    Battlefield 4 Beta Performance Preview @ [H]

    I have one of the nice Gigabyte 4gig Gtx 770s with those nice 3 fan coolers. I wonder if a video card like that would have better performance. Any chance you guys have one to test with?

    BatMan Arkham Asylum performance issues.

    I had my sampling of textures way too high. after dropping it down did the ingame benchmark at 1680x1050 and hit 80 fps. And it looks great. Now to up it to 1920x1080 and see if If can push the aa just a bit more. I think I can tweak it a bit and still have 60fps constant with very high detail.

    250GB Xbox 360 Rumor Was True

    I never understood how anyone could be excited over the hard drives found in xbox 360s. These are Sata Laptop drives. I can grab a Ps3.. buy a 500gb Sata drive for like $100 and install it. And it takes me all of like 10minutes at the most. Ms instead makes the system proprietary and because...

    So I have a Crossfired 4850 setup. and I have been happy with it to a degree but the heat issues are starting to annoy me a little. Unfortunately the version I have use small Fans. Great for space but the fact that I have a pci-express sound card sandwiched between the 2 cards means after a...

    Sign Of The Times

    I swear the increased stupidity shown wit the apparent glee some here have with 34000 folks losing their jobs at CCity a company that was started in 1969. is quite sad. then the fact that Hardocp laughs at this and tries to defend the Bs coming from Best buy really makes me just damn happy...

    Best Buy Plans Layoffs at Headquarters

    Dan I Am going to say this just like the media your opinion on this matter is poorly informed. And just the like the average consumer you don't do the proper research. I did a quick check on a Sharp 32inch LCd at the local CCity that is liquidating. I looked for the same model online...

    I am not a Funcom rep. I am not blind either. Nor will support a thread that was that poorly written and poorly researched. As I said its easy to believe something from someone you don't know if you just are going to go by that persons statement. Its like a vista topic before the Mojave...

    I read the post by the individual who swears up and down that AOC is a massive failure blah blah. I am amazed a post that was so poorly written was given ammunition and stuck on the actual front of the page of hardocp.

    Hellgate London Has officially gone out of business

    Those who gave up after 2 weeks. have nothing to say. There was some huge patches and content that was released long after you gave up. And the game was much better for it.

    I admit it, I was wrong.

    wow amazing.. I was the one of the biggest posters who said that relying on crysis for reviews was a big mistake. I knew I was 100% right. I just wasn't going to crow about it. I am glad Dan that you manned up and admitted it. Now I can't wait to see you guys start using other titles to review...

    what made you choose 4870 over the 4850?

    I ordered the 4870.. because first off I have a 3870 so definitely want to get the logical upgrade from that. And secondly I tried an 8800gtx and it was defective so I decided to get the 4870 as the Logical Badass uber replacement.
