    ViewSonic VP2770: 2560x1440 Semi-Glossy PLS

    Finally got around to getting one of these, and I'm incredibly satisfied. The antiglare is PERFECT. Screen is sharp and clear, not a hint of grit or rainbow. Also, there isn't a single bad pixel. Seems like Viewsonic actually knows how to QC their products. There is a little bit of glow at the...

    ViewSonic VP2770: 2560x1440 Semi-Glossy PLS

    So if I'm reading that right, PLS panels have an advantage when it comes to the clarity of the coatings, although IPS is starting to catch up? Very well...I guess I have no choice but to try it for myself.

    ViewSonic VP2770: 2560x1440 Semi-Glossy PLS

    Hey y'all. About a 2 years ago I was in the market for a new monitor. Tried the Dell U2711, and absolutely abhorred the anti-glare coating. I don't know if I'm extra sensitive to it, but it seemed like the whole screen had been coated in oil and sprinkled with rainbow-colored grit. It was...

    Thing is though, remember what happened with NZXT's april fools joke last year... It stopped being a joke. :P

    NVIDIA Kepler GeForce GTX 680 Video Card Review @ [H]ardOCP

    Amazing results. I would never have thought it possible from nVidia. Thanks for the article.

    Catalyst 12.3 not enforcing vsync?

    If that's the case, they really shouldn't be pushing them out through the auto-updater yet...anyway, I've already rolled back.

    Catalyst 12.3 not enforcing vsync?

    Updated to 12.3 two days ago, and since then I've noticed that Catalyst is not enforcing vertical sync even when set to do so. Games with native vsync settings still abide by them, but I can't force global sync through the CCC. This is a very noticeable problem. I have a small monitor (17"...

    Samsung S27A970

    There's been no news. All the websites say March, but that's just parroting back Samsung's original projection. As much as I want to believe it'll be soon, remember that the S27A850D was delayed for quite a long time last year...hopefully that won't be an issue again...

    Samsung S27A970

    Some new pictures of the monitor are available, which was presented at CES 2012. Judging from the reflections, it does appear this will be a full glossy...

    Audio-Techinca ATH-A900 Headphones Review @ [H]

    Thanks for the advice, everyone. I don't play any games where sound is important for success, and I wouldn't call myself an audiophile, just someone who wants a quality set. I do prefer as much sound isolation as possible, provided quality doesn't suffer too much. I was under the impression...

    Audio-Techinca ATH-A900 Headphones Review @ [H]

    I've had my eye on Audio Technica for a long while, but I haven't yet had a chance to buy a pair, and I wasn't sure about open vs. closed. However, I hope to be able to do so in a few months, and this article really helped me figure out what I wanted (namely, this pair). Thanks as always, [H].

    Facebook Teen’s Father Shows Some Tough Love

    This was futile. You can argue all you want as to whether it was an appropriately proportional response or not, but one thing is certain: all this will do is ensure that his daughter hates him forever after.

    Corsair Enthusiast Series Modular Power Supply Review @ [H]

    Honestly I don't understand Corsair's product strategy at all. How is this supposed to be different from the AX and HX lines? For that matter, how are AX and HX supposed to be different? Note that I'm not saying they aren't, but Corsair has never gone out of its way to make very clear what is...
