Damn, that's a bummer. I guess I'll have to figure it out,

So as I am aware, I can download a program (DS4Tool?) and get a bluetooth usb adapter and then I am able to use my PS4 controller on my PC and not have to use a crappy XB360 controller anymore. My question is, if I have a PS4 (which is sitting right next to my PC) will I have to turn the PS4 off every time I want to use it on my PC? In other words, how do I connect to the PC without turning the PS4 on? I feel like that it's not doable? Is it worth it to just spend the $35 on a new PS4 controller, I mean, that's a good deal anyway.

but I am stuck with a 1155 MoBo so I am thinking of going with this processor right here. http://www.microcenter.com/product/388575/Core_i7_3770K_35GHz_Socket_LGA_1155_Boxed_Processor#

it's the difference between $250 for a new mobo/processor and it's not that much weaker than the 1150 socket 4th generation i7. To me, this is a good deal but there's only 3 left in stock for in-stor pick up. What do you guys think? I don't need to upgrade but I do have extra cash and wouldn't mind a better processor.

Do you think I should pick this up or wait till my MobO or processor !@#$s out and just do a full mobo/processor upgrade. Either way it'll last for years... here's my system specs.

Yes, I just game. I'm just power hungry. I'm upgrading something, just don't know what yet (besides ram, that's a given.)

So I have mainly been listening to 1990's New York hip-hop for around 15 years now. It's very seldom that I venture out of my musical comfort zone. I venture towards like "hair-band" type music when I do listen to other things, as well as things like reggae, jazz etc. But pretty recently I came into this new genre that I found I enjoy a lot, it's called "Deep house" but the problem is that I like a very specific sound within the genre that I can't seem to find more of. Other electronic-type music kind of irritates me, with the exception of some regular house. So I have found these few songs that I really like but can't seem to find much else that has the same general sound. Does anyone, or can anyone, help me find more that sound like these?

Also, why not start a thread where we can all share our favorite songs! Lets expand our musical boundaries. Here's my favorite song:

@joseph_mach: It's not too bad, I've seen it hit 60mb/s down before but up has pretty much been the same (haven't checked in a while). I'm one room away from my router but this can't be the problem cuz my internet connection is always at full/excellent. I believe it's an N router or G not sure maybe even NG. I ran the command prompts for both and got nothing over 50 on the ping for the most part (just some outliers I saw up to 85ms) and all the TTL were at 53 consistently. When I did the tracert it actually disconnected me. It said failed then I lost connection. The second time I ran it, it said request timed out with like 2 asterisks then a few lines down I had a line that had 1100 ms and 360ms (I put a picture). I use a wireless card installed directly to the MoBo so I'd rather not mess around with that.

Well, wireless connection problems...

So randomly, (or not so...) I'll be playing WoW or something or, sometimes even just browsing the net when out of no where my wireless network connection just completely drops (gives me that little star over the connection bars on windows 7). All i have to do is click on troubleshoot problems and it resets my wireless network adapter and I have internet again. It mainly happens at night. I haven't a clue on what the problem is. I'm not sure if it's with the router or with my PC (I'm leaning towards my pc). It doesn't lag prior to this happening it just completely cuts off and after troubleshooting (which is about 10-15 seconds) it comes back. It's a netgear router. Anyone have any insight on this problem? The reason I'm not convinced it's my PC is because when I have my brothers or friends at the house, theirs drops sometimes as well (at the same time as mine). ISP said they see nothing wrong on their end either but I may have them come out to my house this weekend. Here's system specs for good measure:

@JigglyWiggly_: I already said I plan on getting the power supply replaced in a short amount of time.

@nicecall: Okay thank you for the reassurance. Although I wasn't worried so much about the wattage, I was more worried about the amp rails being compatible with the card.
