    Decent Modular PSU

    (referring to http://www.hardwareforums.com/showthread.php?t=8017) With the Coolermaster 732 case in mind, what power supply do you think I should get to avoid having to revert my fan like sabashuali had to? I read on what you lot seemed to think were good brands. As I plan to get a 3.0...

    Cooling Advice

    I'm getting a Coolermaster Praetorian 732 case and am leaving the 120mm fan on the front and the two 80mm ones on the back. However I need a decent CPU heatsink/fan and a lot of you seem to think Arctic Cooling are good, especially this one...

    changed my mind AGAIN. wow. this is IT this time. I mean it. Coolermaster Praetorian 732...in black. As is, no mods, with a spanking new PSU, Saitek eclipse keyboard and one of those 2000dpi razor led mice. :sun: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/coolermaster730black.jpg...

    newbie router question

    If I bought a router with phone line in socket, with ethernet out, would I just have to plug the phone line in, and have an ethernet cable between it and my NIC, and be online? I'm confused as some routers don't state the facts that you don't ALSO need a modem, and that the one device is all...

    For people who don't OC - Nvidia or ATI

    Is there such a simple answer to "which is better"? If not, which are better with AMD and which with Intel?

    yeah that's nice I can't decide between the Coolermaster and these: These probably look too stylish for my room!! http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/ArcticCooling_Silentium1.jpg http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/ArcticCooling_Silentium2.jpg :cool:

    Turning off STICKY KEYS

    Every time I play Joint Ops (although I can imagine the same thing happening on most games) I keep getting booted back to the desktop with a windows prompt asking me if I want to turn on sticky keys. Even though I am then able to either tick 'keep sticky keys' off or 'turn sticky keys on' there...

    A Newbie Guide To Intel/AMD Architecture...someone???

    Okay. What are the main pros and cons between Intel and AMD and why? What are the ranges of available processors to buy, how much they tend to cost and what the high end versions are, and if they're worth it? Different CPU sockets on a motherboard, ensuring CPU compatibility...

    Western Digital Raptor

    I was originally going to go for Seagate anyway, but WD caught my eye. Still I'd rather go with a brand named after a fish, rather than the eggs of one :O

    Western Digital Raptor

    I don't really crave storage, though. I've had a 60gb HD for the last three years! Speed is more important but if the Raptor ain't that great, I may as well not bother with it. So which is better for Quality, Longevity, Speed - WD or Seagate?

    Western Digital Raptor

    I'm thinking about getting one for the fast SATA speed. But I've only seen one that's tiny, less than 40 gig. This doesn't bother me much, as I'd have the OS and multiplayer games on that, and the rest on another drive. I take it you can have the slave HD through normal ATA? Does it...

    Burner Burnt Out???

    RMA? Sorry don't know that one! I presume repair, replace? My PSU is 350W. lol I'm a smoker, that's quite funny. My old Pioneer A104 must be able to handle its tar. 1 thousand dvd burns and less than ten coasters :cool: As it happens (bit of a funny story this) I'd previously...
