    Best Buy To Sell Its Own Tablet

    I'm guessing a Chinese made Best Buy table will be just as good as a [insert brand name here] Chinese made tablet.

    $2M Dark Knight Inspired Home Theater

    Too many accoustical problems with all that design it's probably going to sound like crap even if the equipment is top notch.

    AMD Exec Departs Chip Maker for Rival NVIDIA

    Thought I read there was some sort of agreement between AMD and Nvidia, or a law or something that would prevent the two companies from poaching each others talent. Guess not! That's a huge loss for AMD they should steal Nvidias driver dev team to make up for it :D

    Eight Rotor RC Copter Used For Movies?

    This could definitely make for some interesting shots in future films where it's unsafe to bring a helicopter to close to the actors (or close enough for the rotors to blow stuff around). I can see this being great for car chase scenes where a car goes off the cliff and the camera could follow...

    Guys better gameplay on 680s over 7970s?

    Right now the absolute best choice is SLI GTX 670, you get the performance of 680's (or higher with overclocks) but cheaper and you get to enjoy the frame metering that Nvidia has which makes SLI feel so much smoother than Crossfire. Just came from 6990/6970 Tri-fire to SLI 680 and the...

    GTX 680: MSI TF III or Gigabyte Windforce

    Yea, the MSI was at least $40 more when I got mine. Although it almost seems like if you like the Windforce maybe you could pocket a lot of money and get SLI GTX 670 Windforce....that'd be at least $200 less for the pair and if they overclock anywhere near as well as the 680's you'd be in for a...

    GTX 680: MSI TF III or Gigabyte Windforce

    Wow those Twin Frozr overclocks stomp mine. Weird that your power limit isn't 132 it should be on all 680's. Have you tried Precision X to see if it gives the same bug? What are you using to test stability? BF3 and Heaven 3.0 maxed out seem to do well for finding stable overclocks. How does...

    GTX 680: MSI TF III or Gigabyte Windforce

    I have SLI Twin Frozr 680's and I was waiting for the Gigabyte Windforce models but these came in stock first. While I don't think you can go wrong with either model as both should be quiet and cool the Windforce models are built like cheap crap and the blue PCB is ugly (I had a 6970OC Windforce...

    The Unofficial GTX 690 Thread

    I love the idea of the 690 but where do you go from there? Your only upgrade patch is another 690 in which case you are running Quad SLI with only 2GB of ram usuable...that's a terrible idea. Nvidia needs to make the 690 SLI compatible with the 670/680 and it would be amazing in Tri-SLI!

    GeForce GTX 680 3-Way SLI & Radeon 7970 Tri-Fire Review @ [H]

    Skyrim only works in Crossfire, not Trifire, that's how its been for my Trifire 6990/6970 setup. I hope Kyle does a refresh of this article when the 4GB versions are out maybe by then AMD will have fixed the Eyefinity BSOD too so that would give them a bit more of a chance in this fight.

    best overclocked 7970 for use in a vertically oriented case (heat pipes)?

    Silverstone is far too cautious in their recommendation. I ran Tri-fire 6990+6970 in the FT02 and the 6970 had a Windforce cooler which dumps heat into the case and the 6990 dumped the heat from the 2nd gpu into the case but the 3 180mm fans at the bottom of the case are very powerful and blast...

    Sapphire HD 7970 OC Edition Video Card Review @ [H]

    While this is surely one of the best if not the best 7970 model (certainly the best temps) I don't think it is worth the $100 extra when you can overclock a GTX 680 and it will reach that performance or pass it and do it while consuming far less power. Nearly 500+watt OC'd is pretty scary for a...
