    How could I fix this humming/vibration noise from my PC?

    So my PC has this humming noise that is driving me crazy. I don't really know what's causing it but I've isolated it to somewhere on the front my PC. I've tried without both of the front intake fans in and it made no difference. It was really noticeable when I have the side on and the front...

    Something weird with google.

    So for the past 3 weeks or so, something odd has been happening with google for me. Doesn't matter what browser I use, if I try to go to google or do a search through firefoxes built in google search, it takes forever to load. After 30 seconds or so it'll finally go through. Once I'm on google...

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    Alright so I got the Denon. It's awesome. It was simple to set up too. A lot nicer having less cords going around. Ssddx, thanks a million for helping with all this. I tend to stress over things before buying, so I appreciate you taking the time and having the patience to work through it all...

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    Thanks for clearing up the HDMI connection confusion I had. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Denon one I was looking at has the HDMI standby pass through. I want that feature. I think I'll get one today. I'll let ya know how it goes.

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    Think i've run into an issue: my Nvidia gtx 980 only has one HDMI port. It has 1 HDMI, 1 DVI and 3 Display ports. From what I understand I need it to have 2 HDMI ports: one to go from PC to Receiever and one to go from PC to TV?

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    I'm still open to getting a new receiver. I can't seem to find anywhere that just sells a receiver though. Is there any brand any particular I should look for? I'm not really wanting to spend $300+ for it. If it were around 1-200 I'd be ok. Sound clarity isn't really something I notice all...

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    So before I got this Kenwood Home theater kit I had a really old set of Logitech 5.1 speakers. I found them and plugged them in to the PC through the motherboard at the back. Done some tests in a game and the difference is huge. It was proper 5.1 just like I'm used to when playing on consoles...

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    The DX doesn't have an optical slot. THe Creative Z one looks like it would work, but its pretty expensive. What about this set? It has an optical. I thought I could go into the PC via the analogue connections (with converters as it says in that review later on) and then Optical into my...

    How do I get proper 5.1 with my setup?

    That manual is for a newer version of my system, but my one does have DTS written on the front. Yeah, it does seem like its trying to fake the 5.1 I've noticed some sounds will only come out the rear speakers, like background ambience, but overall, the experience is nothing like in games...
