    Hardocp links

    This is more about the main site and not the forums. I really enjoy reading the articles, but unsure of why I get redirected to another HardOCP page that has the same summary as the main page. Than I have to click yet another page to get to the article. Its annoying. The expectation is when...

    U.S. Government, Military to get Secure Android Phones

    I came in figuring to see more positive comments. Oh well, this was better than hearing the US has decided we needed IP(ads/ods/hones). Open source, yes. I am sure some high speed will figure out how to root it, and that phone will fall of the net just like the computers that are cracked by...

    Corsair "Barebones" Christmas Giveaway!

    Corsair has some of the best customer service; their excellence in the PSUs, cases and RAM are leading edge and the bar which alot of other manufacturers measure themselves against; attention to not only detail, but what the customer is looking for in cases. Corsair is my goto in memory, cases...

    HP Says Cats Void Your Warranty

    Am going to agree with the above. Now where have I seen that the cat hair was the cause for the repair, just that the computer was sent in for non-descript repair and return due to biohazard. If your that violently allergic to cat hair or dander, your in the wrong line of work. I am also in...

    Battlefield 3 DLC Trailer

    I would say "welcome to the world of modern online gaming" and find reputable gaming community servers, like Tacticalgamer.net (TG) but you seem more interested in complaining about the game than giving it a fair shake. I was very upset with this game, until I upgraded my hardware. Now I...

    BF3: kicked from eGO server for a wirty dord!

    I say "congrats" to the eGO guys for sticking to their guns. Alot of the larger community gaming servers also have Rules of the Server section in their forums. I know the Tactical Gamers servers do, and ask that if your going to be a regular, sign the thread. But this is a community of...

    BF3: kicked from eGO server for a wirty dord!

    I am a member of the Tacticalgamers community and have been for years. The rules on all three of our servers are language free. We warn, warn warn. Kicks are rare, unless your an ass. But the community makes the rules, you curse in chat or on the TS servers and you will be warned, warned...

    Ice Cream Sandwich Face Unlock Feature Compromised

    I would love to see software that would use a combo of drivers license scan and pin. This is the same setup that is used on government computers. The biggest issue is it takes about 5 minutes to transfer files from one phone to another at many cell phone stores or at home. So I return to the...

    American Airlines Replacing Paper Maps with iPads

    There are better ways for any corporation to spend the money they claim they are not making on air travel. If they/ you are not using paper maps, then that would tell me that you dont need a $600 IPad paper weight. This just screams "BAD IDEA" to me. Also, this comment explains why the Air...

    Antec Six Hundred 600 Gaming Case

    Antec has been resting on its laurels, as of late. With nothing really new or improved, just rehashing the same cases with new bezels or exterior colors. "The Six Hundred's front I/O panel consists of three USB 3.0 ports," this was on the fourth page of the review, reading is awesome. There...

    Modern Warfare 3 Trailer

    CoD hasnt been coded for PCs in a long time. It is ported, and poorly at that, for PCs. I havent really seen a bad BF series game yet. The maps are generally extensive, expansive and dont lend to the same fire fights being replayed over and over again after a few weeks or months of game play...

    Modern Warfare 3 Trailer

    Truer words.... I am surprised more people haven't echoed this sentiment. This is [H]ardOCP, not HardPS2 or HardXbox. I boycotted MW2 due to lack of dedicated servers, IWs general lack of interest in its PC gamers, and either misinformation or straight out lies about what MW2 was going to...

    Newegg Customer Service

    Thats interesting, that you have been waiting for 18 days. I am in the middle east, am in the military, ordered RAM twice from Newegg and got both in under 14 days. Throw in that the military had to not only receive it from shipping company but then had to wait for our unit mail handlers. I...

    Win 7's Infection Rates 5 Times Lower Than XP

    Thank you, stole the words right out of my mouth. I know some continue to use XP for their various reasons. I dont see an issue with that and would not fault a person for continuing to run XP. Its their money and their decision to use outdated OSs. My personal experience has led me to...

    Apple Faces Another Data Location Lawsuit

    and then a someone gets hurt doing something that common sense should have told them not to do, they sue the pants off the company. Then they are outlawed. ;) That is an awesome video. He was on another television show not long ago. Cant recall the show, but it was pretty slick.

    Young padawan, you have much to learn about the [H]ard side of the force. There are as many reasons to OC as there are users that OC. Some for bragging rights, much like a gear head and his/her car. Some OC to boost performance with lesser priced parts. Some OC just to see how far they can...
