I have recently run into an issue with my sabertooth build. The optical drive is acting funny. I had an asus in there, it worked to install the x79 drivers and such for windows, but would randomly dismount the disk it had in it. This happened on both operating systems (windows and mavericks). I...

I know that these cards are well documented. I have done a fair bit of trouble shooting and searching of forums. The solutions for these cards work on newer chipsets, but the same solution does not produce a working card on the 775 socket. I have 4 different 775 based systems that I have...

Dell XPS18 portable AIO: HD4000 and Audio trouble I decided to give this a go. It is the one Bestbuy stocks: i3, centrino wireless, realtec audio, HD4000. I used unibeast method. I first had to launch the BIOS and enable legacy boot. Selected the USB and it booted right into the installer...

Hello I am currently looking at getting a monster GPU, for no particular reason. I can either get a brand new 780 for about $650, or a very gently used 690 for $625. considering compatibility and performance in both OSX and windows, which card should I purchase? Thanks

OK! I am getting set to purchase my 1155 mobo and cpu. I already have everything else. I am using a single xfx5870 gpu. Please any advice is useful to me. Should I go with the standard Asus P8P67 or the delux version? (an extra $77, and the only feature I would benefit from is the intel NIC)...

I am having a really tough time deciding on a case! I am building an LGA 1155 i7-2600k w/ 5870 build, so cooling and space are big factors. My pet peeve is dust in my case, so I really want dust filters on EVERY intake fan. (Why do so many case designers bother putting filters on one or two fans...

This is a noob question, but are all power supplies more or less the same as long as they use the modern atx motherboard connector? I am building an LGA 1155 computer, and this power supply is on sale for $39 with a promo on newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6817139019 Will...

Hello I am having trouble adding ubuntu to my system. I have osx and windows 7 working just fine. I added a third drive and put ubuntu on it, but it won't show up in the bootloader. It boots just fine if I select that drive from the boot priority list on start up. Also when I load into osx it...

I have the asus mobo mentioned in the subject. I am able to successfully start the install process with old iboot (1.6 maybe?) but when I try using the newest iBoot the grey load screen just sits there with the spinning grey wheel that I have come to hate so very much. Is this new version of...

This may be a dumb question, but I have searched through multiple forums, and I can't find a simple answer: Intel and retailers state that the LGA 1155 chips support DDR3 1333 memory. Does that mean that is the fastest memory you can use? Other CPU's are stated to support a certain speed of...

I'm not sure if this is the place to post this, let me know if I need to move this thread. I have ready some threads on bluetooth adapters, but they are all pretty expensive ($25 and up). I went to best buy and bought the rocketfish usb bluetooth adapter RF-FLBTAD. It was by far the cheapest @...
