    20% Of Americans Use Internet 'Almost Constantly'

    Exactly. Even people using Netflix connected to a smart TV or playing an online game are using the internet whether or not they really realize it without taking it for granted. The internet of things is something a lot of people don't realize they are using all the time. Need an Uber? Using...

    Fallout 4

    I'm trying for 1920x1200 in this mode. Is it even possible? I've tried a bunch of stuff. I'm currently reinstalling the game from scratch. Rig is in sig. Older AMD 6950 2GB card.

    VSync is enabled by default. To disable read below: From the [H] homepage there is a video quality review: "On AMD GPUs going into the driver control panel and disabling VSYNC will not work here, it does nothing to the game. Instead what we must do is edit INI files within the folder for...

    How many old farts here stil play pc games?

    36 here. Recently got GTA5 on the PC. It's fun, but not a lot of time to play games much these days. Considering FO4, I had played FO3 and New Vegas a lot, as well as Skyrim. Wish I had the time more often!!

    AMD, Roy Taylor, the Nano, and the Press @ [H]

    We did run benchmarks constantly throughout the day, I just never thought of the warming process in a closed case because I personally did not use one as a quality engineer. I was told on day one to build a machine to benchmark on. Wasn't given a case. I tested for driver quality and to see if...

    AMD, Roy Taylor, the Nano, and the Press @ [H]

    I worked for AMD for a few months testing vid cards in various configurations, generally on open benches, not cased, just open horizontal mobos in most test scenarios. Never thought "warming up" a component was worthy of anything. How is that a thing?

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Just got the game today. Never seen or played on any console or PC. I wanted it to be a surprise when I could afford the game at some point. Just played for the first time on my rig in sig, left the graphics alone. I think I turned up the grass. I'm absolutely floored by the quality of this...

    Netflix CEO Predicts Broadcast TV's Death by 2030

    I love my OTA antenna! MeTV is pretty good. Plus lots of PBS and all the major networks, NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, CW, etc. Between that and Netflix I'm generally set, and only pay 9 bucks a month for virtually unlimited content. When I want a certain movie I'll either just to go the theater or...

    Getting a 9700 Pro to work on Win 7?

    Anyone know of a driver I can get for this old computer that's meant for XP? It's an older Toshiba Satellite (P30?)? Every driver I try that says win 7 compatible won't work. Gives me an error "this driver is for XP/2000 only", something like that. The last one I tried said it was an Omega...

    SSD or HDD as my new primary system drive?

    I love my Samsung 840 Pro 256. Have had it almost a year no problems. Just make sure you read about making sure TRIM is set up on it. Make sure ACHI is set in the BIOS for the SSD to ensure smooth performance. It's a really good improvement over mechanical drives for your boot/software. And...

    Is Trim working?

    Oh yeah, does the RST service have to be running? It always says it's not running. Has for a long time. Task Mgr won't let me start it.

    Is Trim working?

    Well it's my main W7 OS on the Samsung drive. I'll see about checking it. I almost want to reformat everything and start over with W8.1. I'll wait til this other program finishes first I guess though.

    Anything worth upgrading to from a 840 Pro?

    LOL, when games are taking up 20-30+ GB it's easy to forget the older times.

    Is Trim working?

    But what's up with that damn program? BTW I didn't pay the 30 bucks for it. I'm using it as a "trial" since my normal Win7 defrag quit on me.

    Yes, I return 0 there.

    I have always had the notification that "RST service is not running". I remember trying to fix that a while back and forgot about it. Yes I know that sounds plain lazy.

    Is Trim working?

    AHCI mode is set in the BIOS. I just wonder why that utility (O&O Defrag) is giving an error. Is there anything else I should check to verify that TRIM is working properly? The only reason I got another program was because my Win 7 defrag isn't responding. Just wanted to defrag an older drive...

    Is Trim working?

    Samsung 840 Pro 256 here. Had the drive for a while now. Anyway, I wanted to defrag a different hard drive. I know not to defrag SSD's. So in W7 64 my standard defrag tool isn't responding. Restart the machine, still not responding. So I got this program O&O Defragmenter. It's working...

    I'm guessing that the Republicans had a voice in this, and the "compromise" was to get the cheapest bid on the IT side of this whole thing. It's not working. Get it together! Congress sucks, the White House sucks. Agree on something for once! Spend the money where it needs to be spent. This...
