    Unstable Network with TPlink ac1750

    Hi folks, I had a Huawei LTE modem (B593) do the double duty of modem and router for my place but I decided to take the leap and setup a router to get better control over the network traffic (parental control and scheduler). I have purchased a TPlink ac1750 (Archer D7) router. I have disabled...

    Steam Summer Sale starts tomorrow.

    If you had to pick one game which one would you pick between Max Payne 3 and Dishonored. Trying to reign in my spending so I am going to limit myself to one or the other :D

    Steam Summer Sale starts tomorrow.

    I purchased Spec Ops, FTL and Swappers but Gunpoint didn't make the cut on the community choice so I will have to wait till it comes up on sale. So far its been a good sale and I just need a few more games (Dust Elysian Tale, Van hellsing, and whatever peaks my interest) but any headway I made...

    Traveling with Data

    Have you considered using something like Drop Box or Box. Your pictures/important documents can be accessed at any point from any device. They both offer a free 2GB account that you can try and determine if they meet your needs.

    The garbage known as UBIsoft

    I am also experiencing a problem with the promo code. I placed the order and their system accepted the code but later cancelled and I never received an email to confirm the purchase or the cancelling of it. I've been dealing with Ubisoft tech support trying to get it sorted it out and get a cd...

    Which 7950 to buy? (Gigabyte WF3 or Sapphire 950 / Vapor-X)

    Hi folks, I am in the market for a new card to replace my Sapphire 5770 Vapor-x. I have read the last 10 pages and the one thing that I got is to stay clear of the Sapphire 7950 Vapor-x but I was curious what was the verdict between the Gigabyte 7950 WF3 and the Sapphire 7950 ?

    Post your New Ivy Bridge Processor Thermals, Type of Cooling, and First Impressions:

    Hey folks, I've had my new 3770k system for about a month now and I am looking to OC it but this will be the first time that I ever attempted it. I've read a few pages and I've been able to piece together what I have to do but I just won't be certain that I don't screw things up. I have my...

    New Build: Figuring out the pieces

    My bad on the wrong use of the terminology and thanks for clearing that up. I went ahead with the dual kit since newegg had a 15% off promo for them :) . I've ordered the ram and SSD but I've scaled back the SSD to 128GB. Thanks Danny for all your help figuring out the components. Last...

    New Build: Figuring out the pieces

    Perfect , so I will stick with the SSD and HDD combo instead of using the msata. I've picked up the UD5 mobo and the 212+ HSF, 2 down 3 more components to go :). I've given it some thought and I don't think I will go beyond the 16GB for the ram. Everything that I've read says that the...
