    GIGABYTE Urges X79 Users to Update to 'F7' BIOS in Light of Issues

    Well its good that they are taking care of their users in this mess. But I have been avoiding Gigabyte to be honest. Not that there is too many places to go its all about the same deal anywhere.

    Intel to Make Thunderbolt Available for the PC in April

    See Marfig that was my thought when I saw your post. Do you really think of a mouse when thunderbolt is brought up for discussion? USB 2.0 is tapped out for some things people actually use it for. Unfortunately alot of the more common devices we wish would make use of its maximum bandwidth...

    Customer Reviews Mock $1,000 AudioQuest HDMI Cable

    Thats awesome lol. Bottom line if the cable meets the HDMI spec its advertised or used for the image will be 100% the same as it would otherwise. Welcome to digital transmission. It either works, sorta works, or doesn't work at all. Not much in between, guess you can thank the analog era for...

    AMD Announces Radeon HD 7970; Promises to be Faster than HD 6970

    Huge incentive to use 3.0 though for multi GPU. x8 3.0 = x16 2.0 You no longer have to worry about crossfire/sli performance and everyone is ready to overlook that. They mention it in the article but most people rather just point out what we already knew.

    Why Hasn't Safari Achieved Chrome-like Success?

    First thing I noticed about Safari when it came out on windows is text did not render the same between it and any other browser out there. I really haven't messed with chrome but at the time why would anyone want to view the web the way it was NOT meant to be seen. Frustrated me since at the...

    Phone Tripod mount for Video Blogging? Look no further.

    Unfortunately. Shooting with the Galaxy S2 has been a mixed bag. Even with 700 watts worth of light provided by CFL's it just seems like not enough (400 direct with reflectors and 300 ambient off the ceiling. Ive been wanting to use 105 watt (400 watt equiv) bulbs but they are 25 bucks a...

    Moving Your 'Non-Movable' Android Apps to an SD Card

    Good stuff. I keep reading people crying about Adobe Flash being advertised as 4MB and it really being 12 and then the real crying begins. The Galaxy S2 having 2GB of space for this and the remaining portion of the 16GB to usb storage i have yet to see how I will complain. That said where the...

    Phone Tripod mount for Video Blogging? Look no further.

    Well I did not notice it day 1, but I've just noticed one little problem. Rubber is actually compatible with capacitive touch screens and if you have to use it over the phone screen it can be an issue. Tiny piece of tissue fixes it but what an awesome flaw.....adding this to my write up now...

    Well some fool just shot an entire feature film with a Nokia N8 so.... lol They had a camera lens modified by removing some elements and then disabling the Nokia's ability to autofocus. Film is called Olive. According to the scale we measure our cocaine with it's 40.12 grams :p so 1.41...

    Amazon, B&N Issue Firmware to Make Their Tablets Less Desirable

    Wasn't an intended feature on Amazon's part and not sure on B&N. They as a company end up paying for other peoples mistakes. Rooting the device and then bricking it at some point or software causing piracy or other issues. You have to look at it from the stand point of running a business...

    next build around X79 + FT02B + 540mm RAD

    Yeah that looks good. On first glance you probably wouldn't know where the rad is if it wasn't for the 120. It shouldn't be needed but some people like to separate the cpu and gpu cooling. Id like to water cool my GTX 570 so i could fold without worrying. I run it undervolted (.850) at...

    Phone Tripod mount for Video Blogging? Look no further.

    So the photography was a tiny bit better today. Still a bit rushed as usual but the main challenge was balancing between getting a white background and not blowing out the shiny portions of the bracket. Rather than buy a 100 dollar pocket camera to record my videos I wanted to give my...

    Logitech Wireless Keyboard K360 Review

    I was just thinking I had not seen a wireless chiclet keyboard since.... well 1983. Came up because my step mother spilled wine all over her laptop and I loaned her my G50VT. Her first complaint was the older style keyboard my laptop has. Does this 3 years include using the off switch...

    My first day with the Galaxy SII, Living with Android.

    That particular shot is just ambient light hand held. In shooting i played between iso 100-200 with center weighted metering putting the shutter speed in a usable 1/50 to 1/80. The other way to do a better shot might be to front curtain sync the flash and do a timed exposure to expose the...
