    Intel Making Chips for Panasonic

    The linked article makes it sound like just a fab deal, not Intel actually designing and making chips for Panasonic, yet Intel just fabbing up Panasonic's designs.

    Xbone Pass Through?

    I'm using a DirecTV HR24 HD DVR and when I run it through the Xbox One, I get picture degradation (very noticeable on red colors) and the audio is not synced to the picture. Not going through the Xbox One, everything is fine.

    BF4 PS4 vs One Footage Coming

    Research a parallel vs. series hybrid implementation and get back to us. You also might want to read a bit about the LaFerrari and McLaren P1. If you can read and/or write to both the DDR3 and ESRAM at the same time, then the bandwidth can be added together to get the total, if you can...

    360 Blue Ray?

    Actually, it can't. From engadgetHD. " Sure, the PS3 supports Doby TrueHD decoding internally, but it lacks a big one, DTS HD. For whatever reason, the PS3 does not support bitstream output -- no, not even TrueHD -- only PCM, and since there's no DTS HD decoder built in, that leaves out...

    Two more major vendors kick HD-DVD while it's down

    So, did the biggest package always win? BTW, shouldn't you be in a fab or something making your own cpus instead of taking a package design classes?

    Generic eBay batteries, any good?

    I'm looking to get one of the generic eBay batteries to replace the battery for my Compaq laptop and wondering if any one has experience with them. They are significantly cheaper than genuine HP replacement batteries, so I'm wondering how the performance is. Even if I have to buy one of the...

    Good luck with that. Even the current Core 2 chips have 124 listed issues in the errata section of the spec. document for the Core 2.

    NPD Sales for October

    It's surprising that the PS3 verision of GHIII couldn't get in the top 10, if it could have sold half of what the PS2 with guitar did, it would have been 135,500 and enough to be ahead of Fifa.

    Super Mario Galaxy Impressions Thread

    I wish I had Wii to play this game! I've been playing all the older Marios and I'm really excited for Galaxy, but I need a Wii first and don't know if I can justify it for one game. I wish they would come out with a new side scrolling Mario. New Super Mario Bros. on DS is awesome and...

    Your favorite console controller...

    The D-pad on the 360 controller can be very easily fixed. It's not a problem with the D-pad itself, but the controller shell. I've fixed the D-pad on all my 360 controllers and it works great. I don't understand why MS hasn't updated the molds to fix it yet.

    Halo 3 actually runs 640p no matter what.

    The 360 GPU is plenty powerful, the problem is that it's crippled with a 128-bit memory bus. Take an 8800GTX and cut 256 bits off the bus to bring it down to 128 bits and tell me it's going to perform well in higher resolutions.

    Has the PS3 turned the tide?

    I find it funny how these people are saying the Xbox has more PC games, yet a lot of people want to play UT3 on the PS3 because they can use a keyboard and mouse. That's kind of ironic. Also, did you ever think that a lot of the games come to the PC because they sold so well on the Xbox...

    360 August price cut confirmed?

    They should drop the 20GB HD price to $50 if only the premium is being cut, as any smart consumer would not buy a core if it stays at $299, since it would still cost them $399 if they bought the core and 20GB. Plus, that's Microsoft's justification for the HD prices, 20GB = price difference...

    Gamecube and DS game recommendations

    I know I'm a little behind the times, but I just bought a Gamecube this past week and wondered what must have games are for the platform. I'm also going to be picking up a DS soon to take with me on travel and would like recommendations for the DS as well. So far I have Animal Crossing and...

    360 Elite motherboard. Does less capactiors & transistors = 65nm?

    Due to the physical die sizes being the same, I'm going to have to say with near 100% confidence they are not using a smaller process. The whole reason to go to a smaller process in a situation like this is to get more chips/wafer, resulting in lower costs. I see no reason why the die would be...

    HD DVD Player Sales Top 100,000 In US

    Are you sure about that? HD DVD and Blu-ray have completely different physical properties between the two disks. HD DVD is built like a standard DVD with the data layer .6mm from the bottom, where as Blu-ray has the data layer .1 mm from the bottom of the disk. Plus, you have different beam...

    Crackdown.Fun so far but annoying co-op problem..

    Are you trying to join your friends, or random people? If random people, it could be that they just don't want to play with anyone. I haven't had any problems playing co-op, and I've played a lot with multiple friends.

    How many Xbox360s have you burned through?

    I agree. I think there is something else causing the units to fail for most of the people that have gone through 2 or more units, likely the power supply. I'm sure some have gotten faulty units right off the bat, but if you have gone through multiple consoles, it makes me think something else...

    Xbox live disconnects and drops out of games

    What router do you have? Some will have firmware that will make them Xbox Live compatible. I'd try updating the firmware and see if it helps. If your router has a game mode, make sure it is enabled.

    New Xbox 360 (w/ larger HDD and HDMI) PIC!

    I agree. If MS would just allow us to hook up USB hard drives, there would be no need for a larger on board drive for me. If I could store demos and downloaded video to a USB hard drive, I'd be all set.

    New Xbox 360 (w/ larger HDD and HDMI) PIC!

    How many of the people complaining about this actually have 1080p sets that only accept 1080p inputs via HDMI? Other than convenience of losing a few cables for others with HDMI compliant sets, they are the only ones capable of truly taking advantage of an HDMI output at this point in time...

    Boeing Fires Employee whose Laptop was Stolen

    Digital Trends: Optical HD Battle May Be Over: HD DVD Wins

    From an economical perspective, HD-DVD makes more sense. As others have said, it's more similar to normal DVD and the manufacturing process is similar as well. From purely a capacity standpoint, Bluray is the obvious winner, but both formats have plenty of capacity for HD movies. Yet...

    WTB: Working Canopus Voodoo2 Pure3D II

    I'm looking for a working Canopus Pure3D II. One of mine apparently died and I'd like to get another one so I can still use SLI in my old gaming rig. Anybody have one they want to sell? If you have other voodoo 2's, I may be interested in buying 2, but prefer the Canopus to match the one...
