    Arozzi Vernazza Gaming Chair Unboxing & Assembly @ [H]

    Nice vid Kyle, really enjoy these. I just took delivery on a Clutch Shift B series chair yesterday. The build process is virtually identical. Based on what I saw in your video the chairs seem to be very, very similar, right down to the packaging hehe... The one major difference looks to be...

    Kaby Lake 7700K vs Sandy Bridge 2600K IPC Review @ [H]

    I've been talking friends and family members with anything Sandybridge and newer out of CPU upgrades for years (in some cases even Bloomfield). SSD's, RAM, and graphics cards is where their money has been spent instead. My 3770K @ 4.8 was still serving me fine up until I sold my 780ti's early...

    PowerColor Red Devil Radeon RX 470 Video Card Review @ [H]

    Yep, we're getting completely screwed north of the 49th. The good old live in Canada tax...

    PowerColor Red Devil Radeon RX 470 Video Card Review @ [H]

    I was hoping for a lower price on this card. More like $159 for reference, with the custom cards being in the $169-$179 range. All things being equal (meaning you can actually get them) it's hard to imagine buying one of these and not spending the extra $20 for the 4GB 480. Too bad though...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition Review @ [H]

    Unfortunately it's not the Ti, it's "just" a 980. I'd be bummed out a bit too... in my case though I started selling off my old gear a couple months ago in anticipation of the new gear from both Nvidia and AMD coming soon. Been living with a 750 Ti, oddly I haven't missed my 780 Ti's as much...

    Rise of the Tomb Raider Video Card Performance Review @ [H]

    I played in on my XBO because I got if for free. I really enjoyed the game, lot of fun and overall. I think the gaming mechanics were better this time around, with the story being a bit better in the previous one. The PC version sure looks good...

    Halo 5: Guardians Limited Edition Unboxing

    At least the Halo 5 console has a 1TB drive in it. The 500GB in the mainstream version is useless, providing around 360GB of usable space. 6 AAA games and it's all but full. Mine lasted less than a week before I opened it up and installed a 2TB drive, best move you can make with it IMHO. My...

    ASUS R9 390X STRIX DirectCU III 8G OC Review @ [H]

    I'm impressed overall. Considering a 290X "was" slower than the 780Ti, this is quite an achievement by AMD IMHO. Almost makes me wish I had gone with 290's way back hehe...

    Leaked Intel Core i7-6700K Skylake Benchmarks?

    I'd love to see AMD do something to get back into a decent position, or at the very least get to a point where they can compete again with respect to IPC again. I almost talked myself into an AMD machine a while back just for running VM's and stuff, but couldn't do it. I compromised with a...

    Mini Ice Age To Hit In 2030

    Wow, where do you live? We might get to 110F (43c) in my neck of the woods a few times over the summer, even with an extra 10c we wouldn't be at your temps. Thankfully our normal summer temps are closer to 90F, but in your case... I'd move hehe...

    NVIDIA HairWorks 1.1 Demonstration Video

    Don't worry, I don't need a paper bag... My point is, why reinvent the wheel? Wouldn't we as gamers be better served if NV spent money on resources bringing something new to games rather than a "me too"? I love options, just not ones that are repeats... just like I have no interest in yet...

    NVIDIA HairWorks 1.1 Demonstration Video

    Really? We need another hair rendering option? Seriously, TressFX is fine, it runs well on both AMD and Nvidia hardware why this? Here's an idea, how about they both get over themselves and work together on making TressFX the best it can be instead of wasting time trying to one up each other...

    Grand Theft Auto V Single GPU Performance Review Part 1

    Any thoughts as to whether or not drivers could improve the performance of the older gen, Kepler and GCN 1.0, GPU's? Just thinking there maybe some driver optimizations that could be done to improve things? Mind you even if it is possible I guess it's not overly likely that NV or AMD would be...

    Destiny Update: No Bug Fixes...But We Nerfed Your Guns!

    I didn't buy this day one. I waited about a week... watched a bunch of the day one reviews on PSN live, watched a bunch of other game play streams. I saw enough to know I'd like it. Sure enough I do. I never really played multiplayer games on my PS3 or 4 so I only had 1 PSN friend. Now I have...
