    Looking to get into the Persona series.

    I kind of treat Persona 3 and Persona 4 separate from Persona 1 and Persona 2:IS/EP. 3 and 4 have a much different game and art design. 3 and 4 goes though a day to day life of a protagonist where he can interact with others and fight in dungeons tied to the story. However, it seems that the...

    Intel CEO: The PC Is Here To Stay

    To be honest, I'd probably see tablets and smartphones eat more at the need of laptops moreso than desktops since the desktop is always assumed to be static while the laptop and tablet focuses more on improving mobility and focusing on what the general public wants -- a consumption device. If...

    Antec Case & PSU Combo Lucky Draw!!!!!

    I love my Antec Solo, it's whisper quiet and extremely sturdy. I've deployed several machines using Earthwatts PSUs and all of them are still working to this day. I'm looking to retire my current rig to be a server and wouldn't mind a new Case/PSU.

    Are you skipping 2500K/2600K?

    My Q6600 is holding up rather well and still has a bit to go on its OC. I'm planning on waiting until die shrink "Tick" processors before I consider upgrading. It also gives AMD time to release desktop bulldozers so I can compare prior to upgrading. Only upgrade I might do this year is add a SSD.

    Gigabyte Holiday [H] Give-Away!!!

    I've always liked the blue PCBs in Gigabyte boards, I don't care what anybody says. Though with the experience I've had with all the Gigabyte boards I use, it could be hot pink and I'll still use them. Also, my parents need a better rig than the P3 Coppermine that they've been using for a little...

    Quad Core - How long until upgrading ?

    Q6600s, especially G0's, are great overclockers. In many cases, you can get to 3.0ghz (9*333mhz) without raising Vcore or other voltages. at 3.0-3.6ghz, you should be good for at least another couple years.

    Gigabyte Q-Flash

    Qflash can be extremely picky on what usb drives you use. I've found that it tends to pick up smaller drives than larger ones. I've tried formatting my 8GB flash drive as Fat32 and it simply wouldn't work. Had legacy USB on and whatnot but it still wouldn't show up. For shits and giggles I...

    Can't get my Q6600 Higher than 3.00GHz

    B3s can sometimes be a pain to OC and 3.0 seems to be a common wall for that stepping. I've never been a big fan of touching PLL voltages and 1.750 seems dangerously high in my mind unless you plan on replacing the chip in a short period of time. Could your motherboard be holding you back...

    Gigabyte QFlash with USB drive

    1. It has to be Fat32 or Fat formatted. Qflash can't read NTFS drives. 2. You may have to look for an option called Enable Legacy USB devices and make sure that's enabled, disable it after flash. 3. Make sure the drive in plugged in before post. It won't show up if you plug it in while in...

    2009 Netbooks Sales Up, Notebooks Down

    I've regretted my current laptop for about the past 2 years. I came with the expectations of it for gaming or professional purposes. In both cases, it fails horribly. Doing any sort of stress on the CPU causes it to overheat and any professional work restricts my battery time thus keeping me...

    P45 Mobo Recommendations

    +1 on the UD3P. I got my DS3L about a month before the UD3 series was released and regretted not waiting to get one. I've had zero luck with my DS3L being able to get it to run at 400mhz bus speeds. 7*400 doesn't work (tried vcore upto 1.4v and MCH upto 1.26v with little luck) and yet 9*358...

    PCIe power adapters?

    PCI-e power only comes in 6 or 8 pin configurations. I'm somewhat confused on how you have 4-pin PCI-e power connectors.
