Hi everyone! My name is Ben, and I would like to build a new gaming rig soon because I'm giving up on console gaming, and think that is be much happier with a pc. 1. What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming, Photoshop (or other intensive programs), Web browsing, strictly HTPC/Playback, etc...

hey i have a question.... so sprint is offering their family plan right... but the iphone for life family plan... is that 4 iphones for $100 a month?? or am I being charged $100, plus $70 per an iphone per a month?

yeah i would have liked if this gen stuck to 1080p instead of trying to go beyond that. I'm more concerned about heating, battery life, and the stability of the overall phone. :/

i dont even do that, i only look at the screen when i want to. :D

i always turn off the led notification on my phones. I think it is a useless battery drain.

I'm told there is still no jailbreak for the current iOS. Is that true?

I have not tried windows phone yet, I have not gotten one because I am worried about the whole app store thing! But I prefer iOS to Android OS because I find iOS more stable. Sure it lacks the customization that Android has, but I've had to factory reset my android phone FAR more.

i dont care if its only an incremental update from the 5s, its a huge update from my current phone.

im hoping that the 5.5 incher releases sooner rather than later... my galaxy s2 is having failures left and right. :(

with a screen at 5.5" can you even tell pixel density? doesn't that drain more battery for something our eyes can't really discern?

i play on the xbox one and have not experienced any hiccups at all. also.... cant wait till i get home from work hehehehehe

I WANT! How much?? mmm

I hope its at the event because I wanna get it sooner rather than later! :3

hmmmm its motorola making it? they are usually good on battery life in their phones. maybe i should consider the nexus 6 when i upgrade. :)

snapdragon 805 = last 32bit mobile processor yes?

I didn't have to jailbreak the iphone, i was comfortable with it. Until iOS7 happened. Then I wanted to jailbreak and go back an OS.

Wouldn't jailbreaking iOS change that?

i honestly dont really remember the notifications panel all that much. lol i hope the big one comes out next month then ill read reviews to help me make choices too

oh bummer.... so i would have to swipe down to see the widgets... not horrible.... maybe that saves in battery power?

hmmm I have a BA degree in english (graduated 2011, was unemployed till five weeks ago)... and some course work in computer support... and some personal experience building my own computers.. I currently make 32k a year as customer support at a software aviation company (I'm up for a raise...

only a year? what was their experience like? bad? I know someone whose son worked at google for three years, then retired for three years (he traveled the world), then started his own company. He is doing really well!

I've never heard of Dalvik before, or ART. I've just applied to work for Google. I hope they would hire me, I'd LOVE to work for them. ^____^ I notice with samsung I cannot remove some of their programs on the phone, I can only uninstall the updates to their software in order to minimize its...

ok i have a question... people are telling me that ios is good operating system because of how it uses its hardware which is "mediocre" and makes it work well, is that true? or is that the ARMv8 architecture of the processor at work? Cause I didn't think iOS 7.1 was good on the iPhone4s, I...

@ CHANG3D - Oh... I didn't know. I mostly lurk these forums to gain knowledge and learn whats up with technology. I would really love to find myself in more of an IT related job. Right now I do customer support for aviation software, I figured it would be a good start. But I need to learn a lot...

trolling? how? i actually like this information i'm getting from everyone. and still debate between the two phones. I just slightly lean a certain way at the moment. aurelius - what do you mean brute force approach wont work for long??? EDIT - In other news, I think I've fixed my current...

That makes sense about the armv8. curious as to when qualcomm will put out armv8 processors. I don't really consider the apple parts necessarily mediocre, i think they try and think how to get as much battery life as possible in they tiny space that they are allowed to have in a phone, and for a...

yea i know that. But when I use facetime I'm not looking to speak to a bunch of people, just the one person who also happens to have an iphone or ipad which is a lot of people. i can put hangouts and skype on the phone too. but i cant put facetime on other devices.

From a social standpoint, i am leaning towards iPhone even though I don't see it as the powerful phone many consumers do. I think the 64bit chip is a gimmick, its neither quad core, nor boasting 4gb ram, thus making the 64bit chip only give minor gains. (from what i've read), although in my...

is the larger iphone coming out in september or later?

Hey guys, so I am currently using a Galaxy s2, on the sprint carrier. I used to use an iphone 4s but i sold it recently for a nice price, and went back onto this phone as it was my spare. Problem is, the Galaxy s2 is far less stable than the iphone 4s, and i do use these phones for work, and the...

well im not sure what you'd recommend.. its base is 3.5, what if i clock it to 3.9?

Danny yes that one!!!! I knew I got the numbers mixed up sorry... I would love to overclock! It sounds like it would run everything faster. :) I was looking at this noctua cooler, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608018 As far as the asus mobo... I just read some...

if i do go the overclocking route, I am open to modest overclocking of the processor. I am only slightly worried about it because I don't wanna burn out parts. I had a friend with an i5 2370k processor (I think thats what it was, ivy bridge), and he put it at 4.2? he liked it.. so maybe...

I like a lot of those specs!!! But I think I might bump that video card up another $50, because $50 more gets me double the vram. I'm also going to get two of them. I may also go for the noctua cooling system, and an asus pro z87 mobo. I was also curious, would a fractal design define r4 be a...

I set raid up on my fathers computer, and when one of his hard drives went bad, the other hard drive picked up the slack and he lost no information... i just switched out the burned out hdd. I liked that. media playback software??? Hmm... I have blu rays.... Thats about it. screen...

I think the new design of the mac pro looks like a cross between r2d2 and a sex toy.

Oh yes. Will need an optical drive. Probably a blue ray. Maybe a burner? I was told its a good idea to put the OS on the solid state drive, and then use another HDD for other storage purposes so I'll be getting a solid state drive as well. The monitor is not apart of the $3000, I have a monitor...

I'm building a machine for a friend, we aren't sure as to what specs to use. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc PC will be used for gaming, as well was papers, web browsing, and possibly virtual machines. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and...

in that case, which case would you say would be best? i was looking into the antec 1100.

Hey guys, Love this forum. I love learning about technology by seeing the debates on this forum. I just want to thank the community first and foremost for being here. That being said, I am making the switch from console gaming, to computer gaming because I can get better deals on the...
