Hello,
I was given a computer by a friend and it's an Emachine T5212 with overheating issue. It's equipped with a low end Pentium D 2.66ghz processor. I have cleaned out the dusts, removed the dried up thermal pad that was on it and applied arctic silver ceramique. Temperature in the bios says...
I really can't seem to figure it out... I will need the [H] forum's guidance on this. My computer refuses to wake from sleep mode. After I manually power off the computer and went back into Windows I get a pop up saying "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown"

Looking to replace the stock cooler and do some overclocking. I use a core i5-760 on an asus gene III socket 1156 motherboard. I would like to either have a side mounted heatsink or a top reverse mounted fan that exhausts the hot air through the psu. I do not wish to make any cutting or...
my current setup is an hp c2d 1.83ghz laptop with shitty intel graphics that doesnt even support openGL 2.0. I see theres an i5-760 going on sale for $174.99... should jump on it? Should I wait until the sandy bridge series come out and the i5 prices will drop even more?
help me decide... thanks

my previous lcd monitor was the dell 2007wfp with an S-IPS panel. i really liked the colors, the viewing angles but it was okay in games... if i look really close i could see a tiny bit of ghosting/blurring comparing to CRT.

i remember reading somewhere that this heatsink can be rotated to the direction of your choice. is this true? how can this be done?
on the zalman 7700cu?
it seems like its not handling the load temp well and i thought it would do the job if i swap with a higher cfm fan.
can it be done easily?
