For a long time I only gave the books in morrowind a cursory glance
every now and then, but with my current char I started up collecting my
own library. :D
I have gathered up all the books that were worth more than 100gp in
value to my...

Hello,
I am on a budget built now. I play medium games and use pc for surfing and programming.
I am considering a g2120 +hd7750 for vs i5 with no gpu
what would be the best.
I've been looking at buying a Sapphire 7850 to replace my Nvidia GTS450.
I'm a bit concerned that my 500w psu will not be enough to handle it.
Intel i5-2500 sandy bridge. 4gb corsair RAM. AsROCK H61m/u3s3.
Also, How would I go about attaching the "power connector"? as I have never done it when...
I am Going to be building a gaming/media PC with a budget. I researched processors and parts for a few days and came up with this build. Just want to know if it would work and be effective playing WOW on ultra with a good frame rate. looking to spend about $500. This build is $525. I already...
I've been playing around with overclocking the Q8200 I bought a few weeks ago. Since buying the chip, I've heard a lot about how terrible it is and everything else but oh well. It was a decent deal and some of the complaints (no virtualization) aren't likely to really affect me any time soon...
Hey guys, say you have a heavy CPU heatsink and you're worried about your motherboard being damaged.
What would happen if you were to lay your tower on it's side?
i am going to be building a new gaming Pc to play some of the newer games (Far cry 2, crysis, bioshock 2) and some of the upcoming games (SKYRIM = AWESOME!!!) and i was wondering which one of these cases to choose...

I just put together my first pc build ever and the temp of the cpu is worrying me.
As I am typing this with no programs running in the background, PC Wizard 2012 is telling me that the cpu is at 51 celsius while all cores are at 5ish % load.
Isn't...
What causes power supply smoke? Mine was smoking and It turned my computer off. I figured out I could get it to turn back on if I removed the small CMOS round battery, but then the PSU REALLy started to smoke. What do I do to fix this??
I'm looking at building my first home server and could use some advice. I'd like to get advice on what hardware would best suit my needs. The server will be used for storing backups of home PC's and Mac's, storing pictures, music and movies, it will be used to stream movies to various devices...

Hi today is my birthday, and because I'm alone, I though I'd create this
article.
Basically it's not suposed to be trolling, but a proposal to a lengthly
discussion...
Im wondering if the amount of load you put on a psu will greatly effect its longevity; say if i have a rig and have a 500W psu in it that operates at 100% load all the time and a clone of that rig doing the same things with a 1000+W psu and both psu are otherwise of the same quality will the...

Basically what I want is a task manager add-on(OR Other program completely) that adds the ability to monitor other information.
Like being able to see how much Bandwith a program is using, How much disk usage, what ports it is using, How many Hertz of CPU power it is using and other stuff.

Is there a "sniper" mode on the Dday invasion level? It often tells
me to use the sniper mode of Ltrigger and then that x control on l

Hi, I have an LGA 1155 based motherboard (z68). I read somewhere that the new Ivy Bridge CPUs will have the 1155 socket. Will the new CPU run on a P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 motherboard? I'm just wondering because the mobo supports PCI-e 3.0, but the i5/i7 2xxx processors don't.
Last week PC would not start. It would start to power up and shut down after 1- 2 seconds. I pulled the PSU and tested it externally and it ran fine. I connected 1 DVD drive and PSU would slowly die. I figured it was DOA. I replaced the PSU and everything powered up and ran fine. Now (4...
**UPDATE **
It's strange but it appears that somehow I may actually have gotten the board stable at 3.088. I was really frustrated and messing around, so I have to check the settings, but I am sure that I bumped NB voltage and relaxed memory to 650... Let me run some more tests and I will update...

Are there any comparability issues with this build? I'm right about to purchase it and wanted to make sure first since it's my first custom in a while.
I want it to run BF3 at 1080p
Seagate is only the second vendor to offer a 500 GB hard drive, but such a large capacity comes at a price. Despite a full five-year warranty and other features, the Barracuda 7200.9's speed fails to live up to its predecessor - and that is not a good precedent to set for hard drives in general...

Hi there.
PIII 1.4GHz at 1575MHz and 1.55 core voltage (1.45 stock)
Idle temps are around the 35C - 38C mark. Running UD research thingy 41C - 42C. Occasionally at 43C.
One side of the case off BTW. Once re-attached there will be a 80mm fan over the CPU & chipset.
Case temps are usually 3C...
