    Possible issue with Samsung 830 128GB SSD

    I could use the communities help with an issue. I recently upgraded my wife's computer with a new MoBo, CPU, Memory, and SSD Hard drive. (It is screamin' fast....when it's working right). Here are the components I used: MoBo: GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0...

    First time HTPC build for 1080 HD Output

    Thank you for that info jaguarskx, quite helpful. One more quick question for the community though. I want to digitize my entire movie collection so I don't have to rely on inserting dvd's to watch a movie, while DVD's aren't really an issue I haven't been able to figure out how to transfer a...

    After installing monitor driver, I lost 1920x1200 (wide) resolution

    Samsung 2343bwx : 2048 x 1152 : is this good?

    I too am curious whether this monitor is good. I want to purchase a 24" monitor and have been looking for like a month but I haven't been able to decide, there are so many options to think about in a monitor it is sickening. At any rate, I use my computer almost strictly for gaming and...
