    Decoding DTS and Dolby digital live

    they are probably fine, just need the volume turning up a bit. How the should function is they should create atmospheric background sound when viewing, but you should distinctively hear them louder when an action happens behind you. It might just be a case of turning them up a bit. Because my...

    Need help getting dolby digital on Battlefield 3 to work

    BF3 says Dolby digital, but it's unable to use encode a 5.1 signal to an optical link. It just means it uses and sound engine that is certified by Dolby digital standards. Eg the bit-rate of the sounds, the positioning of sound etc... If your receiver has analogue inputs, use them for BF3 and...

    120Hz and framerate

    I was using the values from what the CoD engine rounds them to. The list I Gave is the values of the ms/frame that is presented in the game engine, Not the actual math. Basically once again, no one is going to pay a blind bit attention what I'm going on about, I'm just gonna get the same story...

    120Hz and framerate

    Right ok, I'm going to try and explain this as simple as I can. lets say my screen refreshes at 60hz. And I'm playing a game, Lets say Call of Duty. (cos most people can run it). Now any fps over 60hz will run fine, because it is higher than the refresh rate. However when your fps dips below...

    Decoding DTS and Dolby digital live

    Indeed I know it is. Realistically I'd love to have an Amp to decode 7.1 PCM. But most games don't use a high enough bitrate to tell the difference. The z-5500, to me, sound better over Optical. But maybe if I invest in real sound card it would make change a over analogue. I have replaced my two...

    120Hz and framerate

    Normally when gaming as soon as you go under the Refresh rate of the monitor a game feel sluggish, You start to get mouse lag. Because your running at 120hz, when your games drop below it, it's going to feel slow. In BF3 in the graphics options you can change the refresh rate. So you could just...
