Currently I have a machine with a 3.0 GHz C2D (6 MB L2), 3 GB RAM, a GTX 260, and a 500 GB HDD with Windows 7 Ultimate installed (used 7 Ultimate upgrade media, performed clean install from existing Vista installation). I intend on purchasing an OCZ Vertex SSD and would like to have it as my...

With Windows 7 coming up, I plan on buying an SSD and having it run in conjunction with my existing 500 GB 7200 RPM HDD. My plan is to make the SSD my primary drive, and install 32-bit Windows 7 OS files on the SSD. Then I would put the pagefile/documents/music/games/everything else on the...

I plan on upgrading from my 8800GT to either a GTX 260 or a GTS 250. The only problem is that the GTX 260 is 10.5" long, and I'm worried it will cover up all four of my SATA ports. The GTS 250 however is the same length as the 8800GT. Is it possible to install a GTX 260, but still have...

My processor is a 2.33 GHz C2D, but when I view the computer's properties it says 1.98 GHz below the 2.33 GHz speed: However, I have also seen it read 2.33 GHz instead of 1.98 GHz on some occassions: Any explanation? Is my CPU underclocked or is it just getting incorrect readings?

Grabbed a leaked Microsoft link for the 32-bit version 2 hours before the beta went live, and then grabbed a key some 4-5 hours after the beta went live (lucky refresh). I read that someone installed Windows 7 on a 1 GHz processor and 512 MB RAM and "ran well". Fortunately I have a similar...

I currently have two external hard drives, both Seagates (160 GB, 320 GB). I've owned the 160 for two years and the 320 for one year. I'm considering buying this 1 TB drive from Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136321 so I can consolidate my data onto one...

http://www.nbc.com/Vintage_Shows/A_Team/video/episodes/ I couldn't believe it when I saw it. That show is a classic, great laughs over the cheesy special effects, and the actors are great According to TV guide they are bringing back: The A-Team, Emergency!, Kojak, Miami Vice, Buck...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814103050 The Radeon HD 3870 has the best bang-for-buck and beats many 8800GT's statistically. However, I've never owned an ATi card, so I don't know how well it will perform in games such as Crysis and COD4. Opinions? Any users...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130327 I'm getting that particular graphics card at a highly reduced price from someone I know. Any opinions on this card? I'm going to replace my 8600GT

First question: Is 4 GB of RAM really necessary? I've got a 256 MB nVidia 8600GT that can run COD4 and Crysis just fine, and roughly 1.5 GB / 2 GB of my RAM is used. Will having 2 more gigs of RAM help anything? Second question...

Anyone use a B/W multifunction laser printer (including fax function)? I'd like to see some personal opinions/reviews before I go out and purchase one. I'm looking for something in the mid-$200 range or less

I know that there are plenty of websites out there offering COD4 patches, but I am unsure of which websites are trustworthy. Anyone here have all the links to Infinity Ward's patches? I've got version 1.0.525 (no updates I believe)

I'd like to know what everyone's favorite uxtheme is. I figure rather than searching for themes, why not have people show me the ones they like the most! I currently have Royale Vista 2 and SlanXP 2.0 installed: http://dobee.deviantart.com/art/Royale-Vista-II-Final-55318441...

I've got an empty 3.5" floppy bay on my computer.. any ideas what to put other than liquid cooling reservoirs, card readers, or fan controllers? I can't expand it to a 5.25" since I have a mini-I/O panel next to the bay

As you can see I've got a 2.33 GHz Core2Duo, but below it it says 1.98 GHz.. any ideas what that means? Is it underclocked? If so, is it a BIOS setting to set it back to its normal clock speed?
