I just got a new pc about 2 weeks ago. Lately I've noticed that when the pc comes out of sleep mode that the left speaker does not work but makes a pop sound every once in a while. A restart sovles the issue but it is annoying. Is this a known issue with Windows 7? Could it be the mobo? It has a Asus M4A77TD and is using the integrated sound. Thanks for any help.

Has great reviews. Sounds good to me but I haven't shopped for monitors in years. Thanks.

Any words of wisdom? Thinking of ordering today.

So after shopping all morning I have decided to not build a pc right now and to bump up the price a little if necessary to get a decent machine. The 4 in the link above seem to be comparable and not too far apart in price. If the $709 is fine then I will go with it. If you think I will see major performance gains out of the other ones the I will spend the extra $$$ and get one of them. Out of those 4 which would be my best bet? I plan on doing upgrades starting about a year from now to help keep it current. Thanks for all advice/opinions.

Just found this one for only $40 more after rebate. Is it a better deal?

I'm still on the fence about building a pc so I am looking at prebuilt systems that fit my budget as well. This seem like it would be a decent pc. I'm just trying to stay as close to $700 as possible. Can anyone tell me if the mobo has the AM3 socket? And also would it accept faster ram or do I need to worry about faster ram? I would plan on doing some upgrades next year. Just trying to keep the price down initially. Any opinions on this pc are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
