    Kapersky`s a joke

    Download Revo Uninstaller and use it's uninstall facility. The free version is fine. This program together with Malwarebytes and Avast! Home Edition is the only protection software I use.

    What in your opinion is the best OS ever?

    Windows 7 is at least as good as XP Pro.

    Best Motherboard for 1366 3 x SLI+

    Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R or the Asus P6X58D Premium. You don't need to spend any more money for anything else.

    Help, engineering computer

    I think to recommend components to you for this specific build would cost a lot more than $1000. How far can you stretch the budget?

    Hello, this will be my first ever pc build...

    Sure, in the case of the old AT set ups cause I wouldn't wanna accidentally come into contact with 110v/240v. But I stress that this isn't the case with the ATX set ups. Also the whole point of plugging the PSU in to the mains is to earth 'it' and the metal computer case in which it's...

    Hello, this will be my first ever pc build...

    Don't bother with the ground strap. Despite what others think/say just install the PSU into the case first. Then plug it into the mains and make contact with the case now and then. Because the case is now grounded it's doing the same thing as using the strap, or touching the metal kettle that's...

    which OS?

    Cause i've got all my audio app's to install together with lots of plug ins and virtual instruments and because I have other things to do in the day it would take about a week to complete. It'd be worth it though. :D

    which OS?

    That's what i'm running on my internet install. It is brilliant. I like it that much i'm going to install W7 on my studio set up but it's gonna take me a week.

    which OS?

    Takes up too much screen space.... ?????? *confused* The above is my actual desktop. All that's there is my Recycle Bin and my task bar is set to Autohide. Even with my taskbar showing I have plenty of space; i'm using the small taskbar set up. Here's the 3D Flip. I use it to...

    800 gaming budget

    Personally I reckon the GTX460 would beat the HD5830 at low/medium resolutions. With multi-monitor gaming the HD5830 takes over.

    Hi guys

    Yea it's pretty good money for the stock performance and the OC performance that you can achieve. The PSU is important, like the tyres on a performance car. 550W is enough for the set up i'm just a little unsure about the make. I like the Corsair's, the Silverstone's, Antec's, Be Quiet's and...

    Hi guys

    Now that there is a nice gaming rig. Quad core 8MB cache CPU that OC's like crazy and a great motherboard that's stable and will take the CPU to high OC's. Go for the 1GB GTX460 and a 64 bit version of W7. I'm not sure on the PSU, i'll let someone else comment on that, but everything else...

    Looking to spend $300-350

    At 1440x900 and above i'd look at the GTX460 or HD5870.

    Hi guys

    Go for the Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 instead of the Intel mobo, the Gigabyte motherboard is much better. Consider the i5 750 CPU instead of the 650; quad core and double the cache is well worth the extra $'s. Also try and spend a little bit more for the GTX460 graphics card otherwise go for a HD...

    What processor can be used instead of an intel pentium 4

    I reckon the OP is running the old Socket 478 Prescott (pre 2001). The best you could go for is the 3.4Ghz Prescott P4 or the 3.4Ghz Gallatin P4 EE. Both of these are well out of production and will only be available on the 2nd hand market. I reckon a fresh OS install and streamline would...

    which OS?

    I actually enjoy the stacking feature of W7 and the Flip3D thing too. It's a god send coming from XP Pro. What's important is that you can fully customize W7 so if there's a feature you don't like you can change it or disable it. Overall there's no point dropping the super slick W7 for...

    Low Sound

    What audio are you connecting too? Make sure the audio drivers are installed and that you connect the audio equipment to the correct sockets.

    Looking for a Photoshop Speed Upgrade

    True but they are very expensive and the right 7200RPM drive is a vast improvement on a 5400RPM drive.

    Looking for a Photoshop Speed Upgrade

    A decent 7200RPM 16MB/32MB cache hard drive will improve boot up/app' loading times tremendously. Some may recommend an SSD but I really don't think they are worth the extra second or two you'll gain over a decent platter hard drive. Your CPU's sweet and you got enough memory. One thing i'll...

    What in your opinion is the best OS ever?

    Well I would've said XP Pro 32 because it's what i've been using trouble free since the first time I used a computer. And I still use it in my dual boot setup. But i've been using W7 64 Ultimate for the last month, in my dual boot config, and I have to say that it is freaking amazing. Put...
