    Is NVIDIA's GF100 Broken and Unfixable?

    Thanks for clearing it up, I guess AMD isn't the major share owner now of GF? From what I read TSMC only has problems with their 40nm while they have 32nm and 28nm processes worked out so Nvidia might not need to switch down the line.

    NVIDIA's Optimus Looks to Gain Steam, Support from Apple

    ^AMD has their Fusion coming out which although is much better than Intel's IGP probably won't have the power saving advantages that Optimus offers. Nvidia left a bad taste in my mouth with their overheating mobile GPUs though, but on a smaller process + igp switching + better design the...

    Adobe Patches Security Hole in Product that Shouldn't Exist

    That's why I use an alternative PDF reader to Adobe's. What they have is bloated, slow and that damn download manager keeps on popping up.

    Is NVIDIA's GF100 Broken and Unfixable?

    I wonder if it will ever come to Nvidia ditching TSMC and using AMD/Global Foundries instead for their 28nm step. lol. Interesting scenario for AMD to be producing the rival's chips.

    Top 10 Most Expensive Game Development Costs

    yeah, even "low-tech" games like Plants Vs Zombies and Machinarium/Samorost make huge splashes these days because they offer an alternative playstyle that the big budget gaming doesn't provide.

    Official: First NVIDIA Fermi Cards are GTX 470, GTX 480

    I would be excited about getting a 5870 now if it had 3D vision. :p As it is, all my feelings of hype about it have waned down now compared to 6 months ago that I have read all there is to be discussed and seen all the benches that are to be marked (is that even a proper phrase?). Until ATI...

    NZXT Hades Crafted Series Mid-Tower

    Yeah NZXT cases tend to have the motherboard sit a little to high. I built a system for somebody that used the tempest evo iirc and it was the same problem. Awesome cases for their price though. I love that cable routing thing that the Hades has ala Corsair 800D.

    Official: First NVIDIA Fermi Cards are GTX 470, GTX 480

    I've always thought rumours and gossiping are for women in hair salons but the last few months reading all these sites have nothing but endless cycle of "remember that rumour we posted last time that we tried to pass off as news? well here's another rumour that we're using as proof for our other...

    Microsoft Demos Augmented-Reality Maps at TED

    I've always thought the possibility of "1984" happening is very slim. But after seeing the things people put on YouTube, MySpace, Twitter, etc. We are doing to ourselves without any help from any Big Brothers.

    Battlefield Bad Company 2

    Well its the best time to get a headstart getting used to the game and finding which weapons/strategies work. Suicide C4s seem to work really well in this game.

    Spam someone's email?

    I think posting your email publicly in the open anywhere now pretty much guarantees that. lol. That will never work though since those things get filtered automatically. Just sign him up for some gay porn or some weird fetish porn mailing list.

    Battlefield Bad Company 2

    It's in closed beta right now. I just got beta keys and downloading it (yay!). I have never played any of the previous Battlefield games before so this could take some getting used to. I saw the video of the multiplayer rush mode and I was amazed. Anyone else playing the beta? EDIT: holy...

    Legal DVD's vs. Pirated DVD's

    lol so true. I wish companies won't treat paying customers like criminals sometimes. Ugh, like this net connection DRM thing for single player Assassin's Creed 2.

    Is this motherboard shot?

    That sounds like it leaves only the monitor as the problem then.

    Fan question

    It will run as fast as it can depending on the voltage being fed to it.

    Need heatsink recommendation for DX58SO + Tall RAM

    How about a 90 degree setup with only 1 fan pushing on the bottom upwards toward the ram? (I must admit the RAM will still block the some of the air but that's better than nothing) The IOH cooler might get blocked on the right but I could just replace that with an aftermarket fan anyway since...

    Good deal on a new monitor?

    Here's another good monitor for under $200 (pricebat.ca lists the lowest price at $179) Samsung 2343BWX. It does 2048x1152 for a 23 incher! Also has higher pixel density than the T220 at 7million vs 5million.
