    The Pixel 2 Proves Headphone Jacks Are Truly Doomed

    I'll just get something like the new LG V30 that retains the headphone jack. There are phones other than the iPhone and Pixel.

    Elite Dangerous to add Multiplayer VR Crew in February

    The type of economy (industrial, tourism, agricultural, etc) dictates which items are sold. I think the state (boom, outbreak, civil war, lockout, etc) also affects some commodities but I'm not sure. Security might also be a factor (anarchy, high security, etc). This site helps for locating...

    Nice! Massive improvement on my 7970 with Vulkan.

    AMD Crimson Edition 16.5.2.1 Drivers

    Doubt I'm CPU limited. It's a 4790K, Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark I, 16GB of Ram, Windows 10. I don't doubt something is wrong, I was just blaming AMD's OpenGL drivers but maybe it's something else. I should go through my bios settings again. Maybe I've messed something up.

    AMD Crimson Edition 16.5.2.1 Drivers

    For real? I have a 7970 and I frequently drop to 30fps on medium when running at 1920x1200 with the resolution scaled down to 66%. I had to drop most settings down to low.

    EA Pulling all the Stops on Mass Effect 3 Promotion

    I'm holding out for reviews before I buy this. Three years ago I never imagined I would be saying that about a BioWare game.

    Best Thin and Light 11-13"

    I just bought one of these puppies. Can't wait. It's replacing a 15" MBP because I wanted something smaller and lighter without sacrificing too much power & memory wise.

    Lenovo posts X220 specs, IPS display is an option

    Unfortunately, for us Canadians the IPS screen is a $150 upgrade without discounts. No idea why it's so much extra.

    Can someone recommend me a good laptop? Or should I just give in and get MBP?`

    I've only owned Apple laptops for the past 6 years but I switched yesterday and bought one of the new Lenovo X220 laptops. I would contest the statement that Macs beat PCs on battery life. Does it beat a lot of them? Likely, but not all. The X220 gets about 7 to 8 hours on the default battery...

    Lenovo posts X220 specs, IPS display is an option

    I just placed my order via phone (in Canada). The rep took about $100 off the price to make up for the price difference in the screen between the US and Canada. Now I just have to wait 3 or more weeks to receive it. Sigh.

    Lenovo posts X220 specs, IPS display is an option

    I'm waiting on a final quote from my Lenovo rep. If all goes well I'll be ordering one of these babies today or tomorrow. 2.7ghz i7 w/ IPS display. Going to max out the RAM with aftermarket DIMMS and buy a compatible SSD off of Newegg. This will save me big bucks.

    Requesting Advice re: Random Reboots

    Each memory module passed memtest when tested in isolation (only one slot filled) so I guess it's time to call up Asus and request a RMA. I reseated the memory yesterday so I doubt that was the problem.

    Requesting Advice re: Random Reboots

    Thanks for the advice -- I was under the impression that with triple channel memory I need to have all 3 sticks installed? Is it true I can install 1 stick at a time with an i7 x58 setup? BTW -- I checked the windows event logs early on when this first started happening and couldn't find...

    Requesting Advice re: Random Reboots

    I'm testing with 1.35V for CPU, 1.64V with RAM @ 1066Mhz. I also managed to get my older 550 Enermax PSU working with using an old Geforce card but It still randomly reboots. So I guess that leaves Motherboard or RAM.

    Do you remember what setting you used for the CPU voltage?

    Requesting Advice re: Random Reboots

    Tried 1066 w/ 1.64 (bios doesn't let me enter 1.65) but no luck. In fact, the computer resets now before the monitor even turns on.

    Requesting Advice re: Random Reboots

    Before I explain the problem here are the specs (this is not a new build though some parts are newer than others -- it has been running stable since Dec 2008): i7 920 @ stock speed Asus P6T Deluxe w/ latest Bios (as of a couple of days ago/after the problems began) 3 2GB Corsair Dominator 1600...
