I am debating whether I made the right decision with my monitor purchase. I went ahead and got three 22" Dell s-IPS displays (in my sig) for an nVidia 2D surround experience. I am wondering now if I made the right decision. I played some World of Warcraft, some Dirt 3, some Saints Row: The...

I want to sell my Microsoft Xbox Live points or possibly trade for other modern PC gaming related stuff. I got a bunch of Microsoft points awhile back, and after building a gaming PC, I realize I will never spend what I bought. If anyone is interested, I am selling in 1600 point increments...

Ok, I this thread is basically an advice seeking thread. I am also going to try and share my actual experiences as I take action as result of advice. Over the course of the last 5+ years I have tried to get my media collection streaming to various places in my home, for little cost, and relative...

I have the following for sale: Diablo III Collector's Edition, unopened, shrinkwrapped. - - S-O-L-D ---------------------------------------------- Hori Fighting Stick 3 for PS3. I have 2 of these. One of them is in the box, the other is loose. Both are very good condition, but not perfect...

I am putting up for sale a couple of laptops. I am not looking for other hardware or laptops, or trades of any sort. Just verified PayPal. I've done business on here before with good luck, and would love to avoid fleaBay's outrageous commission. I'm in the market for a new car, and having a...

I just finished up with my first SSD install. I dropped a Mushkin Callisto Deluxe 240gb (SF12xx based) drive into my laptop. I had some difficulty getting everything setup properly. Turns out the version of Intel RST (rapid storage technology) was causing slowdowns, BSODs, and system...

After pounding the internet to find the right deal, I bit on a Mushkin Callisto Deluxe 240gb. It's a Sandforce 1222 based drive with 34nm NAND. I got it under the $1/gb I was looking for, which is nice because other drive manufacturers would list 256gb as the size, making the price even sweeter...

Hey everyone, I am in search of a little advice. I just recently had an Alienware m17x r1 replaced, and while most of the components are massive upgrades, I accepted a WD 5400rpm hard drive in place of my old WD Black 7200rpm. I notice the difference tremendeously on World of Warcraft load...

I have for sale some iPod/iPad stuffs. First up is a like-new condition iPad 16gb WiFi model. I purchased it earlier this year and it's just sit in it's box for most of it's life. I thought it would get used a lot more, but I find myself just using my laptop, so it needs to go! It will come...

Ok, so I've seen all the beautiful screenshots and videos from the third Forza game coming out this fall. I went back and put in my copy of Forza 2 that I got with my Xbox 360, and I found myself asking the question "What is the proper way to play this game?". Is the point to collect the most...

When I attempt to run DX10 video games in Vista x64, apparently the refresh rate is being changed to something my monitor does not support. I am using an ATI 4870. I am trying to run Crysis Warhead in 1920x1080 resolution (the exact same as my desktop), and when I change from the default...

I have had my Hyundai L90d+ for going on 5 years now. It was one of the first low latency 19" LCD's and I really liked it when I got it for gaming. (FarCry looked amazing on my 6800). Now something I have noticed and it's slowly bothered me more and more over the years is that you can see the...

I have a laptop which I purchased new 2+ years ago from Dell's website with one of those good 20% off coupons. I put together a $1300+ system and have been using it daily since. The battery obviously isn't what it used to be (Dell officially says they have a 1-year lifespan which I believe)...

Here's the deal. I recently inherited a P4 based system from a good friend who upgraded to a new system. It's actually in a small form factor case and I was planning on simply putting it to use as a NAS (network attached storage) box. Recently however, I got the idea that maybe I could turn...

Seriously, what happened to the RPG genre?? I was just watching a video review for a game I was somewhat looking forward to. Infinite Undiscovery. The review bagged on the game hard for pretty much doing some stuff that's already been done, but worse, and with a bad story. That seems to have...

Ok, we all have our favorite games. There are two kinds of games that I have an affinity towards. First off there are the games that make you glad you played them. The kind of games that look insanely good, or play insanely good, or even do something new that surprised you. These games are...

Is there a way to create a playlist for video files to have 2 videos seemless and gaplessly playback? My problem is the file size limitation of Fat32 due to the fact that the PS3 will not read any modern filesystem. 4gb max filesize means I am unable to watch high deffinition content from an...

PUZZLE QUEST! Puzzle Quest for XBLA out on Wednesday! Puzzle Quest will be released on Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday, the 10th of October, which is less than two days away! It will be available to download from the Marketplace for 1200 points. http://www.infinite-interactive.com/puzzlequest/

The October issue of Wired Magazine contains an interesting article which will surely cause some anger and controversy. Fanboi's will likely dance an irish jig, or think about listening to some Dashboard Confessional and visiting the local hardware store for razor blade replacements, depending...

I honestly don't know enough about this type of stuff to back up what this guy is saying, but I believe it. http://forum.beyond3d.com/showpost.php?p=1070774&postcount=276 What he's saying is that the game renders at 640p and upscales in the console itself. He's done testing on grip of...

Ok here's the story guys. I just purchased a nice 32" LCD TV in anticipation for Halo 3 but I have a question. Why don't consoles output native resolution for these televisions? The listed native resolution for my TV is 1366x768. As I understood, 720p was 1280x720. Now this isn't just a...

Title says it. I am looking to purchase one of these adapters which allow you to play with a Keyboard and Mouse on Xbox 360. The going rate of these things seems to be between $80-100 so I would like to find someone who isn't using theirs and save a little money. Let me know via PM if you...

Has anyone used one of these devices and have opinions on them? I am looking for a good online dealer to pick one up after looking at a video of Call of Duty 4 being played using one. It looks so much smoother than gamepad control (I am like a monkey smashing his fist on a DDR pad when it comes...

I am leaning over to the PS3 side more and more every day. Reliable hardware that has a fantastic feature set ... and an utterly lackluster catalog of titles. What is left this year that has you excited? I am hoping I can find more than 2 titles that motivate a purchase so far I am very...

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/24261.html Well, looks like they were not lying about UT3 running very well on the PS3. The idea of vehical CTF with a controller sounds awesome. The idea of using a Sixxaxis for motion controlling the redeemer is also pretty awesome. I CAN NOT WAIT!

I am looking at getting a smaller sized display for playing video games. It will function primarily as a gaming display, however possibly would be used as a TV. I am trying to find some information on if going for an LCD TV is the better option for GAMING than it would be to just get a LCD...

Topic asks the question. I am looking for some actual gameplay direct feed. Does such a thing exist? Curious to see how this will stack up to Quake 4 in terms of competitive gaming .. curious if this is the future of tournament play, or will Quake 4 remain the "go-to deathmatch style" FPS...

God it was truely depressing to see how poorly this ran on my 7900 GS. I was still dillusional in thinking that @ the lowest settings, I would play at acceptable framerates @ 1440x900. Certaintly not the case. I'm just glad I was able to find this out playing the demo. I was contemplating...

Well it's crunch time. I need to make some decisions about my Dell E1505. Tomorrow morning the money for my new lappy goes into my checking and I'll be ordering a system. Basically everything is how I want it *except* I am having second thoughts on spending the money on a 2.0ghz Core 2 Duo vs...

I have a desktop computer which was used by me as a fun little project but it's now served its purpose and is sitting in the corner unused. I will sell it either as a full system (which I would much rather do) or I will part it out of I get some offers. It's an AsRock 775Dual-915GV...
