    Buying a new 3*27" setup.

    Thanks for the replies guys! Sorry I haven't updated my setup, budget isn't an issue, I now have a ATI HD6970, should I put a second one in? Or grab the newer techs? Thanks again! :) 3x 2560 in games might be pretty hardcore hey? I am excited but.

    Buying a new 3*27" setup.

    Hey guys, just wondering peoples opinions on what I should buy, I want 2560 res and preferably good colour without too much calibration as I find myself editing photos fairly regularly. I was looking at the Samsung s27b970? Thoughts? Cheers

    Are OCZ Vertex 4 SSDs still bad?

    I have a Vertex 1 that dies to the point of destructive reflash once every 3 months. 2x Samsung 830's are on their way to me.

    Wow because the US is so much better... Thank Christ I am in Australia, it isn't perfect but it is a hell of a lot better. It is like the US criticising England's economy. :/

    Think I got hacked?

    I would assume that if a site that millions of people used daily had any overly big problems with hacking, etc, then it would come to light. I am not saying facebook is safe, far from it, but I think it is more the ads (That I don't see) and the apps that make it unafe, using it for friends...

    Think I got hacked?

    What is your reasoning for that? Thanks guys, well I use adblock plus etc and don't use facebook games or aps. I understand that being online and going to sites has an inherent risk, I guess I was saying that I wouldn't consider my actions 'high risk', what made me think it was sus, is that...

    Think I got hacked?

    Hi guys, so I know this seems stupid. but I am a littl ebit paranoid I have been hacked, I am not what you would call a prime candidate, clean system, don't browse unsafe sites, etc etc. I run windows firewall and microsoft security essentials. I am behind a Billion Bipac 7800N modem router...

    Hacker?

    Sorry for the late reply and resurection of the post, I started back at uni, so it's been hectic, It was a around 2gig, I am on win7 64 bit, and just to add to the info, any torrent I have downlaoded ends in mkv or avi, not .exe, if you catch my drift. So after a hit of paranoia I cant see...

    Steam Deals! (Jun 24 2010)

    JC2 looks great, but theres no justifying $25 to me when I have a back log so big, it will be down to $15 before I am ready to play it I think. The past few deals havent been so great :/

    Steam Deals! (Jun 24 2010)

    Offering my 2 cents on Arma2, I am going to wait for a better deal, after hours of reading I dont think I will get $20 out of it, let alone the $50 for both, however maybe once they come down a bit more I will see value, simply put, there is hundreds of other games at great prices I have to play...

    5D Mark II

    the 5dmark 2 is an amazing camera, and the 7d is amazing too, but youd be crazy to go the 7D unless you needed the faster fps, or the higher AF points/time, which if everyone is honest with themself, most people dont, inface, i cant remember the last time i used AF :S, if its sports you want...

    I was going to write a long post about this but I will summarise,"was simply reporting the information that we believed to be accurate" is irrelavant, be thankful D&H is'nt persuing this further.
