I'm not sure it matters, but I just want to be sure. I have an Asus VX238 monitor which has built in speakers and a headphone jack and is connected to my PC via HDMI. I also have an ASRock Z97 Extreme4 motherboard. Now I'm wondering, is there any real difference in sound quality or anything...

Anyone? Could really use more help

Well, bad news. At some point I uninstalled the software I think was included with IME, and the problem came right back. Every single problem but the windows search issue. I tried re-disabling IME which iirc reinstalled itself after I did that, tried system restore to right before I uninstalled...

You're kind of right, but it might not be as helpful as you think. Having V-Sync disabled will result in your laptop rendering as many frames as possible, and if you're rendering significantly more than your refresh rate, you're right in thinking that this significantly increases the chances...

uhhh bump anyone? I still have yet to figure out what's going on with this...

TL;DR: Laptop fan spins when turned off or in sleep mode at full blast all the time. Waking up from sleep mode turns off laptop. Windows installation also seems screwed. I have no idea what's going on...

Hi Guys, I have an Acer Aspire V7-582PG. It's a 15.6" laptop with a GT 750M that tends to heat up when gaming towards the middle-right of the keyboard and chassis, especially the area of the keyboard and chassis closest to the screen. It also has two (what I think are) exhaust vents on the...

I have a Lepai LP-2020A+ Amplifier -- a cheap little $20 or so amp -- that's been serving me well connected to my desktop speakers, but I want to get a remote power outlet switch so I can turn it off remotely so I can better use my PC as an HTPC when necessary. Will suddenly cutting the power to...

Thanks a lot for the help guys. It seems to have done the trick, though building up enough static still results in the amplifier cutting out, but it's still far better than it was before. Had to give the Best Answer to InvalidError, but both of you guys were a huge help. Thanks again!

I really am appreciating the help, guys, and holy crap, it seems to work! I just tried a temporary "ghetto" fix until I can get eyelet terminals, and it seems to work from a first run trial, but I'll have to test a bit more and under safer circumstances. My amp's whole chassis is metal, I'm...

Alright great, that sounds pretty feasible and my amlifier is connected to my PC via a standard 3.5mm auxiliary cable. What would be the best way to do that, do you think? I can pick up the eyelet terminals if necessary, and I assume they work by placing them in between a screw and the chassis...

Hey guys, so I've been away at school for most of the past few months up until now, and now that I just got back home I'm getting really tired and really worried about the amplifier not being grounded or whatever, so I want to take InvalidError's and Skylyne's advice and ground it using some 16...
