    It's not that crazy. The nvidia video processor found on nvidia gpu's is called purevideo.

    Logitech G430 7.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset - $40

    let me sum up everything you need to know about gaming audio. The headphones with a bunch of speakers in them don't work well in general, because they are too close together. If you get fancy with an elaborate design, maybe they can work well, but I suspect most of them don't work well. What you...

    triple channel X58

    the cheapest thing to do would would be to find similar ram to what you currently have and fill the remaining slots with it.

    AMD Introduces Mantle At GPU 14

    A few things- 1. Some early talk suggested it would work on nvidia cards somehow. Obviously it can't. It doesn't even work on 6000 series radeon cards. 2. Linux support theoretically can happen, but games with mantle end up requiring windows anyway, so amd probably won't bother making a linux...

    Sandy Bridge = Legendary?

    to me- no. For example, the q6600 was an affordable versions of the fastest CPU available, having really only a lower multi, but otherwise being identical. In essence, it had the soul of a high end processor, but was priced at $200 at the height of it's popularity iirc. The 2500k, although...

    I have a question about Dolby Digital Live! and DTS NeoPC

    The general point you are making is true, but you can send this bitrate over spdif in the form of 2 channel, 24 bit, 96 khz audio iirc.

    I have a question about Dolby Digital Live! and DTS NeoPC

    the spdif specs were set in stone for cd players. They added more formats in the laserdisc era, but I think it's settled now. about dolby digital live - it accepts pcm formats only and encodes them to 640k dolby digital. On my xonar card, it is a distinct mode from digital output, which...

    Video Quality make me sad. 5870 vs GT210

    outside of deinterlacing, which arguably isnt even relevant anymore with the amount of progressive stuff nowadays, i would say they are basically the same.

    Uncompressed Blu-ray help

    what ts supports is a subset of what mkv supports. mkv supports a ton more stuff. The one exception to this is truehd + ac3 combo tracks, which aren't supported in mkv, but work in ts.

    The correct way to wenable playback on .mkv files through WMC 7

    for mkv file playback, i strongly recommend mpc hc, configured according to this new guide that popped up on avsforums: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1357375

    sub woofer quality

    how is it hooked up, via analog cables or hdmi/spdif? If analog, look for LFE crossover settings in your sound card driver. If digital, then look for LFE crossover settings in the receiver. Also, that will only apply to audio without an LFE channel. Play a movie with 5.1 audio, and the...

    Delayed audio response from receiver after inactivity

    what graphics card are you using btw? i think your problem can be solved by using wasapi exclusive mode, there is a new guide on avs that details how to do that with mpc hc, and some other stuff as well. If you are using xbmc or mediabrowser, i believe you can get them to use mpc hc to play...
