Thread: PC Tech Talk

  1. Default PC Tech Talk

    I thought it might be good to start a thread about everything PC.

    I've noticed lots of people having problems and questions on pc stuff lately and it might be a good idea to have one thread devoted to computer problems, builds, and new tech stuff that's coming out instead of someone making a new thread when someone has something they want to share.

    I saw this and thought it was funny by the way

  2. Thumbs up Good Idea Magalicious

    I have thought about creating this thread myself after seeing all the PC talk lately as well. I am glad you did it mag. I was also thinking about creating a thread that pertains to everyone listing what kind of rig they have. I would be curious to see what kind of systems people are running.

    Also I have a quick question for anyone reading this post: I have 2x2 gig corsair ddr3 1600 240-pin (pc3 12800) 1.65v timing 8-8-8-24 c latency 8 memory sticks and I have two open slots and I want to put another 4 gig in this machine, but I am curious if I can use another brand and if I do, what specifications need to be the same for it to run correctly. For instance if it is different timing and stuff would that create a problem? I have seen a few deals on new egg for memory but I am hesitant to buy it because I don't know what is compatible with what I already have....help please!!!

  3. Thumbs up

    Have a question. Are there any other there have big issues with there HP Laptops. Me and my gf have 1 each. And the have both been broken over 2 times. So i will ask if any other have same problem with a HP.

    And what brand should i pick for the next computer. (remember has to be a laptop)

    There been gaming setup thread been made but it gets buried easily

    My Rig is on pg. 11

    And as far as you question goes I assume your running dual channel memory. and you board has it separated by two colors(Memory Banks). Its best to keep the same memory in the banks and try to keep each bank at the same speeds 1600mhz for bank 0 and bank 1. But far as brands go it shouldnt matter. Im not sure about latency though but I wouldnt think it would effect it to much if the latency from bank 0 and 1 are diffent.
    you can read more on it hear

    lenovo thinkpad.

    i have a t500 and i love it. you can customise it a bit when you order it. i have vista 64bit, 4GB ram, and a discrete gfx. card (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650).

    runs css beautifully, same w/ oblivion, fallout3, masseffect...

Trees also stand aside due to my chainsaw blood.
