I'm currently running an I7 950 and was wondering what's up next after the 2600K (specifically around the release of Battlefield 3 this fall)? I can't find a road map that actually tells me where we'll be around the fall timeframe. My plan is to upgrade the processor, mobo and video card for...

lol, this made me laugh.

My company just bought me a new Macbook Pro today. Well actually I went to the Apple store and picked it up. I was considering on waiting to see what comes out, but I'm tired of waiting and wanted a system. This thing screams and have been converted to Mac. I got the 17" MBP with standard...

Unfortunately I'm using AGP which is why I haven't updated that for so long. I'm in a real slump right now because this system deperately needs updated but with new releases looming on the horizon, I'm stuck with this for a bit.

Ok, wait I shall. lol I'm building a new desktop system too, (see sig, my system is a bit over 3 years old) so I'm waiting on that as well. This is good though, it'll give me more time to read up on this stuff plus I love getting something right when it comes out.

I'll just wait then. The reasons for my upgrading are numerous. I bought STALKER a month ago, it was a slideshow for the most part. I just got Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design and it's fairly system intensive as well. I attended a conference a couple weeks ago and we were using a brand new Mac Pro...

Ok, my current system is grossly out of date IMO (see sig) and am looking to upgrade. I priced out all the gear from Newegg for around $1400 to include a E6700, 8800GTS, 2gb ddr2, etc. Would I be ok upgrading now or should I wait? I've been out of the computer loop for a bit. I've been...

I'd prefer the matte screen as I never really liked the glossy. My wifes laptop is glossy and the glare is horrible. I'm not sure what to do now, I feel that an update is real close simply because I want to buy now (that's my luck). I may hold out till WWDC and see if they announce anything...

I'm planning on getting a Macbook Pro and have a question, actually two. 1) I noticed you can get the screen in either the basic matte or a glossy for no extra charge. Are there any positive/negatives to either decision? 2) Is my timing bad on actually buying a MBP? I've been reading that...

I've been out of the loop with systems for a little while and I'm considering an upgrade. I currently have an FX-53 (939) with a gig of ram and a 6800GT. I priced out a new system for around $1600 which included an AMD X2 4400+, 2gigs of ram, mobo, 7800GT and the other odds and ends. My...

The price gouging has really commenced. The cheapest Pricewatch lists the 4400+ for now is $721. I was getting ready to buy all my parts for a new system build, but this supply/price isn't working for me now. I've decided to wait a couple months and see what AMD does with the pricing, and...

I found 3 eggs with chocolate and money in them. Here's a pic of one of the eggs I found. hehe

I read the techreport review. Well damn, the benchmarks that mattered to me the most (not gaming) put the AMD in first most of the time. I guess I'll build another AMD system with dual Opterons.

Adobe is working on a HD plugin for Premiere as I'm guessing they are with Discreet products as well.

I have a corporate business that wants some stock video shot for a promo they have coming up. They want it in HD, so I'm guessing they'll be displaying in HD someplace. I have a lot of personal reasons I want a HD camera too, but money I can make from it to recover the investment is fine in...
