    Technology Gone Wrong

    In Albany, NY, we have solar powered trash cans, it's actually pretty awesome. Many trashcans have a built in compactor that is battery powered and hooked up to a solar panel that covers the top. Also the best part is they don't ask me for ID and charge me money! I suppose the collective...

    [H]ardOCP & ASUS GeForce GTX 660Ti DirectCU II Giveaway

    The 660Ti looks like the perfect blend of power efficiency and performance. I want gaming performance but I don't want a 1000W PSU and crazy electricity bills or extra heat. The DirectCU saves me from needing a 3rd party cooler as well. I am in the process of researching parts I will need for a...

    Don't Buy Global Agenda - [H] Editorial

    If you want to run eyefinity with all the details cranked to the absolute max on on three monitors in their native resolutions (at least 1680X1050 each), you would have to get two 5850's. I am only going to get one because I only care to game and focus my attention to one monitor, I am sure...

    Don't Buy Global Agenda - [H] Editorial

    I just sold my Core 2 Quad system and I am about to bite the bullet on an i5/i7 system with a 5850 next week. I updated my sig, I only had that sempron for like a week and thought it would be funny to put it in there. I have a C2D system in the meantime, and I have MSDN access so I have four...

    Don't Buy Global Agenda - [H] Editorial

    Do you really care that much about this? You are in an absolute extreme minority of PC gamers. Hardly anyone at all, much, much less than 1% of PC gamers would drop that much money on a setup to play a few games. You would need a minimum of 2 $300 videocards and 3 $300-800 monitors. I understand...

    GTA IV: First Impressions (no spoilers)

    I got it for 360 and I am running it through VGA at 720p on a 19" LCD. Looks pretty amazing depite a few graphical quirks. So far I am extremely impressed. The sheer amount of things to do, places to see, etc is just awe inspiring. The story is incredible, the radio is hilarious, I especially...

    HOWTO: Overclock C2D Quads and C2D Duals - A Guide v1.0

    Just got a new mobo for my E6420, the abit IP35-E. It was only $60 after a rebate. I just cranked it up to 3.2ghz with a 400mhz fsb and it ran OCCT all night long with no issues. My vcore is set to 1.41V. Max temp was about 66C with my old zalman 7000, only 25C idle. I'm just amazed at how fast...
