Just a warning to everyone, I got hacked this morning on Fanatical.com. It was an unauthorized charge for $24.95 so apparently the culprit bought a game hoping I wouldn't see the transaction. I haven't used that site since 2018 but I'm thinking someone might be illegally accessing their...

PC Gamer has an interesting list of their Top 16 FPS Games for this year. I know just about everyone is looking forward to Atomic Heart, but there were several on here that I wasn't aware of like The Finals and Redfall. https://www.pcgamer.com/this-year-is-stacked-with-promising-fps-games/

Tried the demo today, and being a fan of old-school shooters, I enjoyed it. I'll definitely give the full game a go when it's released at the end of August!

Looks like it's expected to drop on May 26th!

Wow, never seen Steam so slow as tonight. I'm downloading an update to 3DMark that is 500MB and it's taking me 30 minutes! Usually, with my Gigabit Ethernet I can download that amount in a minute or so. Network tests confirm I'm getting full speed. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing...

I've resisted all these years, but finally broke down and bought a G305 wireless mouse for my gaming rig. I've had a standard wireless mouse on my work computer for years, and never had a problem with it. But in games and regular applications, it seems like the G305 "skips" when maneuvering...

Been thinking my 300 Mbps was plenty fast and I rarely maxxed it out, but my ISP offered me an upgrade to 1 Gbps for the same $80/month I've been paying, so it was a real no-brainer. Can't wait to get home tonight and run some speed tests. Hard to believe that just three years ago I was stuck...

I could use some advice from the [H]ard Crew regarding building an i9 9900K rig that runs at 5GHz. From what I've read, the 9900K runs extremely hot and needs water-cooling. Here's my list of main parts I'm considering and I'd appreciate any suggestions or recommendations. Gigabyte Z390 Aorus...

FYI: Never had a problem running Nvidia drivers for the past 20 years, but these borked my video card! After installing them I couldn't select 4K no matter what I tried. I finally did a clean install of 388.71 and it fixed it. Just a warning to those who are considering installing them!

Just tried out the 3 GB demo. Drove the Ferrari 488 GT3 and a Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4. Surprisingly, the Lambo handled better than the Ferrari even though it felt (and is) much heavier. However, both seemed to understeer terribly, making it hard to pull off a smooth, fast lap. I bought the...

Up for sale is my six-month old GTX 1070 in mint condition. Adult-owned and lightly-used from a smoke-free, pet-free home. Never overclocked or abused. I accept PayPal and will ship UPS ground with emailed tracking number. Price is $295 shipped. Please contact me with any questions.

Just ordered a 1080 Ti and received the key for it. I don't play these games so it is up for sale for $30. You need a 1070 or 1080 to download and run the game. Please check the requirements here: http://www.geforce.com/redeem-instructions My Ebay history: http://www.ebay.com/usr/piratepress...

Wondering if this is a good deal to replace from X-FI card? https://www.amazon.com/Blaster-Performance-Headphone-Forming-Microphone/dp/B009ISU33E/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

I just got a 4K monitor and was wanting to know if there are any internal DVD drives that I can play 4K discs on?

Just curious if there will be a six-core Skylake like the 5820K? I've looked around but can't seem to find a definitive answer.

So I just got my MSI 970 today and it works great (Firestrike benchmark is double what my 670's was) but every time I restart my PC, the post takes like two minutes. It stays on the motherboard splash screen and then finally beeps and loads. I've never had a video card do this before, but it...

Some good info here regarding the 800M series chips: http://techreport.com/news/26154/geforces-800m-series-combines-maxwell-kepler

It's a refurb, but I just picked one up to replace my Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Sound Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829102065&clickid=wLb2MqVxf3gv0xt1CIV8KV-MUkTyPSRJWSQO2A0&iradid=97618&ircid=2106&irpid=10531&nm_mc=AFC-IR&cm_mmc=AFC-IR-_-na-_-na-_-na

I feel like if anyone has the potential of pulling this off, it is Carmack: http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2014/02/03/john-carmack-on-oculus-rift/4938887/

I got suckered on buying a 670 right before the 7-series dropped so I'm eagerly waiting for the new 800 series. I certainly hope it does come out Q1 2014: http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/nvidia-gtx-790-tipped-for-2013-release-geforce-800-series-out-in-q1-2014/0120407

I haven't really seen any updates on Nvidia's next GPU for the past couple of months and wondered what the latest news was? I held off on getting a 600-series GPU so I'm really chomping at the bit to get a GTX 770.

Anyone else tried this yet? My local Target had a couple boxes on the shelf last night so I picked one up. I've played all the other NFS games since the original back in '94 and I had high hopes for this one. But I'm not too impressed with what I've seen so far. The game starts with you in an...

Holy crap! This looks pretty cool! http://www.allbenchmark.com/

This overclocked 660 Ti actually did better than the overclocked 670: 3DMark 11 (Extreme Preset): GTX 660 Ti OC: 2928 3D Marks GTX 670 OC: 2895 3D Marks GTX 670: 2636 3D Marks GTX 570: 1816 3D Marks...

I'm thinking of getting it, but I've read that it has a lot of issues typical of shoddy console ports.

I just got a brand-new (not refurb) OCZ Fatal1ty 750w power supply a couple weeks ago. Yesterday, I was watching a movie on my PC and suddenly all the power went off. It rebooted and came back up but it has me worried. My old 650w Antec never did that and nothing else has changed in my PC. I...

I saw where this is available today for download and was wondering if anyone had tried it? http://www.atari.com/FerrariRacingLegends

My Dell rep just contacted me and gave me that price for the GTX 680. Here is the breakdown: Item Number Quantity Item Description A5886644 1 GEFORCE GTX680 2GB GDDR5-DVI-DL HDMI PCIE VIDADPT $597.54 Subtotal: $597.54 Shipping & Handling: $8.99 Tax: $42.46...

Yesterday, I played both Crysis 2 and NFS: Shift 2 and after a few minutes, each got really choppy. I've had the card about a month and it worked great up until this point. No artifacts or anything, but really strange. Has anyone else had similar problems?

So anyone else going to pick this up today?

Just got an email back from my company rep about availability of the new Nvidia cards. This is what he had to say: "The GTX 470’s and 480’s are being introduced end of this month however allocations are very minimal to begin with. They are expected to loosen up around the May time frame. We are...

I just got my new Q9650 installed and noticed that while it idles at 60 degrees celsius, it hits 95-100 degrees celsius when gaming and running benchmarks. Are these normal temps? I had it overclocked but even at stock clocks it is running the same temps!

I ordered a 5850 through our Dell company account manager in November but cancelled the order on Dec. 7th when I read that shipment had been delayed until after Christmas. Then today I received a Dell box with a 5850 in it. I'm on the fence whether to keep it, sell it, or send it back. I'd keep...

Available right now but what a markup!!! :eek: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150454&cm_re=5850-_-14-150-454-_-Product

I'm considering getting a 5870 or 5850 to replace my GTX 260. I've looked but couldn't find any benchmarks on whether the 5870 is $100+ better than a 5850, particularly if I overclock the 5850. I'm not so much worried about price as getting the best bang for the buck. Thanks for any help!

I played this game for about two hours last night starting at the beginning and I'd really love it if borderlands.exe didn't crash with a General Protection Fault every 10-15 mins. Fortunately, the auto-save is pretty frequent so I didn't have to kill Nine-Toes again (it crashed to desktop a...

I just installed Darkest of Days and ran the PhysX benchmark. With the rig in my sig and at 1680x1050 with all display settings on high and PhysX set to Low I got 75 fps. On Medium PhysX it was 45 fps and High PhysX it was 25 fps. Wow, seems like this game might be the new Crysis!

YMMV so check your local store. Great product, I picked up a couple. BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE 12 OZ thru Mar 25...

My buddy who was stationed in Russia came home for the holidays and happened to bring a copy of Cryostasis that he had purchased. He said it wouldn't run on his laptop so he gave it to me. Surprisingly, the game (at least what I've seen) doesn't look anything like the tech demo. Nearly...
