I've got a Corsair HX 850. That should be solid, I assume?

Laptop screen dark after startup

Hey guys, So I have this 2012 VAIO laptop that uses integrated Intel video and a GTX 240M video card (optimus tech.) The problem is that sometimes, especially after a restart for updates or whatnot, if I flip the lid open and click a button to bring the laptop back from sleep, everything...

30" monitor vs 27" monitor

Thanks for all the replies, guys. Piklar, thanks for posting the pic. It really puts into perspective the difference going from 27" to 30". By the way, you have a very sweet set-up. Based on the responses, it seems I'm leaning more towards the U3011, but now the only hesitance is coming from...

30" monitor vs 27" monitor

Hey guys, I have a chance to get either a brand new LG 27EA83R for $700, or a used but in excellent condition Dell U3011 for $700 as well. The LG is a 27" monitor @ 2560 x 1440. The Dell is a 30" monitor @ 2560 x 1600. I'd just like to hear what people think would be the better choice...

Need a new monitor

Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade from my 24" Benq G2410 monitor. I'm looking for something in the 27" - 30" range (higher res: 2560 x 1440 or 2560 x 1600) and great for both gaming, general usage, and watching movies. Although I've been intrigued by 120 Hz panels, I'm not a hardcore gamer...

LG 27EA83 Monitor

5150Joker: Thanks for the link. Just a couple of questions. I read a review about the monitor (the 10-bit version) and they mentioned it's great for gaming and can even overclock its refresh rate. Have you tried this? Also, is the input lag high on your version? I know there was a firmware...

LG 27EA83 Monitor

Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade my existing 24" TN panel to the LG 27EA83. I've read up a bit on it and it seems that there are two versions, the 27EA83, which uses a 10-bit color gamut, and the LG 27EA83R, which uses an 8-bit display. I'm in Canada and it seems like no online retailer...

GTX 680 Question

Hi guys, So I have a chance to purchase a used GTX 680 for $350. It's the stock EVGA model and I was wondering your thoughts in terms of price/performance at that value. Would I be better off purchasing something else brand new or should I pull the trigger? Thanks. Rest of the system...

Dual channel question

So any possible performance boost from dual channel (4 x 4 ) will be negligible? Some other forum users are saying that with an extra 8GB stick, the first 4 GB will be in dual channel, while the unused are single. So does that mean that any applications using less than 8GB RAM will keep the...

Dual channel question

Is this for sure? Can anyone else confirm this because some of the posts in the link state otherwise. http://www.overclock.net/t/1197405/4-2-6gb-in-dual-channel

Dual channel question

Hey everyone, So I just purchased a VAIO laptop with one 4GB stick soldered in and I'm looking to upgrade the remaining slot with either a 4 or a 8GB one. So my question is this - if I choose the 8GB option, will I forego dual channel capability on account of the sticks not matching size...

Concentrated mass

Thanks for all the cool replies. Very informative. And from my very limited understanding on the matter, I think something of that nature would be quark degeneracy and not neutron degeneracy, no?
