    KVM or other solution for this desktop+laptop setup?

    Sorry i should have been clearer. There's only 3 monitors (2 for the desktop, and the laptop's screen). I've edited my post to clarify. So how would synergy work for my setup? Do I install it on the desktop or laptop?

    Upgrading old core2quad rig to i5/SSD/Win7 - sanity check

    Got the U2412M already (haven't got new rig yet). Looking good next to my 2001FP. Unfortunately my old 7800GT doesn't seem to be able to support the dual setup at native resolution (3520x1200). NVIDIA control panel shows 3200x1200 as max resolution and I can't customize it. Also, for...

    Upgrading old core2quad rig to i5/SSD/Win7 - sanity check

    I'd like a smaller form factor than what i have now, but would like the ability to have: - 2 HDD (from existing build) - 1 SSD (newly purchased) - 1 optical drive (from existing build) This may be tough for an ITX case. Can you recommend a small mATX case that works? By the way...

    Upgrading old core2quad rig to i5/SSD/Win7 - sanity check

    Ok got it, very helpful guys. $800 budget sounds about right (before displays), with some flex if necessary. The mITX build is looking interesting. My only concern about the one you linked above is that it only allows 1 SSD and 1 HDD. I'd like the flexibility to have an extra HDD. One...

    Upgrading old core2quad rig to i5/SSD/Win7 - sanity check

    Thanks guys. Good to know about 4-pin vs. 8-pin on the PSU - I didn't realize newer mobo's use 8 pins now. If I have to replace the PSU too, now i'm thinking I just replace everything, including the case, and go with a tidy little mini ITX case/mobo set up. Any good mini ITX case...

    Help upgrading my existing rig

    Ok got it. Will start with the SSD and 8.1 full version (64 bit) so I have the flexibility to upgrade the rest of my system later if necessary. In terms of RAM, I agree it doesn't make sense to add more DDR2. Plus, my 32 bit winXP is only seeing 3.25GB of my existing 4GB, so I'll get a...

    Help upgrading my existing rig

    Thanks guys, I'll start with a SSD and clean Windows 7 install for now and see if that gets me where I want. If not, I'll do a more thorough upgrade (cpu/mobo/ram). The only remaining issue is I was hoping to buy the OEM version of win7 to save some $$. But if I find I need to change my...

    How to: Upgrade your motherboard without reinstalling Windows.

    Rig upgrade to support HD video editting

    Another recommendation, which is better than physically moving the axis itself (which makes it difficult to see where the positive/negative transition happens) is to just move the location of the labels on the x-axis. The way to do that is to double click on the axis, choose the "pattern" tab...

    need northbridge fan on eVGA 133-K8-NF41 mobo

    I tried local stores in manhattan and none of them had it. The fan I have now doesn't have a separate heatsink. The fan is joined to/embedded in the heatsink, so both come off together. But for the time being I'll leave the heatsink on and the fan not running.

    need northbridge fan on eVGA 133-K8-NF41 mobo

    Final question - how much risk do I run using my computer without this fan until the new one gets here? I think it's been dead for a while since I only noticed when I got the warning after a restart boot up last night - so I'm thinking my computer was able to handle it. Any thoughts?

    The nb fan just died on evga mobo (see sig). Don't think I can RMA it (not registered), and evga doesn't sell those fans standalone, so I want to pick up a replacement fan from newegg or elsewhere. Problem is the fan has to be very thin since the video card (see sig) literally sits right on...

    Why not create an identifier for each part number by combining each piece of data? For example: in an adjacent column put "=A1&B1&C1", which will give you 2CSD5.6 for the first entry. Copy that down for all parts, and you'll have a unique identifier for each part. Then just combine the user...
