    Dell U2913WM -- 29" 2560x1080 Ultrasharp

    I can not wait for more wider monitors. They are def worth it for gaming. I've always loved my square monitors, 1280x1024, 1600x1200. 16:9 monitors have never felt wide enough, and were always a little too wide for what I use computers for. Something about double that wide is good, and triple...

    LA Noire PC sucks.

    Its upsetting to see that [H] has become a troll filled forum over the years. :mad: On that note, I haven't been been able to get the game to run in triple head. Got it durring the holiday steam sale. It looked interesting, but with it crashing every minute I haven't been able to play.

    Used GTX295

    Did some quick searching around but didn't see much for any recent sales/auctions for a used GTX295. I found some old auctions for $600+ but these didn't even seem close to what the card would be worth today. Got a friend with a XFX GTX295 (dual PCB) that is about a year old. What is ball...

    Moving Boot files (Win7 multiboot)

    I have already tried disabling/changing the boot drive and it will not boot, but wasn't sure if running the repair utility off the Win7 disc would solve the issue. I didn't want to take a chance of running that and having it botch the drive and need to reformat again.

    Moving Boot files (Win7 multiboot)

    Here is my setup: HD1: Boot drive, Win7 RC, WinXP32, WinXP64 HD2: Win7 Pro HD1 has all the boot information, what can I do to transfer this to HD2? Would I just get rid of the drive (or changing the priority to HD2 in the bios) and run the repair utility from the Win7 DVD? I wanted...

    i7 920 Degration from QPI voltage

    For those that don't like to read I have a 4.2ghz stable OC with 1.29v idle, 1.264v load Vcore, 1.62v Vdimm, 1.34QPI, 1.24IOH. Core i7 920 D0 (SLBEJ-3903A468). Is 1.34v for the QPI going to greatly accelerate the rate in which my chip degrades? Realtemp reports my Cores at getting no warmer...

    Intel Core i7 920 D0 (High Temps @ stock :S) - Need Air Cooler ~£100

    pretty much anything is going to be better than the stock intel HSF. i know you said sound isn't an issue, but if you want quiet the Noctua U12p works pretty good. 4.2ghz (200x21) 1.26v. 66-70C at the cores, 58C CPU (68C is safe per intel's specs). as long as you don't have tall heat...

    Starforce Proactive - is it safe?

    I'm trying to find some information on the newer Starforce Proactive system being used. I would rather not buy/support a game and its developer that supports a company like Starforce because of past business practices that I do not agree with, but unfortunately there is no alternative :( except...

    Why are video card so expensive?

    GPU's have always been kind of pricey compared to just a CPU. At least over the last decade. the price trend is kind of tricky though. sometimes a GFX card will drop in price very drastically and other times it will go up. On the other hand CPU's are usually pretty stable. the i7 920 i...

    BIOS shows 4/6GB of ram on UD4P with CL12+

    i wanted to post this here since i've been here before and don't have an account elsewhere. i have not found anything yet regarding this problem. today i tried for 1900mhz from my DDR3 ram, and by my calculations i should be around CL12, but found that i loose 2gb of ram with a CL of 12. its...

    Normal i7 920 stock cooler temps?

    is it me or is a 60C idle a bit high? i'm using a Noctura and running at 4.2ghz(see sig) and i idle at 30C and load at 70C. ambient is ~18C. maybe i got a factory freak or something.

    coreI7-Strange stability issue

    this does not make much sense but.... i had a bad monitor. i have 2 Dell Trinitron's that are were manufactured in 2001 that i had received from a friend several years ago during a big move. for a while i have thought that both were burning out and the other day one started go go dark/dim...

    coreI7-Strange stability issue

    Noctura NH U12 i ran Furmark for several hours (with linpack running on the other 7 threads), never any artifacts or crashes, although i reduced my OC quite a bit because i'd get artifcats from the core overheating in ArmA 2, but other games cause the GPU to get warmer and never show...
