    The best 19" gaming LCD

    Add the Benq FP937s to the list. Mine came yesterday and it is very nice. I use it to play World of Warcraft and Warcraft 3 mainly, and all I can say is, wow. The colors in both games are much much more vibrant than on my CRT, and the picture is much more crisp, though that's probably just...

    Best Thumbdrive out there?

    I have a Cruzer 256 and the only problem I have with it is that I have lost all 3 caps, and the casing feels kinda weak. I definately recommend the Titanium since it solves both problems and I hear its extremeley fast, just like the regular Cruzers. I'll probably be getting a Titanium soon...

    Best LCD for text and occasional gaming? Samsung, Viewsonic Or Benq

    I recently purchased a Samsung 710n for ~$330 and am extremely impressed. Text looked bad at first, but then I remembered Clear Type and turned that on. Now it looks incredible. Everything is crisp and pleasant to look at. Only game I've played on it so far is Warcraft 3, and it looked very...

    Shuttle PSU's reliable? Story inside:

    I don't know if it could be the psu or not, but I've had this problem before and it was due to my disc being really scratched and dirty. You should try using another one if you have one available, or try cleaning the current one if it's scratched.

    PSU Question (awful uninteresting title I know...)

    Sorry, forgot to mention the reason I want the zalman series so bad is because of their silence. WOW takamans calculator is extremely useful for this, thank you for that link! According to it the 300w Zalman meets all the needs of my system with some room to spare on most of the rails. Judging...

    PSU Question (awful uninteresting title I know...)

    I just found out my Codegen 350 watt psu is on the "bad" list. I have been interested in a silent psu for quite some time now and really have my sights set on the Zalman ZM300B. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=manufactory&catalog=58&manufactory=1647&DEPA=0&sortby=14&order=1...

    Will this system play WOW or EQ2??

    Just for comparison my computer ran Wow perfectly at 1024 x 768 highest settings in the stress test. Chaintech vnf3-250 A63 3200@2.4 768mb crucial 2100 Radeon 8500 64 mb.....ran perfectly with this old beast! Raptor 36.7 and Seagate 200gb I'm sure they will even optimize the game even...

    Water or Air?

    Just looked at the two you mentioned and the Zalman impressed me a lot. Not only does it look good it is cheap too. A quick search and I got it for 34.00 shipped from directron.com. Can't wait to oc with this thing. Thanks

    Water or Air?

    I forgot to mention that, I do want it quiet. Maybe I just need a better fan but mine is really loud and annoying.

    Water or Air?

    Which is better Water cooling or Air cooling? I know right off water is better but it is probably more expensive, and I need to know HOW much better it is to cope with the price. I just bought a new motherboard to oc my Athlon xp 2100+. I have just the fan that came with the cpu and it is not...

    What mobo/cpu combo to buy?

    I for one am extremely biased towards Athlons so I suggest you get one of those. i've read all over that the athlon xp's with the Barton core oc extremely well. I have yet to purchase one because my 2100 has been to handle everything fine for now. As for a motherboard, basically most of them...

    Problem with new mobo

    Today I got my new Shuttle AN35N-Ultra board which is a HUGE improvement over my old ECS K7S5A. I installed it no problems. Everything appeared to be running perfect. I started playing Tacops, about 10 mins in the screen would freeze and my music would freeze for several seconds at a time. Then...

    Compusa Codes

    Did they work on anything at all? Codes are usually a little more cryptic than those, they don't seem to real to me. I'm going to go try them on regular stuff.
