    So, who's winning the HD-DVD/Blu-Ray format war?

    Blu-Ray is going to win. not only because of movies, but the larger capacity of the disc. also because of PS3, Blu-Ray are more common used then HD-DVD. as of now, HD-DVD is strictly for movies and not for data or games.

    My HTPC setup!!!

    my fireplace doesnt even work actually, its not one of those gas ones that can be turned on with a switch. so it was more of an eyesore. i think mounting the LCD on top of the fireplace is a bit too high to watch, i've seen it on some smaller condos and i think it stress the neck too much...

    8500GT vs. HD 2400

    i used a dual link DVI-D to HDMI cable... no luck apparently, the sales at a-power.com told me that the HD2600XT comes with the DVI to HDMI adapter, but the rest does not.

    8500GT vs. HD 2400

    video works fine, i've been using DVI to HDMI cable for a while, but audio from HDMI does not work with these cables. to get full HDMI capability, i think others have been saying that it needs a special DVI to HDMI adapter

    8500GT vs. HD 2400

    i used a HD2400 and ran the resolution in windows as 1920x1080 so is that 1080P or 1080i? according to my TV, its 1080P But i have to return it, cuz it does not come with the special DVI to HDMI adapter that does audio.

    another thing i was looking at was upgrading the HDD on my current setup plus a HD2400 pro video card. since i believe that one also does HDMI w/ Audio. would that be a better solution?

    What's next for high end Video cards?

    i dont really know how they work internally. i was thinking of using dual core on one chip to perform SLI functions. but more importantly is to shrink the die down even further. 65nm still seem too big for GPU especially the amount of power and heat it produce is already far greater then...

    Is the G15 worth the price?

    i got one the first day it was avaliable. i can say it is the best keyboard i've ever owned. i find the LCD very useful especially in WoW, and the light up keyboard is pretty sweet too.
