You're technically restoring bloatware provided that Dell included a bunch of random stuff with your computer.

'Least its better off than it was before. I'll end up uninstalling the stuff I don't need or want. Or try to, I know sometimes they make it hard to uninstall stuff. I'm also glad that I won't need to upgrade it since its just for school.

the speaker in my subwoofer is the size of a average car speaker

[KoopaScooper]

is it ok if i take the cover off of my sub woofer and use it
and if i put a car speaker in it will it give me more thump?

I don't think so. I don't even think that would work.
Try validating this with a google search or something?

nevermind, i understand the problem. my router has been getting connection from my switch. i forgot it was connected to it lol

now, how to figure out how to connect it to my modem..

[Pepsidude]

Welp, it worked perfectly. Though I was gonna be asking stuff on here for a while. Nevermind then.

So, is there a big difference between the 6670 and the 6750?

There is a difference. The 6750 is definitely better. But I don't know by how much :/

Ethan, would this CPU Heatsink and Fan be a good choice for a cheap way of OC a i7-2600k to about 4.2GHz? Also will it fit on this motherboard without disrupting anything like the ram?

yes it will be fine for overclocking to 4.2 (for the love of god, stability test it), and yes you will be fine with that motherboard that cooler actually looks really big. you might lose a RAM slot but don't quote me on that.

what case are you planning on using?









and on a completely irrelevant note, here is a picture of my computer (really needs a cleaning sometime soon...)



apologies for being horrible at focusing an iPhone camera lol

The NZXT Phantom Full Tower Black

[SpreadsPlague]

okay, you should have more than ample room for that cooler.

How the hell do you get your case so clutter-free? Mine has wires everywhere. :C
