Looking at the game project that have been surfacing on Kickstarter lately, I see the kind of games that we should be getting from the big publishers and developers, but instead we get overpriced and underwhelming titles. A few in particular, like Grim Dawn, have made me rethink how this should...

The colors, the lighting, the modeling, everything. It honestly feels like when the original Unreal came out and it was all these wonderful ranges of colors that we weren't seeing in games. And it's a blast to play, as well!

I have been looking around on here and see people using rack systems that they have bought or found, and I am asking if this would be a good way to go in building a firewall with pfSense. Or would it be better to build a small ITX-size system to run it? What type of hardware am I looking for...

My RAM has been getting really warm/borderline hot and I wanted to get a cooler assembly for it but the reviews for different ones seem to be all over the place, even ones from companies like Zalman and Corsair. Complaints range from shoddy frames to fans that fail or sound like a cat being...

I have used VIPRE Premium for the last year and while it is decent, it has some quite irritating issues like blocking sites it "knows" to be bad that aren't and the same with files (it even blocked all of Alcohol Software's site). However, it was lightweight in resource usage and speed of...

I want to get this white, braided 6-pin PCI-e extender to clean up my case and make it look nicer. However, I have an EVGA 570 2.5GB and I have to use the modified connector that came with it, since this card uses only 5 pins instead of the full 6 on both connectors. The card will not run with...

Perhaps this can be definitely answered for me as it is something that I have wondered about for a while. I understand that textures must be scaled down in quality for the limited RAM, both system and frame buffer, of consoles. However, why are the original created textures not used for the...

I can find nothing useful other than the general reason why a program would generate the error in question: "Runtime error '6': Overflow" I would like to use Dataram's RAMDisk program to create a 4GB RAM drive to put various temp directories and such on it. However, it will not run. It...

So now, I have noticed with SSDs and this new Z68 board, it takes longer to get through the booting process than to load Windows 7 because it has to go through 2 RAID controller screens even though no RAID drives are defined. This is not how it should be. Please, manufacturers, make it so...

In building a completely new system, my wife and I agreed that she would get my old one (with some tweaks) that is still better than her current one. Portal 2 is what she really wants to play, so that will basically be the limit for game complexity as far as hardware requirements go. However, a...

Is the general idea when overclocking a 2600K+P8Z68 to ramp up the Turbo multiplier and keep it cool enough so that it is always in Turbo mode? SpeedStep also seems to not be able to be truly disabled, though I have heard of other settings that need to be be disabled for that to happen. I am...

I am using an Asus P8Z68 Deluxe and am trying to RAID0 2 128GB Crucial M4s to make a very fast game drive. I have tried the drives on both the Intel and Marvell controllers but to no avail. I have set the arrays up on both and the drivers for each are installed, included the "Marvell Raid...

Looks like I will be getting this instead of the 1.5v Vengeance. :eek: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18322927

Does anyone else have this problem? I use a 256-bit VPN when I am on newsgroups and wanted to play while it was downloading. Origin goes into offline mode thinking I have no internet connection whenever I am connected to the VPN. Steam does not have this problem nor does any other program...

Is there any inkling that nVidia's Kepler- or AMD's Southern Islands-based cards will use PCEe 3.0? I ask because I see MSI is the first out with a PCIe 3.0 motherboard and I am coming up on a full upgrade from my current system (3.1Ghz Brisbane, 4GB and 4870 1GB, OS on SSD) to a 2600K with...

If I were to stay with AMD when I do a complete upgrade later this year but would like to use PhysX in some games, is it viable to have a 6970 as the video card and, say, a 470GTX plugged in just for the PhysX to run on? I know even a 260GTX would probably do the job, but you know what I mean...
