    Best 2.0/2.1 System for Under $1000

    Great, thanks for everyone's replies. Right now I'm looking at the A5s, the Bx5 Deluxe, JBL LSR4326P, and the BeoLab 4s (still, I love the looks haha).

    Best 2.0/2.1 System for Under $1000

    Thanks for the reply. You're right, I meant to say I want a flat sound. I will definitely go and listen to some of these first before buying. Pardon the total ignorance, but will these monitors be a lot more accurate than some of the stuff intended for home listening (like the BeoLab 4s)...

    Best 2.0/2.1 System for Under $1000

    Basically, here's my scenario. I really only use my PC for entertainment because I don't have a TV (I move around a lot so it just doesn't make sense). I have the system in my sig, a PS3, and a unibody Macbook Pro that I primarily use for everything. So, I would like the system to work with all...

    X3350 or Q9450, which OC's better?

    Doesn't the Xeon reach stock speeds at a lower voltage? Thus, it would have more potential within the voltage constraints of the silicon?

    GX2, Crysis, and X48 problem?

    Have you tried removing your overclock to see if that is the culprit?

    Confirmed: Q9450 not fully compatible with ASUS P5K and others

    Okay so after two pages of arguing, are there any confirmed answers? I was about to sell my E8400 to a friend and get a Q9450. But if its going to give me problems, I don't really *need* a quad core.

    790i HD Corruption Issue is Real

    Again? Wow, I was 10 minutes away from getting a 790i motherboard, I guess that's not happening. Doesn't Nvidia realize that if you're spending $300+ on a motherboard, you're probably going to be running it way out of stock specification? This is absurd.

    Can't even get to 1600fsb, what's holding me back?

    I just installed Core Temp and ran Crysis. While alt-tabbing, I found it got to about 42 degrees for core 0 and 43 degrees for core 1. While idle, core 0 is 30 degrees, core 1 is 33 degrees. Is that normal?

    Can't even get to 1600fsb, what's holding me back?

    Hey, thanks for the quick replies guys. My power supply is a Corsair HX620W. I always make sure to look the PCIe bus to 100mhz. As of right now, my temperatures are about 30-35 degrees normally and get to about 39 degrees playing Crysis. I haven't been able to get past much so far. I...

    Can't even get to 1600fsb, what's holding me back?

    I've run my voltage up to 1.25v, I've loosened my timings to 5-5-5-15 although my ram is rated for 800 anyways, and I stuck on a Scythe Ninja Mini. I'm running an E8400 on an Asus P5K-E Wifi. I just want it at 3.6ghz and it doesn't seem likely. So its either: A) My incompetence in...

    9800 gx2 heat consumption?

    I'm in a 12m x 15m university residence with my GX2. Lets just say there's no way in hell that I can game without the window wide open. For comparison, I had an 8800GT and its almost double the amount of heat just sitting there idle. However, in comparison to 2 GTX, it should be slightly less...

    I need a huge honkin' case!!!

    There is also a Silverstone TJ-09 or TJ-10 if you want a little better quality than Coolermaster.

    Physical size of the 9800GTX?

    I actually had to buy a new case just to fit the GX2, its not even funny. How is Nvidia allowed to violate ATX spec so much and get away with it?
