I've had a lot of success overclocking the CPU in my system but I can't seem to get the RAM to overclock without making performance worse in games. It causes a visible stuttering without an actual drop in framerate in Battlefield 3. This is surprising to me considering I made sure to buy an...

The company reacts to regain some of its lead in the race through the rodent technology maze.

Was wondering which one of these monitors you guys would suggest I buy, will mainly be used for gaming but also for watching films and general web-browsing etc. Was at first looking at 22" but I'l probably be sat a bit to close for it to be worth it. Anyways, which would you suggest? PS. Feel...

I have an lcd monitor that I want to use to watch tv. I know I can buy a video card with a tv tuner with hdtv support or, theoretically, I could get a hdtv tuner and a cable that's vga or dvi on one end and has hd inputs on the other end and then use the remote from the tuner to change channels...

So I'm in the market for an LCD monitor, and I'm pretty concerned about shelling out all this cash for a monitor with dead pixels. I'm almost certainly going to be buying online, so there's no way to try before I buy. I know some websites allegedly have a 'zero dead pixel' return policy...

Any suggestions for a good 19" CRT monitor, for game playing!

I'm trying to decide what would be better, a speedy monitor or a sleek looking monitor? I've read reviews and both monitors sound great. If anyone can help that would be great. =)

I just ordered my computer parts for my gaming and editing PC, but it never occurred to me that it might overheat on my carpet floor which I'm planning to set it on. Would it be beneficial to create a hollow platform for my computer to sit on so that it doesn't get hotter than it needs to? I...

Well, I have a friend who asked me to build him a new computer (His is an ancient AMD Athlon 64) and I recently built my own with an AMD a10 5800k so I said i would. He can't spend any more that $600 and needs a monitor. He also highly prefers to have an AMD processor. He has used them almost...

Hi guys - I was planning to build a NAS with AsRock Z77E-ITX and RocketRaid 2720SGL and didn't realise that mobo only has one 16x PCI-E slot while the RocketRaid is an 8x slot (shorter). I'm thinking if there's an adapter to bridge this, or if there's a SATA3 port multiplier that I can use? I...

Hi, I have 2 WD Caviar SE 16MB cache drives in my machine, which I intend to use in a RAID 0 array purely for games and data. I need to get a new drive for the OS, and the mobo uses SATAII. Does anyone know whether I would be able to use a 74GB Raptor (a SATA 150Gb/s drive) with this board...

I need reviews on the GA-8ITXR to find out if it is overclockable. The reason? It has ONE MORE PCI slot than the TH7-II, and I need all the PCI slots I can get. Is the GA-8ITXR even stable for overclocking? What's the max bus speed and max voltage? How about the RDCG's, are they better or...

I want to make a semi portable "semi-laptop", so i thought a mini-itx mobo notebook would do. I need a quad core cpu, so i thought i could go with a quad core AMD APU (Unlocked i.e. K series) and under-clock it. Since its under-clocked, an air cooling system is good enough too, using 40mm -...
