RAID 0 makes no sense what-so-ever with any two drives with more than 300GB each in my opinion. There is no advantage and you have alot more to lose as in data than speed to gain. RAID 1 is even becoming of lesser importance with the availability of good mid-range RAID cards in the $300 range...

Any way you look at it the name is just pure fail. If they needed to make sure they were going to be the butt of soooo many new jokes they sure set themselves up for it. I'm gonna reserve judgement until I see what they can/cannot do in real life, but to me it seems like it is aiming for a...

We are doing alot of work behind the scenes to bring more and varied storage content for viewing and comparison sake.

To me, hacks and cracks like this serve nothing but an illegal purpose. While I am first to state that I believe that games and most software is overpriced, that fact alone does not mean we deserve it for free. I have nothing good to say about this. Again, as I have said before, hacking and...

I have used them in some really tight M-ATX spec chassis and they are nice in that application. Again, the limitation is often the amount of space allotted for the tray itself usually requiring a low profile heatsink/fan combo. For a mid tower such as the 690 II, there is so much room to work...

Another new SKYPE user here and I love it too. SOOOO glad it crosses platforms, makes it nice and easy to communicate with those Linux people, LOL! Anyhow, great info, I am attempting to get the family to switch over to this since my family is in the US and I hate calling them on the phone.

Same here, I always charge family, well except that one brother in law that HAS money to burn and he was the smart one that greases me with alot of killer freebies, lol. As for printers, they sure are from hell. Trying to get used to sharing my HP1210 on Vista/7 has been a challenge. It works...

PC gaming was dying in my eyes but then console gaming and new releases for consoles stagnated giving the PC gaming world the break it needed. Even right now, the game I am most addicted to is "TrackMania United Forever". This game does not exist outside the PC world and yet there are over 3.5...

This is a great way to make a MackBook actually worth something. All kidding aside, the MAC VS PC war is getting old. MAC's are basically PC's now with a different OS and PC's are a cheaper alternative. The argument will always rage on and each side is a defiant as the other, but noone can...

I don't see how having a removable motherboard would give this chassis any more flexibility. With the power supply being bottom mounted, there are no clearance issues when changing it or the motherboard. In fact, I have yet to even see a mainstream mid-tower WITH a removable motherboard tray...

I just noticed this and that really seems like a nice product. Having just aquired a notebook I am having a hard time explaining to my wife why it is not a laptop. This would sure make my life easier, lol.

I hated to even try to transfer to Windows 7 but with a recent addition to the familt (ASUS UL80VT laptop) that seems to run PERFECTLY and is easy to run with Windows 7, I am being quickly won over. I can definitely foresee myself switching all my machines over to 7 in the very near future as I...

Hey Guys and gals, I'm looking for something I can use to capture video on my PC from a USB 2.0 capture device. It came with Ulead 8 software but that does leave something to be desired. The machine doing the work is a Windows 7 64 bit laptop. Any suggestions? PS: My capture device is the...

Nothing but headaches for me with 7. No plans on moving to 7 on any of my personal machines but will on my Techgage machines when it is available just because they need the latest and greatest. I have no real opinion other than I will stick to Vista since it is and always has run great for me.

Not that I am aware of. I personally have had great luck with Logitech wheels. Regular cleaning and vacuuming is strongly recommended by me and this does help alot. Also, I recommend being as gentle as possible since being very aggressive with them does little to add to lap times and just...

Just wanted to be the first poster of the New Year! I hope everything you planned went well last year and that the new year brings all of you much success and happiness.

As a long time ATI fanboy, I am still not happy for this type of news. AMD has been on a free pass for the last 6 months and climbing prices for HD5xxx series cards shows this. GPU developement has been lackluster and any real major advances have been few and far between. We need more...

You misunderstand me. I realize that extreme overclocking is still a popular "sport" I am not trying to take away from that. To get the highest possible clocks does take skill. I never meant to infer otherwise. What I DO mean to infer is that the average Joe can now EASILY get a 25%...

If you ask me, there is just no real market for these niche boards beyond the 1-2% of people still left actually trying to do extreme overclocks. Intel really killed overclocking. The funny part is that they did it by making their CPU's incredibly easy to overclock. Most people are quite...

If he is a Sony guy and that receiver is close to what he has in functionality and design then you would be best off going with it. Sure there are going to be better (read more expensive) options, but I find when looking for something with the specific requirements you have, nothing beats...
