There isn't a $200 difference between varying manufacturers (unless you're talking about reference flagship cards vs full blown custom flagships). That would just be retarded. | ||

How do I get the mouse scroll wheel to register clicks as fast as I scroll the wheel? Not only does it not work well, but it makes mouse unuable for a period of time. | ||

Thanks for the help! You have a 2500k and you aren't planning on overclocking. You also have a p67 or z68 chipset, both of which you should only get if you're planning on overclocking. Is there a specific reason you aren't? also, 560w is plenty for a non-sli system. 450w would even be plenty for that system. edit: what I really mean to say is, your psu should be good enough until it fails many years down the line. 560w is more than enough for any non-sli system, unless you have like 10 hardrives or something. | ||

Don't bother with PSU calculators. If you can understand Watts = Voltage * Amperagethen calculators are lost on you since you can do so much better.

Good luck wrestling with optimus. SC2 doesnt get along with it very well and our forums are crawling with optimus user complaints. + Show Spoiler + Im gonna use code flags more often lol. | ||

Sometimes I wish forums had TeX support lol, though the code tags do look fancy and do useful things like give you monospace font. | ||

Honestly I didnt know code tags worked until I popped it in just now since the BBC link above the reply box doesnt make mention of it. Is there a place where I can view the complete list of enabled BBC on TL? | ||

This is most of it: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/smilies.php I think the main stuff not on there is the [code] tags along with the [big] and [small] tags. | ||

I can move my desktop but I want to be sure of what I`m doing before I take it down the stairs. Is it as simple as plugging the hdmi from my desktop to my TV. I have done google searches nothing really definitive. Depends on the TV, most just have an input selection menu on which you need to select HDMI. Once it's hooked up in and the TV is on, your PC should be able to see the TV as a secondary display monitor. But the best advice I can give you: test it ahead of time. | ||

One is specified to run at the higher rate of 1600 MHz instead of 1333 MHz. All else equal, that means you can get more data to and from RAM per second, and get it faster, from the 1600 MHz RAM if your motherboard allows you to actually run it at 1600 MHz (which is not all systems). In practice, on modern systems (unless you're using integrated graphics), the performance difference in real applications is like 0-2%, usually closer to 0%. So 1600 MHz is better, but generally just get whichever is cheaper since it doesn't really matter. | ||

The number is the maximum clockspeed at which the module is rated to run. So in theory, 1600 MHz is faster. But that's not the whole story. Pretty much all modern processors have a memory-controller that's rated for 1333 MHz, so running at 1600 MHz to make use of the faster memory would be overclocking it and there are no garantuees for it to work (though I never heard that it didn't). More important: The speed of your memory has a very small effect on the performance of the computer. For gaming, you gain 1 or 2% performance by using 1600 MHz RAM instead of 1333 MHz. Note that RAM can always run at speeds lower than the maximum rated speed. So if you have 1600 MHz RAM, you can operate it at 1333 MHz just fine. In fact, most motherboards will automatically do this unless you tell em otherwise (BIOS settings). TLDR: Get the 1333 MHz RAM and save money. edit: Damn it Myrmidon! | ||

I think i lucked out big time when I bought 1.35V 1600 RAM for like $10 bucks more than your typical 1333 RAM. | ||
