I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo 2540 (or something like that... dual-core Turion 64, 2GB RAM and so forth) laptop. It's.... 4 years old or thereabouts I believe. I gave it to my mother two years ago, and then now took it back after it started "malfunctioning". The problem is that it works very...

Very, VERY Long Post – you’ve been warned :p Right, so as some may have gathered from other threads, my Silverstone SG03B build is finally "finished" after something of a rocky road to get there. This is some sort of "retrospective" build log, as well as pondering on any future...

So, I got my brand spankin' new Gainward GTX 460 GS-GLH yesterday. Unfortunately, it's not only spankin' the games to go faster, but it's also spankin' my ears with its noise :( I was sort of afraid this might happen despite reviewers claiming 460s are quiet, given that reviewers seem to test...

Right. So I'm not sure what's up. I bought this Samsung NC10 netbook in April '09 or so. It worked fine with external displays up to Dec '09 or so, when it suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason. That's still the case, and I figure it's really time to get to the bottom of this. What...

Since I've been planning on a bit of an upgrade for my graphics card, I was wondering if there's any consensus as to which HD 5770 model would be the "best" as far as low noise (this being the primary consideration) and preferably also low temps (important secondary consideration, since I have...

asically, when I got this new computer in September or so, going to and resuming from sleep mode worked correctly. But then, resuming suddenly stopped working, and hasn't worked since. The error message I get is the same as this guy here (but only when resuming, not when (re)starting)...

Currently I'm running my SG03 with a Core i5 750 + H50 CPU cooler and a passively cooled GPU to minimize noise. However, there's some problems. Mainly, the damn PSU is too loud, which kinda negates the purpose of the silent H50 (making it an annoyance since it's hard to fit and expensive)...

I've been looking at undervolting my system. In fact, at the very first boot of this i5 750 system (as per signature) I undervolted the CPU to 1.0625V, which was the lowest stable voltage SPCR found for their CPU sample at stock speeds. I didn't touch other voltages until today, though...

I'm looking for a new PSU as part of my coming new computer. But I'm at bit of a loss. Thing is I need it to be powerful enough (around 400W). But it also needs to be silent and reliable, and have good efficiency. Preferably modular, as the SG03 isn't necessarily the best case for doing cable...

I was wondering about something and haven't found or figured an answer to. Now, I normally don't need much in the way of addon cards on my computer. Usually it's just been the graphics card and a sound card. But in the case of the P55M-UD2, I started wondering how it'll work. If I use...

As per the title, has anyone heard even the faintest of rumors about a mini-ITX board for the LGA1156 socket? There's of course no mini-ITX LGA1336 even yet, with the socket having been out for a while, but I suppose with how much power that took and therefore the thermal requirements, it...

I just recently put together my first SFF system (Sugo SST-SG06 + Zotac 9300-ITX). CPU was planned more or less to be temporary (E5200), but I've been thinking of expediting the upgrade to happen before Windows 7 launch. The E5200 would serve well enough performance-wise for now, but given the...
