I need a new game. I'm thinking its about time for an immersive RPG. Something budget friendly (which probably rules out Witcher 3). Maybe something that allows for creativity?

:( Please help! I've tried everything. This is an ongoing, randomly recurring error I've been fighting for years. Now on my second copy of Windows. I'm on my second graphics card. Switched from nVidia to AMD. My second motherboard, switched from DFI to MSI. My second power supply...

Whats the best bang-for-the-buck you can get for $180 - $199 or so these days?

Guys, I need your help. My baby is crashing. And I can't figure out why. I don't know if it is related to the Windows TDR, timeout detection recovery, crash that seems to happen from time to time. I'm sort of stuck. Lately, whenever I play any game, I get a frozen 10 seconds, a blank...

Me and the mates are in our 30's now. We've played lots of games and are now looking for the next one. Often times it involves getting everyone on Skype with a few beers, logging into a game together and having a good time. Whats something out there we may not have tried, might be under...

I had some old Logitech z560's that I've been using for probably 10 years or so. They have finally died. Last week, they released the magic blue smoke and produce sound no more. (moment of silence ---------- ) So, what's next? I bought those on some sale for right at $100 when they came...

Do they exist? What are my options? Obviously, you get what you pay for, but what is the current budget king? Alternatively, what is just a good keyboard for gaming (FPS style) that doesn't cost an arm-and-a-leg?

**deleted** I did some searching and got impatient and just clicked BUY. :) MSI GD65

Something that me and a small group of friends can pop on and play for a bit. not something that requires tons of time investment or needs to be online for 4 hours solid. I don't need another WoW raid night. Currently playing: Skyrim Diablo 3 (occassionally) Smite Kerbal Space...

I'm so confused by Gigabyte's naming convention. What is what? What is the difference between D3H, D3HP and UD3H? And then I have to assume that UD4H and UD5H are in the same family, just with more features (and a higher pricetag).

Voltage requirments for ram on z87 motherboards ... what is the deal? For example, the same memory (G.Skill) with the exact same specs is basically the same price. One is listed as 1.25v the other at 1.5v. I'm building a rig for stability and longevity. Is there a difference? Is one...

I'm upgrading my system, and so I need a new waterblock. I currently have a DTek Fuzion v2 mounted on an LGA 775 (p35) socket motherboard. First off THIS exists. It is a mounting bracket to make my current DTek Fuzion block work on socket 1155 motherboards, which means it should also work...

conveniently left on his dad's nightstand... :)

I'm getting TDR errors. I did not have any issues when I was on WinXP. I switched to Win7 last year and started getting these graphics driver Timeout Detection Recovery errors. I have purchased a brand new video card in January, and I'm STILL getting TDR errors. It is not an...

Lately, I've been getting errors: display driver stopped working. Previously, it wasonly during gaming sessions. Now it happens on web browsing. in fact, I had to type this on my phone, because my computer can't stay up long enough without crashing. This is brand new. never had crashing...

I want a new PowerSupply. I should have gone modular 4 years ago when I got my last one, but I don't remember exactly why I didn't. I'm ready for a modular power supply. I want one in the 850W to 1000W range, just because ... well, if your going to do it, why not do it up big, right...

I'm on a P35 motherboard and I can't tell if it is PCI 2.0 or not. I'm confident it isn't 3.0, but everything should be backward compatiible anyway. Right? DFI LanParty P35 T2RS It still is a great motherboard, and my righ still rocks pretty hard. But, as it has been 4 years, it is time...

I'm currently using a 9800GTX+ on my rig, an Intel Core2Duo 2.53, o/c'd to 3.18 currently (max at 4.0, but usually keep it at the 3 ghz range for daily use). I'm debating if now is a decent time to look at upgrading the video card. If so, would I see any significant gains at a moderate...

Any help? It was working 3 days ago, burned a movie just fine. Now, I can't burn anything. It gives me an I/O error. I tried updating the driver, but nothing. (now I have to reactive WinXP, great :( ) I need some tips as to why my DVD burner stopped. As you can see in my sig this is...

I've been playing a ton of racing games lately, and I need a good FPS. But, I won't be doing a lot of online FPS multiplayer, so this is strictly for single player. Last single-player FPS I bought was COD4. Great game, but a little short on the single-player side. What should I look...

I hate that Windows sets up my home / personal computer like a network. I don't have multiple users, I don't want to be the "administrator", I don't want it to save folders for separate names. I just want it to be MY computer. Just one person. One family. I don't need to separate out any...

I'm needing to pick up some 3.5" to 5-1/4" harddrive mounting rails. Sure, I could go all high-class and pick up some super fan cooler thingies or whatever. But really, I just want those little metal brackets that hold them in place. Seems all anybody sells are the fancy fan brackets...

Does anyone make a "FUN" flight game anymore? All I can find seem to be are true hardcore SIMs with some history lessons thrown in. (PS: I've heard about H.A.W.X., is it good?) Is there something for the casual crowd who wants to play some air combat games? There are plenty of great...

And it still stands up. What a fun game. Tons of personality. Are there any high-quality texture mods or anything out there I need to be downloading? Anything spicy to try?

I can get a copy for $79.99 at my sister's university (wish I'd kept my university ID after all these years), but I hear rumor has it that there may be another $30 offering somewhere. When Windows 7 first came out, students could pick up an Upgrade copy of Win7 Pro for $29.99. I didn't move...

Does the Windows7 ISO you download contain both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions? I know when you buy the retail disk it contains both, but I have concerns about the ISO. My brother is taking the plunge and has concerns about some of his older peripherals/software for business use. If he...

Stupid question - sorry. If I buy a brand new harddrive, can I use my Win 7 Upgrade disk to install Windows? I want to move from my current WinXP to Win7. However, I also want to get a new harddrive at the same time. My preferred method of doing this would be to remove the old harddrive...

Is this a good idea? Is this possible? I've not used any 64bit OS before (does Commodore64 count?) and I have not dug into the details... so I'm getting started. With Windows7 around the corner, I figured I'd get on the information wagon and figure out what I need. Can I just get the...

I am running a copy of Windows XP that I "borrowed" from my father's business and I want to purchase a legal copy of Windows 7 upgrade... ... does this give me a new legitimate CD key that I can now use? I do NOT like not having a truly legal copy of Windows. I don't mind paying money...

When I scroll through my inventory, I have a missile launcher but it has no ammo. When I find new ones on the ground, it won't let me drop the old one for the new ones. It won't give me ammo. Nothing. And there are several times when I need to blow things up (ie: helicopters). I'm...

Weird thing going on... I'm in the beginning stages of Crysis, and I''ve met the lady that we are supposed to rescue. Then the two tanks roll in. I grab the rocket launcher, and blow up both tanks... 3 rockets apiece. Boom, dead. Then.... nothing? I walked back where Psycho is with the...

I'm currently using a normal cell phone plus a Dell Axim (windows mobile) pda. The Axim does everything I need, except phone calls. I'm looking to upgrade to a new smartphone/pda phone. I was originally looking at the HTC Pro and now the Blackberry Curve. However, my provider (ATT) is...

Turn your sound on. Its not great sound, but its much better with. http://armorgames.com/play/2619/the-game The Game. Insanely perfect. I just found it by looking through random games on Armorgames.com and I thought "sure, why not?" and I'm so glad I did.

http://armorgames.com/play/3307/death-vs-monstars Death vs. Monstars Its actually kind of fun and cute. You shoot things and avoid things and buy power-ups. Its quirky in that you have to aim opposite of where you want to shoot.

http://www.gamefudge.com/Governor-of-Poker Its Texas Hold 'Em all the way. Frustrating as hell, but addicting. It can get repetitive, obviously, since its just poker-poker-poker-poker. But, it is a great way to play Texas Hold 'Em by yourself.

http://deadwhale.com/play.php?game=865 A slick little game. Hover your mouse to collect magnets and create magnet towers. Don't get too close to magnets of different colors so that your tower is only one color. Fun, and a little addicting.

http://armorgames.com/play/2765/world-wars Yeah, kind of like RISK. Much simpler. But, definitely fun. :)

Is installing WinXP on a laptop any different than on a desktop? My wife's Inspiron has gotten buggy.... lots of internet usage of her and her sister's I think has led to some spyware/virus that's just gunked it up. Its needed a fresh install for a while, but I've been putting it off...

I've never played WoW... I've never played ANY mmorpg. I was going to try out Conan, but they I backed out after some of the poorer reviews came out. Now that LotR:Online expasion is relased, I'm wondering if its a good time to try it out. I'm not a fan of spending money every month to play...

http://armorgames.com/play/2084/epic-war Tons of fun. Send out your armies, Middle-Earth style, to attack opponent's castle while preventing them from getting at yours. Everything is upgradable. One little quirk.... you can replay any level without any EXP penalty. So, its almost...
