    Gigabyte AX370 Gaming K7

    Ah ha! Annoyingly, the bclk isn't listed on the specifications and doesn't show up in the comparison tool, but a manual comparison of the front product pages does show that. Thanks!

    Gigabyte AX370 Gaming K7

    What's the difference between the Gaming 5 and the K7? Confusingly, there is also a K5! The comparison tool on Gigabyte's website doesn't seem to show any difference whatsoever, but the K7 is more expensive, so there must be a difference.

    Intel Ivy Bridge Retail Shipments Came in Monday

    I used to work electronics retail as well; initial allocations to stores for product were ridiculous sometimes. Even for large product launches, it wasn't uncommon to receive pitiful amounts of stock. (As little as 2-3 per store in the area I worked in.)

    Corsair "Barebones" Christmas Giveaway!

    What I love about corsair is their memory and power supplies. I've had great luck with them and the prices have been pretty good too!

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Performance & IQ Preview @ [H]

    What if there was no way to get it working with AMD's current drivers? It's AMD's responsibility to release drivers that work correctly. AMD knew that the game was coming out and exactly when. Sorry, but blaming the developer is just silly -- especially when it comes to DirectX-based games.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Performance & IQ Preview @ [H]

    Thanks for getting this out Kyle; I know you had to stay up pretty late.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Performance & IQ Preview @ [H]

    You do realize that the developers edited and created the entire game *on a PC* right? As a number of developers have pointed out, driver overhead (and other things) make it really difficult to get close-to-bare-metal performance on PCs. While you might justifiably say that they could have...

    SB guys going SB-E or no?

    I'm waiting for Ivy Bridge. I have an aging Core 2 Duo E8600 that plays what few games I have well enough that I can't be bothered to upgrade before then.

    Official release date of Bulldozer

    As someone that regularly is asked to review marketing materials produced for the software products I work on, I call shenanigans. The alleged slides presented there look nothing like most of the materials I've seen from AMD in the past, and certainly nothing like what I'd expect from a...

    Purported AMD Bulldozer Benchmarks Leaked

    You do probably care about how fast the virus scanner or other malware-prevention program runs in the background without slowing down your game though. Or your firewall software, or...you get the idea.

    Netflix Slams ISPs Again for Broadband Caps

    Comcast business class internet is only $5 more a month than standalone residential internet, at least where I live in CA. It didn't take more than few seconds for me to decide which one I'd rather have. (No caps, guaranteed bandwidth minimums, and SLA, etc. -- business class is way better.)

    Corsair Vengeance RAM Giveaway! 5 12GB Kits!

    Corsair kicks ass because they're all out of bubble gum, and only puny memory vendors are left.

    Verizon Proposes Wholesale Rewrite of US Telecom Law

    Yes, let's cut down to one organisation that's way there's less people for them to bribe! (only half joking)

    what happened to all the Nvidia manufacturer's?

    I've had a PNY GTX 280 since its launch and it's still working just fine. I'm hoping it will still that way for another year at least until I can afford to upgrade :(

    How Bad are nVidia SLI in First Person Shooters?

    SLI is great if you can live with some of the glitches. I'll never forget the first time I fired up the original Unreal on my Dual 3DFX Voodo 2's in SLI. Absolutely beautiful. I haven't done SLI since then though simply because of the cost. Ultimately, what others said here is the best...
