Another Build Thread

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I went with the build in my first post except I picked up a Visiontek 4850 for a nice price (fan fix seems to work well for everyone, noise isn't that big a deal) and swapped out a Xigmatek HDT1283 for the Freezer 7 Pro. Can't wait!

Another Build Thread

The DDR2 1000 pack is $5 more than the DDR2 800 so I'm going to stick with the 1000 for that extra headroom. Is the 4850 overkill or not enough? I had originally checked out the 8800GT (great prices on newegg) but figured I could future-proof my setup just a little more with a 4850. The...

Another Build Thread

I am definitely planning to overclock, not extreme but I plan to squeeze as much out as possible with the aftermarket heatsink/fan. Gaming will be done at 1680x1050 mostly (20" WS monitor used day-to-day), but I also have a 24" monitor that may get some gaming use as well. I originally...

Another Build Thread

I've been out of the loop for a few years but I'm ready to upgrade my current machine which is probably at least 4 years old (barton 2500+ etc). I want to be able to play the current games at high settings and the games coming out in the next year or so at decent rates too. With some guidance...

NFL Week 3 Fantasy Pickups

i like the ones mentioned here - cotchery-WR, jacobs-RB, and clark-WR/TE. i actually picked up cotchery in one of my leagues, seems to be paying off okay so far and he has the big play ability. i know its only week 3 but look for guys who have, at least so far, produced consistently versus a...

Only a few more days until Premiership kicks off!

TheCrackedJack: I tried to reply to your PM but it said you don't want to receive them. I have the sports package with DirecTV which is $12 a month. I'm not sure if other companies offer something similar or if you can get FSC by itself.

So my girlfriend of 8.5 years decided to break up on Sunday

don't even bother with all that man. like someone else said, get rid of anything and everything that reminds you of her. don't try to contact her or anything as it will make it worse and lengthen the grieving process. she will either be the first to talk to you, or she's really gone and it...

Viewsonic VX2025WM issue

Viewsonic VX2025WM issue

exchanging is no problem, except that this was the last one they had so it may take a little longer for one to come in. i just didnt want to go through the hassle if i was just seeing things, so that's why im trying to get opinions. thanks for your input!
