So I have somewhat of a dilemma when it comes to my current gaming setup(s). I have two gamings rigs right now. One will be hooked up to my 4k TV for living room 4k gaming and the other will be in my office for better mouse and keyboard gaming. Really the only games I play on mouse and keyboard...
Hey Guys,
I just got done updating my rig a little with another 980ti and a new power supply. I upgraded my setup with playing Witcher 3 in 4k in mind. I played it some with 1 980ti settings maxed at 4k and I would get around 30fps. I saw YouTube videos though of people getting 50+ FPS so I...
Hey guys,
I currently game @ 4K with my 980ti and X5650 setup with great results. My X5650 is OC to 4ghz and has been a great upgrade.
Lately though I have the upgrade itch to step up to a mini ITX build. I currently have a Storm Scout case that was great for many years but even though it has...
I changed to NVidia GPUs recently and have been meaning to get rid of these cards.

So my pc is still plenty fast for most things but I leave it on all day to record tv. Instead of building another computer I've decided to make mine silent.
The #1 goal here is to have a silent pc. I don't plan on overlooking. Here is my current setup:
-5850s in CF (probably going to replace...
So I currently have two 5850s in CF and it is too loud for me. I keep my PC on all the time and was looking into building or buying another desktop for media center recordings but instead decided to try and just make my computer quieter. My PS is a SeaSonic 650W X650 Gold.
I run my games at...

I know Android has not had full-blown multitasking like the PlayBook or a PC but I've had an interesting experience with my HTC One X.
I just picked up the HTC One X last week and the thing is awesome, blazing fast and has great battery life. One thing I noticed though is the multitasking isn't...
I don't know if any of you guys are members of online the streaming game service. I signed up for it when it first came out but never bought a game.

So I recently installed a 64gb SSD as my boot drive for windows 7. Fresh install. I have 2 other drives for media and such. A 1tb Caviar Black and a 2tb WD green.
The computer is running great, fast, SSD is a dream.
I did notice however that my HDD activity light is staying solid. The...
Hey guys,
My computer has really been aggravating me lately. Windows takes forever to boot up; it is generally getting pretty sluggish. I am probably going to reinstall Windows and figured I would upgrade some stuff while I am at it. I always find myself low on RAM and my current motherboard...
My local Best Buy had this External HDD on sale for $119.99

Well ideally I would like a glass or glossy IPS monitor for my crossfire 5850 win 7 setup.
I am looking at 2 ends of the spectrum.
On one hand I would love an IPS panel for the great picture, I like glossy screens. I really like the apple 23' and the iMac 27', I am worried about...
Hi guys, I have my 5850 crossfire setup displaying to 2 monitors. My samsung 23 inch 2048x1152 and my samsung 1080p tv.
When I have both displays on, say I am watching a divx movie on one screen and web surfing on the other, I get a crapload of horizontal screen tearing, if the movie is...
So normally I am not a fan of this type of software. But I noticed you can type in your product key on an EA physical copy disc, and download the digital version online. Pretty cool.
I want to have the digital version on my laptop and desktop, worst case only on the laptop.
Whats the DRM...
Hey guys. Thought some people might be interested in this combo. I just picked one up from Fry's in Austin Texas. 350 with a 30 mir. Pretty good deal I think.
my apologies if this has been posted I am on my phone.
I have a 13 inch macbook pro I would like to sell, it is in near perfect condition, always stored in its incase soft zipper case. It was purcased in June of 2009, so it still has plenty of warranty left and I believe still qualifies for apple care if you choose to purchase.

Hey guys, I am helping a friend build a new gaming PC. The only things he has really stressed are he wants it to be fast for at least 3 or 4 years, not necessarily games, but everyday tasks. I was thinking i5 setup, but also debating getting him to just buy a desktop and put a 5850 in it... He...
This is my first hot deal post so my apologies if it is luke warm. But Best Buy has the Logitech G9 gaming mouse for $44.99 + S&H and Tax for me.

2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping...
Hey guys,
I was not sure if the SFF guys or the OC guys would be the group to ask, but I was hoping someone might recommend a mATX MB that overclocks well with a q6600.
My only requirement being that it accepts DDR2 and would be compatible with the new 4890 card I am getting.
I was going to...

So the power in my room went out, I assumed that it was the storm that we are having right now in texas. I randomly go downstairs, see that other lights are on. Turns out my breaker flipped, which makes no sense, all I was doing was browsing the internet, its not like my room was taking a lot of...

Hey guys I was just randomly thinking the other day, and came up with a random wild idea.
I also hear people talk about and notice that vista as well as any operating system, takes up system resources. And dedicated video gaming consoles tend to take better advantage of their resources...
Ok so I just built myself a new gaming rig for crysis ;), but I am running into some problems, I was hoping to overclock above 3 ghz. So far the only stable overclock I can get is the AI overclock in the asus mb settings. I think my problem is the settings on my ram.This is my second overclock...
