    Cutting the cord questions

    The HDHome Run Prime is the cablecard tuner by Silicondust. It does not do OTA. All the other HDHomeRuns are OTA tuners. None of them do cablecard, but they can do QAM if your local cable doesn't encrypt. There isn't a cable card tuner for PC on the market that can do OTA. I don't know why...

    Advice for a potential Gaming PC build

    I would choose a different motherboard. You don't need to pay for Z97 if you are not going to overclock, unless you want to use SLI (in the future). However the Asus Z97-P ATX doesn't support SLI.

    Possible Hunch I had about HD artifacts and bad transmission with Homerun Prime

    Probably a bad USB cable. In a similar circumstance I had trouble with a new cable modem initializing. Replacing the long cables with shorter ones I had fixed it. But it put my modem far away from my desk. After some investigating I found out that the cables I have are poorly shielded RG59...

    Where would be the best upgrade?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but don't they also have to match same in the number of chips and and match single sided or double sided? Anyway, Wikipedia also mentions "rows and columns". Whatever that means. At any rate Wikipedia is often known to be wrong. So don't take it as gospel...

    Help! DDR3 Gskill RipjawsX problem

    RAMPAGE EXTREME - Specifications http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/RAMPAGE_EXTREME/specifications/ I glanced at the available BIOS updates and it doesn't list anything that would suggest that the max memory size had increased. I'd have to believe that the board only supports 4 x 2GB for a...

    Which components to buy first?

    Order from amazon first. Wait eight days then order from new egg. Since you are poor like me I know you will be using the cheapest shipping option they offer. Both orders should arrive on the same day. Seriously, placed two orders last Wednesday. New Egg order arrived today and then...

    What Video Card For Watching Movies On 4K

    Yep, HDMI 2.0. But you don't need an HDMI 2.0 cable as the cable is the same as an HDMI 1.4 cable. Its the other ends of the cable that need the HDMI 2.0 spec. In this case the monitor and video card. The only video cards that I am aware of that sport the new HDMI 2.0 connector are the GTX...

    Onboard Audio vs Old Soundcard

    You should test them both. But if Asus is to be believed then the the sound on that motherboard is "as great as a dedicated sound card". http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS_VII_RANGER/ The marketing speak & gimmicks are an entertaining read. -Gold plated connectors. -EMI cover...

    CPU & GPU for HTPC build

    CPU & GPU for HTPC build

    Cheapest possible is an DVI-D to HDMI dongle (or cable). You may even have one in your box of spare parts (from various video card purchases). It may or may not work. It does for Gigabyte H81 boards. http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2398826 It's worth a try.

    A dumb question about remotes...

    Any Windows Media Center remote. But functionality when the player is not in focus varies from player to player. Examples that I tested: Windows Media Center / Windows Media Player: Play, Pause, Stop, Rewind, Fast Forward work when the player is not in focus. Skip forward or backward buttons...
