    No name/brand SSD

    Hello, We recently bought a few refurbished HP prodesk 600 g1 sff's from Newegg. The first batch had intel 1500 series 240gb SSD's. We just got our second batch and the 240gb ssd had no name or brand. Even in the bios it just shows up as "240GB SSD". The hardware ID field in device manager...

    Load balancing/ link aggregation home server

    Hello all, I have a weird problem that I am trying to figure out… First of all, this is not really a “practical” set up, nor is an lga-2011 based gaming computer. We all just enjoying building overkill set-ups because it is fun. So I scored a used Cisco/Linksys 24 port managed gigabit switch...

    144hz Triple Setup

    I do have 3 of the Asus VG248QE's and while the color isn't the best, the gaming experience is great. Very smooth and fast response time. If you set the height and angle right on all of them, the color should look fine when gaming in surround mode. I have 2 780ti's in sli, but crysis 3 on...

    Triple Monitor Gaming Pc Build Help Needed

    I was facing a similar dilemma not more than a month ago. Did i really want to upgrade to three 144hz monitors? Even if you don't play games, the native 144 hz is very smooth for everyday use. It makes for a very pleasurable windows experience. If you have the money, then a 144hz will...
