Ok, here's the specs: Q6600 Corsair HX520W PSU 8800GT Gigabyte DSR2 Mobo 2x750 GB WD HDDs (raid 0) Sony DVD drive Computer worked for about two years. Now, it does not even post, but ALL the fans (psu fan, cpu fan, gpu fan) work. This made me believe it was either a cpu or mobo issue...

Some background: I installed what I thought were the right raid drivers onto the hdds and set up a RAID0. But, after booting the computer, it said one of the hdds had an error. So, i disconnected the other hdd and ran the WD diagnostic check on the hdd. It said it was fine, so I'm assuming i...

I've done research, but I'm still completely lost about sata raid. Basically, I just want to get two 500gb hdds and combine them using raid (to allow 1gb of storage). Also, I was wondering if anyone could reccomend a microATX board that could achieve this. I'm completely ignorant of how sata...

Here are the specs: E6600 Gigabyte DS3 2GB Crucial Ballistix Corsair 620HX 8800GTS 160GB WD 7200RPM The computer was fine earlier today, but when I turned it on at around 5, it wouldn't get past the bios boot screen. If I click delete, it will enter the menu for the bios options, but...

I purchased something online and they included a tax... Can they include a tax if it doesn't ship from the state I live in? I was under the impression that they could only charge for tax if it shipped from the state I lived in... Thanks, -Juce

I have a 620HX... It came with a couple 4-pin molex connectors that say fan-only. So, I used these to power the two fans in my old case. I recently bought an Antec Ninehundred and it has a ton of fans. My question is... can I use the regular 4-pin molex connectors to power the fans or do I...

I'm thinking about cutting some holes in my case to make room for a fan. I don't want the edges to be all sharp and stuff so I was wondering if anyone knows if they sell some kind of rubber sutff or something that can wrap around the edges to make it look nice and prevent it from being sharp...

My friend pointed out to me that some people are having problems with the pins on the back of the ds3 touching metal backplate of the tuniq tower 120 (which I happened to see AFTER I installed my tuniq tower...). I already have mine installed and didn't have this problem. I'm kind of scared...

Ok, the VX2025WM (which I thought was discontinued) is now in stock at newegg. Do you guys think I should go through the hassle of the panel lottery or play it safe with the 2025WM? I plan on doing some gaming as well as photoshop and some CAD work. According to the LCDbuyersguide over at...

Ok, my friend is planning on building a computer and consulted me because I recently just built mine. His budget is around 1000ish and he plans on using it mostly for gaming. He also doesn't plan on overclocking. He also plans on keeping his harddrive and case. This is the system I created...

I've tried various overlocks with my DS3 rev 2 (F7) and E6600 and I can't seem to hit 3.6... I've been able to sometimes get it to boot at 8x450 and 9x400 but it definitely isn't stable. There's basically no way I can hit it with a 9 multi, as I've pumped up the vcore all the way up to 1.525...

I'm just wondering... is it recommended to run orthos with atitool? I overclocked my cpu and gpu and when I run either program independently, they never fail. But, when I run both of them together it gives me problems. Is it wise to run them together or can I get away with running them...

Hello, I have a DS3 with an E6600 and the north bridge gets ridiculously hot. I also have a Zalman 9500 cooling my CPU. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any north bridge heat sinks and know if they would fit on my board or not. I've been looking at a few and the Zalman NBF 47 and the...
