I pulled the trigger on a Gigabyte M27Q and it seems like it will work well, and being on sale didn't hurt. However I have a stuck pixel that shows if there is a white background on the desktop. I have not seen it in a game yet. I tried running jscreenfix first for 15 minutes, then 20, then...

Is this a good price for an AE-7? It seems newer than an AE-5. I just want some better sound than on board audio for games. I've upped my budget a little bit from an earlier post. I don't think I need an external DAC for what I'm doing. Also do I need the desktop volume control or is that...

I found these in a box in the back of the closet. Evidently I had delusions of grandeur for my 8800GTS that was replaced years ago. I guess these might be considered "vintage" now that they are over 5 years old.

I built a new PC about 2 years ago and I'm looking to upgrade the sound. I'm currently using the on-board sound on an Asus ROG Strix X470-F. I haven't bought a sound card in about 12 years and the last one I owned was a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic 7.1. I have a basic set of desktop...

I currently have a Samsung Syncmaster S24B240 and a Geforce GTX 1660Ti and I'm looking for a replacement. I've been reading about IPS, VA, bad blacks, good blacks, curves, color gamuts, 1080 vs 1440 and my brain is melting at this point. I don't play competitive gaming although I do...

So with all the stay at home stuff going on and a fiber connection I wanted to see about upgrading my 5 year old Asus RT-N66U router. I don't need bleeding edge and I don't want to spend a huge amount of money. I was looking at the AC-86U but didn't know if that was still viable. I have two...

So I started my new build with this thing and I had a couple of questions. 1. I am running a single graphics card (1660Ti) and was thinking about installing it in the 2nd PCIe slot. All 3 are listed as PCI 16. That would bring the exhaust fans about 3 inches from the bottom of the case...

So after pricing a 2TB Evo SSD I've realized that large SSD drives are way out of my budget. I have a couple of Seagate Barracuda 320GBs I use for storage that are about 13 years old and nearly full. Is it worth using a Hybrid drive for storage? If not what is a good brand of "spinner"? I...

So I'm getting ready to start building my new Ryzen rig. I open the CPU box and carefully slide the cooling fan out. I turn it over and see this: I can't tell if it is a divot or a piece of embedded something. Should I wipe everything off and apply something new, see if I can pick it off...

Help me check myself before I wreck myself for a gaming PC. I play older games on Steam like Sins of Solar Empire and War Thunder (barely) but would like to start World of Warships, Mechwarrior 5 and whatever new Star Wars games may come out. My son wants to get into Fortnite but I don't have...

Forgive me PC gods for I have sinned. It has been 11 years since my last PC build and this new technology amazes me. Here's the info: 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Primarily gaming and web browsing. Would like to be able to play Battlefront II...

My EVGA GeForce 8800 GTS died and I was able to get a warranty RMA. This was the 2nd video card I have used in my 8year old system. I'm running an Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe with an AMD Athlon64 X2 6000+. EVGA is sending a GTX 750 Ti as a replacement...

I have a never used Zalman Fanmate2 and cable for sale for $3.00. I found it in the box for a Zalman GPU fan for a computer I no longer own. If you want I'll put it in a padded envelope to save on shipping. I think it is stupid to throw it away since it is perfectly usable.

Hey folks, Can you use 91% Isopropyl alcohol on motherboards, memory, etc without an issue? For example, can I spray those components with the alcohol and let it dry? Will it discolor copper on heatsink fins? I've already tried air cans but have some really stubborn residue.

I looked through the forums but couldn't find an exact answer, and I've spent a day on this already. My brother has an Evga 680i rev A1 in an Antec 900 case. I am looking for a good CPU heatsink fan/combo. The Turiq won't fit the case from what I have read, but the Zalman 9500 or 9700 might...

Folks, I can get an XPS700 for about $1,300 with a 3.0Ghz Pentium D 930. Is this a decent processor or should I upgrade to say, a 950? I don't need to be "bleeding edge" with Conroe as I don't think I will be able to afford a Conroe-based system when they come out. Also, I do not plan to...

Any thoughts on whether or not putting a "newer" (as in 6600GT, X800GTO, 6800XT) $150 video card into the following will make any difference? I almost feel like it would be putting a BMW engine into a Yugo: AthlonXP 2200 @ 1.8Ghz Biostar M7NCD motherboard 1 GB (2x512) CORSAIR ValueSelect...
