalman CNPS9500, and Corsair Value Select
2x512mb DDR400.
First I tried using the OCWorkbench beta bios, but
that totally didn't work. So, i thought maybe i'd try
the newest BIOS and...
This mobo only has three dividers. 1/1, 6/5, and 3/2.
I'm gonna try to flash the bios with the bios that
OCWorkbench made. Apparently theres a barrier in
the HTT, and I want to check whether or not i've hit
it.

I remember reading somewhere that once you've picked up the ring,
the quest moves on to the next step, which tells you to talk to the lady.
From there, you can just drop the ring, and don't need to bring it to her.
Yeah, so... follow your map marker? I didn't find this out untill I did went...
I've seen posts about overclocking with this motherboard,
and I've seen people talk about how the HTT is capped at 275
with BIOS versions 1.3 and above, and something about
modded BIOS' that allow you to break that barrier?
I was wondering, does anyone have experience with this?
And, is...
Hello friends!
I just put together a computer with the following:
Opteron 165 (CCBBE 0610DPMW)
ASRock 939Dual-SATA2
Zalman CNPS9500 LED
and Corsair Value Select 1GB(2x512) PC3200 (2.5-3-3-8)
It's all inside of an Antec P150 with a NeoHE 430watt PSU
Now, I went on a little adventure...
Yeah, the 4 long screws that came with the 9500 fit fine into the backplate.
The guy wasnt going to charge me, but he looked pretty hard for them, so
I decided to give him a few dollars.
Wow, i went to a local PC store, and they had extras laying around.
He said that he usually throws them away, and that i was lucky.
I got it for a few dollars. It's installed now! Thanks
