So memory? Yes? No? Not sure if 2GB would be enough.

...this would be it! I don't know why but I think this is awesome except for the fact that when your video card dies out of warranty or you need to get a new one simply due to lacking performance you are on the hook to buy a new NIC or go back to onboard.

Funny you should mention that, Rob. A few of us were brainstorming ideas on how to get that to fly. Either that or a BS IP address to fool it into thinking we're in the US. :p

After reading this article a few of us started talking about the Roku setup, which lead to the channels that are available. While the NHL channel is drool worthy to me they mentioned that here in Canada we cannot get Hulu yet and Netflix Canada content is drastically different (aka suckier)...

I guess it has already been downloaded 7 million times so it certainly is popular enough to warrant bringing it to consoles.

*fingers crosses* RMA's are always such a pain in the butt. The wait to get your gear back is murder!

My advice to you - run several virus scans on the 500GB drive. Ideally you'd want to completely reformat the drive but I'm sure there are files on there that you want to save so that may not be an option. If the scans come up clean you can then look at this as being a hardware issue of some...

When I mentioned chip creep it was because as soon as you turn on your system it starts to make heat, which causes your components to expand and shift every so slightly. When you shut it down they contract and shift again. Over time this could cause one of them to not be seated correctly...

That board in that case is going to be like a 5 foot person in a king size bed - floatin'! It seems like an OK board to me for a temporary setup. I haven't had any problems with anything that I have owned from Asus.

The 800D is just too big both in size and in price but looks like a tech geeks wet dream to work in. The 600T is mighty sweet but still a bit pricey and not at all what Doomsday is looking for.

Good point. I suppose you could always use EVGA's Precision to bring the frequencies back in line with the reference cards. Let's be honest though, the performance gains between reference boards and factory overclocks are usually very small. It's not until you put the card in the hands of a...

Boo! The Naked gun movies were almost pee my pants funny. It's a sad day.

The first troubleshooting step with any problems booting up should be to clear the CMOS to reset everything back to factory defaults. If that doesn't work it's not a bad idea to reseat all of your components (memory, video card, power connections, etc). While they may not be the issue it...

I'd go 1155 if it meant I didn't have to upgrade my chip. It's like Intel is trying to be the polar opposite of AMD in every way including backwards compatibility. Unless I fall into a pile of 1155 motherboards and chips I'll be at 1156 for a while yet. Maybe I'll jump up to a better...

I had my motherboard up and die after 3 months and I swore it was the generic PSU but I had a friend test it and it seemed to be working fine. It was from the early days of ASRock when their quality was pretty bad. Are there any domed capacitors or any physical damage on your motherboard...

Nice TD. I was curious about these but to see them applied to a case was a treat. I have no use for them now and really don't care if my case is flashy but that may change when my Lian Li PC-P50WB shows up. While it would make no sense it would be neat to see a red and green Christmas edition...

*sticks his head in* i3 530 @ 4.2Ghz = i5 750 @ stock! Just kidding. It's not just the i7 CPU that will cost you money, Doomsday. The motherboards are generally more expensive and if you're like me you would -need- to have a triple channel memory kit. Your new rig will be a screamer for...

Can we impeach Steve Jobs?

If you want to play then hell yes, they should be allowed. I'm all preserving gamer's rights when it comes to companies stomping on the people who pay their salaries but it has been my experience that about 90% of the time the person, not the company is the one being a douche bag.

Agreed. I have been eyeballing Burnout Paradise for a while but have had to put a leash on myself because I know I just wouldn't have the time to play.
