I went from iPhone 4S to Galaxy S5 a couple weeks ago. The 5.0 update I did a week ago actually made my cell reception worse. If I want to make a call without walking 200 yards from my apartment, I need to use the iPhone (or use my Galaxy S5 before I updated it). AT&T reception is really bad...

I've never even played Quake, but I think it's the first game to have the modern "WASD-mouse" controls, and I heard that the game designers didn't even intend for it to have it, but players invented it. Also, I recently played Duke Nukem 3D, and I was able to give it "modern FPS" controls...

In the other Hitman games, you earned dollars; in this game, you earn points. I could write more, but that pretty much sums up my feelings toward this game (and it's TRUE). I'd advise most people to read the game's wikipedia article for the plot, and then DL sniper challenge (that one is...

Charge her with distribution of child pornography. Best Buy gives the employee an official warning for doing a personal business transaction on company time.

As far as I can tell, they clicked the like button when they were at home and not supposed to be working (and the coke vs pepsi thing is just an example the OP came up with). And since it's a government job, they should be protected from getting fired for something like this.

When the Phenom 1s came out, people were speculating that they had "reverse hyper-threading" to make up for their lack of... goodness. Let's see what stories about BIOS fixes and stuff people come up with for these. I was an AMD fanboy back when my s754 Sempron got a 50% overclock and played...

My research is telling me that the 560ti will have a little under 2x the fps of the 4870. My advice for graphics cards is usually to figure out the budget and buy just at the top end of that, since market forces usually make the frames-per-second to dollar to pain-in-the-ass ratio about the...

">1600" MB/s on FX, versus 2700 MB/s on an i7? If this was some random incidental thing I wouldn't care, but the fact that AMD's slide is sort-of bragging about it seems like a bad sign.

Swat 4, Hitman 1/2/3, System Shock 2, &c. on a 1920x1200 monitor play at 1600x1200. Those games on a 1920x1080 monitor play at 1280x1024. Also, 16:10 just fills my personal field of vision better, but that's because of how my nose and brow are. Your results may vary. =)

In response to the semi-tangent regarding whether it's "really a dual-core": Let's say I took a dual-core CPU, and removed a core (not sure how, but it doesn't really matter). What's left would basically be a single-core CPU. Let's say I took a BD module, and removed a "single-core CPU"...

What is this, though? A board for gamers who really really want 6 cores?

Horizontal motherboard. Sharp/jagged edges (if it saves on cost =) ) No tool-less installers; I usually remove them and use screws. USB 3.0 support. Windows!

Same reason someone would want the 2600 over the 2500*? *: Both non-K.

1. Invite female to my place. 2. Wait for her to see my computer and say "damn, that thing's huge." 3. Say "wish I had a dollar for every time I heard that." 4. ? 5. Profit.
