    What PC should i buy?

    Depends how far in the future you're talking about and your definition of future proof. That'll be a decent gaming PC for a while I think... Not sure how long you'll be able to max out settings though.

    Building a "budget" PC... what do you guys think?

    I love the suggestion on the monitor... I guess having the 1200 resolution isn't really necessary. I chose intel because it's what I am familiar with. I've had intel for every build since the E6600 (i'm on my 3rd build since that). I have no real reason to go with Intel other than comfort...

    Quick! Need help!

    I feel kind of silly. I didn't realize I could just swap the fans out. So I bought a fan temporarily until I can get some awesome ones off Newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835213001 Two. :-)

    Quick! Need help!

    I did. The temp didn't change at all. And it runs so crazy cool as it is. I am more afraid of the fan noise and vibration now. Looking at the Coolermaster 812 and Frio Extreme.

    Quick! Need help!

    I was cleaning my case while the power was on... Doh! And I broke a fan blade to my heat sink! Now it makes a lot of noise and the case vibrates SLIGHTLY but very noticable. Put my finger on the case and you can feel the vibrations. Is this bad for the PC? Should I keep it off until I...

    SSD actual write speed

    A Crucal RealSSD C300. Does updating firmware do anything to the OS or programs? I have no idea if the SSD is setup as SATA or AHCI.

    Gtx 480

    Oh yea dude, this is a "budget" machine for my friend. My PC rocks! :-) He asked me to spec a machine out for him because I want someone to play with! He needs an upgrade. The GTX 480 is a pretty monster card for the price. Just not sure how demanding GW2 is!

    Gtx 480

    Still one of the best bang cards under $200? More like $180? Looking for a card to play Guild Wars 2, Starcraft 2 with pretty high settings if possible! Starcraft 2 I see doable, but Guild Wars 2 is pretty new. But it's a MMO so they are usually a bit easy to max out if I remember since...

    Gtx 690 sli

    What games would something like this even matter? I play BF3 on max at 2560x1440, flawlessly with a single GTX 680. What other new games out there are much more graphic demanding (or look better)? I never understood the physics part of a game...

    Official Screenshot Thread

    Max Payne follows suit of the previous 2. A little backing of Max Payne would help give you an idea of his character... but that's about it really. Max Payne 3 was an awesome game. I loved it. I played it for 360 and I pretty much didn't stop playing it until I beat it!

    GTX 680 under load temps

    eVGA. Precision X to put fan speeds at 70%. I now have the eVGA GTX 680 SC Signature. No idea what the signature means but I figured it would be cooler since I have the backplate on this bad boy.
