My worthless take, I have seen motherboards mishandle the SPD timings considerably. I'm not sure why but I think certain BIOS are expecting a certain type of SPD and if it doesn't get precisely what...

Another possible scenario is a manufacturer that always stands behind their product, but you get tired of RMAing their junk every 6 months. They didn't tell me no, but I just needed a computer that...

One possible solution found.

I prefer to have video cards a little behind the technology of the rest of the system. It is much more cost effective that way.

For instance, do cpu(ivy), mobo(7-series mobo), ram(DDR1600),...

Maybe you can buy another 60gb drive and run them in RAID. Check to see if the SSD drive manufacturer recommends against this first. I think the only thing you can do is experiment. Hope it...

Don't even think of using that 400w PSU for anything. Dispose of it along with the rest of the system.

Alot of people claim to never have problems with OEM hard drives. I'm like you, though, I refuse to buy them. I have my speculations on that. I think we may have similar reasoning but re-hashing...

Sort of. Price still makes AMD attractive. Nvidia, with their massively huge resources finally waking up in a fart cloud to reclaim VGA performance didn't come like a death-knell to me, however...

Read as many reviews on iBuyPower as you can, check out their website, and see if that's what you're looking for.

IMO, though, what's hard about assembling a MB, PSU, CPU, RAM, and VGA? Having...

Blu ray is the only widespread format that can hold the data requirements of HD Audio. Otherwise, DVDs are cheap, and they look great on Blu Ray players. I guess you could mention that there are...

Readyboost is completely useless. It has an imperceptible effect on system performance in every circumstance.

Hi tech phones are too easy to lose, break, or get stolen. Phones are magical devices that let you talk to someone far away in great urgency. That's high-tech enough dammit.

Carter Bank and Trust who bought Patrick Henry, the original bank I opened the account with. Only bank I've never had a problem with. They take care of me, and they don't try to screw me over. ...

Been using openjdk & IcedTea for years. No worries.

Honestly, I'm sick of hearing it. I don't believe I ever saw a convincing assessment of the claim. I think it comes from a huge influx of technically inept columnists.

Viruses slow down computers because it takes alot of system resources to stay hidden, and to keep an antivirus from interfering with its existance. From what I've been reading about viruses and...

Fart sniffing is a religion too I'm sure.

Compiz. The LXDE taskbar. That is my window manager. Nothing else but that. KDE sucks. Gnome has sucked since day one. And you know, I have apps from those and from XFCE and it doesn't matter. ...

My sata cable flops off my mechanical drive about once every six months. And they have locking clips on them. Not big fan of SATA connectors, myself. I have thought about gluing them on but I...

Definately no Robin Hood with a bow and arrow on that one. No big deal, say what you want. :) Maybe someone will respond who has thought about it?

Intel socket 2011 basically.

Why? Isn't it really time to fix the industry-wide PC motherboard memory system bottleneck?

Is it possible that is a quote from a scene in Kill Bill or Kill Bill 2? Bump.

Not trying to steer you anywhere because every service has caveats. Dish Network has been working with Sling Media and deploying this technology for a few years now already. At this time it was/is...

Ah ya took the plunge. lol. congratulations you two.

I have noticed that with Soundblaster cards, it's typical for system stability to come and go. I've not ever had stability issues caused by onboard sound even once. But I'm guessing the...
