Question Are there any new cases similar to the HAF-X? I have special needs.

CM Cosmos II or a Silverstone TJ04B both have front panel USB3, support for 3 optical drives, and space for plenty of HDDs.

Question sTRX4 Cooling Data or Lack Thereof

I feel like when I got into building about 15ish years ago this wasn't the case, and there were a lot more sites and the competition forced more and more in depth reviews. So entertaining this for a minute, and I wouldn't listen to anyone except you or Ruby on this really (I've been lurking...

Question sTRX4 Cooling Data or Lack Thereof

I've been doing a lot of digging recently trying to compare larger based coolers for an upcoming sTRX4 platform build that I'm planning. Although I've gone through the usual suspects including but not limited to here at Anandtech, FrostyTech, HardOCP/Forums, Toms, and really everyone else, I've...

Triple Display Question

I'd like to spend under 100$. Monitors are generic dell 1280x1024s with VGA and DVI inputs. I don't have an exact model on the monitors for you unfortunately.

Triple Display Question

Hey guys, This should be a straightforward issue but unfortunately I'm reading a lot of confusing and conflicting information around the net and I figure this is always the best place to ask. I need to run 3 monitors, all off VGA or DVI, from a low profile, single slot card where the heatsink...

Flashing BIOS on DFI X58, need help.

Really didn't give me any more information than what I already have. DFI discontinued the Lanparty line, I have no idea what their Diamond Flash utility is, how to get it, or how it works. I have no idea what to do with the optional zip they have for doing the update either. There is no...

Flashing BIOS on DFI X58, need help.

I have my old system with the DFI X58 t3eh6 board in it and I need to flash the BIOS as its been having some random issues booting that seem related to the BIOS. The problem is a lot of DFI's tools and help topics are gone even if they still offer the actual downloads. On a Win7 x64 system...

Is My Older Soundcard Still Better Than Onboard?

I'm using the Swan M10 2.1 speakers. I'm also worried that since I've been using the A2ZS for years when I hear the onboard I may perceive it as being dull, as I'm quite used to how my card sounds.

Is My Older Soundcard Still Better Than Onboard?

Going to be doing a rebuild soon and I've been using my old SB Audigy 2 ZS for years. Its a bit annoying because its PCI and limits my motherboard choices at times, but because I'm usually doing a full ATX board it hasn't been too much of a problem. However I'm going to be moving to an Asrock...

Rumor is, DFI is bringing back the LanParty series.

This would be the best mobo related news in a very long time. My LP DK X58 is still running strong and is a great OCing platform. I've also been missing that classic Lanparty color scheme in recent boards.

Modern Power Supplies: You know what grinds my gears...?

I'd rather we all took a minute to bitch about the placement of 4 and 8 pin CPU power connectors and how the wire is NEVER long enough to route behind the board in any reasonably sized case. v_v That being said, yes, SATA power cables suck, but I see someone recommended using those little short...

Best Wireless AC Adapter?

Hello folks, I decided to bring my home network into the 21st century with all my other technology. I've been putting a new router on the back burner for a couple of years now and am finally lining up what I want to buy. Newegg is having a sale on the Buffalo AC1750 so I'll be picking one of...

The Phantom is an excellent case, and I would probably recommend it over the others.
