Bump?

I'm just asking this in passing thought: Wha, oh wonderful Tech-Forums community, would be a decent/well-priced laptop with the following attributes: SSD (good-ish storage) 14ish inch screen sleek and portable good battery life decent-ish ram (2-4g) independent graphics card (doesn't have to be...

Sorry that it took me so long to reply!! School has been crazy. So... this method will maintain drivers? I really don't care much about the rest of what is on my HDD... Wouldn't this method just make a clone of my HDD? Keeping everything but the bare essentials (or the ones that i want anyways).

Hello everyone! I was curious about how i would go about transferring or installing an OS (such as windows 7 or 8) to my new SSD and maintaining the current drivers I have on the HDD-- I recently moved and I don't seem to remember where I put those darn pesky CDs!! I know without drivers it can...

Thanks!! I didn't have any editx2-Sata3 cables** come with my SSD ... :c now I can't find my special, beloved, and essential cord-box *cry softly to self* Also... I'm sure this wouldn't hurt the SSD... But I need to ask just in case. Is it at all bad for it to have it in my case upside down? It...

That does sound cool... I can miss one of my front USB ports ... ;3 ... Now I'm looking for the SATA connection with my psu O__O I'm sure I have a few but... the hunt is on!! --Edit--x2 I have to rewire this beast >.< Such a pain but soo worth it!! I'll take pictures once I get it running...

Is the corsair link something that I would seriously need?

Hello community!! I was wondering a few things. Firstly I'm using two noctua fans instead of the stock H100i fans -- would I still need to use the Y-cable that connects to the corsair block and into the fans? Couldn't I just simply go from the noctua fans into the power supply, or would that...

I noticed that some are of different specs and that's why I asked ^^ Like for instance this one Newegg.com - EVGA 03G-P4-2888-KR GeForce GTX 780 Ti Dual Classified w/ EVGA ACX Cooler 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card VS Newegg.com - EVGA 03G-P4-2884-KR GeForce GTX 780...

I didn't see a sticky -- but i was wondering what exactly constitutes a good pc gpu. Is there similar build structure to sandybridge etc? If so what are generally considered the faster types of structure? What graphics cards would you as members of the community suggest? I have an 1800 dollar...

So if I go with the h100i what risks do I run of leakage? It's a closed looped system right? Does it require upkeep like other forms of liquid cooling? I would still need case fans though right? I think I have a place for a radiator at the top or back of my tower... It seems exciting!! What...

I think I'll upgrade the other stock case fans also. I have one or two huge fans that I may replace with two 120's. My other pressing question is would there be any need for worry with conflicts in the MOBO and the evga 780 ti cards? Also would it be advisable to add more thermal paste? It's...

In addition to the above questions this link looks like the heat sink I have in my computer right now... Would I want to setup 2 noctua 120mm fans in a push pull configuration on either side of the heat sink? Noctua NH-U12P SE2 120mm SSO CPU Cooler - Newegg.com

Would this cause any conflict with my MOBO? Newegg.com - EVGA 03G-P4-2884-KR GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support w/EVGA ACX Cooler Video Card Also, if I got another 2 gigs of ram, would a new version cause any conflict? What types or brands of fans do...

Thanks for clearing that up! I have been worried that since my CPU fan died ( which I didn't really need until recently since the heat sink was so huge ) that I may have had some heat issues. When playing some games the real temp software showed some heart stopping temperatures in the 90's...
