It's amazing how much bass these put out. I use the pure audio mode on my Onkyo which basically disables the sub for me and you would swear the sub was on. Very efficient speakers.

Corsair 650d. I love that case. Great cable management, easy to install components, well constructed, good airflow, check it out.

Thanks man. Do you know any fans that light up that would fit in the case perfectly? :cool:

Sorry if this has been answered before, but what are some good fans to replace the front one and top ones with? Are they easy to replace? I am enjoying the 650d very much. Well done Corsair!

I've tried opting in for the Diablo 3 Beta but I keep getting an error that basically states Blizzard could not send my system specifications. I was able to successfully create a Battle.net account, register a copy of a Blizzard game I own, but I cannot for the life of me get past the opt in...

Update was a success. I caved in. 2.06 2.11 2.06 2.11 Intel Rapid Storage Device Driver. Upgraded from 10.5.0.1007.

I am tempted to upgrade, but I keep telling myself "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." I have an OCZ Vertex 3 VTX3-25SAT3-120G drive on 2.06 firmware. OCZ forums tell me I should upgrade to 2.11 and update my Intel Rapid Storage Device Driver. When I built my computer a few days ago I installed...

3DMark Score P4824. I re-ran it last night and got somewhere along the lines of 4871.

Thanks! Any other benchmarks I should run?

CPU Temp after 30 minutes of Prime95. I ran the default test. The highs were the temps while the test was running. Ambient temp is 20°C.

Installed DX9, uninstalled my graphics card drivers. Performed a clean install through NVIDIA's installer. Deleted all the files in C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore and the winsat file in C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT because WEI wouldn't finish. I was wondering why my video card...

I love that case. So easy to install all the hardware and cable management is a breeze.

Yay, all done! 3D Mark 2011. Well that was a fun night. Parts came yesterday from NewEgg. It's been six years since I last built a machine, but I got this one to POST the first time! At first I heard this weird noise and thought the stock HSF can't be this...

Thanks dude, and what about that one in the middle that's suppose to hold the motherboard in place? Can that be removed as well if there is no hole for it to go into? :p

Might be a stupid question, but I ordered the 650d with a MSI P67A-C43 (B3). I believe that board won't use all of the pre-installed stand offs the case provides.Can the unused ones be removed easily?

If I am not going to overclock the stock HSF would be fine for the i5 right?

So awesome Danny, thanks.

What about a modular power supply? I like having the abliity to use only the cables I need. That sounds awesome. Any recommendations? Also I watched Newegg's three part video on how to build a PC. I was really impressed with this case...

I am about 40 miles from Cambridge one way. Between gas and tolls how much savings are we talking?

Damn that GPU is insane.

I read some things about SSD and BSODs/Freezing, drives failing. Are they really worth it?

Disregard the link as it doesn't point to the right build. Look at the specs below. ^ So what hardware should I get instead of the ones you disagree with? (like which SSD for example?)

What do you guys think of this build? Everything compatible? Will everything fit? Anything suggestions? Recommendations? Thanks so much in advance guys.

His music is good, but I listen mostly to Satriani, Vai, and Vinnie Moore on occasion.

Yeah, it's an Ibanez SZ520QM.

Find a movie with a scene where the camera pans slowly from left to right. Play that specific scene using the 1080p mode. Play that scene again using the 1080p/24 mode. If everything is done correctly the end result should be no "judder." The judder would be caused by 3:2 pulldown which is the...

E207WFP and 2001FP. Aquos LC-37GP1U. As for the speakers, my computer is connected to my stereo and I listen to music while sitting in my chair. I know the fronts are not positioned correctly while watching the HDTV, but I still think it sounds pretty good.

The main reasons why I got the HD-XA2 over the HD-A2 are: Superior upscaling and picture quality of the Silicon Optix Reon-VX chip, the ability to decode High-performance SHARC® DSP, Dolby® Digital Plus 5.1ch, Dolby® TrueHD 5.1ch, DTS® 5.1ch, DTS® HD (core only), CD, CD-R/-RW (CD-DA) audio...

Just got my XA2. :D

Some more pictures:

That is actually an Amherst poster.

Yeah they were all on, lol I bounced the flash.

What gave it away? :p Just kidding, I go to Fitchburg State.
