Thanks, I had tried finding a site dedicated to bioinformatics hardware and couldn't find one.

Hello, I know this is a long shot, but if there is anyone here familiar with analyzing RNA-seq data or building workstations for bioinformatics I need advice on building a computer for an academic lab I recently joined. We are not a bioinformatics lab, but will be working on an increasing...

Thanks for the reply. What advantage does a WD Black have over the blue? Most people seem to recommend the blue so that's just what I went with.

Hi everyone! I'm building a computer for the first time and it will primarily be used for gaming (Wildstar, Watch Dogs, BF4, Witcher 3...). I've been doing some research the past month or so and this is what I have decided on. Any comments/advice/suggestions/compatibility checks would be...

great! thank you!

ok you convinced me, I will go with the 780 for now. And I will definitely check out those ips monitors. Just two more questions and I think I'm set. -Is this a decent motherboard and do I really get much more for getting a pricier one around the $180 range? -Can I safely over clock in the...

Also, in terms of future proofing with the 780, what if I upgraded to an SLI 770 setup in the future? Even though it's more expensive it would allow me to split up the cost over time and still lead to better performance in the end right? In that case would I need a higher wattage PSU?

Thanks for the feedback Bad_Kitty13! As far as the monitor goes I'm not really sure. Could you give me an idea of what kind of framerate I can expect to get from my build? If I'm maxing out at around 60 anyways then would it be better to get a better picture quality monitor? I'm not really...

Hi everyone. I'm looking to build my first PC and need advice on my part choices. This will primarily be a gaming PC and then just internet browsing, netflix, and such. My goal is to be able to play most current games at ultra/max setting at 1080p with 60+ fps. So first, I would like some...

Hi, I am trying to build my first PC and am having trouble deciphering the differences between the models of the 2GB EVGA GeForce GTX 770 (2770, 2771, 2773, 2774, 2776, 3771). From what I can tell it looks like some have a cooler or are super clocked but all within a similar price range. Can...
