    500 Million ASUS Motherboards. The Celebration Starts at [H]. - Lucky Draw

    The first Asus board I bought was the PZ68-V PRO - which has been running my 2600k at an impressive OC from day 1 with no issues. It has lived through 2 system upgrades (GPUs, RAM, HDD) and provided me with a very solid trust in Asus as a brand. Whichever way I upgrade in the future, I think the...

    Upgrade from 22" (Samsung 226BW) to 24" - Input needed

    Thanks for the reply. I am indeed a gamer, so a fast response time is essential. Does the newer Samsung 24" panel not have the same low input lag as the 226BW?

    Upgrade from 22" (Samsung 226BW) to 24" - Input needed

    Hi all, I have had the 226BW for a little over 2 years now - and it has been a great piece of hardware. I have recently got the itch for an upgrade to a 1920 x 1200 monitor (possibly a similarly specced Samsung, maybe a Dell - its price dependent). I just wanted to know if anyone has done...

    iPod touch video playback problems?

    I decided not to try the USB approach because I really don't see the point in modifying core driver settings to get a plug and play device to behave like it was designed to. So I synced from my wife's laptop - OS is Win XP - and all videos play back perfectly. I hope this issue with Vista is...

    iPod touch video playback problems?

    Quick update: Disabling Avast had no effect. Time to try and sync from an XP computer....will update later. EDIT: Hold that, I have found another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1249149&tstart=165) which indicates a USB setting in Vista could be the culprit. Will...

    iPod touch video playback problems?

    One or two other notes:- 1. link to the Apple forum which discusses the original problem. 2. Someone mentioned that turning off Avast seemed to help, but another user reported that it did not work for him. I am going to attempt this method next.

    iPod touch video playback problems?

    I have heard that this is a USB driver problem and a lot of ppl fixed it by using an external PCI USB Card. There are some reports that its Vista causing this and using XP for Itunes solves the problem. Which OS are you using, to those experiencing the problem?

    BFG 8800GTX OC Temps

    My BFG 8800 GTX OC idles at about 56 C and load goes to 75 and slightly above sometimes. However, I have a very roomy CM Stacker 831 with good air-cooling, and I am using Riva Tuner to force fan speed at 60% normally and to increae to 100% if the 75 C threshold is passed (also and 80 % if...

    Moving up to SLI for GTX....worth it?

    Thanks for the replies guys. You are probably right - another GTX is hardly worth it given the games I currently play, and the fact that 3-way SLI with 8800 Ultras cannot even push Crysis to a decent frame rate on high settings. And this way, I get to save my money for a different upgrade...
