    nVidia 8800 Windows 7 problem

    Hello, Recently I've noticed some unusual pixel flickering under Windows 7 using Gainward 8800 GT PCX. There are red pixels randomly switching on and off on some dark areas of the screen. First I thought it was definitely a graphic card problem but then I realized that I didn't see any of these...

    Realtek 889a vs VIA VT1828s vs Realtek 888

    Hello, Before reading a P55 mobos review at the TechReport I though that Realtek 889a and VIA VT1828s should perform the same but it looks like 889a scores a point better in almost all of the RightMark Audio Analyzer benchmark. I am not familiar with RightMark and don't know if the scores...

    Primary vs Logical Partitions

    Hi, Are there any differences between primary and logical partitions from data safety point of view. What would be better - creating 4 primary partitions or one primary and one extended with 3 logical partitions inside the extended one? (I need one primary to boot my OS.) I read somewhere...

    Corsair HX620W vs ThermalTake Toughpower CableMan. 700W

    Hello, Which one would you recommend? Corsair HX620W for £80 or Thermaltake 700W for £70 They both feature modular design, 600W is plenty of power for me and I would like to get a PSU that is as quiet as possible. How do Corsair and Thermaltake compare in terms of quality and reliability...

    New 8800GT came without anti-static bag - is it normal?

    Hi, I just received a new Gainward 8800gt 512MB PCX graphic card and to my surprise the card was only packed inside the box using bubble wrap without any anti-static bag. I am a bit worried for I have never received a graphic card before (or a motherboard) without anti-static wrapping and am...

    ULTRASTAR A7K1000 500GB + recommended 320GB drive

    Hi, Can't find any benchmarks of the Hitachi ULTRASTAR A7K1000 500GB drive on the net. Any idea how it performs? It looks great on paper and the bigger 1TB brother runs like a dream but what about 500GB version? Do you think it's gonna be comparable with 1TB? Also, it is quite pricey. I think...

    H-IPS vs S-IPS

    Are there big differences between H-IPS A-TW panels (as used in NEC 2690WUXi or new iMac) and older S-IPS (used in HAZRO HZ24W, NEC 2490WUXi or NEC LCD20WGX2)? Anyone had a chance to compare them? Not sure if it's worth waiting for more H-IPS monitors available or just stick with the older...

    Hazro HZ24W review comments... and NEC 20WGX2

    Hi, I am considering getting either NEC 20WGX2 or Hazro's 24'' S-IPS model. I know that there are kind of different sizes :) but as there isn't a good, reasonably priced 24'' IPS monitor I think I may not upgrade to the next size up just yet. Anyway, after reading Hazro HZ24W review I have a...

    Biostar 945G Micro 775 SE - anyone?

    Hi, Has anyone used/overclocked this board? Is it any good? The Biostar web page specification says that it has sth called WarpSpeeder which consists of Hardware Monitor, OverClock and OverVoltage.

    Abit LG-81 and Intel Core2 Duo

    Hello, Does anyone know if Abit LG-81 will work with Core2 Duo processors? It has Intel 945G chipset so theoretically it should support them but I can't find any information on that and all the official specifications don't list Core2 Duo. Thank's a lot in advance for your answers. czajunia
