So, after shelling out 50 bucks for the absolutely amazing Xbox Precision Cordless Controller for Xbox (which you should definately pick up, it's incredible), I need to get a communicator for the Xbox. I am about 13 feet from the Xbox (which is why I needed the cordless controller in the first...

If you've been reading about the ABIT faulty-capacitor lawsuit, you probably know by know that the capacitors on ABIT motherboards had a nasty habit of oozing electrolytic fluid. For those of you who don't know what electrolytic fluid is and/or how it applys to electronics, here's a quick...

Help me out fellas. I need to set up my Xbox to play wirelessly, and I just got the Linksys WGA11B. It would be great, if I could get it to connect! I am not broadcasting my SSID (for some reason, when I do, all the other wireless computers in the house begin to act screwey). I do NOT have...

I NEED to go wireless, folks, in order to play Xbox Live. However, I'm having a damned hard time finding any of these things to buy. If you know of an online store (an preferably, a reputable one) that has one of the following in stock, please let me know: Microsoft MN-740 Xbox Wireless...

So, as you may know by now, I got an Xbox for Christmas, and am in the process of slugging my way through the single-player modes of Halo 2, GR2, and PGR2. I want to get on Xbox Live, but my router is way the hell downstairs. Moving it upstairs is a no-go (no cable jack available for the...

Hey kids, Got a brand new Xbox for Christmas, and I've been playing the hell out of Halo 2 (beat it, loved it), Ghost Recon 2 (tough, but hella fun), and Project Gotham Racing 2 (Kudos Points=Much Love). Anyways, I saw the Xbox High-Definition AV Kit the other day at Best Buy, and I got to...

Over Christmas (or, for the politically-correct, Holiday) Break, I'm going to be building a new machine for my aunt. She does graphic design and such things on Illustrator, Photoshop, etc., so she needs big drives, and she also needs reliability, as this is her job. So I want to put a RAID 1...

So, I'm looking at an SK43G, and I was wondering (for all ye who own one and know about it more than I do): though it supports only a 333MHz FSB, can you flash the BIOS to support a 400MHz FSB Athlon XP? thanks all cold

So, I just won a SN43G Shuttle system through TweakTown's wallpaper contest. That makes me a happy camper. :D So now I have to figure out what to put in it. The system is a VIA KT400, 333MHz FSB system. I was thinking of the following specs for a mid-range, gaming PC that'll be much...

Okay fellas, I spent Friday night at a friend's house playing teh Halo 2 and absolutely loving it. I decided that, seeing as how I think I'm the last man on earth without one, I should get an XBOX and some Live so I can kick some ass with my buddies. So I'm looking for suggestions for games to...

[H]'ers: I NEED a new keyboard. My old PS/2 Logitech (bless its heart) isn't cutting the mustard anymore. My problem with it is that I can't press more than two keys per "sector" of the keyboard (like the WASD region) without getting a nasty BLEEP from my computer's speaker. For example...

Poll Time! How are you going to get Half-Life 2? (An extension of my help me decide thread. (P.S.-Admins, if this has been done already, please nuke this. Sorry to cause trouble.)

I was wondering if you guys know of any companies that can do low quantity (like maybe two or three) screen-printed shirts for a decent price(I say decent because I know the amount you print is inversely proportional to the price). Stuff for like LAN's and Halo Tourneys. Let me know if you guys...

Hey guys, Here's the situation: I'm basically between the Bronze Steam option and the standard edition for HL2 that will be sold in stores. I already have HL, OpFor, Blue Shift, CS, etc., etc., so I don't need the HL: Source (new water... woo...). DOD: Source doesn't interest me (the original...

I haven't reached the dreaded "Cabinet 666" in Doom 3 yet, but I hear opening it really releases a bucket of shit into the fans. What happens if you open it? I can see myself (this game freaks me out) working up the courage to open it: "You can do it... you can do it... suck it up and do...

I've done some tests with timedemo 1 on Doom 3, running each test with the cache set differently (under x:\Doom3\base\DoomConfig.cfg). My system is: Intel 2.8GHz P4C (clocked at 2.9) 512 MB Corsair DDR (2x256 in Dual Channel) Albatron GeForce FX 5900 128MB (stock speed) WD Raptor 36.7GB...

This is a mid-range, 700-800 dollar machine for gaming (for my cousin... he's into RTS games and some FPS's, like Halo and Call of Duty). http://secure.newegg.com/app/shoppingcart.asp?DEPA=0&submit=view Opinions? Omissions? Additions? Would an FX 5900 be better than the 9600XT? Keep in...

I'm thinking of a system with a 3000+ (A64), 512 RAM, 80 GB HDD, 9600XT or 9800 Pro. Nothing special. Is 350 W enough? (It'll be an Antec PSU).

I'm building a mid-range gaming machine for my younger cousin. Nothing fancy, but I want it to have several good years' worth of gaming power. I'm looking at the A64 3000+ (the 754 version). Do you guys have any suggestions for motherboards for this rig?

I'm interested in building an A64 gaming rig for my cousin. I like the 939-pin Athlon 64's, but the 3500+ is a bit too expensive. Will there be any new 939's at lower clocks (and lower prices) in the near future?

My cousin just got into some serious gaming (much to his parents' chagrin, I showed him the wonders of Call of Duty and Halo... hehe). He's being crippled by his computer which packs a whopping 1.5 GHz P4A and a GeForce 4 MX (yeah, I know...). So, the kid wants a new computer, but he's got...
