TRADED, Thanks for the offers.

Hey everyone, I've had nothing but problems with the vanilla P8P67 board from Asus. I've had 4 RMA's for this board and every single one of them has had an issue. I was playing League of Legends and started to hear a beep coming from my case, it would only happen ever so often ( never heard...

Hey guys, After 4 different motherboards and a bunch of sets of ram I've come to the conclusion that my processor is faulty. System refuses to post. I contacted Intel on Monday about getting an RMA and was asked for some info which I replied to and sent in some pictures. I haven't heard...

Hey guys, Just a quick question, just like the title says I can't seem to charge devices while my PC is off. I've been able to do this with every single board of owned since 2005. The power settings in the UEFI are pretty much non-existant. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks.

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a 120GB SSD or higher, brand doesn't matter, must have a warranty on it and must support TRIM. I'm not looking for extremely fast speeds just average for an SSD, nothing smaller than 120GB. Must be willing to ship to Canada. Looking to spend sub 200$ Please...

Hey guys, I have a couple of mobile processors that are laying around with a bunch of SoDIMM's. I was wondering if a mobile socket motherboard exists? I got a T9600 and a i540m that would be PERFECT for an HTPC. Are they good for anything OTHER than just laptops?

Hey guys, My buddy has a Galaxy 9400GT card in his HTPC, it seems to be overheating so he went out and bought an Arctic Cooling Accelero L2 Pro cooler. I'm putting on the heatsinks and then I see the VRAM sinks. I'm used to seeing VRAM's in straight lines on highend cards, I for the life...

Hey guys, I have an i5 540m mobile CPU with integrated switchable graphics. This CPU is an OEM pull from a Alienware m15x. Looking for a decent 120GB SSD, nothing smaller, don't bother with offers for lower, 256 would be awesome and I of course will add cash. PM with what you have. Pics will...

Decided to keep it.

Hey guys, I'm looking to upgrade my i5 540m to an i7 820QM but I can find an OEM that won't make a unrecoverable dent in my wallet. On ebay for example I see a lot of ES processors. They say they're tested any working, just like the retail versions. Is there any issues with processors like...

Hey guys, I'm in need of an SSD, needs to be 120GB+ and supports TRIM. Has be under warranty. I live in Canada so shipping here is a must. I need prices and pics, Pictures of the drive is a must, I don't buy stuff without actually seeing the product, I've been burned one too many times. Brand...

Hey guys, I just got an Asus 5970 from an RMA. I've had a 5970 before but it didn't run this hot, this one is lding at 49-52c @ 25% fan while my previous was idling at 43-44c. Load temps on the new one are hitting high 80's while playing games like Just Cause 2 and Dawn of war 2 and low 90's...

Hey guys, I'm having an "issue" with my 295GTX, I took off the stock thermal paste that was on the cores and used some AS5. It dropped the temps about 7-8C on each core. I'm using the EVGA Precision tool to look at the temps and it's saying that GPU1: 42C and GPU2: 45C. Is it normal for...

Hey everyone, So I want to see what the max my 295's will OC to so I can tout it when selling them later on, but the Nvidia control panel doesn't have any "auto OC" tools like the ATi CCC does. Is there anything that will slowly raise the mhz and test the stability? Also what are...

Hey guys, I'm connecting an older IDE drive I have that's been very reliable to backup some important info. Here's the weird problem, the drive will write extremely fast from SATA drives, roughly ~60MB/s which is pretty good I think for something this old. Now when I try to write the info...

Hey everyone, I currently have x2 4870x2 Trifan editions. These were replacements from the TOP 4870x2's that Asus used to offer. Recently the video would drop out of sync, card would lockup mid game and such. When I tried to RMA they told me that the part number was wrong and they made a...

Hey everyone, I'm testing out a HD4890 card my brother picked up. We're using Rivatuner to OC the card and it's pretty damn good. Only problem is that the clock speeds stay the same while idling / on the desktop. Is there a way to get it to auto down clock when not gaming like CCC does...

Hey everyone, While installing a couple of new fans on my case I heard something rattling around, After removing my video card I notice this was loose. In the pictures you can see 3 one is standing up right, one is bent and the other is completely missing. I found it in the bottom of my case...

Hey guys, hopefully this is the right forum to post this as I don't see anything specific to HDD's. I bought a Seagate 500GB 2.5" 7200.4rpm drive for my laptop a couple of months back, about 3 weeks ago while the drive would spinup from being idle I'd get a click and a high pitched beep. I...

Hey guys, I'm trying to properly overclock my new Asus Trifan cards. The CCC auto tuner is crap it spends hours and then the results are completely bogus. I let it run for 3 hours and it finally came to a conclusion of 835/1010mhz. That's without any volt modding or anything done to the...

Any of you have experience with Asus videocard RMA'ing? After I installed the Accelero Xtreme 4870x2 cooler and started to fool around with clock speeds I got the dreaded Black screen of death. I called them up they told me I had a 3yr warranty on the card. Told me to ship it to them. I...

Hey guys, This is going to be a very noob question. The socket on the videocard where the fan connector clicks into, are they all the same pin / size on ATI cards??

Hey guys, I'm trying to OC my 4870x2. I'm a bit worried about the VDDC temps, what are safe/dangerous temps. I've been getting 55-58C on core0 and 51-55C on core1 @ 820/1020. GPU cores are now idling at 41C and loads get up to just 48C. I've got an Accelero Xtreme installed for those that...

Hey everyone, I'm in the market for a Phenom 920 or 940 to complete my rig. It needs to be OEM, I don't have much money to spend but retail is out of my budget at the moment. I have a 9600BE OEM for trade if you're interested in it. I OC'd to test out how far I could push it unfortunately...

I'm looking for a good AM2+ board if it's AM3 compatible even better. It needs at least 6 SATA 2.0 ports, PCI-E X16, Integrated 7.1 sound, ATX size. I'd prefer an Asus or even a Gigabyte board but will consider other brands depending on specs/brand. You must be willing to ship to...

Hey everyone, Looking for some computer hardware. I'm located in ONTARIO, CANADA. WTB: Cheap AM2 board: Need a nice AM2 board for an HTPC I'm building, needs 5.1 sound / ethernet integrated, video would be a bonus, x16 pci-e slot required as well. FS: 2x 1GB Corsair Value...

Hey everyone, I got a bunch of stuff I want to get rid of for a nice powerful video card, I'd REALLY love an X2 HD4850 but I doubt I could afford one, so a GTX260 seems a bit more reasonable. Not picky on brands, OEM or retail doens't matter as long as the card works and there are no defects...

Hey everyone I hope I put this in the right section since it is about cooling, I installed a Scythe Katana II on AM2+ M3A ASUS board with a Phenom 9600+ BE, the CPU is not overclocked and running at the stock 2.3ghz. I used a stock heatsink from a X2 3800+ and was getting temps of 49C idle...

Hey everyone, I just got myself a Phenom 9600+ BE OEM from a user online, I need to test if the CPU is alright, problem is the CPU is OEM and has no HSF, I have a HSF coming in the mail sometime this week from NCIX.com but I want to get it tested ASAP. I was wondering, if I'm not going to OC...

Hey everyone, I bought a new case, Coolermaster CM690, I'm expecting my i7 setup to arrive any day now but I wanted to test out the case with my current mobo/cpu. I have a Gigabyte M55plus-SG3 + X2 3800+, it's a backup system. I placed the mobo in the case, connected all the front panel...

Hey everyone, If some of you remember my last thread I got a HD4850 with a Accelero twin turbo, OC'd to 690/1183 which is what ATI catalyst caps it as stable. 1mhz over those numbers and I get artifacts all over my cames. I was told by a friend in passing that volt modding/ BIOS flashing...

Hey everyone, I recently picked up a HD4850 Sapphire 512mb DDR3 video card from a forum member. The card is great and OC's VERY well on the stock cooler. I'd like to buy a Accelero S1 w/ fan sometime soon but don't really have the money for one (unless someone has one cheap?? PM me :D ) Is...

Everything Found. Thanks.

Hey everyone, This may be a long shot but I might as well "test the waters". I have a Dell M1530 beautiful little machine, it has a nice T7250 Core 2 Duo CPU running at 2.0ghz. It's nice and all but I need a little more power as I use the machine to render and encode stuff. I'm looking...

Hey guys, Since my hunt for a Asus G1S was a complete flop I've done some research and landed on a M1530, they look stylish, they're haver very good specs and are quality built (from the reviews at least). I'm looking to spend around 1000$ or do a partial trade with my HP DV6338SE. Here are...

Hey everyone, I need a new laptop. Basically something that's portable and able to game. I was looking into buying an ASUS G1S or a Dell XPS 1530 notebook. Here's the specs I'm looking for: C2D T series at least T7300 15.4" screen 1440x900 would be nice anything more than that would be...

Hey everyone, I have an HP DV6338SE (DV6000 series), problem is the screen was destroyed in a car accident as well as the bezel being cracked The 1gb of DDR2 Ram is good, the motherboard seems to be good, the CPU is a Turion X2 TL-56 1.8GHz, Wifi adaptor works, 160GB SATA HDD (though I'm...
