For a language that is not case-sensitive, why would they emphasize using anything but lower case?

I would recommend keeping an eye on your temps when watching videos. You can do this with CPUID's HWMonitor. If you're getting high heat and then freezing, see what you can do about cooling your GPU better. If the heat levels remain ok and it still locks up, you may have a faulty video card...

Based on those specs it should be able to play anything today on high settings with good FPS.

Those links are to the same PC. What do you want to use the computer for? If it is just for web browsing, homework, and things of that nature that one would be fine. If you're planning on doing any gaming at all you should consider something with a dedicated graphics card.

I've had instances where I think I know exactly what is wrong based on what the person is telling me... Then I am wrong and it takes me several hours to figure out what the issue is!

Tough to say why this has been the case... I'm sure there are many reasons behind it.

Well it's not so much that I'm running especially taxing software. I use it for schoolwork, web browsing, learning to program in C# and with various Java editors. Probably the most taxing thing I use it for is gaming, but the overall feel of the computer is just not as snappy and responsive as...

Congrats on 3,500! And yes, the 9850 is my current system... It has tested my will power the past couple of years to not upgrade this system!

True. A+ Certification is good for somebody just getting into the IT field and can help to get entry level jobs. Obviously it's not designed to get you a high-paying managerial job anywhere, and anyone getting A+ certified that thinks they're gonna be good to go in the IT field is nuts! You...

I've been holding off on building waiting for these to come out. Hopefully it's worth the wait!

8 gb of ram with a dual core cpu and a 6870? Runaway from that build immediately... what site is that from? Are you open to some suggestions for building your own pc?

What have you been using for study materials? I have not yet attempted my A+ certification but plan to within the next 6 months. I know that the practice tests I have been using that came on cd-rom with the book I bought are a good test prep. They say if you are getting 90% correct answers or...
