    Strange noise when turning on and off Xbox 1 (video included)

    Since that last update this has been happening. It sounds like the optical drive is checking for a disc or something, but I don't have one in, and the sound is totally new aswell. It sounds like a single "chug". I'm pretty sure it's not the hard drive. I bought the console on march 11 and...

    C70 fan orientation with H80i?

    How should the fans be set up for this case with an H80i? I was thinking something like this: Two intake in the front, two exhaust on the top, two intake on the side panel, h80i in exhaust. Also, since I don't have any dust filters for the side intakes, could they be exhaust?

    Any good shooters besides BF3?

    I played the crap out of BF3 a while ago, col. 100, everything unlocked, etc.... It seems like there is nothing else to play though. I am playing Hawken a little bit and crysis 3 was disappointing. I have only played 1 COD game (MW3 on 360 for an hour) and it was "OK", maybe it was because I was...

    PS3 - Ethernet port "activity light" not blinking?

    I used wifi on my super slim ps3 for a few weeks, then was able to run an Ethernet cable to the back instead. I went through the connection set up again and changed it from WiFi to Ethernet cable, but from what I can tell the activity light is not working on the port. I have a nagging feeling...

    Random question here: I was looking at the PS4 specs and noticed that it will have 8GB of DDR5 memory. I know this memory is used on current GPU's, but why is our system memory only DDR3?

    Skyrim and the "save-bloat" issue

    First, I will ask my question: Has or will Bethesda fix this issue? If you aren't familiar with this issue I will try to explain it, or at least how I have interpreted it after reading many forum posts on it. Basically Skyrim has a problem with save game files becoming larger and larger...
