    System shutting down semi-randomly, fans still running

    I agree with jnkweaver. Sounds like insufficient power.

    NEED ADVICE FOR New Gaming PC Build - $1000 Budget

    csf60 beat me to it. Why in god's name would you spend so much money on an inferior card. I would definately go for the 7970.

    Thinking about O.C./updating 3 yr old PC

    Yeah, I was hoping to spring for a hd 7850 2ghz cause I know that would make a huge difference. Money is an issue at the moment. I'll just save and wait. I was thinking of buying a nice CPU cooler and O.C'ing the i7.

    Would this work with BF3?

    I'm gonna have to say not a chance. DX11 games and integrated graphics don't go in the same sentence.

    Returning Hard Drive that has windows on it

    My WD Caviar Black crashed on me this past weekend. I couldn't go without a pc so I went to best buy and bought a hard drive to use while WD sends me a replacement. My question is, how can I get windows and the couple programs I installed off of the hard drive before I return it?

    $400 budget, 1 good card or 2 ok cards SLI/Crossfire?

    The 23" monitor is already too big for my desk. So that's out of the question. What if your were impatient? I don't necissarily have to have the latest card.

On a $400 budget, should I go with a $400 card, or 2 ~$200 cards? Which would you recommend, bang for...

    P6X58D-E getting SATA III to work

    I just built a new pc with this mobo in it. I bought a WD Caviar black sata III 6/gbs because this mobo has the connection. When I ran my win 7 system rating, it only gave the hard drive a 5.9 out of 7.9 That seems a little low for this hard drive. Do I need to activate the sata III somehow...
