New Build - Seeking Advice/Suggestions

I'm just a casual gamer. I used to play WOW heavily in college. Now, I just play when I can - it's probably not even worth it. I do; however, play quite a bit of Team Fortress 2. I pretty much limit my gaming to that, because my current system (AMD Athlon 3200+, 2 GB ram, and Radeon 9800...

New Build - Seeking Advice/Suggestions

Yes, that was what I was referring. Odd, about my link... On the flip side, would I be better off going the route of an i7 or i5 setup with a less powerful video card (ex. 5850)? I know this is an extremely broad question, but I was curious if; in my case, I would be better off with slightly...

New Build - Seeking Advice/Suggestions

Hello, I am in the final stages of piecing together my new build. I need some advice or encouragement. Does my proposed build look solid? This build will predominantly be my everyday machine. I don't play very many FPS games, I do enjoy WOW and will probably be picking up Star Wars: The Old...

Blu-ray Player Recommendations

I *would* consider a samsung player, but the reviews make it appear to be awful... I think I am leaning toward the PS3.

Blu-ray Player Recommendations

Samsung Series 6 LCD Flat Panel... I think the model number is LN52A650 - It's 52 inches... I could get the model number, but it is mounted on the wall and I really don't feel like looking for the manual... Does that help?

Blu-ray Player Recommendations

I want to purchase a Blu-ray player.... Initially I was leaning toward the LG BD390 or the Oppo BDP-83 or *possibly* a PS3... I would like the following.... (if possible - I am willing to sacrifice some areas to get an "overall better player") Great Video (both Blu-ray & DVD) Quality...

AT World of Warcraft Thread (WotLK, where do you play, General BS and all that)

I quit playing wow about the time burning crusades came out.... I really miss playing, but now, with work and etc.... I just want to play casually. I am thinking about picking up the two expansions, but rerolling as my guild has disbanded (it seems). My question is how long does it...

Video Cards and Photoshop/Lightroom

I am still in the process of putting together a new computer. I was wondering... If I were to remove the gaming equation from my build and strictly focus on photo editing, what would my video card requirements be? For the sake of argument I am/was going to build: i7 920 6GB ram...

Dual ASUS VH242H Setup

These seem to be pretty popular amongst the masses. I was considering purchasing two of them to run in a dual monitor setup coupled with a radeon 4870 1gb. I play some games. I'm not really into First Person Shooters - I lean toward RTS and MO/RPGs (waiting for Starcraft II and Diablo III)...

I failed to ask.... Which OS would currently be better for me? I have limited experience with vista. I was considering continuing with xp for a while longer.... With that said, newegg makes shopping for an OS quite confusing with their huge pricing disparity. Could someone please link me...

Photo Editing Build - Assistance requested

Thank you. I will keep that in mind. Aside from the other items... tablet, calibration devices... Does the computer build seem "okay"? Am I overbuying? I really feel no need to be cutting edge, as I (try) to upgrade every 2 years or so. (It hasn't been the case this last time around)...
