Re: First quiet plus overclocked system. Need advice.
Although, you can save money by buying an e6300 ($180), the Gigabyte 965p-s3 ($110), 7900gs(or 8600 next month for $~150-200) and it'll still be a nice computer. That reminds me of another question I have. What does the extra $20 or so give you in the 965p-ds3 vs the 965p-s3 in practical terms? Her...

My question is since the Corsair PSU is right next to the CPU, doesn't it make it hotter, therefore making it noisier? If you say your CPU temps are ~50c, isn't the PSU intaking 50c air? I'm just confused since I read the article on the Corsair PSUs and the ambient temps are much lower than 50c. And...

Pictures say a thousand words, I guess. First: I have both monitors on. Sceptre on DVI and Dell on VGA. Sceptre is primary, Dell secondary. I have ATI catalyst window on the Sceptre and Display properties on the Dell. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y114/bakalee/dualproblem1.jpg Second: I turn off ...

Well, I have already tried switching the primary and secondary around so that my 22in is secondary and 17in is primary but it'll still switch the monitors and resolutions around when I turn off the sceptre. Turning off the Dell doesn't do anything, so I think it has something to do with my computer ...

Yes, I have Ultramon, and it doesn't help. I also have ATI catalyst fully installed and updated to the latest patch. This isnt my first time using dual monitors either. I used to have a 17in CRT that i used a VGA-to-DVI adaptor and it worked fine with my 17in LCD. I could turn both off and back on a...

Dual monitor problem
Hi all. I recently purchased a Sceptre 22in monitor and tried to have dual monitors with my Dell 17 in as the secondary. It works fine when I connect them, however, whenever I turn off my Sceptre monitor, the computer switches the Sceptre to secondary and my Dell to the primary, also messing up the ...
