Hey all. I was wondering, would it be possible for each news post to have a comments link? It could work just like the comments link at the end of each hardware review that kicks people to the forums. This would allow people to discuss any especially interesting pieces of news that...

Hello all, I'm gonna log my experiences with my first nVidia purchase here. I'm gonna use pictures to make it more interesting. :) Feel free to comment. I've been using ATi since the original radeon came out. I switched to ATi after being a 3dfx lover for years. However, after...

or 1GB of RAM with a 512MB card. I have about 800 dollars to spend. Should I get a x1800xt with 512MB of RAM, and use my current 1GB of system RAM with that. Or....Should I get a 7800GTish with 256MB of RAM and get a new set of 2GB RAM. I'm also going to be getting a 100 dollar...

Hello all. I'm gonna log my experience with ATi's RMA department. I thought it would be interesting to see what goes on, since I sent in a card that has a 3 year warranty, a 9800XT, that is a limited production card. As many of you know ATi recently changed their warranty coverage; from 3...

The family got a Samsung 56" DLP HDTV for Christmas and we have it all hooked up. Our local cable company (Charter) offered a HDTV box that doubles as a DVR so we got that installed yesterday. The problem is that we only have 4 HD channels available. We get no local channels in HD. This...

Anyone else notice that the prices of the 939pin 3200+ processors @ newegg jumped 40 bucks or so in the past 24 hours? Zipzoom still has them @ 200 bucks, so who does newegg think they are fooling. I saw the supposed news that 3200's and other 939 pin chips are in tight supply, but comn...

I'm looking to upgrade my current Motherboard, Processor, Ram, and Heatsink. I really like the overclocking potential I've seen and heard about that is coming from the new 3000+ AMD 64's. The 3000+ fits nicely within a budget that I have in mind. Now I need to pick out the rest. My...

My pal just bought a P4C800-E Deluxe, 3.0E P4, and 1GB of Corsair 3200XL. When he tries to Overclock he ups the value called CPU External Frequency and DRAM Frequency. With DRAM frequency he can't specify a specific timing like say 250MHz(or a 1GHz FSB) When he changes the Value of the...

I was trying to find the levels that contained a bathroom in FarCry, but cant seem to find any. Does anyone know where they are located. I was wanting to take some screenshots for comparisons to Doom 3's lighting. One of the bathrooms in FarCry has like a trash can in it, but I can't...

Two of the computers I own have 9800XT's in them. One runs Doom 3 perfectly and the other, my brother's, has red and white dots all over the screen. Sometimes there are more or less red and white dots, but they are always there. Neither video card has been overclocked and neither card has...

Both Asus and MSI are listing K7 Socket A KT880 board info on their sites, and have been for awhile. A7V880 KT880 Delta-FSR I was wondering why I can't seem to find a review or a place to purchase these boards. I searched on google for reviews and came up with nothing. It's...

In my setups a 8500 128mb card is faster than a 9600 128mb non pro in direct x 8 and opengl games. I would rather have a 8500 than a 9600 non pro.
