Edit To reflect our current Awesome TV. We went with a Sony Bravia S5100 and it is great. We picked up a PS3 over the Weekend (Buffalo Xmas) and the Bravia Sync over HDMI is super dope. We can control the console with the TV Remote. 
As detailed below, we had to apply a firmware flash to address the brightness issue and from there, my only flaw was addressed. 
:-: Old Post
After busting out some New Super Mario Bros and Mario Kart Wii, Kat and I concluded that we could use an LCD TV in the living room. Our current 32" CRT does not work so hot for Split screen play, and is just hard to see game stuff, from about 10 ft away, where the chairs are. This will also get some action, as I figure I'll be the player, while Kat embraces some FFXIII Cutscenes.
I did some hunting, and Wmart stocks the Toshiba 46XV640U LCDs. 46" fits in a reasonable ~$900 Price range, and has some decent specs. I know J0k has had good luck with his huge ass Samsung, but after the crap that happened with Kat's PC LCD, I am weary on Samsung displays.
Renamed topic as we got a TV last night. Pic attached.  |

I gave a read to the OCAU article on Clarkdale CPUs. I'll keep it mad simple in saying they are of the i5/i7 grade of CPUs, with Graphics Processors on the CPU.
Game wise, you'd be likely to get a dedicated card, but for a budget rig or HTPC config, this might be your jam. Many more reviews in this thread. I'll add any more observations I gather when I read more of these. |

Posted On: 29 December 2009 - 02:44 PM | HDD Recovery
Hey everyone, Merry late Christmas, Happy early New Years  . I gots a problem. I got an adapter for christmas that converts a sata or ide drive to usb to try to recover some stuff off my old crashed hdd. When I connect the hd windows detects it as a usb mass storage device, however I cant access it at all. I checked around for software to help but Im kinda searching blind and Im pretty sure windows is lost on the crashed hdd, so Im not sure if thats a big problem or not. Any input would be appreciated. You guys are the smartest computer people I know so that's why I always ask here first. I feel like I should start making donations  Anyways, have fun bringing in the new year. Cheers.  |
