Fortunately I was able to enable SLI with my 8800gt's and it works wonderfully in games. The problem is that to get SLI to work I had to swap around the two video cards and place my single slot cooler card in the top slot and the double slot card in the bottom slot which means I can no longer...

After a lot of struggling I found out that my D - Link (DEMENTED LINK) WDA-1320 wifi adapter was the component causing me to get the BSOD multiple times, it caused major problems. I'm not happy with D Links decision to discontinue support for the product (no windows 7 drivers at all). Does...

Hey all. Recently upgraded my PC, specs in sig. Added another 8800GT with hopes of running SLI. My new mobo didn't come with a bridge, so I am waiting for one to be delivered by mail. In the meantime, I installed the Windows 7 64 bit drivers, and the Nvidia control panel gave me the option...

I would've taken your advice but I needed SLI...at any rate I ordered an MSI NF750-G55. Should work well with the new AMD Athlon II x4 620. Thanks for your recommendation anyway. Also got a nice deal on it + the processor only $109 each. Couldn't pass it up.

I looked at a bunch of the Intel quads, was gonna get a q8200 but then I found a nice deal on an AMD Athlon II X4 620. It was by far cheaper than all the other quads and looks to offer decent performance.

http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3573170&CatId=3495 Couple questions... Is there anything better at this price point? (SLI is necessary for me) Will the 750i run at full SLI x16 on both cards? (I've heard conflicting information) I know there...

My sig processor is showing its age...I'm gonna be upgrading very soon, in fact as soon as possible. I'll be buying a new motherboard too, as well as RAM, but since this is the CPU forum I'll ask the gurus: Best bang for the buck for gaming? I need something for under $200 CDN. Preferably...

Hi everyone. I haven't posted here in a while but am excited to be back! I recently bought an entry level HP laptop, it's pretty decent and I am happy with it but I need longer battery life. HP wants $200 for a high capacity 12 cell battery and I don't want to pay $200 so that is not an...

The LCD is one of the differences, and the only other I can see is that the DIR-655 only has a 2.4ghz wireless band. The DGL-4500 has 2.4 and 5.0 ghz so in situations where there is interference on the 2.4ghz band (microwaves, telephones, etc.) you could switch to 5.0ghz. To be honest, the LCD...

Sweet. Thanks for letting me know.

That looks like a good router. The one I mentioned is $60 less, but the one you linked looks like it's ready to handle anything. I like the fact that they have 3 antennas...that could be useful in your situation depending on where the router is set up. I'd go with either one TBH, but it looks...

Yeah the only problem is since it's the actual router itself that does the routing and handles the connections you'd still be limited to 10/100 even though it is a gig switch. So if you want a full gigabit wired LAN setup then you have to make sure that the router supports 10/100/1000. (To the...

Those switches look good but keep in mind the WRT54GS is only a 10/100 router so you won't get full 1000 throughput. Fill me in on the reason for the switch though....I'm not quite sure how a switch would prevent a connection drop :) Also, I don't believe that you can install DDWRT firmware...

Yes, since you have it laying around you may as well test it out to see if it satisfies your needs. DDWRT allows you to increase the power output of the antennas IIRC so if at default settings it doesn't give enough range then you can increase that slowly.

Regarding the antennas I think the Linksys router uses a different type or size of connector - because I have an SMC high range antenna that can connect to almost any piece of wireless equipment but it does NOT fit the connectors for the WRT54gs. Try out the 2 factory antennas first and see if...

I can vouch for the Linksys WRT54GS...ours is a version 7 model and works well in our 2 story home. Handles WPA2 encryption no problem, and a multitude of wifi clients (Computers, Ipod Touch, Archos media player etc.) Has good range and speed for the $ although if you need really good range you...

After ages of searching I think I found the device that will allow me to connect my Xbox 360 wirelessly to my router. Will the following device allow me to "bridge" my Xbox 360 to my network? I checked their website and they say the device can act in station mode "AP Client mode". Here is a...

Sweet, thanks for the links, I will certainly give those a try.

I assume it's a DSL router... I had a similar issue, my connection would drop maybe once or twice a day, and I had my Linksys WRT54GS router configured as PPPoE. (I would need to input the DSL username and password into the router to access the internet). I decided one day to just set the...

I have tried numerous voice morphing programs (free ones), but all of them have a cheesy UI and don't work well at all. Can anyone recommend a good voice morphing software (like to change my voice as I record through my mic) then please let me know. At this point I'd be willing to try...
