It's Destiny press week, and the articles of first hand impressions from a play test earlier in the month are coming out. More info is sure to follow this week from Bungie themselves, as well.
Here's a good resource for all you can read information...
Hello everyone,
So I've finally got an aftermarket cooler, two years later, and I'm looking to overclock my system.
I've done the forum search, and the google, and I've tried some overclocking. From 4.0GHz to 4.5GHz.
The issue I'm having is thermal related. I'm running a Corsair H100i and...
Introduction
So, I've been looking at getting an All-In-One H20 CPU Cooler for quite a while. A few years at least. Over time I've seen many reviews but have failed to find a comprehensive amalgamation of the data. So, I'm taking it upon myself to corral as many of the reviews as I can, into...

Hey Everyone,
I was wondering if there are any other Fanatec users out there? I figured this thread could serve as a discussion/support location for those of us who are.

Diablo 3 is released.
COD: Elite is entrenched.
COD:BLOP2 Generating a massive Meh.
Mists of Pandaria Generating lots of Meh.
I might take $13 Billion now too!

With those timelines and restrictions, I can only see Bungie going from AAA developer, to irrelevancy in the next ten years.

I actually enjoyed this game quite a bit on the Steam free weekend. Though with Diablo 3 being just released, I'm not planning on playing anything else for a long time, so I'll probably pass for now.

I sure hope it's just a friendly visit.
I, for one, hate apple. I don't want to see any cross over's there, especially if it's somehow related to the rumoured steam box.
IGN has put out a survey to gather information from gamers about who they are and what they do. I think this is a neat idea, and as IGN is who they are (industry connections) it may help influence publisher attitudes towards PC gamers. Who knows? I filled it out just incase that possibility...
So the big boys are out, and even AMD's "mid-range" parts are out. Yet I can't permit myself to buy the AMD mid range before the Nvidia counterparts arrive. I've been expecting to wait until his summer (July-ish) for the nvidia parts to arrive, but it is starting to feel like an eternity...

I was wondering if there is a general Heirarchy to External Drive OEMs? I'm looking to purchase in the 2-3 TB range. I've heard some hear say that Western Digital is not reliable but I wanted to canvass a larger sample size before I took that advice without a grain of salt.
