    Going from a S3 to a Nexus5, what will I miss?

    So, over the weekend someone dropped my phone and ended up breaking the screen on my S3. I'm not wanting to subsidize a new phone by extending my Sprint contract, so I ended up ordering a Nexus 5 right from Google Play. I know the Nexus series of phones are stock Google, but what are the...

    6850 is downclocking, how to stop it?

    Hey guys, I've been annoyed by this strange issue since I got my 6850 at the end of January this year. I finally tracked it down to that when a youtube video is playing on the secondary monitor the card clocks down (300Mhz GPU, down from 820Mhz courtesy of MSI Afterburner) regardless of what...

    Does anybody else have Guitar Hero?

    Hey guys, one of my friends bought a Gateway HTPC with Windows XP Media Center edition on it. With plenty of trial and error I got it to pass dolby digital over the optical so that is all cool, but I'm wondering if anyone has hacked into the Media Center shell itself to change things...
