    Google Pixel XL Phones Blacklisted as Stolen

    I wanted a Pixel when they came out. At the time, IIRC the Pixel came out after I got my Note 7, while the Note 7 was in recall mode (don't quote me on that) I held on to my ticking timebomb trying to get a Pixel. I believe, at that time, that the Pixel was UP FRONT only. I couldn't cover it at...

    'No Man's Sky' Is Being Investigated For False Advertising

    I've played the game, and I actually like it. It's something to take my mind off my day. That's all games should be. Something to take your mind off your day. Some do it better than others, and the enjoyment factor depends on the individuals tastes. I do agree they promised too much and didn't...

    New Gaming Build

    The hyper 212 evo is a fine heatsink to use, its great, and has pretty good performance. I'm using one now on an old (yet my main system) i7-930, OC'd to 4.03ghz. I have 2 fans on it now, and they're the ones from the Coolermaster Glacer Watercooler. They are Pretty high in static pressure and...

    Is my 290x tri-x dying?

    Sounds like the card to me, if the drop in fps was sudden, and all these errors are cropping up ... but since you said you lost a fan on the CPU cooler, the CPU could be throttling. However -- you aren't able to OC the card either. resulting in the black screen driver crash. I'd also test your...

    GPU replacement

    Dual Link jsut means it supports the higher resolutions.. you still need one cable per monitor.. you'll be more than fine with the 750Ti ... just make sure you get the 2gb version. That gigabyte you have linked there is very nice. Dont bother with the 630, as it isnt an upgrade to your 460...

    Need a replacement FIOS Router

    I miss my FiOS that I used to have. I currently have Comcast with a 105/15 or so connection, and my Asus RT-AC56U does fine with it. As long as you're hooked up Ethernet to the ONT --- any of the current Asus routers should work.... RT-AC68U/R would be my guess..... though the new RT-AC87U/R is...

    Intel Haswell i7-4770K IPC and Overclocking Review @ [H]

    First off, Great Review Kyle -- However, I'm kinda wondering if it would be a worthwhile investment for me to make the upgrade.... I'm coming from an x58 system, and I'd like confirmation from a "professional hobbymaster" such as yourself on this. That said, the way I see this is.... I've...

    Antec cases unavailable?

    Not to introduce conjecture and all, but this doesn't sound that great for Antec. It's seeming as if they are in trouble. I fear they might have taken the hit from all these "new" companies (not really new -- but old players improved) making far superior cases with many more features, and still...

    Thermalright AXP-100 CPU Air Cooler Review @ [H]

    Agree with blackscreen...... its really tweaked... overly so.... the flex on that frame is absurd..... i dont see the need for it to be THAT tight.... and is that a flex spacing at the center of the heatsink too??? I wonder if that has any effect on the performance.....

    Cougar CMX-1000

    Thanks for the replies guys --- I am relieved that I was correct in thinking that my machines aren't pulling that much power to pop a "supposed" 1000w Power Supply. I'm gonna have to take them up on the direct replacement --- and really am at a loss as to what to do with the damn thing after...

    Bad PS or..mobo

    MSI Barebone System Give-Away

    The cooling reminds me of the dual fan setup that the Palit guys had put on some 4870's. The twin fan design "should" be quieter than stock, and it looks pretty bad-ass as well. It gives a very "aftermarket look" to an OEM cooler.
