True, but I figure if you bring a game onto a market already crowded with other games you should probably bring something new to the table. From my limited time playing FFXIV really doesn't do much here and combat being one of the biggest parts of an MMO I would think it would be pretty low...

I don't think you really have to worry about CoD of BF as far as player population goes on consoles. Even with both of them being paywalled I think that you will find more than enough people to play with. Although in Sony's situation coming from a previously completely free online system I think...

I was playing as a Conjurer and I used two skills (one which was a DOT, so effectively one spell) until I got another spell around lvl 10. Then again a conjurer seems to be primarily a healing class so maybe I should try out a DPS class and re-evaluate things. I am just comparing this to Rift...

I want a 760 (or maybe 770) but am wondering if I should perhaps invest in a new CPU. I've been hesitant since Haswell hasn't seemed like a huge jump in performance. Right now I am rocking an i7 920 OC'd to 3.8GHz and a 570GTX. I've noticed that in some of the MMO's I play now that things are...

Rift surprised me by how fun it was during the leveling process. If you ever get bothered by the traditional leveling route of questing or doing dungeons you can run all around the map closing rifts down (think open-world instances with objectives). Having a lot of freedom in how you build your...

The game started out super slow for me (the first 13 or so levels dragged) but am really starting to enjoy the content once I hit level 15. I think combat for the first 10 or so levels is way to simplistic. I think something as little as providing each class with more skills earlier on would...

Given that these boards are up around the $350-$370 range does it make more sense to invest $50 more and just put up a EVGA Classified?

What is the general consensus on the USB3.0 and SATA 6Gbps? Is it worth it to invest now for the future or would it be a better idea to go with the motherboards currently available. I am in the middle of building an i7 PC and have all my parts but the motherboard. Was hoping to see some good...

Is it me or does it still look like this board might RAM clearance issues with some of the bigger HSF's out there.

No dedicated servers is a travesty. I had planned to pickup bot the PC version and the 360 version because of friends playing on both platforms but no dedicated servers on the PC version canceled my PC version buy. Apparently one of the reasons they aren't allowing dedicated servers is to make...

For someone who doesn't plan to overclock past 3.6-3.8ghz would it be worth it to spend the extra money on an EVGA X58 Classified?

Thanks for the reply. The monitor is gorgeous and has no dead or stuck pixels and only seems to have these color shifts on blacks/dark colors. It is a little annoying but I don't think it will bother me enough to want to return it, especially if this is a problem that is common to TN panels.

Just recieved my G2400WD and was wondering if anyone has had color uniformity problems on the display? On dark screens I notice that the top 20% of the screen comes out darker than the rest of the screen. I can drag these forums down the screen and notice a shift in the color of gray in...

Unfortunately I don't have a camera up here with me, but lemme see if I can't diagram something out or take a stock picture of the P180 and try to place where all my components are. My setup looks pretty identical to this. I have an 8800GTX with a Creative X-fi Platinum right under it and a...

Figured I'd drop this question in here since most of you guys are thermal veterans. I am doing no overclocking at all, running a stock system with an E6850 (w/ stock heatsink) and an 8800GTX among other components and have some weird temperature issues. With the side on my P180 and 4x 120mm...
