Hawk uses Twin Frozr III heatsink and is pre-overclocked by a good amount. And getting a 2GB variant of a GTX 560 Ti is stupid since you won't be running out of memory in the majority of games unless you are playing above 1080p or are using a texture pack. If you think you can actually make use of 2gb of video card memory, it's probably not a good idea to get a GTX 560 Ti...

I want to use the HDD inside this case : http://s2.static69.com/composant/images/produits/big/IOMEGA-34918.jpg tu mount a computer. Model :Iomega Prestige 34933
The HDD is supposed to be a 7200rpm SATA disc. Will I be able to remove the HDD and use it as a system disc? I know I may have to break the case, but that's no problem. Thanks for the answer.

Yes you should be able to. Most external casing has hidden screws under stickers so you probably want to check before breaking the case.

Guys, my keyboard is keeping my roommate up.....

Is there anything I can buy that would silence my keyboard?

Maybe this:
http://www.geekalerts.com/thanko-keyboard-silencer/
Lol, I would never use one but if it floats your boat.

Otherwise, depending on what keyboard you have, you could install rubber silencers to dampen the keypresses. You'd have to check for you keyboard though if it's possible. I'll see if I can find a link later.

I remember my uncle had some kind of covering over his keyboard that silenced it. What are those called?

Not sure what they are called sorry. This was what I was thinking of with rubber silencers:

They are for cherry switches.

PvT -- what is the ideal position to engage the Terran in? How should I setup my army and how can I attack Terran in a way that I am setting up the terrain for maximum effectiveness?

The other day I engaged when we were both wide open and Terran army wiped me out. Does Terran have teh advantage in this situatino?

I have a small but annoying problem with my wireless usb network card. (Linksys AE1000):
http://homestore.cisco.com/en-us/Adapters/Linksys-AE1000-Wirelessn-connector_stcVVproductId97826164VVcatId551966VVviewprod.htm

Each time I start the computer after it having been shut off completely it doesn't work and don't get any network connection. It doesn't work to unplug and plug it back in but if I disable it in the device manager and then activaty it again it works perfectly again. It's only after the computer have been shut off completely I've this problem. I can restart the computer, put it in sleep and so on without having this issue.

Does someone recognize this issue and can I do something about it? I'm mostly using sleep mode so it's not a huge issue but I'd like to know where the problem lie.

Depends. In SC2 it will bottleneck it at least, as it will in most CPU-bound or slightly GPU-bound games.

Why do you need to replace the HD 5770? That's still really really good and matches the processor much better.

Question: I'm looking to get a new processor, without having to swap out my mobo. It's an ASUS P5W DH Deluxe, with an Intel 975X chipset (LGA775).

Now, there are some decent Pentium Dual Cores for the LGA775, but on the Intel product description page for the E6700 I'm looking at, they don't list 975X as a compatible chipset. However the wiki article on Intel chipsets says:

"All Core 2 Duo chipsets support the Pentium Dual-Core and Celeron processors based on the Core architecture."

I know the E6700 uses the Core architecture, so will the 975X work, but just with some features unavailable, as it doesn't support Hardware Virtualization. It supports FSB speeds up to 1066, which is what the E6700 is listed to have.

I really don't understand chipsets very well, any help would be appreciated.

Why does this site say it's socket PLGA775

No, that's the core 2. I'm talking about this:

From what I can tell, PLGA775/LGA775 don't affect compatibility.

Mmhm, then I have no idea other than I think that that'd be a strange update assuming your current CPU is halfway decent.

It's in no way halfway decent. It's a Core 2 Duo E6300 (1.86 GHz).

The rest of my setup is fine, the CPU is really the bottleneck. I don't need anything as powerful as an i5, and I'd be happy if I could just spend the 70-80 euros on a Pentium Dual Core. But I really don't know what's needed for CPU compatibility other than socket and FSB.
