    My current DFI Lanparty JR X58-T3H6 is dying and I'm looking for a replacement! Would prefer MicroATX but ATX is fine, too. Thank you for your time!

    Random shutdown while upright, fine on its side; not overheating

    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...

    Random shutdown while upright, fine on its side; not overheating

    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...

    Random shutdown while upright, fine on its side; not overheating

    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...

    Random shutdown while upright, fine on its side; not overheating

    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...

    Random shutdown while upright, fine on its side; not overheating

    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...

    CPU Duct

    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: http://www.frozencpu.com/cpu-tri-26.html I know it's very unlikely that any of you have both this exact duct and the S1283, but if...

    Thanks for the responses! What would an unreasonable amount of voltage be? What amount(s) of voltage would be within reason?

    Help me OC my i7 920

    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...

    Toshiba REGZA 37RV530U for Computer Monitor

    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...

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    Does the HD cage obstruct the front 120mm exhaust fan much?

    I got my LianLi PC-A05B ! it's Small!

    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.

    The Supreme Commander for free combo is also available for the 640MB model, which is 340AR. http://www.newegg.com/product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814130071 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...

    Return 8GB nano for 30GB video?

    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.

    Brand New Opty 165 Stepping CCBBE 0610DPMW New "BB" Memory Controller

    I think the OCWBeta BIOS' give me more voltages and memory dividers, too. I'm going to go do that now.

    Help me OC my Opteron 165!

    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. http://www.overclock.net/amd-bios/73811-asrock-939dual-sata2-beta-bios.html...

    Help me OC my Opteron 165!

    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...

    Installing CNPS9500 on my ASRock 939Dual

    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.
