I recently upgraded my $12 Walmart speakers to a set o' Logitech G560. This is my first experience with speakers that connect via USB. When I plugged them in, they did not work until I set them as the "Default Device" under Playback devices in the Sound settings. My Problem: If a friend decides...

Here is my computer: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/bigbadjeff/saved/ZBHFf7 What Happened: I was playing League of Legends when it froze up, completely unresponsive. I turned it off. Turned it back on. It tried to boot, but then turned itself back off. Tried again, turned itself back off, tried...

I put this list together for my Wife who will mostly use the system for Business/Work but also probably The Sims / Rollercoaster Tycoon type games. Nothing too extreme. Looking to cut costs wherever I might be able to, without sacrificing ability to last into the future (The Sims 5?)...

The Logitech G910 seems to be just as expensive. I was looking for something less than $100. Closer to the original price of the Microsoft SIDEWINDER x4.

The Monitor recommended to me on my System build was a "Acer H236HLbid 60Hz 23.0" Upon reading reviews, 60hz 5MS monitors seem to not be that great for First Person Shooters and other competitive game-play. My build will have a Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card, If that matters? I'd...

The keyboard that was suggested to me on my System Build was a "Microsoft SIDEWINDER X4 Wired Gaming Keyboard ($49.99 @ Newegg)" This keyboard is now unavailable everywhere but Amazon for $179.00, more than 3.5 TIMES the original amount. I doubt it is worth that much. Can somebody please...

I hope this will 'revive' this, as I asked this question many months ago, I put off ordering the parts until now. I am ready to order the 2 Systems. I need to know if the parts listed are still relevant, or have better models been released since? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/cHtcBm Thanks so much...

I'm not a fan of the Apple TV or Fire Stick or Chrome thing.. I usually plug my Laptop into my TV when I want to watch Shows but it's getting old having my laptop tied up on the TV... SO I wish to build a dedicated PC just for my TV. I need WiFi, a BluRay player, lots of hard-drive space for...

This price is down over $300 to $1,147.80 today for same parts, from $1,500 when posted. Do you guys think this is as cheap as it might get, or should I wait for Black Friday???

I don't plan to overclock, but if you say we're scraping the bottom of the barrel with our budget I guess I can sell a kidney or something for other hardware, and leave your set up as is. I edited my last post after you replied so I'm not sure if you saw my question; My old PC does have an old...

That was a very quick response Pr3di. $1501x2 puts me right at $3,000 also. Impressive. Thank you so much! Is this considered high end or medium?? Would we actually be able to scale some of it back and save some money for headsets, computer chairs, so maybe only like $1,000 per computer, and...

As the Title states. We are a married couple with the intention of building or buying two systems that will play any modern or near future video games with no lag. We have a TOTAL budget of $3,000. So we must factor Monitors, Mice, Keyboards, Windows. We do wish to go Intel chipset, as we...
