    Cheapest compatible video card for QHD monitor

    Sadly, i don't have Displayport on my z77-ds3h, and the spec sheet clearly states that the maximum resolution available on the DVI and HDMI connectors is 1920x1200. :/ I have found some decent priced Geforce GT 740s: do the brand or quantity and type of memory matter regarding compatibility...

    I have the GA-Z77-DS3H, and i can confirm that it is easy and painless to install: everything works out of the box. If you want something that won't give you headaches during installation, this is the one to go.

    Recovering data from a defective drive

    Here's what happened: my girlfriend got this external usb 2.0 hard drive that stopped working. I opened the box and inside there was a WD Scorpio Blue 320gb 2.5" sata drive. I put it in another external box and it didn't work. I plugged it to my hackintosh and couldn't find it in the sata...

    Mini itx customac for Lightroom 4

    First post updated. I've read that non-K IB processors have the multiplier unlocked up to 41, yealding a 4100mhz clock; that would be more than enough for me. Will a Corsair CX 430 be enough to power this system up? I can't find the bluetooth adapter suggested in the custmac buyers' guide, so i...

    Mini itx customac for Lightroom 4

    I've been waiting for a new pc since march, i can't hold on much longer. :D When will they be released? Are they mini-ITX? I'd like a mini-itx machine because i'm fed up with enormous cases wasting space, i don't need all that room. I don't think i'll need more than 16gb of ram for now...

    Photo editing customac for Lightroom 4 I've patiently waited for IB cpus to be fully supported under mac os, it's time to upgrade! :D This machine will be built around lightroom 4: the other tasks (web browsing, some coding, some movie playing, occasional Libreoffice) don't require much...

    Re: Mac OS X 10.7.5 Developer Build Soon Is there any clue suggesting that os x 10.7.5 will support z77 and ivy bridge? Do we need 10.8 for that?

    already returned 1 cpu. still cant decide :(

    The WWDC is only a week away, and there's a high chance Apple will release some informations about Ivy Bridge macs. I'll make my choice after learning something more about the new platform.

    Long time user in need for upgrade

    IB cpus are faster than the corresponding SB models by a factor of around 3-5%, so it's no big deal. Since the z77 chip natively supports usb3, there's a chance that we'll see it working at full speed in mac os too. IB cpus tend to overheat a lot more than SB, and this makes overclockers...

    Long time user in need for upgrade

    We will probably know more about IB support after the Apple WWDC 2012 which will end on June 15th. Right now IB works with a custom patched kernel, so if you need a new machine and cannot wait for official IB support, i advice building a SB rig, which is fully supported without hassles. (I'm...
