I got a G27 steering wheel so I could use it for these games (to replace my xbox360 controller which I was previously using).

    3-D Giving You a Headache? You’re Not Alone

    I was really disappointed by clash of the titans 3d. It was my first and only 3d cinema event. Don't get me wrong - I game in 3d all the time and have a 3ds. But post processing into 3d just sucks.

I have a lot of space so I would like to rip them losslessly i.e. with no compression and at full resolution. What would be the best...

    Tiger Woods 11 move compatible on ps3

    I live in the uk and in my local store there are several copies of tiger woods 11 but none have the "move compatible" sign on the front. It was my impression that this game supported move. Is it the case the game needs a simple update to activate the move features? The woman at the counter...

    3d vision and 3-way sli problem - low frame rates

    I have 3 GTX 480s in sli with which I am gaming at 1920x1080. I max out frame rates (120 on my monitor) in most games. Problem is as soon as I activate 3d vision the frame rates plummit to in the 20s. Interestingly this didn't happen when I had 2-way sli. I have seen similar problems on youtube...

    I am putting together a system with 2 GTX480s in SLI. I was wondering if the 8800GTX is enough not to bottleneck the set-up or would GTX 260 be better? I would prefer to keep the 260 for another rig. thanks

    Does a physx card need to be connected with an SLI bridge?

    I am currently running two GTX260's in SLI on a X58 motherboard. They sit in the PCI slots 1&3. I have an old 8800GTX which I am hoping to use as a dedicated physx card in PCI slot 2. My question is do I need to connect all 3 cards in 3-way sli or can the 8800GTX sit on it's own?
