Gelid Icy Vision vs. Accelero Twin Turbo

I just received an XFX reference 6870 to replace a dead 5850, but my Thermalright T-Rad won't fit on the 6870. I did some research on Google and the 2 coolers in the subject caught my interest. What I like about the Icy Vision is that I can use the stock heatplate for cooling the memory and...

How to split 5.1 sound between PS3 and computer?

I currently have a Logitech G51 speaker system, a PS3 and an Intel DP45SG motherboard. The PS3 is connected to a Dell 2709W via HDMI. How would I go about splitting the analog 5.1 inputs on the G51 between the DP45SG and the PS3 without damaging anything? Both sources may occassionally output...

Need help choosing memory

I am currently running a D975XBX2 and I am looking to upgrade to 4GB of memory. My top priorities are stability, reliability, and manufacturer support, but I'm not looking to dig to the bottom of the barrel for performance. I am currently using 2GBs of Mushkin XP2 DDR2-800 at 4-4-3-10 @ 2.0V and...

NEC LCD2070NX vs LCD2090UXi

I'm using a Dell 2001FP right now with the LG.Philips LM201U04 S-IPS panel and I've been spoiled; I don't want to look back at anything else. IPS is the only way to go for me, and I don't feel like playing the lottery with HP or Dell. This is also another reason why I'm not letting go of my IBM...

NEC LCD2070NX vs LCD2090UXi

An extra 3-400 dollars for insurance and perfection...no thanks. I'll just buy a new monitor if anything. I've read reports of this monitor emitting a high pitched noise when there is solid white on the screen such as when viewing web pages. Have you experienced this?

NEC LCD2070NX vs LCD2090UXi

I just got off the phone with NEC again and the person I talked to this time confirmed that it's an IPS. So, does anyone know what the major differences are between the 2090 and 2070 that make the 2090 cost a few hundred bucks more?

NEC LCD2070NX vs LCD2090UXi

I just got off the phone with NEC, and the person on the phone told me that the LCD2070NX isn't IPS. I asked him what panel it uses and he told he didn't know, but it's not IPS. I'm going to call back later and hopefully get someone more knowledgeable.

NEC LCD2070NX vs LCD2090UXi

I'm going to be buying one of these monitors, but before I do, I have a couple of questions. First, does the 2070NX use only S-IPS matrices and nothing else? I know that Dell and HP and maybe a few other manufacturers use the bait-and-switch tactic; does NEC do this? Second, I will be using the...

Converting Windows 2003 Server to router...how?

JackMDS, I have gone through at least 5 routers within the past 3 years. No router I buy ever wants to last longer than a year. I bought a D-Link DGL-4300 about a month ago and the wireless connection is already starting to drop. I know that if I turn my server into a router, it would be far...

Converting Windows 2003 Server to router...how?

For the time being, there will only be two client PCs connected to the network and a few laptops connected wirelessly, but I'd like to keep options open for as many as 10 wired PCs for occassions such as LAN parties. If possible, I'd like for the 2 client PCs connected directly to the server so...

Converting Windows 2003 Server to router...how?

I currently have a file/print server using Windows 2003 Server and would like to convert it into a router while still retaining its file/print serving duties. I'll be purchasing two Intel PCIe dual port gigabit cards for it. How would I go about replicating the exact functions of a router...

q6600 setup, will this work?

430 watts is more than enough even with an 8800GTX. All your parts are fine for overclocking although I would highly recommend an aftermarket heatsink.

LCD Buyer's Guide

I recently placed an order for a Dell 2007FP due to the positive experiences I've had with their previous monitors, but I've been reading about all the issues with it and this is the first time I have ever crossed my fingers while waiting for a Dell monitor. Is there any way I can tell which...
