Since I'm talking about gaming vids and there's a ton of people here making vids, thought I'd ask. Is there a limit to how many times you can vote-up ("like") videos on YT? After voting so many times that they stop counting after a certain number. I'm subscribed to a lot of gaming...

This was just announced, latest update, but it's this guy's unbelievable gall and propensity for bullshit that blows my mind. From the forums: This has to be one of the more stupid ****ing methods I've ever heard in 20 years of gaming, for more reasons than I'm going to bother to mention...

What are people's thoughts on this so far from previews or the demo? Linearity made-up for by any brutal, enjoyable gameplay? Story/atmosphere actually impactful at all? Visuals mechanics, gameplay... thoughts? Maybe too scripted too much of the time for any replay value? I just found out...

Anyone else having serious (no pun intended) problems with SS3:BFE? Game keeps crashing, Windows telling me I "don't have enough memory", and I'm running 6GB Dominator, and have no problems with any other game in the world. There MUST be a serious memory leak in this game, but I don't have...

Looking for suggestions for a socket 775 (I have an E8600 3.33 laying around) board for a micro build I want to do that can also handle gaming. Need a solid micro 775 board, but seems hard to find anything truly reliable. Have a Sugo SG03-F case sitting around, so figured I'd do a fun...

Anyone interested in becoming part of a strictly adult Steam group? I'm starting a "strictly regulated" adult PC gaming group, with a full website to follow, that I will not let fall apart as so many other supposed adult gaming communities. Being "rowdy" is fine, as long as people are mature...

Does anyone have any ideas/leads what-so-ever as to a release date? I've just been seeing "summer 2011" listed for quite a while now, and my wife and I (as well as many others around here, I know) having been eagerly waiting!

Just mounted the VF3000F (for GTX 580/570) on my GTX 580 and, with Arctic Silver 5, for those who'd like to know the results... it's the most astounding cooling difference of any GPU cooler I've ever used, on any card, period... and I've been using Zalman GPU coolers since their inception...

Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm a lucky bastard who is married to a hot-ass, hardcore gaming chick, and whether your straight, bi, gay, trans or some other undefined sexuality, many people have their significant others with whom they game. So, for those who do, I thought I'd start a poll to...

IN WIN Dragon Rider. Does anyone own this case? If so, how is it with strictly air cooling compared to other more well-known cases? What do people think about the fan behind the CPU/mobo? Gimmick? Or actually helpful? Supports six 120mm fans on the side intake... really make a...

Far Cry 3, who knew... first footage, though I don't really know what to make of it myself. Some of the visuals look great, even through the low-res vid, but it doesn't seem like anything fantastic from what they've shown so far. Seems a bit "meh" to me. At least it's back to the jungles...

What would be the best method for cutting 1/8" thick acrylic windows? It's: this window/material. I have to cut four 120mm fan holes. I've looked around, and there seems to be a lot of mixed opinions, so I'm not sure how to go about it properly. I own a Dremel, so could I use that at...

Some vids (low-res, don't know why, but still looks killer) of some very cool skill altering effects with the use of Runestones: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/runestones-cluster-diablo-iii/714230 http://www.gametrailers.com/video/runestones-ray-diablo-iii/714231...

For any who have used them, what do you think of the concept behind the AP181? Is low CFM, but directed airflow, really superior? Would/does it make for actual better cooling? Here's a vid of Silverstone comparing their own fan... and a picture showing the concept as well: picture showing the...

Anyone else notice how massively TW2 pushes your GPU!? Holy shit! 99% GPU usage and have to crank my GTX 580's fan to 85 just to keep at around 75-79C! I almost friend my damn 580 at first, because I "only" had the fan at 70%, and the bastard hit 100C! I could smell something getting hot! Ha...

Starting at 31:09 in Gametrailer's podcast (video of gameplay), there's some detailed discussion by one of the guys who just spent a full 10 hours with the game. It's accompanied by video the entire time of gameplay, and if you continue to watch, it's him doing the same large area in a variety...

http://pc.ign.com/articles/116/1168092p1.html Sounds good to me, like they're quite versatile in terms of choosing their skills, armor etc... what do you think?

Alright, so just out of curiosity, I wanted to ask the following: - For new/upcoming games that would be available to purchase digitally via Steam, would you buy digitally through Steam? - Or do you still prefer to buy a hard copy of new games when they're released? With so many people...

Does anyone know whether or not the DEMCiflex filters restrict airflow to any degree? I recently moved from the Antec 1200 to the HAF X (also have the HAF 923, now my wife's system) and set it up with the top fans as intake to create a really solid positive pressure/airflow set-up that's...

I want to reinstall ME2 in order for character/story progress to transfer over to ME3, but have a few questions, for those who know: 1) Upon reinstalling ME2, can I just take my save game files, copy them into the save folder, and ME2 will pick-up on them? 2) Will those imported saves be...

Well, Steam is having a Halloween sale with both titles packaged together, and a sale on both titles individually. I played the hell out of L4D, even with my wife, though don't have it anymore. It seems to be a massive mixed-bag of opinions regarding L4D2, so I thought I'd ask for some...

I have some .flv files I have to transcode into MOV/WMV for business purposes. Can someone suggest any program(s) that do/does this without losing quality of the vids? I'll pay for it if I have to, and if the company is "safe"/legit, but quality has to remain in visuals and sound...

Wondering if anyone has any input on the RV02 case, just recently featured by Kyle as his build, in which he basically suggests it's the best air cooling case to-date. Currently using a HAF932, and I'm wondering: despite the nature physics of hot air rising, how much cooler can one expect to...

Can you buy someone the DLC when they don't have the Steam version of the game? Can it still be installed/played through Steam since it installs on their system? Don't know if since it's DLC, if you could still launch it properly from Steam...? Want to get the new DLC for someone as a...

The new Claptrap DLC and separate patch for the level increase were due out today, yet I've found nothing mentioning either on Steam or elsewhere. Obviously, the game never received that patch before the 28th, which is a bit disconcerting. Is there some delay with the DLC/patch that just...

New DLC is coming up, and wife and I looking for people (mature adults, but we don't give a shit if you're a little rowdy) to get together with. I've a few lvl 61 toons, and we're both Borderlands freaks... never get sick of it... logged almost 200 hours on PC, and that was after both...

Quick version: MSE detected the "FakeSpypro" trojan/virus ("Rogue/Win32/FakeSpypro" - different from the "JS/FakeSpypro?") and quarantined/suspended it immediately when it popped-up. I took the obvious step and had MSE delete it completely. So, does this mean MSE caught it in totality and I'm...

What is the actual method to backing up all saved games that have been installed via Steam? Also, how do you re-import them if you ever need to, and is there a simple method that always works without any problems? Just thought I should do this now and figure it out, since a friend's PC...

I'm speaking of capturing high quality gameplay directly from one PC to another for doing things such as reviews etc. What's the best way/best hardware and software to do this? There are internal and external cards, most of which I've found don't seem to have gotten great reviews. Internal or...

Anyone check this game out on Steam? Tried the demo and it was so much fun, I actually bought it, and my wife will be getting it as well. It's $5 on Steam, a top-down, arean-type zombie shooter and it's fun as hell. Even comes with co-op via LAN and online. Apparently released in 2009 and...

Is there a comprehensive tutorial somewhere on how to create a progress bar (while vid is playing, not a pre-loader), as well as adding time to a movie (playing time and movie length) which usually appears next to the progress bar? I've scoured YouTube and found good tuts on the other things...

Just checked-in on the forums after a few days, and saw a post about the same problem I'm having. I'm having a similar issue of "jaggies" and "moving shimmering" in the game FEAR as well and I don't know why. Anyone else experiencing this? I'd ask if it's a problem with my vid card, but since...

I need a little help understanding the following: - If you force AA&AF with nVidia's control panel, do you have to turn it off in-game? - Does one "cancel-out" the other? - If you do have the settings set in-game, but have higher forced settings with the control panel, does it work...

Hey all, I'm currently running only Window's firewall, after having what seems to be a bad stint with ZoneAlarm Pro. Though I like it's features, like password protection/privacy etc., I think it's been causing some conflicts with my system, possibly even my vid card (8800gtx) and it's also a...

Just downloaded a security update for .NET Framework 1.1 which, after install, gave me a pop-up box that stated the following: To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program. Name: Generic Host Process for Win32 Services Publisher: Microsoft Corporation I then got a...

Quick question: can heat ever, in any case, cause lag on a GPU? I've never lagged in F.E.A.R., for example, but I just changed from a massive Thermalright sink with a fan, back to the Zalman 9700 (used to run), and my temps actually went back up (idle @ approx. 50, load @ 80+!) on my...

Since so many knowledgeable people have helped with so many things here on [H], I'm dropping a bomb of a post about several issues I'm unclear about, but will try to make it as simply laid-out as possible: 1) Will DX10 cards still run DX9/on DX9 systems, just w/o the "benefits" of DX10? [H]...

For those who run their own sites (including [H] and who they host with) who would you suggest as being a few of the best, easy to use and most reliable web hosts? I've been using one in particular for the last couple of years, but want to know who else is around these days that's worth...

I'm running a Zalman 9700 (was running a 9500) on an Intel DBX975XBX2 mobo and C2D, and have it running off the board (3-pin). However, in this bios there are only two fan speed controls: off and slow, for fan speed moderation. On slow, the Zalman (both of them) make a slight "knocking"...

I'm looking for trustworthy and reliable hosts, and could use some direction. Looking for both game and Vent or TS host(s) who are known to be reliable and able to be trusted, that includes with canceling accounts if/when necessary. I'm currently using Clanwarz.com for hosting just...
