The long awaited mod to STALKER:SoC is being released April 26. It's not the commercial,GSC backed release the developers had been hoping for,due to the actions of some jackass who leaked an earlier build,but at least we'll soon get the chance to get back to the Zone...

Been having nothing but trouble since setting up an Xbox One for my son. During set up,I successfully activated a prepaid 12 month Live Gold account. A bit later,I received an e-mail showing my account had been charged for the membership that I had already paid for when I bought the prepaid...

Can anyone suggest a good game controller for the Asus Transformer tablet? Got one for my son for Christmas,and thought an arcade type controller would be a good add on. Thought the ION iCADE cabinet would be a nice one,but I can't seem to find any clear info on whether it would work on an...

My son wants a tablet for Christmas,and I'm totally unfamiliar with the portable market. My basic requirements are a 10" screen,preferably under $400,probably used mostly for web use and media viewing.

Is anyone else having problems viewing HardOCP's homepage with Firefox? Since last night,all I get is a black page. I can view the forums fine,and no other site has this problem.

My system came overclocked from the builder,and has been stable from the day I bought it. I'd like to add another 6GB of memory,I have a Dominator kit identical to the one installed. I'm not very familiar with overclocking,my question is,can I just install the memory as is,or will changes need...

Just installed a GTX 680 in my system and I'm having problems with Windows hanging up on boot up. I'm using Vista Home Premium 64. It gets as far as the loading bar,then all I get is a blank screen with the mouse pointer. I can run Windows in Safe Mode,it detects the GTX 680,and I tried...

Let's hope the anti-videogame crowd don't use this game as ammunition. http://androidnewscenter.com/index.php/2012/02/23/hobohunt-google-android-app-under-fire

I'm looking for a good,reliable external USB drive for storage. You can leave Western Digital's drives off the list,after a month of frustrations,intrusive built in programs,and just getting the damn thing to work,the My Book Essential drive I bought died completely,and judging from the posts...

Anyone see this interview? http://www.shacknews.com/article/69784/single-player-only-games-gone-in-three-years-says-veteran My opinion is the guy is an idiot. And a lazy idiot at that. Multi-player games don't require the effort,time,or creativity that single player games do,since most people...

Are there any mods out there for Fallout 3 that add new missions that are worth trying out? I've just about finished all the DLC's released and wondered if there were any really good ones before I move on to New Vegas.

Has anyone found a mod that works that corrects the constant crosshair swaying when using scoped weapons? It's the one thing in the game that annoys me,even with high weapons skills the sniper rifle shakes too much to be of much value.

It's been long time since I've updated the drivers for my card (currently using 186.18),haven't had any major issues with games so I didn't feel the need. But I'd like to get the best performance possible with this card before upgrading becomes necessary. Which driver set is the most effective...

After spending the last few months playing the STALKER series,I've just about stretched it out as far as I can,playing through all three games and the various mods and conversions available. With the next installment not due until 2012,I need a substitute to tide me over.The problem is that...

Has anyone caught this on YouTube? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2ZXSzaUIBQ For a fan made film it's pretty good,at only 3 minutes in length they capture more of the game's look and spirit than both of the awful adaptations Hollywood put out combined.

Anyone know where I can find detailed instructions for removing the front air filters for cleaning? I bought my system pre-built,and the Antec manual is next to useless.This case has so many screws everywhere and the manual is too vague to know which ones to remove.

Any opinions on the most reliable Forceware version? I'm using 186.18 with my GTX 285,with mixed results.They worked well with Crysis and Wolfenstein,but I've gotten some freeze-ups with the Halflife 2 episodes.I've been out of gaming for a while and have a lot of games to catch up on,is...

Decided to install NTune to monitor temps,but it causes a bsod and restart in Vista 64.Figure I'll give Rivatuner a try,but first how the hell do you uninstall Ntune? The program itself has no uninstall option,and it doesn't show up anywhere on the list with Vista's "remove software" option.I...

Trying to decide on a card for a new system.Both of these cards are in the price range I'm looking for,and are too close in performance to make a real difference,so I'll look at other factors.From what I've seen,the 4870 temps are such that I'd probably want something better than the standard...

Just wondering if this card really exists or if Newegg screwed up. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129113 I haven't seen a dual fan Visiontek 4870 anywhere else,every search result for the model number shows the standard single fan version.It looks more like the...

I have an old Compaq Presario 5000 I'm fixing up for my son to use.It has a GeForce 2 MX card that's seen better days.Anyone have recommendations for a better card,old or new,that is AGP and needs no more than a 250W psu? Can't upgrade the power supply,it's proprietary(hell,most of this machine...

I'm planning on pairing this board with a Q6700 and Corsair Dominator DDR2 1066 memory.Though it only officially supports DDR2 800 ram,I've heard that unofficially it can run 1066 ram with no problem.How true is this?

I'm about to pull the trigger on this build from AVA,any advice appreciated. Socket 775 Core 2 Desktop Processors Core™ 2 Quad Q6700 Quad-Core 2.66GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 8MB (2 x 4MB) L2 Cache, 65nm, 65W, EM64T EIST VT XD, Retail CPU Coolers Ultra-120 eXtreme CPU Heatsink, Socket...

Need some recommendations for a good 20" LCD for gaming and internet use.From what I've read here,I gather that 22" displays aren't that great,and a good 24" would kill my budget.

I'm trying to decide on a board for a Q9450.I liked the feedback that the IP35Pro was getting with the Q6600,but it may not be the best as far as overclocking goes with the 9450 due to it's lower multiplier.I've seen very little buzz on the QuadGT,does it live up the Pro's performance?Am I right...

I was waiting for the Q9450 to become available in systems at AVA,I knew they'd be more expensive than the Q6600 - but $360 more?At their pricing for the 6600,that makes it $660! Guess I'll have to go back to choosing between the 6600 or E8400.:(

Are there any good gaming keyboards out there for left handers?Standard keyboards have the directional keys on the right side,which works for me since I use the mouse left handed.But all the good gaming keyboards I've seen have the directional and other gaming specific keys on the left side.

Guy got this card in a system he ordered from IBUYPOWER (I tried to warn him) and I can't find info on it anywhere.It's supposed to be 512 MB,but I thought the 8600 GTS was 512,this card is marked 8600 GT.It also lacks the connection point for a SLI bridge,yet as far as I can find out the only...

Anyone heard more on this board? http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=9017 SLI and Crossfire support on the same board?Interesting option,if it works.

Finally got my bonus at work,about ready to pull the trigger on a new system.It'll be mainly for gaming and Internet use.This is what I've come up with so far.Any suggestions welcomed. GAMING PC, Core 2 Duo SLI Gaming System $2260.24 $2260.24 INTEL, Core™ 2 Duo E6600 Dual-Core, 2.4GHz...

I've seen the Thermaltake and Lian-Li cases before,but the Pyramid and Drum cases are unusual to say the least. http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/03/09/four_unique_atx_cases_compared/

For anyone who has this case,two questions.Does it cool as well as those huge fans would suggest?And will a 8800 GTX card fit in it?

I'm planning on getting a new system soon,and really can't come to a decision on a motherboard.My main concern is an SLI board with stability and upgrade potential.I'm not planning on overclocking immediately,but might get into it later on to extend the life of my system.There seems to be as...

On a smaller scale,a story has unfolded in threads at ResellerRatings that has similarities to the Monarch debacle.It concerns a company called Flawless Computers,who started advertising there,complete with glowing reviews by customers.Well,it turns out they were paying people to post those...

I'm planning a new Core 2 system,most likely with the eVGA 680i board(if the SATA issues appear to be fixed). My choices for memory are OCZ or CORSAIR,is there a clear difference in quality and dependability between the two,or any issues with Core 2 compatability?
