It all depends upon the Motherboard compatability, if your mother board supports Higher RAM and Display(Video) Card, you can definitely upgrade.
You will definitely feel the difference.

Question by visualmaximus: Is using Network Storage (storage drive connected directly to ethernet) faster in file transfers?
I want to transfer files from my laptop. I have an external that is connected usb to a main computer in home network. Want to add more externals and saw an external that can hook up directly to ethernet. Will that be faster? I know i can hook the usb external directly to my laptop but i would like a central location at home for externals.
Best answer:
Answer by Bamba
It should be faster yeah, Ethernet has higher data transfer rates than USB 2.0 so it should transfer files around the network quicker than you could copy them from a USB device.

Question by Peter S: Can I have 3 HDDs of the same size and run 2 of them in RAID 0 and use the 3rd as storage drive?
Just considering purchasing a new PC and wondering what HDD configuration would make most sense for me. Want maximum performance for games etc. plus one storage drive. Anything I need to be aware of? Thanks in advance.
Best answer:
Answer by GrahamRB
Most raid controllers will support this but you should check the configuration info on your motherboard. Most motherboards these days have two controllers, one for RAID and one which isn’t RAID enabled, so connecting two disks to the RAID enabled one and the other disk to the other controller should allow you to use the setup you described.

Question by Talat: Where can I buy parts for LCD monitors in Australia. I want to repair my LCD monitor?
I am interested in repairing LCD monitors. The thing is that once I have diagnosed the problem, where will I find the spare parts like backlight etc. I live in Sydney, Australia
Best answer:
Answer by stu_the_kilted_scot
Most manufacturers will not release parts to individuals, and if they did the price would be unreasonable.
If it’s under warranty use it, if not simply buy a new one

Question by fallenangel: What software/program do you use to take what you want to print to the printers?
I have designed a sample magazine with photo shop and the like now i would like to print it but apparently i have to have another kind of software in order to take it to the printers. The printers told me to find a real designer but i can not afford it. What software might that be? Any ideas?

Answer by Mehdi
Try saving it as a PDF or PS file.
PDF is used for print magazines (standard format with fixed page sizes), PS is PostScript, and most professional printers should be able to work with files like those.

Question by : I want to liquid cool, do I only need to liquid cool my video card and processor?
Do I really need to cool anything else than my video card and processor? I could get stuff for my memory but I think a silent fan cooling adapter would be plenty enough. I want to overclock my i7 920 and Sapphire 5870. Also would you recommend separate coolers for the card and processor? Like each have their own radiator and water block?\.
Best answer:
Answer by Sanguas
GPU and processor are the only things that may get hot enough to warrant liquid cooling. And the cpu only needs exotic cooling if you are overclocking it. If you aren’t it’s just a waste of money.
The “correct” way to cool is making the water flow from the hottest component to the least hottest component. Then of course back to the radiator to cool, through the reservoir, and back again. Just get a big radiator, like one that takes up two 80mm fan spaces. In most computer cases that are meant for gaming, there are spaces for two fans right next to each other. That’s the perfect spot for a double radiator. Never a need for multiple reservoirs. And obviously, the cpu and gpu each have their own waterblock that makes contact with that particular component. When you said “each have their own waterblock”, I think you meant reservoir, because everything that needs to be cooled needs a waterblock.
