Great deal on this @ Microcenter @399. I wasn't too hip on the stand, so I used the stand from the Gateway FDP24 it was replacing. Perfect fit and height adjustment is just right. THe only slight issues for me is the OSD aren't great and the screen is semi reflective, but it looks great on...

Happy New Year! So I am looking for a 27" monitor, no more than $400. Any mfg I should stay away from? I don't need 3d, but HDMI would be nice (going to stick a Mac Mini on that port) and DVI. Lots of players out there I just need direction in which to steer away from bad ones. I...

I am currently running a GTX 460 and apparently BF3 won't play on it. So if I want to upgrade my card, which road to go down? I haven't used an ATI card since having a 1600XT. I would like to keep under 300. Not sure what models to get. Any pro tips? Thanks.

Instead of trying to go off hte Mac Setup thread, I would like to do a thread for you music/gear heads. If you record music, what gear do you use and what app you use to do it. I don't have a pic night now (messy desk) but I am using: Mac Pro PodXT Garageband 11 Carvin CT6M Gibson Les...

I picked up one of these bad boys a couple weeks ago @ Microcenter here in DFW. I am running it on a Sabertooth X58. So far I have it up to 3.7 on a preset in the BIOS. Looking for some more tweaks to get to 4Ghz. Post up!

Got the wife a G2 for Christmas. She currently has a G1. What is the best way to back up her info and get it on the new phone? I saw mybackpro out there, but not interested in paying for a quick and dirty. I am an iPhone user, so I am unfamiliar with Android Apps.

I was showing 12 GB on my X58, but all of a sudden I am down to 10. Hmmm......

So I swapped a Sabertooth X58 in place of a P6T SE, and while I was in there decided to so some dusting. So I blew out the whole case including the PSU. Put everyting back together, and lo and behold I get a no POST error at the VGA LED. I swap the card for a known good one. Same error. So I say...

So I upgraded to an i7 (Details in sig). I was waffling on an i7 vs. an i5. I picked all the stuff up yesterday. GOt everything swapped out and put back together. I had picked a CM Sniper case but had some issues with with the way they wired it. After some research I got everything hooked...

Anyone using the 3G iPhone with TMo's 3G network? TMo has has their 3G netowrk up and running for more than a month. From the specs, it looks like the phone can use the bandwitdth, but I haven't heard of anyone using the TMo network yet. From the TMo 3G map, it looks like I have coverage for...

So I decided to drop in a eVGA 8800 GTS in my PC last night. I didn't go for the GTX cuz that is just too damn much for a vid card. I had been running a MSI X1950 Pro w/ 256, and wasn't impressed with it. For those concerned, here is my setup: Intel E6600 @ 3.01 GHz Gigabyte GA-P965-DS3...

I have a Gigabyte GA-P965-DS3 3.3. I have installed Vista. I want to increase my HDD performance. I went in the BIOS and changed the mode from IDE to AHCI. Restarted and then got a BSOD and PC restarted. My question: Do I need to install Vista in AHCI mode or is there a way to convert to AHCI...

So I swapped my board/chip combo from an AMD X2 4600 and ASUS A8N-E to an Intel C2D E6600 and Gigabyte 965. A few things I noticed: 1. I didn't have to baby sit the install. Everything restarted when it was supposed to with out any hangs at all. 2. No Conflicts. All hardware is getting...

So this is an update to the x64 install I did this weekend. First my setup: ASUS A8N-E AMD X2 4600 (No OC yet) 2 GB Crucial DDR400 1 x SATA 160GB 1x SATA 250 GB 1 x SATA 500 GB Sony DVD Plextor 755SA burner MSI X1950Pro ATI TV Wonder 650 Creative X-Fi I installed Vista x64...

Soooo.... I bit the bullet and am upgrading to Vista Ultimate X64. I was running it under 32bit, and things were sorta Ok, but i wanted to take advantage of the extra memory I had hanging around. So long story short, I think my ATI TV Wonder 650 is not working right with the Vista 64...

Hey guys I don't post here a lot but thought I would drop a line a hit up a Vista upgrade review. I wanted to do an upgrade since I think that is what a majority of people are going to do. Smart folks like us will do a clean install. FYI, I am an IT pro so I have have LEGALLY obtained and...
