LET'S MAKE THIS WORK PEOPLE!
Okay, now as anyone could see there are HUNDREDS of tech threads floating around in CD - ranging from questions about graphics hardware, to questions about pricier graphics hardware and other tech such as monitors, hard drives and Processors to announcement threads of new technology and more. (I accede - I'm not being very eloquent here)
Any questions you have, tech news or ANYTHING related to buying/selling/information/announcements of new hardware should go here.
For example, if you come to the forums to ask "What is the better graphics hardware" or "What sort of RAM should I put in my PC?" then it should go here - I'm a little hazy, I know - but please keep all those graphics card and tech questions to one thread! Please!
So here's the summary, all:
- Announcements and queries on new or unreleased tech
- Benchmarks and results of hardware/discussion
- Questions on what sort of hardware you need/want for your machine
- Questions about existing tech and/or function
- Pricing and recommendations
Should be kept to THIS THREAD.
Oh and PLEASE, if you want us to "Build" you a PC, please indicate the following:
1.) your budget in your country's currency
2.) what country you reside if not listed in your avatar area
3.) pre-assembled PC? ...or can you build your own?
4.) what is needed other than the PC tower? Monitor, speakers, mouse, keyboard, Windows OS disc? All these can jack up the price.
5.) product preferences, preferred seller, and intended aim
but please, no "I want teh superererest Peecee evar1!!!!11!1", because really, only Bill Gates has that much moolah.
And, speaking of building your own PC, two sets of good how-to videos from Newegg:

Thanks to SpankyTheElf for finding these additional ones:

This has been A-okayed by CCNA for all who were wondering - it's up to you to stop filling CD with the same topics again and again that ask what the most powerful card in existence is so you can (not) buy it.
If you feel you have a question or can answer one - please feel free to do so.
Thanks all.
Adding more links shortly, thank you for your patience.
(Threads 1-85 have been all pruned, may they rest in peace)

Do I also have to put a big glowing neon sign to this in my signature? THERE ARE TOO MANY TECH THREADS - THIS IS NOT A FORUM FOR YOUR TECH WOES!
But we will gladly help you anyway.
