    How do the latest video cards handle multiple monitors?

    I'm thinking about upgrading my setup, and I've been wondering about one thing: when I plug more than one monitor into my AMD HD6950, the idle clock jumps to 500/1250 instead of 250/150. This leads to having audible fan noise all the time and ultimately I got a cheap, passive 4350 to hook up my...

    More Foxconn Suicides?

    Nothing is wrong with the place. Consider two things: They employ tens of thousands of people. Or hundreds? Difficult not to be affected by statistics when you get to those numbers. Their suicide rate is actually below China's national average. (At least it was the last time this...

    iPhone And Apple Jumped The Shark

    It's funny that people seem to hold Apple to a much higher standard, and then conjecture about its decline when another year goes by where they don't revolutionize the industry.

    The First Google+ Privacy Flaw

    This is barely worth mentioning, things like this are why it's still in limited testing.

    AMD Will Not Endorse SYSmark 2012 Benchmark

    Leaving an organization that produces a canned benchmark to create an organization that produces a better canned benchmark? Uhhh, no, thanks. Just let people figure out by themselves how to benchmark your hardware? There's plenty of applications out there that we can use, audio & video...

    Corsair Force Series 3 SSD Issue Resolution & Drive Return Procedure

    I thought these drives are supposed to be amazingly incredible, but those numbers aren't all that much better than my "aging" X25-M G2. Did Sandforce figure out a way to get performance at the cost of worse deterioration? With Flash, you can use every single chip of an empty drive for blazing...

    Android Apps May Pass Apple's by August

    What about the ones with crap like Motoblur and pre-installed apps that can only be removed by root? Apple doesn't allow carriers to mess up their phones like that.

    Apple Lied: Filed Patent for Mobile Device Tracking

    Because companies only patent ideas they intend to use?

    The Portal 2 Thread **Warning May Contain Spoilers**

    Nope, it was the third complete one I think. Already knew all the answers and could go pretty much straight through. First one was maybe a little under three hours. I've never heard that it supposedly takes four.

    The Portal 2 Thread **Warning May Contain Spoilers**

    The funny thing is that Portal also took me just 1,5h to complete on Monday. Interesting that we can differ so much on the sequel. I'll gladly accept any opinion, it's just the ones presented as fact that I have a problem with. Most people seem to take as long to complete Portal 2 as they do...

    Would PC gaming be better with fewer video card choices?

    As you know, many developers have been focusing more on consoles lately. When it comes to graphics, I would say the results have not only been negative - while the complexity has been fairly stagnant with a few exceptions, overall quality has gone up while being perfectly smooth to play on...

    The Portal 2 Thread **Warning May Contain Spoilers**

    It's not a casual game just because it can be finished it very quickly. Most gamers seem to take twice as long as you did, and for casuals it will last even longer. If you argue that way, any game which casuals get more playtime out of is a casual one... which is pretty much every game, ever...

    The Portal 2 Thread **Warning May Contain Spoilers**

    So you timed yourself playing through a game to an accuracy of minutes? I hope you won't try to claim that this did not affect how you played. Plus, you've been saying that you're very good at puzzles, so how exactly are those four hours a meaningful metric? I took almost twice as long, like...

    The Portal 2 Thread **Warning May Contain Spoilers**

    Out of those things only graphics aren't mostly subjective once you get into the realm of professional production. They may be dated, but as this game does not even contain any organic characters this becomes much less obvious. Here's a test for the other two criteria: Name one game that you...
