    Bad Company 2

    I've noticed in rush and conquest games, 10-40% of the losing team will drop out in the last minute of the game. Are they doing this to game the win/loss ratio?

    Bad Company 2

    Recently started playing HC and I'm enjoying it. Especially HC SQDM and HC Rush. Rush game play is paced different than vanilla - less blind charges, more covered advancement. For SQDM I prefer the urban maps; Oasis provides great 12 man action. * Other perks of HC - no spotting, friendly...

    BF2BC Punkbuster sucks

    Guy in my clan was getting booted by Punkbuster for corrupted memory - it turned out the problem was his overclocking. He ran Prime95 and his system had math errors on the second cycle. He dialed back the overclocking and Punkbuster hasn't bitched since.

    YES WE CAN stop the AT&T - T-Mobile merger!!!!

    The applications that AT&T and DT submitted to the FCC is anti-competitive. It is the FCC's duty to reject these applications. If the applications are approved, the merger will happen very quickly, and the Supreme Court case to review the merger will take a decade to be heard - At which...

    Best mouse for bigger hands?

    After much debating, and roaming different stores touching display models I settled on a Logitech G500. If you hold the mouse between thumb and pinky you'll like it. The MX Performance was a close second, however the battery life turned me off. Previously I had a MS Natural Wireless Laser...

    Gigabyte X58A-UD3R Thread

    Removed the North Bridge 'shield' which was held on by double-stick tape. Then installed a SUNON 40mm Fan with a zip-tie. Did this mod a couple months ago and the north-bridge is running great. Notice the difference when overclocking both the i7-930 and GTX-460.
