    Crazy "pixels" everywhere!

    Hey guys, I'm going to assume this is a graphics card problem, but basically randomly (mostly while browsing the web though, oddly enough) I get pixels EVERYWHERE. Sometimes minimizing/expanding makes them go away, I get them on all 3 of my screens from time to time. Tried updating drivers...

    "pixilating" on 1 of 3 screens?

    Not screenshotable (doesnt show up in the screenshot). Basically theres either a few (5-10) pixils flickering green. Or if I open a game, 20+ easily. I'll try switching inputs now. Edit: Problem seemed to go away once I switched inputs, i'll post again if it starts happening again.

    "pixilating" on 1 of 3 screens?

    Hey guys, I seem to be having a pixelating issue on my left monitor of my 3 monitors (using eyefnity setup) Normally the issue only seems to come if I have a game open (So far just tested Starcraft 2 and Alien Swarm). Doesnt particularly bother me with SC2, as it does with multi-screen games)...

    Post Your Desk

    Upon request i'll get better pictures, and not crappy cell phone pics. Yes, all 3 are wall mounted. Just got this desk a few days ago, crappy pic but the top, and keyboard tray are black-glass. Metal frame, with dark wood edges on the side. PS running DVI cables through walls sucks.

    How does this setup look? (First time WCer)

    I plan on going with the fesser colored tubes, and just disstilled water. As far as UV fans - I wont be using any. I'll be buying LED strips (UV) from here and wiring them up to a spare molex since they run off 12v. Currently have 2 4.7" orange ones in my base right now - Also, these things...

    How does this setup look? (First time WCer)

    Thanks, yeah after doing some reading, I think i'll just get a UV colored tube instead. Glows brighter and then you can just use plain old distilled water with some sort of algae prevention agent.

    How does this setup look? (First time WCer)

    Thanks! Mind posting some pics of your setup? I also have a 932 - Figured bay res was good...so it fits in bay! I'll check out some non-bay res's. Are box res's okay and just not bay res? Or should I be looking at tube only res's? I really wanna try and jam the res where my 5.25 drives go as I...

    How does this setup look? (First time WCer)

    Hey guys, Just built my new system - and i'd like to try watercooling for the first time. I havnt done too much shopping around, but I made a quick-list from Dazmod on the things *I think* seem okay. Please feel free to offer other retailers, as well as products in place of what I have. I think...

    Safe Temps? (i7 930)

    Fair enough, I may do that. Keep in mind those temps were from torture testing in prime95 - I'm unraring a 16gb file right now and my realttemps aren't even pushing past 60, which I think would be the most "stress" I would put my PC under except for gaming - I think i'll just keep an eye on my...

    Safe Temps? (i7 930)

    Well shoot, I got the store to mount my CPU/FAN for me, because thats one thing in PC building i've never done, and am somewhat iffy on doing - seems like a pretty hard thing to do and not mess it up. Guess the store didnt do it correct, great. If I get watercooling in a few weeks, will I be...

    Overclocking my i7 930?

    Sorry for the late reply, I just overclocked my 930 for the first time today. I just went the "easy way" of OCing it, for my first time. Basically just copied this guys settings, YouTube - Overclocking the Core i7 920 (HD) Bump CPU voltage to 1.37500 and BCLK to 180. Managed to acheive 3.96...

    Safe Temps? (i7 930)

    Hey guys, Just finished putting together this build yesterday, and decided i'd try overclocking for my first time. Read a few articles, and gave it a whirl. Seems to be doing okay thus far at 3.960, prime95 has been running for about 25 minutes but i'll be keeping it on for a few hours. My...

    Computer wont boot/cmos - New build

    Found the issue, and I get the distinct feeling i'm very lucky I didnt fry my motherboard. When I was putting in the placement screws the board sits on, I put one in everyhole without thinking. Turns out some of those are for micro atx boards. So when I put my mobo on top, some circuits were...

    Computer wont boot/cmos - New build

    Aha! Pulled mobo from case and placed on antistatic package it came in. Booted up! Now, I guess that means theres a short somewhere when its mounted - Any idea how to fix this? I put in all the mounting screws (the ones with screw holes in them), put mobo on them, then put the screws in. I...

    Computer wont boot/cmos - New build

    I have a Clear CMOS button on the backpanel - it DOES light up blue when the PSU is turned on. Will holding that down be sufficient? EDIT: So I used the Clear CMOS button, and still same thing when I tried to power it on again. Also removed the battery, and put it back in - Same thing. Any...

    Computer wont boot/cmos - New build

    Hey guys, Just got my components for my pc today and im putting it together, and I can't for the life of me get it to boot. When I push the power button,(This all happens in 1/2 second) A red LED flashes once (top right of mobo), I see my fans/cpu fan attempt to spin, the fan LED comes on...
