ibook vs powerbook

Yeah, I'm also looking into buying an Apple laptop soon, waiting to see what happens in September with the powerbooks. I read on macrumors that the 12" model might be dropped :( Anyway, I generally think that at this point the iBooks have practically caught up with the powerbooks as far as...

Considering Dual Monitors

good point. I've thought about it some more and I think I will keep the 18 inch Mitsubishi and just get 1 new, nice monitor, a 19 inch perhaps. Having the two 17s wouldn't be bad, but I would like one larger monitor for movies and games :)

Considering Dual Monitors

I have recently been considering getting a dual monitor setup. :) Right now, I have a Mitsubishi DiamondPoint NX86LCD. 18.1". It's a pretty decent monitor and I've had it for a couple years. My main question is, are there any advantages to having equally sized monitors in a dual monitor set...

(Your opinion) -- best lookin' case?

I love my Lian Li PC-65 too :) very well built, extremely easy to get in and out of all the time, just plain quality. My roommate has an Aspire X-Dreamer II (cool case as well) but every time he sees me working in my PC-65 he comments on how quality the interior of the case is compared to...

which enermax PSU, the one w/ 12V/33A or the one with separate 12v rails ?

Tell me about it....lol I have an MSI K8N Platinum and an Antec True Power 480, 12V = 22A. Ever since I got my 6800GT I've been having all sorts of system lock ups. You'd think the PSU I have is enough.... Anyway, my whisper II is arriving tomorrow mornin. Hopefully it will get the job...

I apologize, the link is really more about Blue Screen troubles so I'm not sure whether it will help you or not: http://forum.msi.com.tw/thread...lightuser=0&page=1 I found it pretty informative. Hopefully it will help you!

MSI K8N Neo Platinum (MS-7030) Hangs at BIOS

I dont know....I have a TruePower 480(not the blue LEDS though heh). I have also been wondering if I have power supply issues. I just don't understand how my Antec PSU could be bad, I've heard so many good things about them. Maybe you and I just got duds....lol I've read forums on MSIs...

YES I have a K8N Neo Platinum and I have the same problem you have. From time to time (randomly) it hangs at the Platinum screen. It happens when the BIOS does not recognize the hard drive. Really strange....If I reboot a few times it usually will boot to windows. Lately it has been giving...

Poll: Which color case do you prefer?

I like either, it depends on the case. For the most part, I think steel is good in black and aluminum in silver. I have a Lian-Li pc 65 and it looks awesome in its silver aluminum. Lian-Li sells drive bay covers for optical drives, floppys, etc. that match my case exactly! = )

Logitech Z-5300s--speaker wire

I'm thinking about getting the Logitech Z-5300's, read lots of great things about them. I've heard that the speaker wire is very short for the rear speakers and is hardwired into the speakers. To anyone that has these speakers, is this true? Is there any way to length/replace the wires...

NVIDIA nForce3 250 Chipset

Ive got the MSI K8N and I have read about problems with it as you have. However, I have not had any problems, its been a good board. My audigy 2 did cause me to have BSODs but I blame that on horrible audigy drivers. I have a TB santa cruz now that runs fine on it.

Windows XP blue screen of death?

running Memtest86 v.1.15 now, been on for 3 hours or so. Does memtest ever "finish" or does it just run forever until you tell it to stop? If memtest finds no errors (hasnt yet) then I suppose I will RMA the motherboard.
