    Netflix to Stream 4K Content In a 'Year or Two'

    I'm wondering if Netflix is planning on using H265 to carry out this feat. H265 is supposed to be 2x more efficient than the H264 codec used in Blu-Rays.

    Red Hat CEO Decries Software Patents

    He's right of course. The software industry is really selling customer support and not the software itself. For example, I can go to www.sourceforge.net and find software that does the same thing as commercial software and it costs me nothing. What's the difference? The open-source software...

    LCD's vs CRT's

    I just bought an LCD because it was the only 22" + monitor being sold that had a warranty and a high resolution. Now I'm starting to regret it. CRT's just looked better. 1) They don't interpolate pixels at different resotions 2) They are fast for gaming. 3) They have better balanced...

    kyle pwns ati hah nice job

    Although I haven't owned an ATI card for about 7 years now, I hope they don't start making bad decisions and go under. Without ATI, there is no competion. No competition means higher prices and less innovation for you and me. Hopefully they can get their act together and come out with the...

    Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 500GB drive is finally available.

    This site is the only one listed on pricewatch.com that carries it in stock. They posted it yesterday. Hopefully the reviews start coming soon. I'd like to see how it stands up to the Hitachi drive.

    MSI K8N Neo2 Plat. memory woes :(

    I have this board and I've never had issues with my memory. I use 1GB Corsair Twinx 3200XL in Dual-Channel. I might be wrong, but if I remember correctly, I believe that Kyle doesn't review OCZ memory anymore because of some reason having to do with their dishonest sales practices. Can...

    XP120 vs Big Typhoon ..and more questions

    As far as your decision between the xp-120 and the Big Typhoon: According to my latest issue of Maximum PC (Sep. Issue), the Big Typhoon seems to be the best option in terms of silence/performance criteria compared to the XP-120. XP-120 can only beat the Big Typhoon with it's fan is at high...

    NDA removed for the R520 aka X950XTpe today ?

    Read my posts again. I said that my system gets between 40 to 50 fps at 1600x1200 at 4AA and 16 AF. I've only played the first level of the game at this setting. Some parts of an area hover as low as 38-41 FPS while other areas are as high as 48-52FPS depending on the complexity of that...

    NDA removed for the R520 aka X950XTpe today ?

    @SoLiD_MasteR You are correct. BF2 is a CPU and memory hog. It's poorly coded, looks worse and plays worse than Far Cry, and should be put into the hall of shame. That being said, to improve the performance I would rather spend money on a new BFG 6800 Ultra and pair it in SLI rather than...

    NDA removed for the R520 aka X950XTpe today ?

    I could frankly care less which card is going to be faster. 1) Hardly any games are taking advantage of the performance and features these cards offer. Hopefully that changes during the holiday season. 2) CPU's from AMD and Intel are Bottlenecking any performance increases these cards...

    I am sick of 3D games,,,

    There were alot of awful 2d games during the SNES, Genesis era. I think that we tend to remember all the great games from that era instead of remembering all the sh*tty titles. I think that 3D games are just as fun as the 2D games. Games like Beyond Good & Evil, Psychonauts, MDK2, Giants...
