LF Advise for GPU upgrade

Dirtz — Tue, 03 Jun 2014 14:37:15 +0800

Hi all,

This is a MSI warranty for my old GTX680 Twin Frozr III replacement.

They are willing to exchange my GTX680 OC with a GTX 770 Gaming for free. They do have another option which is upgrading to GTX780 Gaming but have to top up with RM700. Is it worth to pay the RM700 and go for GTX780 Gaming or just stick to the free GTX770 Gaming?

Gaming ITX Help!

Dirtz — Tue, 27 May 2014 14:20:18 +0800

Hello all,

I am thinking to build a gaming ITX. The reason behind it is I do travel times to times and I spend 1-2 weeks overseas sometimes. I miss my Diablo 3 a lot. HAhahaaha.....I don't want to spend too much on a gaming laptop.

Could any of you recommend me a ITX case which allow me to bring on cabin?

I am going for a 4th gen intel processor, ITX motherboard, 2x4G Ram, a old GTX680 GPU and a old 700W modular PSU. Those ram, GPU and PSU are from my old rig.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

Could you guys comment on Helix H236 Precision paired with a/d/s P440 2 (grey color)? I did bridge the amp into 2 channel for 120 RMS. But, I feel not so satisfy with the SQ. Kinda lack of mid bass...Something goes wrong?

ICE Setup Recommendation

Dirtz — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 10:52:24 +0800

Hi to all,

Have been away from ICE since 2008 b'cos working in China. Now I am kind of itchy cos kena poison again....hahaha....

Previous setup is as follows: (still at my old Sentra in Hometown)
HU: Eclipse CD7000
Amp: A/D/S 4 way (forgot the model), Orion HCCA 225 2way
2 way components: Helix H1
Sub: DLS Double voice coil (forgot model but f***ing heavy till my car looks like lowered down)

Anyway, I am not happy with the sound quality...May be is the setup....

Anyway...forget that as it is at Sabah now...and I am at KL...don't think buy a air ticket to go back to tear them down from my old car.

So I am thinking of starting to setup a new equipment....

What do you recommend for HU? Brand? I prefer to have smart phone connectivity so that I could save some cost on navigation.

I usually listen to chinese song (mostly sentimental) and some pop song like Rihana, and sometimes some 80's songs. Old man lah.....

Would you recommend danish made drives like Scanspeak, Dynaudio and Peerless for my type of listen? Any audioshop carry those speakers in Malaysia? Anyone has Morel Supremo? How is it? The previous speaker I have is a Helix H1. How does it compare to Morel, Dynaudio, Scanspeak? My budget is somewhere around RM2500-Rm3000.

I am also looking for AB Class amplifier, either 2 way or 4 way. I am more into SQ...Please recommend some good SQ woofer....BTW, I hate heavy woofer...it put too much weight on my car.

Thanks in advance.

Blue Screen: Stop 0x00000124

Dirtz — Tue, 03 Jul 2012 10:48:41 +0800

Hi Sifus,

I am experiencing blue screen on my window 7 Home Premium 64 bit after window sleep mode. The error message is STOP:0x00000124 (0x0000000000000000, 0xFFFFFA800FE5D028, 0x00000000BE200000, 0x000000000005110A)

It is a new rig. I run the system for one to two weeks before I installed a MSI GTX680 Twin Frozr II.
Is the Blue screen caused by the new installed GPU? GPU driver is from the CD come with the GPU.

Appreciate if you could give me some help to fix this problem. Blue screen only happen after recover from sleep mode.

Thanks in advance.
