    Windows 8.1 - anyone upgraded yet?

    Just updated Windows RT on a Lenovo Yoga 11 tablet. Performance wise the difference is absolutely noticeable. The biggest difference for me is in IE. The browser is just so much smoother than the crap performance it was before where browsing any site felt clunky and laggy to me. Also being...

    After searching around with the above solution in mind, it doesn't look like it will suit my needs. If anyone has any suggestions about getting both cards working please let me know. Thanks!

    2 X-Fi s, 1 computer

    I hadn't thought of that. Unfortunately Mumble doesn't have a hotkey for recording which hinders on-the-fly recording. Googling third party applications does show some promise however. Definitely a lot simpler than what I was trying to do. :doh: Going to investigate further. Thanks!

    2 X-Fi s, 1 computer

    The problem I have two sound cards 1) Auzentech X-Fi Hometheater HD, 2) Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic PCI. I'm trying to get them both to work in my computer for recording purposes. The issue lies in the drivers. When I install the Auzentech drivers, the Creative device will not work and when I...

    Fan adapter brackets? 200mm to 180mm

    Hey all, Been trying to google to see if these things exist but nothing comes up. Basically I want to use a 180mm Air Penetrator as a front intake on my case but the mounting holes support only 200mm fans. Is there a bracket or anything that would convert the 200mm holes into 180mm? I'd...

    P55A-UD3 vs. Maximus III GENE

    Hey all, Just picked up some parts to put a rig together and wanted to see some opinions on a motherboard purchase. I have an i3 530 as the CPU, and I'm considering the Gigabyte P55A-UD3 motherboard. However the ASUS Maximus III GENE is at a very similar price point. I want to overclock the...

    Motherboard dead, solutions?

    Pulled out my power supply, tried using an Antec Earthwatts 500w, but still the same problem. Replaced my motherboard with an Asus P5Q, replaced my old video card (3870->4870), and the problem persists. I'm still using my Enermax 535w. Right now I'm trying out the solution by gerardfraser, I'll...

    Need a new mouse!

    I picked up an OCZ Dominatrix not too long ago. Easily one of the better mice I've ever used. Can't see myself replacing this mouse for a very, very long time. It offers practically everything the G5 offers (adjustible weights too!) with a more comfortawble feel and a curvier body. Curves = good...

    FSB/RAM Dividers?

    Hey all, Can someone tell me what the point of FSB/RAM dividers are? I already understand what they do in allowing your FSB and RAM to run at different speeds, but what is the point of doing that? Wouldn't running the RAM faster than the FSB be bottlenecked by the slower FSB anyway?
