    LCD Monitor Flicker

    Evening Gents, Yesterday I received a Samsung 226BW. Great in every aspect except 1. I have a constant flicker which is giving me a slight head ache. I've got a brand new machine and running an 8800 GTS, which only has DVI out ports. I previously had an LG 1720B which I used on this machine...

    Overclocking E6700...

    I only had one problem with the 900. The PSU is at the bottom of the case due to the giant fan at the top. Which resulted in the 8 pin cpu power cable for my modular OCZ EvoStream PSU been too short by an inch. Nothing a £5 psu extension wouldn't fix but still ARGHH!!!
