  1. Can I plug my WiFi/Bluetooth expansion card into my PCIe x16 slot? The reason is that my case has some funky covers for the PCI slots and one of them is removal with a thumb screw where as the other three either need to bent or broken off in order to put something in a slot. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
  2. Like play the Bluray movies I have purchased. I have good ole fashioned hard copies of Bluray movies...
  3. Also is there something that works in conjunction with Windows Media Center? Do they all work in conjunction with WMC?
  4. Just built a new HTPC and I picked up a BD optical drive (OEM). I knew going in that I would need software to enable BD playback. Now I'm looking for some help picking the best or most effective software to use for BD playback. I am interested in your opinions and experience so that I select one that I won't be disappointed with. The software isn't cheap so I don't want to waste my money. Thank you in advance!
  5. Probably not haha...however I am running an APU (A8-6600K) and it looks to be running a little hot for my taste and that Noctua will definitely cool it down
  6. Yea I was going to get that one but the clearance in my case is a little too close for comfort. I'm going to go with the Noctua NH-D9L
  7. stock for now. i just built this PC...it's just a HTPC and I wasn't sure how the stock cooler would go for that. I plan on getting an aftermarket cooler in the future, but I wanted something to compare to.
  8. ok phew...i was under the impression temps over like 65C were no good...
  9. Yea but are those temps too hot? should i be concerned with temps that one on the cpu cores?

  11. It's saying I can't use image extension in this community...??
  12. Which number is telling me what I need to know and should I be concerned?
  13. Looks mint! However, I think you'll find that window will scratch easily.
  14. How do the wireless controllers communicate with the Xbox360 or with a PC in general? Do they use Bluetooth or a RF or something? I ask because my PC has a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth expansion card and I'm wondering if a Xbox controller would work as well.
  15. Also remember to follow your thread. Welcome to the forums! Good luck with your build.
  16. Please add something to that build so it changes the price on that build. That total price just screams bad luck lol. Best of luck with your first build!
  17. Does GPU-Z work with the iGPU in my APU. I don't have a dedicated graphics card.
  18. Yea I'm going to use Arctic Silver 5 when I switch over to aftermarket.
  19. How would I check the air flow. My temp was hovering around 50C with the side panel on and with it off.
  20. This is most likely a stretch but will my temps be affected by the thermal paste being brand new? Also, it's the pre-applied thermal paste on the stock cooler.
  21. Welcome... For gaming definitely Intel. Surprisingly you can get a lot of bang for your buck on that side. Good luck with your build!
