I use godaddy for my domain registration and pay the extra bit for privacy.
My domain expires next year and I'd like to renew but was wondering if there was anything cheaper since it's like $20/year basically ($10/domain, $10/privacy).
Lol.
I'm not a hardcore gamer, so not sure if I really need anything too powerful, the IRIS graphics aren't great but they work okay for most games I've attempted so far. I prefer a PC much more than a MAC, so this could be interesting. I'll report back based on how this goes.
The Windows 7 I have is from Microcenter, one of their OEM's I think.
Here's a question.
I have a Mac Mini from late 2014 (http://www.apple.com/mac-mini/specs/, it's the $999 one, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB Fusion Drive, 2.8 GHz).
If I were to install Bootcamp and install Windows 7 64-bit, would...
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
-- Chicago, IL (Curious why this matters)
6) Will you be overclocking?
-- Nope
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
--1920x1200 (27" and 24")
8) When do you...
Hah, okay, I'm open to that for sure.
I'm thinking $500, what do you guys think that will get me?
Can I put something together that is pretty good with that budget? I need everything new: Case, PSU, MB, RAM, Video Card, etc.
Any suggestions on parts?
Question... Are IDE hard...
I'm looking to get a new desktop computer, but I'm not sure if I should custom build it or if I should buy a fully completed one.
I recently bought a 256 GB SSD hard drive but besides that the rest of my computer parts are around 2-5 years old.
What do you guys suggest?
Here's what I...
I have a computer that's about 6 years old, with the following components:
Gigabyte G31M-ES2L motherboard
(http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3485#sp)
2x 2 GB RAM sticks for 4 GB (of which Windows 7 seems to recognize only 3 GB)
CPU is Dual-Core E6300 at 2.8 GHz

Are there any good free softwares that will track where your URLs take you?
i.e. It will tell you if you got 302'd somewhere (redirected) and give you status headers and such until you get to final destination.
I need to replace my old DFI LanParty MB which I believe was Socket 939.
My current CPU is a AMD64 X2 3800+.
This is just a spare computer that I plan on using to watch movies (on a projector, so like an HTPC) and nothing else, I have one in my room that I use currently.
I was thinking...
My buddy has an 8800 GTX video card and was considering getting another one for $60-70 to set up SLI.
I was wondering if the performance gain from SLI with 2x 8800 GTX's would be considerably better than paying $150-200 for a new recent graphics card?
oh yeah, i am interested in java and .net development but for the sake of this project at school, it's just really to find out more about where resources are found and where information is gathered. not so much about the specifics, but where the specifics are found.
i'm trying to learn more about this field for a market research project i'm doing at school. so, understanding where enthusiasts gather information, find solutions, etc. basic information you can find just on google, i want to learn more about how a daily user goes about his day and such in...
I am doing some research on these topics and I was wondering basically where most of the enthusiasts or people that work in this area usually get their information and data from. Any good sites, magazines for reference?
My friend is looking for an inexpensive computer upgrade so he can play some of the recent games that may be coming out. He's a casual gamer but would like some decent stuff but has a limited budget...
He has a budget of around $325 I'd say.
He needs basically everything:
Case, MB, PSU...
I'm a novice in graphic design. I have the tools necessary such as Adobe CS4 and Illustrator but I'm not sure how to really utilize the power of each product.
Right now I'm trying to make a holiday flyer and I have some general ideas that I can lay out on a piece of scratch paper in terms of...
My system idle temperature is around 42-44 degrees Celsius with the stock cooling fan from intel. I have this:

as my CPU.
My load temperature is around 65-67 degrees Celsius.
Does anyone know how to convert a MSWMM file to an AVI?
There are a number of tools on the internet but I'm not sure which would work, does anyone have prior experience in this? The goal is to upload the file to the internet so it can be seen on a website.
I was just wondering, how much faster would a Core 2 Duo processor be compared to a DualCore and Pentium CPU if both have the same amount of GHz?
Like, let's put Pentium M at 5 on a scale of 1-10, where would the other CPU's be in terms of benchmarking and stuff?
I just built a new computer with 4 GB of RAM (computer specs in signature) but for some odd reason it only shows 3.0 GB of RAM and not 4.0, is it because it's win xp 32-bit or something? If so, can someone explain the whole reasoning behind this?
yeah, i bought the 9600gt, the psu and the HD last june 2008 and then some stuff came up where i couldn't finish putting my computer together. at the time, the 9600gt was i guess respectable, obviously now, it's kinda old school but i suppose it'll rock my current x1800xt on my other computer.
the items were already purchased and i was just wanting some feedback as to the things i bought to see if it would work out well together. i'm starting to wonder if perhaps i should've gotten an AMD CPU instead of an Intel given the cost and everything and i didn't even get core 2 duo but it...
I'm a pretty casual gamer overall and I intend on playing SC2 and D3 when they come out pretty hardcore for a few weeks and then I'll probably just stop. Until then, I'll be using my computer for some intense Spreadsheet sheet, watching TV shows, surfing the internet, occasional photoshop and...

erm, what do you think is best given my budget? i'm not really sure... i haven't been following RAM for awhile, last i heard was DDR2 was good back in the day, lol...
I'm building a computer right now, I'm not sure what MB I'll get just yet but overall, my budget for MB and CPU is $200 combined. Any suggestions? I'll be using the computer mostly for SC2 and D3 when they come out as well as viewing Blu-ray movies and Excel/Surfing stuff.
Obviously, the...
I haven't been following MB's for a little while and I was wondering if some people could point me to some quality MB's (Intel) that are less than $100 (the cheaper price, the better).
I have a pretty tight budget so obviously if there is something really cheap but a great deal, that would be...
I am using AVG and it notes that almost every single .exe. file i have ever used has been infected by Tanatos.M or Win32/Heur. A lot of these files are precious backup files too that I downloaded that are no longer available.
First off, is what AVG is saying legit? are these files infected...
So today I decided to format my computer. My computer has like 4 HDs and they all have the correct drive letter.
I reset my computer and boot from windows CD. my drive letters are all fucked up. my C drive is now my F drive and etc.
I figure it will turn itself around after the format so I...
