    Vid card for gaming at 1920x1200?

    I have a GTX 280 that's just fine to play TF2 on :-) It's the whole thing of, well, do I really want to have multiple video card drivers on my system if I'm going through with a new install, or do I just want to change everything at once. Given that there are Big Improvements coming down the...

    Vid card for gaming at 1920x1200?

    I've been out of the hardware game for a while. What are the best options for gaming at 1920x1200 at the $250-$350 pricepoint? Is anything coming out in the next couple months that I should be aware of? I'm not doing heavy gaming at the moment, but it's time to update my system. I'll be...

    ~$75 to spend for low profile gaming PCI-X for Dell

    It's for "gaming" -- Sims3 :-) Looks like the 9600GT is Nvidia's answer. I just can't figure out all these Radeon model names. Is a 5570 better than a 4670? More power? Gahhh...

    ~$75 to spend for low profile gaming PCI-X for Dell

    I'm looking for a budget gaming card that's low profile and will work in a Dell Vostro 230 (low profile, dinky power supply). I had originally had them purchase an HD4670 (which was going to be great because it wouldn't require any extra power either), but just found out it's a slimline case and...

    32 GB Thumbdrive claims it's full; 12 GB free??

    It's a $100 LaCie drive directly from them so it's definitely not a fake. I'll try NTFS without journaling. Thanks for the help!

    32 GB Thumbdrive claims it's full; 12 GB free??

    I have a 32 GB, FAT32-formatted thumb drive. I'm loading it up with media for travel, but it claims it's full when it still has 12 GB free. There are fewer than 30 files on the device (with long filenames). Can anyone explain what's going on here? Is this a FAT32 issue? I read that NTFS on a...

    Has the heatsink market changed in the past 2 years?

    I'm buying a heatsink tomorrow. The last time I was in the heatsink market, Scythe Ninjas and Tuniq Towers were all the rage in the $30-50 club. What are the top performers now? At the B&M Microcenter I'll be visiting, they sell both of these, but they also sell a bunch of other kinds...

    Replacing inverter in Dell 2001FP?

    My 2001FP buzzes when it attempts to power on. Powering it off/on repeatedly causes it to buzz briefly and show no image, to buzz briefly and show a flickering image that quickly stabilizes, or to power on as normal. As I understand it, this means the inverter board is dying. I found a...

    Get a free upgrade to DirecTVs new HD DVR (HR20) + more

    Yes, it would look better as you'd be viewing in 480p instead of your current 480i. A real HD TV will look even better. You won't be able to record HD content with your old Tivos.

    2 computer, 1 set of speakers

    I've got 2 computers side by side with 2 monitors. I want to watch video on the second computer using the speakers connected to the first computer while I'm using the first computer for sound too. Can I use line in / line out to achieve this? Are there any problems with doing this?

    5ms TN panel text "shimmering"

    I purchased a Chi Mei 22" 5ms panel from NewEgg (these are the same panels all the 22" 5ms monitors use). I notice that I get text shimmering worse on this new faster monitor than my 2001FP (which I believe is a 25ms panel). So, for example, this is what I'm doing. I open up excel and put...

    Dell E228WFP and 2707wfp

    This at newegg is the same price, and (AFAIK) has been sitting at $300 shipped for over a month(?). Also, from doing a bit of reading, it appears that Chimei makes all of the 22" TN panels (except I think Samsung is starting to make their own, but the popular 225BW is the Chimei panel). I...

    Looking for a piece of technology "furniture" - dual LCD sliding monitor platform

    TV Tuner: PCI vs USB quality

    I'm looking at building a little computer, and if I go mATX I'd have to get a fancy ($$) low-rise TV-tuner... unless I went USB 2.0. I know USB tuners are more expensive. Is there a general quality difference (i.e., no enoding possible) when using a USB TV tuner?

    Dual monitors: can one be saved for Windows while gaming?

    I'm currently using a 20" Dell LCD hooked to my main comp along with a 14" screen on a laptop. I'm using Synergy, a VNC-based program to share one keyboard/mouse between the two. It's really nice when gaming, because I move the mouse off the screen and I'm instantly in windows surfing. However...

    Noise suppression mode for microphones?

    I'm currently using a realtek codec for my onboard motherboard sound (rig in sig). It has a "noise suppression" feature which I didn't know about ahad of time but now I can't live without.

    Need to buy solution for light office networking

    I work in a lab with a small internal network with a fileserver. Currently, we have a $50 Netgear consumer router plugged into the wall. Plugged into it are two HP Procurve 2424M switches (one for each half of the lab), and plugged into those are ~10 computers on each side. The reason we have...

    So I've forgotten the default A64 3000 settings...

    I'm sort of embarrassed to be posting this, but way back in the day I had my A64 3000 OC'd to 2.4GHz. Anyways, I thought I was having some instability problems so I cranked down the OC back to default chip speed (2 GHz). Well, I've forgotten all of the settings I'm supposed to balance, and my...

    Server dualie advice

    Thanks for the benchmark link. The game in question is Tribes Vengeance. It's a whore. You basically need a dedicated P4 3 GHz to run a single server. My only data so far is with task manager. On a P4 3.2 (no HT) it takes 70-80% CPU. With HT, I can run two servers and they only...
