Thanks a ton for all of the info, The BIOS on my current computer (As its HP) doesn't allow me to overclock the CPU. Upgrading the mobo would allow this or what?

why are you upgrading your case? i would suggest you upgrade your cpu first.

I edited the bottom, I really don't see a reason to upgrade the CPU first as I haven't had any issues with it.

My MAJOR problem right now is cooling for my overclocking.

Hey guys, I was looking to upgrade my computer and had a few questions. I am currently using an HP computer with everything 'stock' except the gfx (9800GT) and the PSU (Thermaltake 550w)-- Q6600 Processor, 4gb RAM, Vista x64

I have no issues running most games, I overclock the video card a bit.... I was going to upgrade and buy a totally new computer (case, mobo, cpu, ram, etc) but decided that I am prolly fine for a while with what I have.

I was now thinking it would be better to slowly upgrade, maybe getting a new part every few months. My first 'part' that I would get would be a case. I would be getting the Coolermaster HAF 932 (Might as well get the best!)

-How hard is it to move EVERYTHING in my computer currently to the new case?(Keep in mind I know generally most of the parts.. BUT I have only installed a graphics card and wireless card before.. Everything else is completely new.. I paid someone to put in the PSU I currently have)

-I noticed the coolermaster has quite a few more fans... That would mean more wires. Do I have to worry about needing adapters, splitters or anything like that or would I be set with what I have?

-My motherboard is an Asus Ipibl... I noticed the case says "Fits XXX motherboards". Would I have any issues with my motherboard not fitting correctly?

**Would I even be better off slowly upgrading to the parts I would have gotten rather than getting them all at once in about 6-8 months?**

Thats all I can really think about now, I might post a few questions later.

Thanks!

Edit: Going with the case first because it would allow better cooling for what I have currently, Possibly allowing me to overclock further but mainly not making me cringe when I see my gfx temp go up to 85c

Hey guys.. a little history - I've been playing WoW since 2006 (my first MMO). I quit a few months ago and the whole time I had been playing WoW I would quit for a month or two to try other games (WAR, AOC, LOTRO, EVE, and City of Heroes)

The only game I've really liked has been EVE online, I love the PvP system, I love the whole politics thing.... Theres one HUGE flaw with it. Its SLOW!

So, I've been looking at trying Darkfall. Normally (with other games) i would see it and watch a few reviews for a couple of days and wouldn't mind dropping $20-$30 to try it... I can't do that with Darkfall as its still considered "new".

What can you guys (who have played it) tell me about it? How is the community, is it hard to get into, how badly does it suck to get killed (I know you lose stuff but I'm not 100% sure how much), etc, etc etc.... Is the game even good enough to reccommend?

Thanks :)

I need some help... I am using a multi monitor display...

Everything is fine on it, I am using Display Fusion to extend my taskbar and handle my icons.. ONE PROBLEM with it though.

I will move my normal vista taskbar without the use of programs from my right screen (Primary) to my left screen (Secondary). Once thats done I lock it in place and use my program to add another bar that just displays programs on the right (primary) monitor.

I also move my desktop shortcuts to the left side.. I mainly use my right monitor for 80% of my browsing, video watching, gaming, etc.

Everything is still fine... UNTIL I try to play my 360 on my primary monitor (The right one). When I switch over to the 360's signal everything still looks the same on the secondary monitor... When I switch back to desktop either when done or when needing two screens the ******* vista toolbar and shortcuts reset to the primary.

What. The. ****.

Can anyone help me?

TL;DR- Vista Toolbar and shortcuts keep resetting themselves when switching signals on one of my two monitors.

Hey guys... I need some help

I am looking to buy another game for my 360, do I get BF: BC even though I already preordered the second one (which comes out Dec. 31st... That is if it DOESN'T have a pushback)

OR

Do I get Call of Juarez 2?

OR

Do I save my money and wait / possibly preorder wolfenstein?

I would be buying for mostly multiplayer.

What do you all think of this game? It seems pretty fun (Both multiplayer and single). I heard that the Multiplayer is sort of like COD.

Worth buying for mostly multiplayer and some singleplayer when bored?

I have had Vistax64 and my Itouch forever... Never had a problem with it.

Not sure what the problems were. I had ONE issue with Itunes updating but it was something as simple as restoring the Ipod and then resyncing it with the same library.
