i was wondering the same thing, but i was curious about the combining of different video card versions (200 series with 400 series) in sli.

Do you have a microcenter near you? if you can get a ton of them in front of you then seeing the differences will really make your decision for you.

Other than that, i'd just pick a price range and browse newegg for the most/best reviews.. IMO the picture quality of LED screens isn't quite there yet, not to mention they typically have narrower viewing angles (for the money when compared to lcd)

True, but does that make it right?

I'm sure the citizens of nazi germany had the same response to their soldiers returning home from service. Just because you don't stand behind the reason why a soldier of your country was deployed, does not mean you should not stand behind the individual.

Can you guys explain why you chose this camera? I've been doing some reading and i'm torn between this and an Olympus XZ-1.

i'm putting my money on the controller. i tried installing an SSD last week and no matter the setup or bios settings, the damn windows install would get corrupted.. eventually i just gave up and returned the drive

that's an idea, i'll pull it tomorrow and do a visual inspection -- see if i notice anything suspect..

i fail to see why detailed specs about my system would help answer whether my issue could indeed be a faulty motherboard

I have an old Pinnacle HD USB card that ive been using with great success.. Using Windows 7 MCE to view / record my content.. Right now i know you could get one off ebay for like $20.

Also, im using the "leaf" antenna i got off amazon, but here's one on ebay

I also made an antenna with some aluminum foil and an old box that cost me nothing (i had the cable adapter already) and works almost as good (and is more directional)

MediaInfo is a pretty good program that integrates well into the OS

My system would over heat in about 20 seconds in a setup like this. Go Nvidia!

What? If you have people inside the damn thing repairing it they are damn near invincible unless the other team has their shit seriously together.. giving these things rockets would be incredibly stupid.

I just bought the Titanium (i listed it above) from bestbuy for $60.. I was using my on-board sound with my motherboard (realtek 889a) .. there is a definite improvement in the sound fidelity, both when i use my headphones (audio technica ATH-M50) and my computer speakers (Bose 2.1) .

Also, i was having problems with some games and driver conflicts. I had resolved most of hte problems, but would still get the occasional freezes. Switching to the creative card seemed to have fixed all of those.

If you do get one, make sure to boot into the bios and disable the on-board and uninstall the realtek drivers prior to installing the creative card!

true, but with android how do you tell what's going to sell well later? just by what everyone else is buying? nitro hd, spec wise, seems like a great phone.. would that have a good resale value? so damn hard to tell

appriti · 5 months

i did some looking at it looks like the a2 wont get ics, at least for a while.. that's weird, its' specs are similar to a few phones on that list.. i dont understand their reasoning on so much of this..

appriti · 5 months

i don't get why the sgsii is so popular, the specs for the nitro hd look so much better.. what am i missing?
