  1. Invalid Partition Table error

    I have a Dell E6440, and sometimes when I press the power button to wake it from sleep or to boot it up after shutting it down, it doesn't boot into Windows and says "Invalid Partition Table" instead. Hitting the power button to shut it off and then again to turn it back on will usually result...
  2. What was your most significant CPU upgrade?

    Pentium D & 1GB of DDR RAM to i3 330M & 4GB RAM was a pretty big jump for me.
  3. Lenovo used Windows anti-theft feature to install persistent crapware

    They do offer a tool that is supposed to remove that https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/product_security/lse_bios_notebook
  4. Pole: Droid Maxx by Motorola vs. HTC One (Verizon)

    If I was going to spend $600-650 on a Verizon phone, I'd probably be seriously considering the Moto X Developer Edition, although they're out of stock.
  5. Survey: Does your monitor have backlight bleed?

    Yeah. It's an old 19" no-name monitor from 2006/2007, it's getting ready to die (it flickers on anything but high brightness). My laptop's display does as well, in the bottom right corner. I'm looking at a U2412 or something similar when I finally get a new desktop at some point. I might go...
  6. Does the GTX prefix mean anything anymore?

    Maybe then I can get a 660SE to replace my 6600LE. /s
  7. Is AnandTech bias towards some companies?

    First, the word you're looking for is "biased". To answer your question, I think this is one of the most unbiased sites for reviews of products.
  8. Best PCI x16 I can get to upgrade old computer?

    That athlon x2 will choke on BF3. My best guess is something like a 6670 might work.
  9. nVidia vs. ATI - Driver Quality?

    I've had occaisional issues with both, as have my friends. I think my AMD driver issues are more the fault of the fact they're put out through HP. My NVIDIA card was a 6600LE, so it was pretty old. My friends who've had issues had a 9800GTX+ and a 5570.
  10. Best Video card\combo for gaming rig

    I would always go with a faster single card and avoid the little issues and annoyances of SLI/Crossfire. I have no experience with either game.
  11. Have you ever had a processor fail on you?

    I had a machine bit the dust over the summer. Not sure if it was the CPU, PSU, or MoBo. I swapped PSU's, but it still wouldn't boot or even do anything. I didn't bother to investigate at that point, because tbh, I don't give a shit about a 6 year old Pentium D machine.
  12. How long has your computer lasted?

    We have a Pentium D system that was running fine for about 5.5 years, until the PSU (I think) gave up the ghost in July. I didn't bother messing with it because it just wasn't worth it. It really depends on what you're doing. If I built a new machine right now with a Sandy Bridge Pentium, i3...
  13. Graphics Card for Dell Inspiron 620 S?

    I think a 5450/6450 would be more than fine. I suspect that for the original CS, the HD 2000 would probably even be fine. The HD 2000 is far faster than a GeForce 2 afaik. Whatever RAM the HD 2000 uses isn't a big deal, since you have 8GB of RAM. A proper GPU will perform better, but I'm...
  14. My radeon hd 6670 is bottlenecked. Anything i can do without buying a new cpu?

    GTA 4 runs like shit on most setups, it's not a great port. My laptop's GPU should be a bit slower than OP's (6770M 1GB). Even at 1366x768 GTA 4 runs like shit with an i7 2630QM (turbos up to ~2.5GHz most of the time in games)
  15. do oem amd cpus come with a warranty?

    afaik, the warranty on the AMD OEM chips is 30 days, that's what I see on newegg at least
  16. Is NewEgg still the "king"?

    When I get around to my new desktop in a couple months I'll probably be going with a combo of micro center and amazon, but looking up model numbers of what I want on newegg. Amazon basically only appeals to me since I Java prime and can habit my stuff in a day or two every time, an micro center...
  17. Graphics card for OLD HTPC

    5450/6450 would be fine for what you want I think. PCIe specs are backwards compatible, so just get whatever. I don't know how the 5450/6450 would perform in games, but something like the 5570 I know will play Valve's stuff pretty well, my friend has one.
  18. i5 2500k or FX 8120

    I could see the video editing, but 3D modeling is a bit more specialized than that. Tons of people put shit out on YouTube, so some light editing of video is not unreasonable (I have a friend who tries to make game walkthroughs and random Minecraft videos), but I don't know a lot of people who...
  19. Help, Uprade from 460 1GB SLI to...???? what next?

    I would say unless you absolutely need to buy something right now, you should wait and see what Kepler has to offer.
  20. Gozilla.exe?

    Update: found that shit finally. It seems to have been installed by Gomez Peer, which I had installed several months ago. I'm not sure why it never came up until the past week, but I think I'm uninstalling that shit right quick, as it's annoying as hell.
  21. Gozilla.exe?

    here's the log from hijackthis when I ran it last night at the request of someone in the reddit post I started in r/techsupport someone in another forum suggested that it might be related to BF3, because they thought that in star trek online there were sometimes audio ads that were something...
  22. Gozilla.exe?

    Quick scans revealed nothing other than some browser tracking cookies. Running full scans as well. MSE has flagged some stuff in the past in the HP games folder as a trojan, under a "plants vs zombies" subfolder that didn't appear to exist. I wiped out the entire HP Games folder via...
  23. Gozilla.exe?

    I'm not 100% sure this is the right place to post this. I haven't installed anything new recently, but something started playing an audio ad while I was playing BF3, which has happened once before, and it's annoying as shit to hear some dude with a british accent talk about some "webx" thing...
  24. Monitor Upgrade Impact on Playable FPS

    I don't know for sure, but I think the 580 could probably do alright, especially if you were to lower settings to high, which doesn't look a hell of a lot different than Ultra from what I've seen. Tom's Hardware article
  25. Sony Google TVs

    Would my family be totally crazy to buy the 40" Sony Google TV from Fry's for $598 + tax? It doesn't seem like a terrible deal to me, but what do I know. It would be mainly for watching TV, movies, and Netflix, not really for games or stuff like that. Basically, my mom and sister really want...
  26. Could i run BF3 on my graphics card?

    My friend plays BF3 on a C2D E6600 and 5570. No idea what settings, and his monitor's only 1440x900. I can't imagine he's running more than medium-low settings though. I don't think he's particularly sensitive to low framerate though. I've been playing it on medium on a 6770M and i7 2630QM at...
  27. Pentium D replacement

    I honestly don't know how reliable buying stuff on ebay is, but I see Core 2 Duo E6400 and E6600 CPUs for $40-50 plus shipping (about $5) from top-rated sellers. No idea if that's a good deal or not, though. My friend is still running one of those, and he plays the shit out of TF2 and all...
  28. Waiting for Kepler?

    I don't know. I'm looking to get a desktop again soon-ish, and I'll go for whatever's the best performance/$ in my price range, which will top out around where the 570 falls right now. I'm hoping to get one of those Samsung 27" monitors at the same time I get a new desktop, and I'd like...
  29. 24" LCD that rotates?

    U2412M does that I think. It depends on what you mean by "reasonably cheap". Those run about $330 each I think.
  30. Any opinion on this box?

    I bet the HDD is a 5400rpm drive, which would be pretty slow as a main system drive.
  31. What % of the CPU is used in gaming?

    It really depends on the game. I've heard Napoleon Total War could max out a 980x but i have not played that game yet, nor do i have a 980x or sandy bridge e CPU.
  32. 7970 vs 6970 vs 580

    You need SLI for 3+ displays on NVIDIA cards currently I think. Everybody's been able to do dual displays for a long time. NVIDIA's 3D tech seems more mature from what I've seen, though it may change at some point down the road. I'm not even sure if NVIDIA's stuff will work with non-active 3D...
  33. What was your first overclock?

    I've never had the pleasure, as I've been using laptops the last 2 years pretty much, and before that a Pentium D with stock cooler, which ran real warm at stock 3.4GHz and I can't imagine would have had much headroom anyway. I didn't really start to get into computers and technology until I had...
  34. Two budget office boxes.

    A Sandy Bridge Celeron or Pentium would probably be more than adequate, and cost ~$50-70. I'd pair that with an H67 motherboard, and maybe a small (40-60GB) SSD instead of a hard drive (much snappier performance) if not much other than OS and the software to be used needs to be installed...
  35. Requirements to view Bluray?

    I'm pretty sure all HD 5000 series and newer and NVIDIA 400 series and newer should be able to do that. http://www.anandtech.com/show/4380/discrete-htpc-gpus-shootout
  36. Catalyst + Intel Driver = No power control?

    Couldn't you just use the 6970s to drive the third display?
  37. What would you upgrade?

    There is an email newsletter for Shell Shockers. I don't remember how to sign up for it, but I did at some point, evidently.
  38. What would you upgrade?

    It still shows in the Shell Shockers for me, I was able to add it to the cart and it shows as totalling to ~$325 with the tax rate in my area (SoCal). You may still be able to jump on the deal. You also seem to get a Trackmania 2: Canyon code and Trend Micro Titanium AntiVirus, not that...
  39. What would you upgrade?

    I would recommend video card, but if you're not having problems with what you have now, why change it? You could get a 6850 for ~$150 looking at Newegg, but if you're not having problems with your games on your current card, I don't know if that's really a great upgrade. Looking at Newegg, it...
  40. I did NOT build this, but I need help

    I think the PSU is probably fine. I know a lot of people who choose to have their PSU situated that way if the machine is sitting on a carpeted floor, and it doesn't seem to have a particularly negative effect. The PSU will be pulling air out of the machine rather than in through it, but I think...
