Before I get to my boring story, I just want to ask if you guys have the kind of bad experience with the ASUS CS as I did?
Boring story:

Didn't see a thread about it here, so I figure I might as well share the news: Thermalright HR-03/R600 is finally out for those of us in North America.
Both NCIX and Jab-tech have them:

Hey guys:
It has been over a year now since I built the system in my sig. Since then, I have changed the gfx card to a 7800GTX 512MB, added a BenQ DVD-DL burner, and 1 (soon to be 2) seagate 7200.10 400GB HDD.
The system has been running 100% stable at 2.65GHz. But lately I am getting...

Seems there are a lot of logitech mice users out there. However, if there is a problem with the mice that we own, I found that it is hard to find good info on the web that offer solutions (mostly people complaining)

After much...
Okay so I just got a new system, and I am wondering if I should spend the money to get a X-Fi card.
I have a Hercules Game Theater XP (yes very very old :) ) used to love the card, until I got too lazy to move it around during my college years...
I am wondering if any of you still use this...
Hey all:
After much reading everywhere i decided that the 520W powerstream would be my best choice. However, i noticed that today while running the S&M test the 12V rail was detected by S&M to drop to 10.7V! Now is this a problem with the tester or did I end up with a bad PSU?
there is...
Hi all:
Been a lurker here for a while reading and learning stuff, preping for my next build.
