Hey there... So I bought the ACER T231H bmidh Touchscreen monitor, which worked (as a monitor, at least) right out of the box. However, I cannot for the life of me get the touch screen to function. (Yes, I know there are two connections, and it is connected via the DVI and USB). I'm running...

Is the 560 really worth the extra $50 or so?

Confused about one point however: EVGA Makes a bunch of slightly different models of GTX 460 GPUs. The all have model numbers like this: 01G-P3-13XX-TR but the XX is replace by a number. I can't decide which one of them I need, and they are all above $200 except the SE version (Which I...

Wow it's been a while since I updated this.... sorry work has been crazy busy. I'm ordering the power supply, SSD, one of the graphics cards, OS, and one set of RAM. After that, I should be able to get the OS installed and get everything running :) The second set of RAM, graphics card, etc. can...

Got my motherboard today. It's amazing. And it weighs a ton. I almost have enough parts to get it put together and atleast get the OS installed. :)

I just got my processor and Disc Drive.... I found out they charged the motherboard as a separate order because it would ship separately... it should be here tomorrow or the following day!

Awesome. I eventually want to have 3, maybe 4, but that would require a bigger desk, with some shelving or something :P

Question about multiple monitors... do the EVGA GTX 460s have multiple DVI ports? If not, what would you say is the best setup for 3 monitors?

What I really like is that some of the cables are supposed to be removable on the HX750, right?

Ok cool. Got worried there for a second. BTW, I decided to go with an HX750 instead of 650; I used one of the wattage calculators based on my prospective setup, and it was right around 700W.

It's kinda weird... Amazon says that my three items will be shipping together, but they charged my bank account $200 less than they should have.... which means they didn;t charge for the motherboard.... do they sometimes split payments up?

Yep :) Then just the GPU and SSD to install the OS. I'm really excited about this :)

UPDATE: Received my shipment today, and ordered: -Intel Core i7-950 -ASUS Sabertooth x58 Motherboard -Lite-on Lightscribe DVD/CD RW drive It's slowly starting to come together :P

UPDATE: I've ordered the first small set of parts: -Samsung F3 1TB HDD -CoolerMaster Hyper 212+ -NZXT Sentry 2 I'll be ordering the next set (Motherboard, Processor, and a Lite-on DVD drive) this week on pay day!

Looking at case fans right now... trying to find some good LED or cold cathode fans. What I'd really like to do is add a sound sensitive inverter to the cold cathodes on the fans so they pulse with the music... know a good brand I should look at? And is what I'm talking about possible? I would...
