    CCC Desktop Profiles & Eyefinity

    How do I make profiles to switch between a usable 2D desktop and eyefinity for gaming? Everything I've managed to find references a mystical profile section of the CCC which either doesn't exist anymore. I figured maybe it was renamed to Presets, however, those don't seem to do anything at all...

    Failed DFI T3eh8 BIOS flash

    So I got my T3eh8 today and attempted to flash the BIOS to the newest rev: Note the one block that stands out... I tried hot-flashing the BIOS using a Supermicro X8STi (I was at work), since it also uses the same BIOS socket type, and it went through without any errors/failed blocks...

    WD1500HLFS in disty

    Looks like the 150GB Velociraptor is showing up in distribution. None in stock, but we have pricing! Here's a screenshot I just took from Ingram Micro's website: A rep at Ingram Micro also said that the "HLFS" models will be backplane compatible. He described it to me as a sled, with a...

    Zune 'converting' mp3s?

    Just got my Zune today from Woot. I'm moving my music onto it...it's all mp3 so I figured it would be a simple copy and I'm done. However, the Zune software wants to 'convert' over half my music. I was under the impression the Zune supported up to 320kbps mp3s, but it seems to want to convert...

    Yate Loon fans, not reliable?

    Over the course of the past year or so, I've bought half dozen or so Yate Loon fans (D12SL I believe). It seems as though every few months, I'll get this horrible humming noise coming from my case. Each time, a quick diagnosis reveals that this hum is coming from one of my Yate Loon fans I'm...

    What PSU do you use with your H8DCE?

    I'm considering upgrading my dual system and I've been eyeing the Supermicro H8DCE. I've also read lots of issues about the board being very picky with PSUs (though people seem to like that one Zippy PSU...but it's an arm and a leg to buy). I just wanted to get some feedback on what power...

    Mounting a rad internally inside a V2000/V2100?

    Anybody tried mounting a radiator (other than 1x120 size) internally inside a Lian Li V2000/V2100 in a way that doesn't involve cutting holes in the top of the case? I was thinking of pulling out the HDD rail walls and "hanging" (drill a few holes and using some nylon spacers) a 2x120mm rad...

    FS eVGA 7800GT CO w/ NV Silencer 5

    I upgraded to 7900GT SLI so I won't be needing my old 7800GT anymore. It's the N516 model (stock 460/1100), but due to the card being one a batch that had a bad BIOS, I flashed it to the N517 BIOS (stock 470/1100) as instructed by eVGA on their forums. I had no problems at these speeds and I...

    I'm in need of a 4 port PCI-Express x1 SATA controller card for my dualie box as the video card HSF covers one PCI slot and a sound card is going in the other PCI slot that's available and that leaves me with a single PCI-E x1 slot.

    ...decided to take a dump. I was swapping out my stock exhaust fan with a low speed Panaflo and my system booted, powered off, and wouldn't turn back on. It makes an awesome crackling noise whenever I plug a power cable into it too (is that a feature?)! Currently, I can't get anything to...

    Unlocking = AGP cards only?

    I've been browsing around seeing all these 'unlock piplines' types of things (more familiar with ATI than Nvidia), but I haven't seen any for PCI-E cards. Are there any PCI-E models that can have pipelines/shaders unlocked?

    Audigy 2 6.1 or on board Realtek ALC850 7.1?

    I recently was given an Audigy 2 (6.1 channel) sound card by a friend who is upgrading. I'm currently using the Realtek ALC850 7.1 channel codec on my board. Would it be worth it to switch over to the Audigy and lose a sound channel (I do have 7.1 Creative speakers)?
