    Opera Notches 100 Million Mobile Users

    It's my default desktop browser. I prefer the way it increases text size without breaking the page in most cases.

    GBT Builds a Board that is NOT Fugly

    I like G-Boards usually. :cool: I never really noticed the fugly bit. The only one that's ever let me down was a mATX board that would fail to POST after 2 or 3 days of use. I forget the model but it was probably 3-4 years ago when I built a gaming lanbox to take on the road while I was...

    Digital Crack

    Doom II - Never gets old to me. I still reinstall it once a year or so and go apeshit. Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition - Loved this game so much. Quake 2: RA2 - Seriously I played that for years. Diablo 2 LoD - Digital crack indeed. Morrowind - Great mods kept coming out and I kept playing...

    XFX nForce 790i Ultra Motherboard Preview @ [H]

    Excellent preview and I really appreciate the fact that you guys took such pains to stress test the board like that. I'm not currently in the market for a new MB, but it's useful information regardless. I can certainly attest to the fact that I'll always check this site for previews/reviews...

    Dead Rising going coop?

    I hope it's true. I've been playing this game off and on for awhile. I've been drawing it out slowly and leveling before I make a real attempt at finishing. Some coop play with freinds would be awesome.

    PC Gaming vs. Console Gaming whats your pick?

    I've just recently picked up an X360. I'm not yet comfortable with the gamepad thumbsticks and I really suck at playing console games right now, but I'll get better at it. I'm still a primarily PC gamer, but there are just too many great games on consoles that I've been missing out on through...

    Prices for 7800gtx 256?

    Thanks man, to be honest, I'd be more interested in swapping for something, but I can't really think of anything I need right now. D'oh! :( I'm probably going to end up giving this shit away to family or friends like I usually do. The funny part is that they never quite realize the...

    Prices for 7800gtx 256?

    That makes a whole lot more sense to me than some of the $400+ prices I've seen at pricewatch and others. I've got a 7800gtx 256 and an x1900xtx sitting around collecting dust at the moment and I'm trying to justify selling them off. I'm kinda uncomfortable with selling stuff to people I...

    Prices for 7800gtx 256?

    I've got one sitting on the shelf and was thinking of unloading it, but I couldn't in good conscience try to sell it off at the prices that I've seen. I'm seriously trying to get a sense of the value of these cards before I offer it to anyone, Is it simply a case of supply and demand at this...

    Prices for 7800gtx 256?

    It seems like they're off the chart to me. Can anyone here give me a link to a somewhat reasonable price for one of these? Is $300 too high/low or what? I've been out of touch and didn't realize. :( What's the real value of these outdated cards?

    Best video card of all time?

    I actually did do that at one point. I had a Riva 128ZX and Voodoo 2 SLI in a PII-450 Dell. The Riva card came with the Dell and I retired my old Diamond Monster 3D. I wasn't satisfied with the Riva card and added the Voodoo 2 cards. I spent many nights playing Q2/RA2 with that config. Great...

    Best video card of all time?

    Definitely have to agree with you on both cards. I originally got the Rendition Vérité 1000 card for vQuake then switched to the Diamond Monster Voodoo. GLQuake was much better. Great card and it lasted me until I paired up some 12MB DM Voodoo 2's for some sli action. I'm still using my...

    Quick question about XFX 7800GTX PowerDVD

    I'm having all kinds of problems getting powerdvd 5 to work on my lanbox. I'm trying to isolate the cause and need some input. I'm at the point now where I'm suspecting that it might be an incompatibility with the vid card and/or drivers. I've got a 7800GTX using 81.98 drivers. Does anyone else...

    Show Your LCD(s) setups!!!

    I use the Dell 2405 for my main desktop display. It's running off that Antec P-160 box. I use the 22" Diamond Pro CRT with an AIW 9700Pro for TV watching running on my filebox/backup PC. You can't really see it in the picture, but it's directly under the CRT (generic Antec black case)...

    Sony FW900 (24"WS) blurry with a X1800XT

    Have you tried using both DVI connectors on your card? Usually the bottom connector is for analog DVI/VGA output.
