    Dirty PCB the new norm?

    I've seen it on almost everything I've purchased. I find it a bit unsettling, really. Even though everything (usually) works fine, I sometimes wonder if the quality could have been better.

    What is your primary phone OS and primary computer CPU?

    I own an Android and an Intel CPU. I was a bit surprised at the large gap between Android/Intel owners and Android/AMD owners, that's pretty interesting.

    Anybody else ready for another WW2 Game :(

    The only entertaining aspect of BF1943 was taking planes and crashing them into foot soldiers. Other than that, the mechanics were clunky and playing the game was naturally followed by a bunch of annoying 12-year-old console players.

    Modding an H60 for my 6870 MSI

    Yeah, and have it in an X-shape across the block. Then use springs in tandem with screws to ease the tension on the PCB.

    DLC getting even more ridiculous - peripheral-exclusive DLC

    I sat here for a while trying to discern from which angle I should attack this, but I decided that this was wrong in too many ways. If they bring more of this sort of exclusive content distribution to PC, it will make a lot of people angry (more so than it already has).

    Modding an H60 for my 6870 MSI

    This is an awesome idea! Have you thought of fashioning some sort of X-bracket and putting springs between that and the card? That could work as well.

    Strange Issue With ASRock H61M/U3S3

    I was assembling a low-budget build when I uncovered a problem. The motherboard, an ASRock H61M/U3S3, would not recognize the hard drive, a Seagate ST3500413AS. I thought nothing of it and installed Windows 7 on it from my computer. When I plugged it back in to the new build and rebooted, it...

    Wow, that's pretty significant. Thanks for the tip. :D

    Memory vs Bus Question

    Would the 9600GT be better than a GSO, and by how much?

    Memory vs Bus Question

    Hey, I'm looking at buying of two 9600 GSO's to use as a backup when something happens to my normal one or when I'm in transition. I'd like to know which one would better, the one with 512MB of RAM with a 128-bit bus or the one with 384MB of RAM with a 192-bit bus? Thanks.

    Get a 5870 or Wait for Southern Islands?

    Sorry, I just updated my signature with my specs. My 5750 isn't really doing too well at 1080p...
