When NVIDIA launched its GeForce.com website last fall, I wasn't sure what to expect of it. I had assumed it'd compete with AMD's very similar Game.AMD.com, but the two have come to be nothing alike. Whereas AMD's site is more for keeping up-to-date on Radeon happenings, NVIDIA has gone the...

It might not be ground-breaking, but this past weekend comedian Louis C.K. released his latest show, Live at the Beacon Theatre, through his website for a mere $5 USD. This low-cost is attributed to the fact that Louis cut out the middleman and paid for the production himself. Further, he chose...

This is too good of a deal to ignore if you are an Android user. Google is offering 10 different Android apps each day for 10 days at $0.10 a piece: https://market.android.com/details?id=apps_timed_promotion&feature=banner Some of these deals are insane. Some games are regularly $5 or more!

Antec is known for making a variety of quality cases to suit different needs, with its Sonata family aiming to deliver clean styling, functionality and silence all in one. The SOLO II becomes the latest entry to that family, and in some ways, it's very different than other silent cases on the...

Microsoft a few days ago held an event in San Francisco showing off its 'Windows Store', and while the goal was to convince developers to get on with what they do best, us non-dev folk can still see what the store is going to offer once Windows 8 launches. At the same event, a spokesperson also...

Like most gamers, no one here at Techgage is a fan of DRM - at least, DRM that worsens the experience for those who actually purchase the software, game and et cetera. We've talked in great deal about DRM in the past, as a simple search on our site will prove, and to date, there hasn't been much...

I'm not sure how I missed this, but a couple of weeks ago, tech site CPU-World posted a leaked chart of upcoming Ivy Bridge CPUS - that is, the 22nm successor to Sandy Bridge. Aside from the architecture enhancements that we'd expect, it seems that there will be an Ivy Bridge model to properly...

What they say about the relentless pace of technology is true, as if it was ever in doubt to begin with. IMFT, the joint venture between Intel Corp and Micron Technology, has today unveiled two notable advances in NAND flash technology - an announcement with two major parts. Read the rest...

AMD's Bulldozer launch was met with much criticism as its FX processors didn't manage to perform that much better than their predecessors, much-less become better competition for Intel. Post-launch, AMD has done its share of trying to mend the lackluster launch, stating that the CPUs are more...

One of the most talked about pieces of tech this season is Siri, the voice recognition system that Apple included on its iPhone 4S.

Dell has long been considered a good choice for those just looking to get setup with a desktop or notebook and want good customer service behind it, but as far as the company's other products go (aside from monitors), reception has often been lukewarm. And in some cases, the company has been...

We're in the midst of the 'Ultrabook' fad, and next up, it's LG getting in on the action with its X-Note Z330. This is one of the best-looking Ultrabooks I've seen to date, with a brushed aluminum finish on top that makes it looks both rugged and beautiful at the same time. It weighs in at just...

Steam has become famous for offering some of the best game deals around, but this holiday season, GOG.com wants to make sure its name gets recognized as well by offering much of the same. What's being planned is quite impressive, so if you're a fan of gaming classics, then you'd do well to pay...

It's been a while since we last took a look at a Crucial product, so for the next one, how about we make it interesting? SSDs aren't uncommon, but high-end SSDs that don't feature a SandForce controller are - and of course, that's what makes Crucial's m4 notable. Does its lack of a SandForce...

Overclocking world records are broken so often, that normally I don't even read into what the accomplishment was when I'm sent an e-mail - it'll just be broken next week, after all. But the latest accomplishment of Vince "k|ngp|n" Lucido isn't just impressive because of the overclock, but...

Hot on the heels of its last mega-sale, Valve is treating its faithful users to even more deals throughout the month of December. It's also wrapping a bit of a contest into the mix, involving user wishlists. To enter, you need to make sure that you have at least 10 games in your Steam wishlist...

It's been a while since I last took Linux Mint for a spin, so with the much-hyped 12 having just been released, how could I put off taking another look at it any longer? This release is arguably the most interesting in Mint's history, as it integrates GNOME 3 like no other distro has. In...
