This thing has the shittiest keyboard I've ever used . . . scrabble-tile type keys that fall off if you speak harshly at them . . . which you will, since they're so shitty. I'm missing half a dozen keys now; I see new replacement keyboards on ebay for $16 but I don't want the nightmare to...

Has anyone used one of these gadgets? I know they're pretty limited and rough around the edges, but there's a used one for sale cheap -- just wondering what the general consensus is -- worth $65 Cdn for novelty value/farting around, or so useless I should avoid it at any price?

Where to begin? I have never hated a piece of hardware like I hate this thing. I bought it to take with my laptop on trips so as not to risk losing my expensive MX Rev. I soon regretted the purchase. First, the flash memory feature. I've never found it useful, and it makes the usb...

I just bought a used 4870X2 and discovered that my psu only has 2 6-pin connectors and the card's original owner lost the 8-pin pci-e adapter. I can't find an adapter locally and it'll cost me over $20 -- and more importantly, take a week -- to get one shipped. Now forgive me if this is...

Anyone have any experience with these? I've bought other refurb parts in the past (mostly CRTs and cameras) and been happy with them. I'm currently being tempted by a refurb 275T that's $350 cheaper than the lowest price on a new one . . .

Do these cards do this properly? My 8800 doesn't do lcd scaling worth crap with this monitor and this could be a make or break feature for my next upgrade.

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9106633#Specifications Can't find much info on this model, but $947 seems like a stupidly low price for a 42" 1080p.

Here's a noob question: what does the 3rd wire do? Does it just send the rpm signal? Can you just hook a 3 pin fan to power and ground and not use the 3rd wire?

www.reachdata.ca ncix.com pricematched it and retained their cheap express shipping. Got one on the way for $85 total, best local price was about $145 with tax :D

I'm quite happy with this. Ran Orthos overnight, accidentally left voltage at 1.54 from when I was trying to hit 4 ghz, but it's stable at 1.44 at 3.7. Don't know why CPU-Z is showing such a low voltage, it does that regardless of load. Now I guess it's time to overclock the ram a bit. Also...

I need this info for the OC database but my cpu is lapped and I no longer have the box. Is there any other place I might find this info?

I just ran the Cinebench scene render benchmark with my new Q6600. I'm a 3dsmax user myself but I chose Cinebench because it does a single-cpu baseline test as well. Interesting results: My previous system, Athlon XP 2500+ oc 3200+: 89 seconds Q6600 (stock speed) single core baseline...

http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=23485&promoid=1078 Only $69.99 Cdn until next Tuesday. Hell, for only 5 bucks more than the Ultra-120 Extreme it's worth it just for the cool factor. Only 14 left in stock after I ordered mine :p

Sorry guys, yet another "help me choose a case" thread. But I've got some fairly specific requirements. First, it has to comfortably fit an Ultra 120 Extreme heatsink. Second, I'd like room to run ducts to and from the heatsink, from an intake in front (maybe side would work), to an exhaust...

I've heard something or other about guys with 2gb getting better overclocks than guys with 4. Is this true, and if so is it a matter of having 4 sticks of ram vs 2, ie would 2 x 2gb give better results than 4 x 1gb (everything else being equal)? Fwiw, I'll be using an IP35 Pro/Q6600/Ultra...
