Best DSLR Camera

Definitely check out the T3i it's got a lot of neat features and shares the same sensor as the 7D, T4i, and T2i. I just saw a deal on ebay for this weekend only it was $699 for the t3i 18-55 kit + bag + memory card + 50mm 1.8 + 55-200 don't think you can beat that :)

Dust prevention?

Most midrange cases these days come with a dust filter anyway, but if you're looking for a third party solution check out demciflex - also like someone mentioned above maintaining positive pressure is key! Negative pressure will create a small suction of air through small crevasses and openings...

Thermaltake V9

As far as I can tell everything should fit just fine, for sure the video card will its only about 10, 10.5 inches long and that case supports I believe up to 12. If no one gets back to you for sure on the rest of the components by the morning I will, Best, George

1K build -- Just need a check-in (thanks!)

Ok woah, whats with the hating on the Intel Stock Cooler? Your telling me that the cooler, without any changes to bio running Mid 30's on idles and never above mid 40's is bad? Hes not overclocking! Look its good advice to go with a aftermarket cooler in any situation but if your not...

1K build -- Just need a check-in (thanks!)

I just built a new rig with that case and you'll absolutely love it, the i5-2500k is also a great choice. The 560 Ti is a great choice but at 1920 x 1080, you may run into certain limitations. I have a stock EVGA GTX 470, which performs a little less than the 560 ti, and on 1680x1050, I max Dirt...

ATI 5770 Metal Bracket?

ATI 5770 Metal Bracket?

Ive seen a couple 5770 disassembly videos and overall it seems very easy. Just remove the screw at the bottom, including the retention plate, and slowly pull away the fan cover and disconnect the fan. But do you think that this metal bracket is just bolted on somehow, i don't imagine its infused...

ATI 5770 Metal Bracket?

Hey all, so a friend is giving me a great deal on a 5770 out of a deal machine. The card though comes with this metal bracket thing attached by Dell I believe to add stability to the card. Well I want it off and was wondering if anyone had any ideas or had actually done something similar to...

New build critique, help please

My bad on not catching his mobo was a h67! If your going to go with a SSD, I'd recommend a Z68 board with the i5-2500K. This is an excellent Z68 mobo - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-502-_-Product With that mobo its not more expensive, many more features, support for overclocking...

New build critique, help please

How's this build look for a home media server?

SSD's are plug n plays - if you wanted to use something call "Smart Response Technology" which is a new tech from intel which uses your SSD as a cache for your harddrive, and basically drastically improves the performance of your large mechanical harddrive, but you won't be able to use your SSD...

$1200 Skyrim gaming rig, any suggestions?

Lol is it just me or do all the part links go straight to an ASUS DVD Drive? Anyway so far the build is looking very good, definitely get a Z68 if you have an SSD. I'd double check that your video card can fit inside the Antec 300, cause its a fairly small case and the 580's a beast card. So its...

Agreed, but if you do it for extensions you basically paid to have a set of sleeves so you can transfer them between cases, psu, etc =D Oh well I'll look into it! Thanks for the pricing and what not! Sincerely, George

Ahh yes a much cleaner and tougher look if you ask me =D I'll have to check that out, So far individually sleeved cables are my favorite but that definitely seems like a nice alternative. If you don't mind me asking about how much would you say it was to get enough to do your PC? Thanks, Kukag

Absolutely no budging, all the cables are parallel with the back panel and flat against it, fortunately there is numerous places for cable ties and the case has a decent amount of room behind it. Hopefully I'll be able to sleeve the included wires to make it all black, and buy some sleeved cable...
