Re: Halp.

If you are on a cable modem always make sure you have a direct run to the cable box outside. Having it in with a daisy chaned system will just cause you heart ache among many other things. It's real easy to run yourself, but most cable companies will do it if you complain enough or for about a $65.0...

Re: Hello

O ya you need this so you will be more comfortable, but you need to come up with your 40% of cost $6500.00. So I have been saving for almost...

Yes I did my research on the Tri SLI and Yes I know it's the Ultras. I do use a 42" plasma as a monitor and also a 2-22". I reread my post and I made it sound like I would add another GT. I meant to say when the price of the Ultra's drop then I'll swap and throw the GT's into my sons rig. ...

Basically if you run your HDD's in RAID 0 they are mirrored copies of eachother which speeds up the seek time. So say running 2 Sata Raptors in Raid 0 for your OS and all your games would make them run faster. Making a partiton on them for just the OS allows you to just reformat that partiton if you...

I see crucial memory on sale all the time for 39.00 for 2GB or 4GB for around 100.00. I myself am looking at changing out my VC fans with the Thermaltake fans. The cards seem to Idle at around 45-55C. I have read to many reviews and forums on them to find out whats best and that seems to be the norm...

Ya the 9600 was only in the 10,000 range on testing. I read up on them last week when they came out. I was going to be pissed if they were as good or better then the 8800GT as I just bought 2 of them. Was going to buy the third, but I figure 2 will due and I'm sure they will have the a new big dog o...

I myself went with the eVGA 780i MB it has plenty of options for upgrading when I want to. With tri-SLI should be awhile before a game will need more then 3 video cards. So I figure I'm safe for awhile anyways.
