This was bought to upgrade an older PC because the 250GB started developing bad sectors. Got everything cloned over successfully and have tons of free space now. I always buy WD HDDs and caught a great sale price just after Black Friday in the process.

In brief, I love my Sony 7.2-Ch. Home Theater Receiver! It has so many ways to connect A/V devices that I have 1 or 2 still open for the future. Features galore including an FM Receiver, great remote control, and the sound quality is superb.

Did everything I needed it to do!

I tried HDMI to VGA adapters and DVI to VGA adapters, but they would not play nicely with my older 4-Port KVM that allows me to switch between 4 computers using one Keyboard, Video screen, and Mouse. Those VGA adapters would cause a Disconnect on my PC that would scramble the icons on my Desktop when I returned and reconnected to it. This DisplayPort to VGA adapter switches with the KVM just like it used to when I had a VGA Card in the PC that now has an EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti installed (there is no VGA Port on that Video Card). But I need that kind of KVM with PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse ability, and VGA cables, to be able to connect older PCs that I do repairs on.
Great little device that saved me lots of hassles, and possibly having to purchase a new KVM! Works great with my 1920x1080 resolution 24" Monitor.

The EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti hit the perfect spot for that upgrade you know you need, but at the price you want! With the latest NVIDIA Pascal architecture, the 4GB GTX 1050 Ti displays stunning visuals and great performance at 1080p HD.

I purchased this card for an older system (a Dell Precision T7400). My PC has a PCI Express 2.0 slot and it's labeled as being able to handle 75W (which is what this card requires). It also has a 1000W Power Supply. I did some research and found that a PCI Express 3.0 card will work in a 2.0 x16 slot, so I decided to try it, knowing that I could return it if necessary.
The card works very well in my PC. And it's nice not having to run an extra power cable to it. Windows did its thing and installed drivers for it, so I installed the NVIDIA Experience software to get the latest NVIDIA drivers for Windows 10. I selected Custom Install and checked the Clean Installation check box. Everything went smoothly. I'm using it now with an older 24" monitor that only has VGA and DVI inputs (I'm using DVI), so my next purchase will be a new HDMI 2.0b or 4K monitor, and then a 5.1 Surround Sound system for the PC (if I can find one).
Thanks Best Buy!
PS - If you count on using an integrated sound card that is "built in" to the motherboard, make sure that you look at your BIOS settings first. My integrated audio was set to Auto, so the BIOS let Video Card's sound system take over. My built-in sound was therefore turned Off, and was no longer available to Windows. I entered BIOS and changed it from Auto to On, and that restored my sound.

Excellent UPS, Excellent Price

I have been using APC UPS products for years now, and always recommend them to my customers. APC is the best. This APC Power Saving Back-UPS XS 1500 has plenty of Backup Time for most application needs, even computers and peripherals that may need plenty of Power.
With this said about peripherals, however, it should be mentioned that Printers should not be connected to the Battery-Powered Outlets of this kind of UPS, as they generally draw too much Power. You can always restart a Print job when Power is restored. You use a UPS of this type to prevent Power Fluctuations and Outages from killing Power to your PC/Mac that could damage it, and so you can finish your work, save it, and shut down properly, in the event of a Power Outage. APC makes UPS models that output Real Power (a true Sine Wave AC) for Printers and devices that need it. But it is Safe to connect everything else; your PC/Mac or Laptop/Notebook, Monitor, Speakers, Modem, Router, any Hubs/Switches, and NAS devices (Network-Attached Storage).
I highly recommend this unit, and I highly recommend Best Buy! Their sales staff is knowledgeable of the products they carry and can help you make your selections.

I have a Dell T7400 tower and have purchased a UltraSharp monitor and I need to know if this video card would be compatible with my desktop.
It worked in my T7400. There's a card bay alignment assembly that has to be taken out to remove or insert a card. I had to cut off two of the alignment tabs to get it back in, but that's not much of a problem. I cut them off even with the end of the tabs. Your PCI Express 2.0 x16 card slot can handle the video card and the 75W that this card requires, and your 1000W Power Supply will handle the rest of the system. My T7400 has 12GB RAM and two Intel Xeon X5482 3.2GHZ Quad Core CPUs, and everything runs perfectly with this card.
When I installed the card, Windows 10 installed its generic drivers, so I installed NVIDIA Experience (a free download) and had it get the latest NVIDIA drivers. During installation, I selected Custom Install and checked the Clean Installation check box. Everything went perfectly after that.
NOTE: If you want to use your built-in "integrated" sound card, you need to check your BIOS settings first. Mine was set to Auto, so the video card's sound system took over and the integrated sound was disabled by the BIOS. I entered BIOS using the F2 key at startup and changed it from Auto to On, and that resolved the problem.
