You know there's a problem when the bugs and glitches are more amusing and fun than the games themselves. There have been moments in games where I wish I was recording, just for replay value. In Soul Calibur III, there was a brilliant moment when I was using Nightmare against Taki, used the low...

Here's a few more modern ones that are absolutely brilliant. It's not AVGN, but hey, glitches are funny. Part One <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BhqhPQt1Lh8&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen"...

Devices turning themselves off is usually the result of power-save functions, be it at the OS level or device level. Check the windows power options to see if you have a timer on 'Turn off hard disks:'. Also, the driver may have its own power-save functions, so you may need to dig around in its...

Nice. That's some lightning quick load times there. Your combat skills are ace as well, I guess all those hours of benchmarking really help, I mean, the whole thing was like a blur. And that server, not one hiccup, at least that I could detect during gameplay. Awesomeness...

For a better understanding, need a bit more info... What specific Intel i3 CPU do you have, model and speed? What speed/model memory? Is the HD 5450 the 512MB or 1GB model? After a couple assumptions, the short of it will probably be no. The 5450 will struggle with medium settings over...

Malware tends to be pretty smart and there’s a good chance that there wouldn’t be anything to uninstall, and even if there was, it would be superfluous. Would you really want to announce how to remove your product? The same for a rollback, malware tends to infect the restore files as well, so...

"I was a little sloppy out of the blocks, but I was able to hold on," "It wasn't bad, but I was a little fatigued toward the end," It's just so wrong on so many levels, lol. I'm surprised they let them run with it... oh well.

I don’t know many people (if any) that buy an Nvidia GPU solely for the purpose of PhysX acceleration, mainly because very few games actually support it. Most examples of games supporting PhysX are through tech demos, single level add-ons and a couple snazzy effects, hardly game changing. The...

I’d have to agree…. Very strongly, this is a very bad move. At least with facebook and the like you can hide your real name (or not sign up), this is just opening up a whole new level of abuse. It is frighteningly easy to find out where someone lives with just a name… if you are eligible to...

Take your existing fan and mount it above to pull air through, since the gap is so tight you're restricting airflow. A 90 degree rotation will only change the airflow, but it might also be beneficial, since it appears you do not have an exhaust at the top of the case and are solely relying on...

GPU: What’s small, blue and weighs 2oz? MB: No idea GPU: You! Muhahaha... ---- GPU: Ewwww, I think I stepped in something MB: Ewwww... GPU: Oh wait, it’s you, muhahaha... ---- MB: OMG, OMG, OMG GPU: What , WHAT! MB: Something big, black, loud and hungry landed on me, omg omg omg...

Just look at the Mobile Phone market, they started the switch over to USB charging (though some still have the USB connector attached to some random pin configuration). Look at the figures and it’s scary, over a billion people get a new phone each year, how many of them would need a separate...

Actually, it’s to do with the sites as well. For me, photobucket can cause me to reboot through firefox, no warning or event log entry, just a *poof* and I’m posting again. Chrome, IE, it doesn’t happen. Some versions of Firefox it’s completely stable, other times it’s very unstable. If I come...

I find it kind of weird that you’ve had the tabs on the bottom. Every time I install Firefox, they’ve always been on top, from version 1.0 and up, they’ve never been on the bottom for me, never even seen the option for them to be on the base. As for the switch from FireFox to Chrome, it’s a...

People have been able to use PayPal without an account for quite a while. With online retail transactions, you could opt to use PayPal and enter credit-card details to make the transaction without having to open up a PayPal account. A system I have used many times. The difference here is that...

The switch to pure PCI-E will only work if they provide full 8x or 16x lane card slots, none of those silly 1x slots. A 1x slot only just provides the bandwidth for a single USB3 port, sure, they're enough for a gigabit NIC or an audio card, but most people just use the onboard audio and NIC, so...

Add mods into the equation, and you can have 30-40GB games. Worse still, most of these games are actually compressed already when on the hard drive, they need further decompression at run time (hence the insane load times on some titles). Then the icing on the cake is as Altrus says...

Another that stands the test of time for me and many others, one which nearly all space strategy games are compared to, Master of Orion 2 (MOO2), even over a decade later, i still play it, it's also one of the few games that will run natively in all OS's from DOS to 95, 98, NT, 2000, ME, and XP...

Typically, as a rule, never buy Used or Refurbished hardware.... you don't know whats wrong (or was wrong) with it and you no longer have a full warranty in case something does go wrong. I've been burnt by that before. Unless you can buy 2 or 3 for the same price as a new one, it's not worth the...

The card has two SF-1200 controllers in RAID 0, hence the silly numbers in read/write, and because of the RAID, you loose TRIM support. The fact it’s bootable is nice and highly desirable, somewhat unexpected as well, the deal breakers are the internal RAID (and we all know what happens when...
