    Mini ITX HP Slimline Case

    I was wondering if anyone would like this case, I have no use for it so its just going to sit here in the attic till I throw it out or tear out what I want off it. The case has 2 front USB 2.0 ports a built-in card reader, and a headphone jack. It takes a full size CD/DVD drive and a full size...

    Windows 7 Libraries and Network Folders

    Meh, I haven't really had any problems with win 7 and sharing except when WL Sign in assistant gets installed then it kills my streaming to my orig Xbox. BTW the tip posted seems like a solution to a backwards problem.... If its an external drive on another PC why not have that PC share it? If...

    I need some networking suggestions...

    Wow, overkill on the NIC much? Hahaha I like it tho. I think I need a new router (or two, sometimes my net is just so fuzzy and has so many problems I wanna replace both) I am also thinking of wireless but I have a 1st gen Xbox downstairs that needs a hookup as well as a PC.

    Nvidia Really Is Selling "Their Own" Cards

    Hmmm that SA linky actually made sense >.< seems we may be seeing more red soon but then what happens? Will we still see massive increases in performance from gen to gen?? Would it be better if Intel bought Nvidia and resurrected it and had Nvidia/Intel CPUs, like AMD is doing with its "APUs"?

    Won a Gigabyte P55A UD7

    I also say AMD for the fact that when they release the next processors they will be AM3r or something, essentially like AM2+ and AM2 meaning you can get AM3 stuff now and then later upgrade. Personally I hate Intel's upgrade options.

    Help!! I Need a New Laptop (Seriously I do)

    My old laptop is a P4 2.8 Ghz 768 Mb Ram 60 Gb 5400 RPM IDE Hdd with BS intel graphics. I am looking for something around $500 - $800 max. It doesn't need to be a gaming beast that's what my desktop is for. It needs to be a decent performer and preferably be closer to the $500 mark, absolutely...

    Won a Gigabyte P55A UD7

    If you don't have a massive budget go AMD, my 955 BE is insane along with my 5750 OCed I can run most things maxed out. Like for example DiRT 2 and COD: MW2 everything else I play is pretty maxed out too and I get 60 FPS in most games at 1080p max settings and I have much more ram then I need...

    Would You Pay $30 for a New Release Movie?

    Ha, that's funny, $30 for a rental, I can hardly justify the $5 rentals fees at blockbuster. Thats mostly why I download movies and go see ones I really want to in theater, I can't afford it. Not as a student anyways, same with music unfortunately. I wish I had money to go buy music and movies...

    Specs for AMD's Radeon HD 6750 and HD 6770 Leaked

    No real clues though, the pricing is just leaks or speculation, probably not real so they could be cheaper but who knows.

    AMD to Modify its Radeon HD 6000 Naming Scheme?

    I don't think they will be changing the naming system and I do believe they are going to release not one but 2 dual GPU parts. Supposedly the regular 6970 is supposed to eat 330 watts and the eyefinity 8 edition is 335 but also has slightly higher fill rates.

    Sony's PlayStation 3 Seeing Hacks En Masse

    Personally I am glad to have an Xbox haahhaha Sony is just crazy, back with the PS2/Xbox they were forcing mod-chip sites down and suing the owners going crazy with it then with the PS3/Xbox 360 they were letting you put Linux on it, M$ was banning people left and right and now it seems to have...

    Building New Gaming Rig

    WAIT!!!!! I would say wait atleast till the 6870 (two months away SUPPOSEDLY) comes out so you could get the 5870 a bit cheaper or maybe the 6870 which should beast all over the 480 and possibly even the 5970 :eek: Other than that 8 Gb of ram is good unless you do lots of Photoshop or video...
