    Best active digitizer hybrid

    I was psyched for dells new xps 11, until I got mine delivered. For months I heard it would come with an active digitizer. I only realized after failing to get any response from a gifted stylus, that the dell website claims it is only capacitive touch. From what I can tell, there is not way to...

    Best Low Profile CPU Cooler

    I'm sorry, I guess I shouldn't have used the phrase "Low Profile". In actuality, I don't really care how big it is, so long as it fits in under 139mm tall. After seeing the performance of the GeminII, I think I want to go with that one, but how can I be sure that it will fit length and width...

    Best Low Profile CPU Cooler

    My computer had a bit of an accident, and my old heatsink doesn't seem to work as well as it should. Temps are up, the fan is always running full speed, and I think I need to replace it. My cpu is overclocked a pretty significant amount, so I'm looking for some help on the best cooler for my...

    Help with Eyefinity

    I keep seeing that the flex version (which isn't much more, and saves me having to buy 2 active display ports) supports 5 monitors. It also says it can support 3 dvi, giving the dvi-sl, dvi-dl, and hdmi as an example. Does anyone know if this means I can use a simple $5 passive dp->dvi for my...

    Help with Eyefinity

    I was hoping to buy a radeon 7950 to hook up my 4 monitors. I know I can do this, but I have heard that with eyefinity, I need to have one hooked up with a display port. First of all, can I set eyefinity to use 3 monitors while gaming and have a 4th one sitting unused? Nvidia states this...

    7950 and or processor

    Ok, I'll likely do the 7950, and possibly crossfire it later. As it is, I game with only 1 monitor, and sometimes have firefox/chats on my right/left. As it is, this cuts the main monitors fps pretty significantly... The rest of my setup should be fine? or does anyone have any suggestions for...

    7950 and or processor

    In the past I have preferred nvidia, as it consistently got better fps in games and I have heard its better for drivers. Well, it seems that is no longer the case. So I am now looking to upgrade, as my current 2 cards aren't really cutting it anymore. Naturally, I want to continue running my 4...
