Bought this USB headset with the attached soundcard DSP thing and have been unable to use it thus far. I'm on XP SP3 and when I plug the headset in it goes through the detection routine- found new hardware as anticipated until I get a prompt "Device installer error. Windows could not load the...
Alright the situation has become more clouded. At the risk of revealing the huge novice I am I'll type it up in hopes someone can offer a bit of help. I suspect my video card is dying- one night while on WoW the screen locked up and turned red / artifact-y. Had to reboot the computer.. it...
I'll look into the 4670.. that sounds like a good price point. Ideally it'd be $100 or less as I said but I assume there are large gains to be had with every few dollars you can spend. Traditionally it seems that way at least I've noticed. I guess I'm wondering if there's anything that stands...
Sorry to post a new thread as there seems to be several similar questions posed on the front page alone.. but I don't have much time on this loaner PC as mine is down.
My current rig is an e8400, 2x2gb ram, 450w Corsair PSU and a now dead BFG 7900GS OC I bought on EBay a year ago when I built...
Knowing what I know now I'd probably drop back to an E7200. My 8400 + S1283 combo performs satisfactorily at stock clock for the heat of summer. I had intended to run at 3.6 or or 3.8 for daily operation but I haven't seen a need. Everything in the desktop environment happens immediately and...
I like the case also. Got mine online for $55 with free shipping. Only concerns I have with it is a bit of vibration (doubt hard drive cares for that) and the fans really shouldn't come with speeds other than low. I had them on medium for about an hour before I kicked em down. I'm sure...
Bah. Not that I was ever going to be in the market for a $6-700 card.. but why would nV try so eagerly to convince us 2 GPUs on one PCB is a good solution then drop this $650+ turd? Substantially more money for less performance isn't a winning formula. G92 looks better every day. Hopefully...
Not to drag up an old thread but there was some decent info here and I thought I could tag on to the end.
I just built a rig (e8400, DS3L (e version), Xigmatech S1283) and my idle temps are also high. After reading about the base of the HDT coolers I think my method of a single dab of TIM in...
CSX huh? I was wondering if The Garage was going to encompass trains. I'd get one of those if it'll fit in your garage.. I hear diesel is all the rage right now.
Isn't that a given?
MX-2. That crap claims to last 8 years.? Allegedly its a degree or two better than AS5. I stumbled across it but went with AS5 anyway to play it safe + evidently the MX-2 tube doesn't last many applications.
A bit off topic but is GTR2 a good game? My pc has been needing upgraded since GTR on F12002 (lolz) so the Momo has been collecting dust. Perhaps I shall give it a look with new parts en route?
I'll pretty well echo what DSF said- 700w is definitely overkill for what you've penciled in...
Never understood the Element. Its like a mommy van but somehow less attractive and functional.. how have any of these vehicles been sold? Anything you can throw a frisbee through on a commercial must be good....
Domestic replacement parts by and large remain cheaper than their foreign counterparts. The divide isn't what it was back in the days of rusting out Japanese cars inside of five years, but it remains nonetheless. That's why everyone has suggested steer well clear of the VDub.
Perhaps you...
The 550VX is plenty good. The lack of modular cables is a downer but some seem to think they're just one more cause for concern. If you're anxious to pull the trigger I'd say go for it.
