1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Mostly used for gaming - EVE, SWTOR, Battlefield, Guild Wars 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? 550-650. Including shipping and taxes 3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell...

I have had it with my Logitech Z-5500 speakers. This has been a never ending problem with the front left speaker for at least 5 years now. See this post for details of my issues with the speakers. At this point, I am content with spending a bit more to get a legitimate 5.1 system hooked up to my...

I have a Samsung PN58C7000 connected via an hdmi cable to my GTX 580. Before the hdmi connects to the GTX 580 there is a mini hdmi to hdmi converter. For at least 6 months this has been working flawlessly until today. Within the nvidia control panel, the TV is recognized, and I am able to...

So a few days ago Blizzard released two images. Everyone is speculating that they are frames from the opening cinematic to Diablo 3. Since Blizzcon is just around the corner, it would make sense for them to release a few frames from what they plan on displaying. Anyways, this image is...

I personally did not get an invite, but the internet is being flooded with proof. Here is some that I have found: http://imgur.com/KnIRB http://imgur.com/a/gZJPB#0qcRb http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q6lLf8Y8Mo I am sure you can find plenty more if you just google it.... but it has...

As if it wasnt already obvious with the press conference and the NDA on that press conference being lifted a few days later, the below image has shown up on battle.net. It showed up more then a week ago on the european battle.net. source...

http://flawlesswidescreen.org/ No it doesnt stretch the resolution or anything. It removes the bars and displays what should have been there in the first place. Already tested on my computer at 2560x1600 - works great.

This is probably something 99% of the people in this forum can answer but I still had a little trouble finding an answer on google. With EVGA's warranty can you overclock the card (specifically a GTX 580) without voiding it? Only reason I ask is because I just ran 3DMark11 and it seems there...

I have had this mouse for about 6 months now and I was just randomly browsing the internet when I realized I can click the mouse wheel to the left and right. It defiantly feels different then pushing down on it. Are these registered keys or it it just a coincidence that they feel like they...

The title pretty much sums it up. I currently have two BFG GTX 280 OCX in SLI running at a resolution of 2560x1600. My initial plan was to try and hold out until the 600 series is released (no I dont plan on going ATI) because the majority of the games I am interested in dont come out until the...

This is a strange one. The computer I am running this on is in my sig. No matter what I change, whether the graphics are on ultra or low, whether I switch the drivers from the newest beta or the most recent solid ones, or if I turn sli on or off the same thing happens. That being whenever I...

I am surprised no one has posted this yet - maybe I am just blind. Anyways, Steam is allowing you to play the beta of Darkspore for free. If you arent familiar with it, Darkspore is basically Maxis' Spore engine (in terms of graphics and customizability) mixed with an RPG. It is actually...

A friend of mine recently built the following HTPC: Video Card: ATI 5670 512 MB Motherboard: Asus M4A785-M CPU: AMD Phenom X4 9600 Black Edition Quad Core 2.3 Ghz. PN: HD960BWCJ4BGD (Cannot provide link atm). Memory: Patriot 2x2GB DDR2 PC2-6400 He has reported skipping/stuttering in...

Is there such a thing? After having a brief look at newegg everything appears to just have 3.5mm (or is it 2.5mm) outputs, SPDIF or optical. Basically what I am looking for is some type of PCI card that has 6 connections to each of my speakers in my 5.1 setup through regular speaker wire. The...

Basically my question is will an HDMI signal degrade over a long distance like other some cables do? I was initially planning on building a HTPC with some more then average video card horsepower to play games. I was wanting to spend ~500$ or so on that. Instead, I was thinking why not just run...

I have been considring all sorts of options for a while now on what to get for my sound system to go with my Samsung PN58C7000. Right now the TV is setup in a small room, and if I were to get a surround sound system my head would be inbetween the back speakers, so I dont think that is the...

Hi, I am trying to give suggestions to a friend of mine on what route to go with his HTPC build. I figured what better way of getting a good answer then asking here? 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Solely used as an HTPC. 2) What's your budget...

So I just ordered a brand new Samsung PN58C7000 and it should be here within the week. I dont want to move my desktop back and forth in order to watch tv. I believe my laptop is capable of playing 1080p mkv (or similar) files, I just need to optimize it. It plays 720p video perfectly fine and...

Only good for the rest of the week. Pretty good deal imo. 1. Add this to your cart. 2. Apply coupon code CSK15082 at checkout. 3. ???????? 4. Profit.

I have two BFG GTX 280 OCX video cards in great condition. I would prefer to trade them + some of my money for a GTX 580 or 570. I am just looking for a efficient way of upgrading my current system without the hassle of selling both cards and going without a video card for a few weeks. It...

The best part of this long interview? The fact that their office is littered with Dell 3008WFPs, 3007WFPs and I think I caught a U3011, or some 2011 series dell monitors. It was pretty ridiculous if you saw it.

As it stands right now my current Logitech Z-5500 system has a problem with the subwoofer. The left speaker will randomly stop working which can be very irritating. I have nailed it to some device within the subwoofer since the left speaker works perfectly fine when connected to a different...

N C I X is selling it for 200$ and it has a 30$ mail in rebate. Keep in mind those prices are in Canadian (since ++++ is a Canadian based dealer) so it may turn out cheaper then that if you are buying from the US. You can find it here. Edit: I dont know why but hardforums is replacing N C I X...

I just wanted your guys opinion on this as it sounds like a scam and I am almost sure it is. I really want to know how he is scamming people so I dont ever fall for it. Anyways I was browsing ebay because I am in the market for a Samsung 46" LED and just out of curiosity I searched for the...

I am planning on buying a Samsung LED 46" TV. To be honest I will probably buy the oldest version because I don't care about 3D capabilities, or the apps that come with it, or the look of the stand - just the nice LED TV. Anyways, since Black Friday is around the corner I have been looking at...

I know there is a specific dell 20 inch that when put in portrait fits perfectly next to the 3007wfp. I am pretty sure there is no equivalent for the 3008wfp since the bezel is totally different. Does anyone have any pictures and/or suggestions on which Dell 20 inch model (and revision number) I...

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Mostly web browsing and watching HD videos on websites like youtube or hulu. Looking to play Starcraft 2 but this computer does not need to be able to run every setting at max. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and...

Announcing beta keys for 1000 randomly chosen blizzcon attendees for diablo 3 = beta in next 6 months? = diablo 3 in 2011? Also, going on the 2 major titles a year statement, and the fact that the next starcraft 2 title wont come out in 2011 must mean that diablo 3 will be one of those two...

Well, I don't really know where else to ask this, and I would prefer to ask it here because I value the advice in these forums. Hopefully it is alright, because desk chairs are somewhat relevant, right? Anyways - I just started my first real job and finally have my own large amount of money...

My network is somewhat unique - I have my modem downstairs and I run the connection up to my one and only computer upstairs through the Ethernet over power adapters. Something similar to this but a different brand. Anyways I woke up in the middle of the night to find my modem going crazy and...

Anyone have any suggestions? I suck for the most part at the actual game so I dont really play it. The only thing I have really gotten into is "A Standard TD", since I used to love playing Elemental TD in Warcraft 3. It is actually pretty hard - I have only gotten to level 47 on very easy...

I cannot believe something this simple is so difficult. The only apps I have found able to do this (SMS Backup, SMS Backup & Restore) save the conversation as a .xml file and they exclude my messages sent, so all I am reading is what the person sent me. I am looking for a app that backs up a...

This has been an issue for a couple of years now. Basically, the left speaker will randomly stop working. It will continue to stop working for anywhere from a day to a month, and then randomly begin working again. I have done a couple of things to try and diagnose the issue and I already...

Ever since I have built this new computer ( see sig ) I have had this problem. Basically, opening a second WoW executable on this machine will cause my computer to come to a hault almost. It nearly locks up to the point where I have to wait about 10-15 seconds before I can move the mouse a...

So my parents are purchasing a new TV and since they are not as tech savvy as I am they asked me to find them one. Now, the best part about this is money for the most part is no object. They are willing to spend a large amount of money but at the same time they have no interest or need to spend...

According to the following link the beta ends in 5 days... http://starcrafthero.com/starcraft-2-beta-to-end-may-17th/ Sorry if someone already posted this. It is news to me.

So I am sure most of you have heard of this problem. It is pretty common and I have seen it on many laptops during my IT positions. If you have not seen this error, basically after turning on your computer with windows 7 or vista installed it will post and you will see a error saying...

Here is the problem. I am trying to copy large files ( > 4 GB) to a USB drive and they will start out at a reasonable speed of roughly 60 mb/s. Then the transfer rate will practically stop and many other applications like firefox or windows explorer will display "not responding" in the title and...

So I want to buy a digital camera and was hoping I could get some good advice on what to avoid and what to consider. The most important things to me are: 1. Size - It needs to fit in my pocket. 2. At least 720p resolution for recording videos. 3. High MP's - At least 10. 4. Price -...
