    Deadly Premonition: The Director’s Cut coming to PS3 Q1 2013

    I for one can't wait for this game to come out to the PS3. I know it was on the PS3 in Japan, but never came here. Swery announced he would have it for the PS3 sometime in the future, at least there's a time frame. And in HD no less. I don't have a 360 (nor will I get one), so I couldn't play it...

    Razer DeathAdder Left Handed Problem

    I do like the DeathAdder Left Handed, but with the drivers that Razer gave me (working with a ticket) to get it to work (3.03 drivers instead of 3.05), the mouse has started to really wig out. Like when I insert media into my computer or I tell it to accept something via UAC in Windows 7, the...

    Razer Ouroboros Mouse

    Link I know some say it looks like the RAT (which is does kind of) but the big thing for me is that it's ambidextrous, and even though I have a left handed DeathAdder, an ambidextrous mouse would still be awesome. I mainly want to avoid the conflict where some games cannot switch the mouse...

    Tekken will never have paid DLC characters

    Fuck yes. This is how you do it, Capcom. This is how you fucking do it. Honestly, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is a day one buy for me now. http://www.edge-online.com/news/harada-tekken-will-never-have-paid-dlc-characters

    Which CPU cooler?

    Currently I'm using a Corsair A70 cooler for my CPU, but the thing is, is that the one 120mm fan does cover over one or two of the DIMMs very closely (I would have to have low profile memory, like the HyperX Blu that I currently have). But what I'm thinking is, how good is the performance of...

    Newegg Extended Warranty (Service Net)

    Has anyone ever had any experience with it? I'm trying to look around and find anything conclusive and wondering how reliable the company is. I'm asking because I'm thinking of getting the ASRock Z77 Extreme6, and since it has a 1 year warranty, I want to put a year or two extra on it, but not...

    How Good is the Asus Motherboard Customer Service?

    I would like to know. I have a friend who had a really horrible time with them by sending the same motherboard back twice and gotten the same one back both times because they couldn't recreate the same problem. I would like to hear your stories, if you guys have had any issues or good fortune...

    Upgrading My Video Card

    I currently have a reference cooler version of the 5850 by HIS. My question is, what would easily be the best bang for the buck upgrade over this GPU? I was looking at the 7950, but god it is still damn expensive. I was going to upgrade my full system by April and was thinking if I should wait...

    Weirdest Thing

    My PS3 just started to fuck up again, freezing, even had a blinking red light earlier. Now I tried to go into safe mode and try to fix things after the constant freezing when the XMB is trying to come up. It would say that the hard disk wasn't there for safe mode, then I just decided to try to...

    GOG Thread

    Never found an all around thread for GOG. Comment, discus, have fun and so on. I just wanted to make it since I just bought Freespace 2 since I have a joystick now. I have also bought One Unit Whole Blood and Witcher 2 on the site. Great non-DRM alternative to Steam.

    Sound Card Dead?

    Over the past couple of nights my speakers would just flat out stop working (no sound, but power is still on). I try the speakers via my PS3 and they work fine and so do my headphones via front 3.5mm jack on my case (hooked into my HT Omega Striker). Now something new happened, I did get sound...

    Different Fan Speeds (5850)

    I know this sounds noobish, mainly because I never really tried to deal with it ever, but is there a way, possibly with CCC or MSI Afterburner, where I could tell my 5850 to go to 100% fan speed while playing games and then back down to like 20% or 25% when just browsing on the desktop/internet...

    IB Mobo

    I have to ask, some of the newer motherboards coming out are saying they are Ivy Bridge ready, but what I'm curious about, should I literally just wait till IB comes out and see if this brings in a whole slew of new motherboards with it? As in boards that are more specifically made with IB in...

    7950, Are You Waiting?

    Anyone else waiting for the 7950? I know the huge thing right now is the 7970, but I wonder if I'm the only one who thinks $550 for a new card is a bit much? Also, I'm waiting for Ivy Bridge, so I got a lot of time to see the new AMD and nVidia offerings. If anything, I'd like to just make this...

    Upgrade GPU over CPU?

    I have been thinking, I wonder if I should just upgrade my GPU and just leave my CPU alone for a while. The only thing is, the GPU I'm looking at are the new AMD/nVidia cards that will come out that have PCIe 3.0. Was thinking of a possible 7950 from AMD or an equivalent nVidia for the card that...

    Wi-Fi Down

    After a power outage for 3 days (this was a while ago during that big snow storm in the north east), when we got power back, my router works, but there is no Wi-Fi signal whatsoever. I checked all the settings on the Wi-Fi and everything is how it should be. I have a Linksys WRT54GL running...

    USB 3.0 Header to USB 2.0 Header?

    I noticed that the Corsair 400R and 500R have an adapter for their USB 3.0 header connection to go to USB 2.0 if you cannot use that connection just yet. What I'm asking is, is there an actual adapter like that that I can buy separately for possibly another case? I just can't find one. EDIT...

    Back-Up Method: DVD/Blu-Rays vs. External HDDs

    Which do you think I should be going with in this day and age. I do have a lot I want to burn off, but as of right now, DVDs are getting to be a hassle and very time consuming. Do you think I should get myself some 1TB externals and back up that way? I have about 5 DVD folders full and at least...

    PS3 Replacement Question

    I backed up my PS3 because I want to send it in to get repaired/replaced ($129 for everything) and do you think I should just wipe my PS3 hard drive before I send it in?
