    Evo or Driod x (in boston)

    I currently have an Evo. I can't say which is better because I don't own both, but I really like the Evo. The camera is good quality. The giant screen is nice. I find the micro SD card slot really handy. However, I heard the Droid X had better battery life. I think that claim was made before the...

    GTS 250 512MB vs 1GB for dedicated PhysX

    I agree with him. I highly doubt you need a gigabyte of PhysX RAM. Any physics processing you are going to do probably doesn't need that much buffer space. Save your money.

    Anyone kill-a-watt an i7?

    Not much. I have a 920. If you aren't planning to overclock then a 550w is perfectly acceptable. That's what I had before I got a GTX 480. I'd go with Corsair or Rosewill. I've had good results with those brands.

    Having problems with 5870 help please!

    I'm going to have to agree with him. Try that first, then make sure your drivers are up to date.

    Question for "Beats" by Dr. Dre owners

    One more thing, stay away from cheap noise canceling headphones. The only noise canceling headphones I've ever actually liked are over $200. They were Sony and Bose cans. Bose doesn't have the best audio, but I think they have some of the best noise canceling tech. I still refuse to spend that...

    Question for "Beats" by Dr. Dre owners

    I have some Sennheiser HD 428 headphones. They work great. They have good bass, and are more balanced headphones (they are good with the highs and lows). I recommend you find a way to test some before you buy because good headphones are hard to come by, and everyone has a different preference...

    Cryengine 3 to Use in-house Physics Engine, No Havok Physics or PhysX Middleware

    I agree.

    Is Firefox really that slow to you?

    Firefox has always been the fastest to me for page loading. Chrome is only faster in opening the browser window. I've never had problems rendering pages. You might want to check for another problem there. I'm on the internet almost all of the day. I have tried all the mainstream browsers.

    Planning Project: OSIDIAS (SFF taken to the extreme)

    Agreed, this case is going to be amazing.

    All-in-one Reccomendations?

    I would buy a 27 inch Core i5 iMac and toss Windows 7 on it. I had a Mac, and I hate OSX. Just toss Windows on it.

    How to remove the stickers?

    I bought a toolbox one time, and the hairdryer and water approach didn't clean the residue. It took forever, but I found vegetable oil finally cleaned it off. However, you still need to use water to get read of the greasiness. This was a paper price sticker though, so it may not be the best...

    Planning Project: OSIDIAS (SFF taken to the extreme)

    I was watching your video, and I'm curious why you would use a pico-itx PC to control the water-cooling. You could probably just use an Arduino Mega or something like that to control the various pumps and what not. However, I can definitely see the cool guy factor of having 3 PCs in one case.

    Planning Project: OSIDIAS (SFF taken to the extreme)

    That case is sick, but how come all of the renderings only show one side of the case. I'm thinking you should try making some kind of case window, but that's just my two cents. I have to say, that is really cool. I'm thinking of doing some modding to my Antec 900, but I'm not this good. =D

    capacitor fell off gtx 280

    I just wanted to say, that if you haven't done this before i don't recommend it. If I can't stop you, then at least practice and follow some good tutorials. If it is surface mount, then I highly recommend these tutorials for surface mount soldering: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQXhny3R7lk...

    Does anyone here own a Barnes and Noble Nook?

    Yeah I was about to say something about that, until I saw your reply. I really think the kindle is better because the touch screen seems gimmicky to me. However, I think the Que technology should be marketed with a larger tablet manufacturer and sold with them in a capacitive tablet. I just...
