Guh.

How much longer can you wait? If you can save up more, getting a pair of some good studio monitors will last you a *looonnngggg time.*

Deltrus claims these are good speakers

CONFIRM/DENY!!! D:


I am looking for new speakers, obviously. NCIX suddenly doesn't carry the M-Audio AV40's since a couple days ago. ; ;

for the same price you can get KRK RP5 G2's

The KRK Rokit 5s are one for $180 CAD. =/ She has a budget of around $200. >_<

last i heard CAD and USD are about equal, and RP5's are $150 a piece, same as the Mackie

Costs are usually higher due to imports, if they are imported. Also there's 15% sales tax to consider.

I have to admit, this sounds like a really shitty service if they "fixed the issue" but failed to notice that, oh, it doesn't boot w/ 2+ sticks of RAM, lol. Did you check that there's no other configuration available? Like it might be just -a- dead RAM slot, which could theoretically be missed if they actually tried to boot the mobo after their 'fix'.

I tried ALL of my ram sticks, all booted up fine on 1, but when I put the second stick in, DRAM error.

Now they tried to blame me for not having a supported ram kit, can anybody link me a Sabertooth Z77 ram support list?

Fucking joke, I'll give the company a 0/5 on trustpilot once I'm done with them.

[gegalfo]

where did you buy it?

[inux94]

Computersalg.dk

Avoid it like nuts. I'm not touching it again.

Also apparently got a faulty Slim DVD writer from them, woo.

Is the computer to my dad, as a birthday present? Yes.
Is he coming in 2 days? Yes.
Does the RMA on Computersalg.dk take 4 days - 2 weeks? Fuck yes.

Why would she want studio monitors, though?

Ofcourse.
My luck.

The only HyperX kit out of the 14, isn't supported in x2 mode, my Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB isn't supported either cause of the 10-10-10 timings, and I was told there were little to no difference between 9-9-9 & 10-10-10.

[Drunkenvalley]

What the heck, motherboards actually give the slightest shit about this 'compatibility'? Usually these lists are guidelines, not law.

[Xuvial]

You know how hard you should rage?

Around 20x harder than me when I found out that my NZXT LED kit's PCI controller didn't even come close to fitting in any PCI slot because it was fucking terribly designed and my Sabertooth's capacitors/armor blocked it from going all the way in.
After 10 mins of raging at whoever the hell designed that retarded controller, I realized that my case (CM Sniper) has an 8th vertical PCI slot! So I put it there...pics later. Finally I can have case lighting that I can vary in brightness and toggle on/off without needing cheap LED fans.

[inux94]

Yeah my arc mini has a vertical PCI slot too. :P

I'm going to see if I can get a refund.. if I can't then I'll try to ebay it, if I'm not successfully ebaying it.. I don't know, never assembling one again >.>

I'm 100% sure my luck will fuck me over once again. Multiple times.

[Xuvial]

Aw and there I was feeling all special with my vertical pci slot


All this talk about vertical slots is arousing.

[Cyanotical]

Why would she want studio monitors, though?

higher quality and better sound when properly set up

Wait what are we comparing to studio monitors again?

Asera is looking into buying a pair. Ghazh asked why she'd want them. Cyanotical spoke the truth. :P
