    Google Accused Of Trying To Sabotage Windows Phone

    Win Phone 8 is surprisingly good. And this seems like a dick move by Google. Actually this feels like a move out the past Microsoft playbook, but that doesn't make it right.

    24 inch monitor

    The 2412m isnt perfect, but it is a lot of monitor for the money ($270 or so). Cons are very light color banding in gradients (but you have to go looking for it), and mine has one dead pixel. This AG fuss just isn't an issue for me whatsoever. On the plus side, the image quality is excellent...

    ~$300 for a nice Video Card

    Those numbers are comparing a stock 660ti to an oc'd 7930. Stock to stock they are neck and neck. I'm currently running an Asus 660ti with an easy 10% OC, and it runs anything out there flawlessly smooth. My previous three cards were two 6950's and a 580. My experience with the 580 was far...

    ~$300 for a nice Video Card

    Thanks! Although I have to say, the diff between this card and the 660 TI is pretty trivial. The Asus 660 Ti runs cooler, quieter, and can also be OC'd nicely. Without that amazing game bundle (and it is amazing, but out of stock at the egg rite now), these two are really closely matched...

    AMD driver update again nonfunctional

    Never again. I've just had it with amd's inability to code a gd installer. I bailed on my 6950 when i couldnt reliably update the drivers, and now my wife's pc is basically bricked re the catalyst control center. Nothing fixes this, ie uninstalls, sweeper, dotnet updates.... Do you know what...

    Bought an Intel 320 120GB SSD yesterday, anything I need to do?

    SSD's are bleeding edge in the most germaine way. Intel SSD'S appear to be the best bet for stability, but not perfect.

    Anyone have both a 120 hz AND a 2560x1440 monitor?

    Oh and one more thing, sitting behind two ZR30W's, i dont see a shred of "grainyness" from the AG coating. Either it has much less coating than other IPS models (say the Dells for example), or uses a totally different coating, or some people are extra sensitive to such things. Either way, I'd...

    Anyone have both a 120 hz AND a 2560x1440 monitor?

    If I were in the market for a high rez 27", that Samsung would have my attention. Be warned though, if you've never sat behind a monitor with pixel pitch this small... its... well... SMALL. In other words, non scalable apps and text will be a bit hard to read and use. I have the ZR30W (the...

    HP ZR30W or Samsung S27A950D for FPS gaming?

    I have the ZR30W, used mostly for simming and rpg style gaming, and it is the nicest display I've ever experienced. I have no need for 120mhz, and TN panels make my eyes bleed. One thing I like to point out to folks looking at this panel is the wide gamut issue. If you have an ATI card, you...

    Build suggestions for a i5-2500k cpu

    I always recommend the MSI P67A-GD65 board, because it has a button on the board for automatic overclocking. And it works great for those that are intimidated by o/c jargon. 4.2 ghz for free. Goes great with that 2500K! - G
